Re: Building with my Sons

Got some time with my 7 year old on his rc10t. He previous built the front end and today he built the rear arms , bulkhead and shock towers. IMG_6240.jpeg I did the tie rod’s and ball cups since they were a pain. He’s still a bit young so this was all the attention he had for it today. I am constant...

Re: Back In My Day ..................

My main back in my day thing was riding my bike everywhere. Miles from my house, no helmet or reflectors. Especially to vhs rental places to get horror movies. Oh, and buying throwing stars from Cutlery World in the mall at 12. :mrgreen:

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

Three Peak Performance motors from Ed (Frankentruck). Two 13x2s for an ongoing project, and an 11x4 for the AE dragster. Should be perfect matches all around! The 11Q looks right at home. Also got in a bunch of Tami Hauler plastics from everyone's friend nitro-master.

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Getting my Trackmaster Beltbox 🤔 ready for a build. I really wanted to put a slipper or hydradrive on it but the top shaft is really short. If I knew where I could get a top shaft belt sprocket, I would build a new top shaft. But for now it will just have a slipper eliminator. It does run really smo...

I like both the dedication to NiCd and to Dean's 4 pin connectors. 👍

Okay, I have to ask.

Why teardown assembled packs instead of starting with individual cells?

Re: Back In My Day ..................

1.png We actually did have a "smoker's corner", until they decided that minors shouldn't be smoking and banned it. We also had an open parking lot, until they decided that they needed to chain the driveway to keep kids from leaving, that is when I started parking on the street so I could ...

The RC10 4wd

I only know that this was sent to me, no way to validate it.

If it's real, I would have to think it's the MIP project that will be tied to AE. I can't imagine both MIP and AE are working on the same thing.

Re: Back In My Day ..................

At 50, I can honestly say that I never used an 8-track player. My parent's stereo had 8-track, and I think there were a half dozen or so tapes sitting around, but I can't say I ever heard them play. I don't recall having a rotary phone in the house, although I am sure we did when I was young. I do r...

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

Got in my OG RC10DS converted car. I love the idea of the conversion kit because you can stick it on whatever chassis you want to and it is proper. And in this strange time that we find ourselves in right now, I can go order a new 3-piece chassis pan kit, proper wheels and tires, shocks, and a body ...

Re: Back In My Day ..................

I would enjoy a jukebox and a game room with the various consoles for the games I like or am interested in. Unfortunately, I pretty much need one of every console ever made to play the one game on each of those systems I like, so there's that. :roll: :lol: While I do like arcade machines, and they ...

Re: Bored? Come To The Chit / Chat Thread

This little JG gem has been on FBMP for quite some time, and I have quickly looked at it multiple times, but just figured it was a graphite RC10 with a JG MT conversion on it, and for the price, wasn't worth it to me. But this morning, I looked at it a bit closer, and noticed that not a lot of it ac...
