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

Today starts my take on the box art Rc10gt. I don't want it to match 100%, but have it more of a one off copy GT that means more to me As I raced back in the day longside the box art version days. Racer was a huge fan, but lived states away had similar pipes used and electronics. That racer fan &quo...

That's a really nice early CE survivor... you may consider piecing together another one and and save those really nice white arms etc and the chassis and nose plate.. you can easily find black arms and a not so pretty chassis to use for vintage racing... Just my 2cents..either way very cool, enjoy!

Ultima, the nemesis of the RC10! 😁 I've considered one of those. It would be tempting to mod it to being a flat pan chassis, but as is that should be a fine platform for vintage racing. If the temptation to run that RC10 is too great, I have a shelf it can park on. It would occasionally send photos ...

Besides paint my I can consider this one wrapped up. Turned out one of my clunkers had a pretty decent set of tires on it so I stole them. 28994CC7-0084-4A21-BFA8-D7C1C644B740.jpeg 3B97B9D3-90BC-481C-94BB-75158F456FD8.jpeg 5F8EB766-2333-4102-B7E0-BB783E0992C3.jpeg A1F89A47-3856-4CB0-A66F-4861E90AA92...

nice one mate, i commented in the other thread about how to fit 2.2 inch wheels to an ultima, I have done a very similar thing as you, but i used Optima parts, which adds 5 degrees of caster which i found helped the buggy turn a lot better and widens the front end and i had to do the same as you and...

Thanks to both above replies. I have added this Factory Works top plate. The material is different to the chassis, and more glossy. I very lightly sanded it and blacked the edges to try to make it match better. Making clearance for the servo arm with the top plate in place is challenging. I had to u...

The donor car came with this painted body. It's quite nice, but unfortunately not my favorite colors. I will be painting up a new body for it. I added the new Penguin wing.

Looks great.

Looks cool! Love these kinda of projects.

Still waiting on parts for the build. Painted shell and wing first for a change.

So now I have seen a Bandit front end on an Ultima and RC10 here. SInce Bandit came out in 1994, it's vintage as far as I am concerned. I am building a carbon fiber chassis Bandit right now with the new 272R transmission. Nothing on it would not bolt backwards onto an OG 1994 Bandit. I digress. You ...

There was no name assigned as it was never completed. I just offered to cut him the parts as shown and he will sort the hardware and such.

The body turned out pretty nice for a runner. I procrastinated for a few weeks, then I just winged it one evening and did it in around four hours. The only thing bothering me is that I overdid the shading around the windshield. I tried to find the right shade of red, but couldn’t get any info about ...
