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

Alright, everyone, this is it. Woke up this morning motivated to get the body done. This is a body I had on another car, so it isn't perfect, but the paint was close enough to the box art/Matt Francis design, that It was worth putting on this ride. I removed the stickers that weren't correct, and be...

Can't say no to a NOS Twister - the first aftermarket motor I ever bought. I still remember being in the living room breaking it in with a pair of D batteries in a radio shack battery holder, likely burning some spots in the end table from soldering.

A friend that's getting rid of his RC stuff sent me a pile of vintage stickers. Stickers are my favorite way to fix my paint jobs! :lol: . 1000015309.jpg Ahh... can never have enough Novak stickers. And those Revtech ones are nice. I got these ones the other day, does anyone know about what time pe...

Nice Procat! Some did this chassis mod to the Procat and XLS saddle pack to lower the COG. This was of course not a theme as long as one drove the stick pack chassis. Looks like a mix of parts with transmission plates from XL/XLS, older screws etc. Procat rear wishbone bracket. The one way shafts (...

Good point, but I´m happy with what it is now. Going on adapting the body.

its the easiest, but far from the best! (definitely dont do this )

Losi Strike or Desert Truck. XXXT based. LOSB0102.

Soldered some new wires onto a Trinity Monster Tri Rotor motor. Anyone know how many turns one of these is? Gotta be pretty low turns, its absolutely savage in my king cab. Power delivery is just instant and theres torque for days. But, it also seems to make everything overheat, and I dont really kn...

I was supposed to finish the berm, but got sidetracked by building the tabletop jump which was finished today. Kyosho Optima for size reference.

It appears Jake misread the thread topic. I don't see anything Tekin on the build above ^ :wink: I have a new Tekin truck kit and a bag of new hop-ups to complete it. I may start a build thread later on. No misreading bud just throwing it out there that you can still do a mid T if wanted Tekin or n...

Ah the good old days, when ammo was cheaper than fuses

Amain was (is?) closing out some toy grade stuff, took a gamble on them since they didn't have much for pics or reviews. This entire lot was under $100, and while shipping wasn't free I did make another purchase that qualified so the entire lot shipped for free. Pretty impressed with the quality for...

When disassembling the diff of my RC10 team car, I dropped ONE of the diff balls and watched it hit the tip of my shoe. And what do ya know, it immediately vanished into thin air the moment it hit my shoe and is nowhere to be found. Guarantee it'll show up in a few months to a year. Good news is, I ...
