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

More track progress. The pictures were taken from the roof. The driver's stand when built will be a lot closer. The good news is when driving you face South. No sun in your face at any time. The straight and berm are 3.5 metres wide. The track narrows after the berm to 3 metres wide until the main s...

If the shaft is messed up from a pinion screw eating into it you might have trouble getting the bearing past it, so you may end up filing the shaft slightly. Just to add a little to this... I've spun the armature while holding the end of the shaft with very fine sand paper (very little at a time) t...

I didn't realize until a few days ago that the ClodTalk domain name wasn't working. :? I don't know how long it's been that way for but definitely a while. I fixed that, and gave its forum its own red Clod inspired theme and branding. It needed a little bit of extra separation from the rest of the b...

Well, I can scratch the B&R stocker off my list. Just a couple more stock motors to go and I'll be satisfied with my collection. For now...

Not my picture (my wide screen couldn't go anywhere near getting it all in), but this is a picture from the first day of this weekend's Vintage Bash in Knox, Australia. Official count is 505 cars.... made it all the way around the track!

Day one out of the way.... two more days to go!

Helluva’ box

My friend's Futaba MC210CB esc in his black pan team car crapped itself, so I found this much upgraded Hitec SP-520 esc for it's replacement.

Okay a couple 15 minutes later…

My most wild creation yet trying to utilize modern (available) drivetrain (Exotek DR10M 3 gear all metal transmission) and front mount servo setup (drag specific) for the ultimate is front weight bias. Picked up the final piece of the puzzle thanks to Andy Jacobson slinging some classic styling on t...

My sons T2.4

New built T2, slightly modernized for vintage racing. My son started vintage racing with a truck I built and sold BITD and he wanted to run more than one class so we built this. It's scary fast for what it is
