Re: Frankenshorty RC10 buggies - #2: The Stubbie Tub

It turned out pretty nice so I thought it should have a storage box too. I took photos of one of my nicer boxes and resized them for the graphics. 5de0e2e8-c4c1-4ee6-919a-4631dc804dc2-1_all_52519.jpg 5de0e2e8-c4c1-4ee6-919a-4631dc804dc2-1_all_52520.jpg 5de0e2e8-c4c1-4ee6-919a-4631dc804dc2-1_all_5252...

Re: Frankenshorty RC10 buggies - #2: The Stubbie Tub

This is awesome! Was going to say, I know you could squeeze a mini or micro battery in there! So how does it run? Gotta be a wheelie monster! I haven't gotten to run this one yet but Frankenshorty #1 is quite a wheelie monster, so I expect this will be too. :lol: https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic....

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Also, do you have any tips for mending the chassis? There are some bends in the rear bumper and motor plate, and I've been using a vice to get most of it out. It has been working, but it has creased in some areas. Is there a new, better way to do it? If the chassis and motor plate are bad off, repl...

Re: The retro-not-real Turbo Ultima build

That turned out really nice! The Turbo Ultima box art has always been one of my favorites. That body has an awesome shape.

Re: how do I know the capacitators are ok?

Motor has been cleaned up, decapitated :lol: and put away. The capacitors are in my pile of unused capacitors.

Re: ** Build of the Month Contest - February 2025 ** - Winner - 1300GT

Looks like the 11th entry got chopped. Hopefully he brings it back for submission next month.

Noony, you're allowed 2 pics if you want to add another.

Re: ** Build of the Month Contest - February 2025 ** - Winner - 1300GT

1300GT and Frankentruck why are you in the same month :( ! That Coyote build is very impressive. Just sayin' And I like the rims on the Tamiya :twisted: If he parks it outside overnight and finds it in the morning on some 1/10 scale cinder blocks with the wheels gone.... well, he might have someone...

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

I know this isn't exactly a Nuclear Assault motor :lol: but I have a small collection of M&Y motors and I've never seen an adjustable timing, ball bearing, rebuildable closed-ish endbell motor (big ports in the sides). It checked the weirdo boxes for me. I had to replace the brushes and wires to...

Re: RC10Talk - Celebrating 19 Years!

someone owns this domain and then presumably he makes money from ad revenue like everything else? Do moderators make money on this like YouTube chat? Figure this is a "safe" place to ask my clueless question :lol: I don't think there's any money being made here, just trying to bring in en...

That would be great! I am trying to figure out how to get private messages to work. I appreciate it! Your profile, then board preferences! He has the new member private messages restriction.

I think noony's RC10 would be a great candidate for a Ten4 conversion. If only he had one.... 🤔

Re: ** Build of the Month Contest - February 2025 ** - Winner - 1300GT

Always feel a bit outclassed when I do a BOTM. Lots of good entries! I'm not a big Losi guy, but I really really really liked your NRC-24 entered last November. I hope my build comes out close to that nice... when I get around to it someday. :lol: The Pro SE is a very nice build though and sounds l...
