RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Here's my LX-T that I raced on carpet ovals as a kid. It's close to how it was back then, except for the .36" shocks and yellow motor plate. I ran A&L Roadkill & BTS Liberator, Dahm's Ruff- E-Nuff SE and Andy's Lo Profile bodies. I had Trinity Pushed 1400's but the Point Blank labels fi...

Not today, but the two previous ones, there was a vintage event with onroad focus with a very nice big track adapted up to big scale rc cars (if you want to have a look to the track, here is the site of the club : http://www.camm71.fr/)... Went there with both my son and my daughter on Saturday. I d...

Got a sweet batch of motors from a factory backed dirt oval racer! All the bagged motors were factory rebuilt in 1990, ready to race.

Went down to Draper, Utah for the Salt City Clash no prep drag race where one of our team members won the whole dang thing! $8100 cash. Super fun day!

Cut, painted and fitted a Penguin RC undertray and wing to the Optima.

Throwing in my wild child 10L with Novak SS5300 motor. It needs better gripping tires. At part throttle and 25mph, grabbing full throttle causes the tires to break loose resulting in an immediate 'reversal of fortunes'. I probably need to find a longer running area so I can creep it up to a higher s...

So this bad boy got sent off to motor guru Glyn Ward for a full strip and rebuild. He skimmed the comm for starters and checked the magnets. The magnets were spot on, and he told me he expected this to be the case as they are early sintered ferrite and obviously not the later wet magnet version. The...

Here are higher-quality pictures from RC magazine for Yokomo Super Dog Fighter fans with more detailed google translations. Enjoy! I'm happy my local library subscribes to this magazine
What suggestions do you have for their possible reissue? Maybe they will consider our feedback...

Noticed not to many bolinks on here lol on the rc10talk. Thought I would share one I recently built from a new kit. Tried to use period correct for most.

Here are a couple more actually still runs awesome compared to today's standards.

Got a cool gyroscopic power driver a few weeks ago and finally bought some nice hex bits to make it useful. It's a bit annoying though that MIP didn't actually label the bits, but instead just included label stickers and clear shrink wrap to go over the labels. . PXL_20230704_210905216.jpg . Screens...
