It's 1984 Xmas morning in Nov 2023!

Well I accidentally rediscovered RC10 after almost 40 years. I was never lucky enough to get one back when then but man did I beg!

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Went to my almost local hobby shop this morning, to fetch a kit, and put my Nichimo Spirit FF on display with a few printed parts in a dedicated shelf, with a pdf printed on a side with a QR code to display my Cults3D page... https://i.imgur.com/W33NiWp.jpg This hobby shop is really dedicated to vin...

I have a period correct Trinity modified, a period correct Novak NER2S receiver for G plug connectors, and a G plug S32 steering servo. I have a gold label Mospower ESC, but with a J plug connector. I ...

I still have a 6-gear, gold pan RC10 with a truck conversion that I never let go of. Looking forward to adding some other int...
