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

I feel like I get plenty of quality RC without doing the book face thing.

what you guys like is your business. Enough of facebook or YouTube debate. They both got its perks and its got its downfalls...just like every single group of enthusiasts has.
We're here for the same reason, the love of this hobby.

Now onto our regularly scheduled program

ok, it's set up for 10pm on the Rc10talk Youtube channel. We'll see if it works tonight.

Man looks like your place hasn’t changed much in 30 years

I scanned the following into the Library under "Spare Parts: Offroad," "Spare Parts: Onroad," and "Reedy Motors": Tips-for-Lexan-Painting.pdf sp300_Reedy_Micro_Lathe.pdf 3201_12e_Front_end_Kit.pdf 3430_1_12_Diff_Inst.pdf 4110_12i_Front_End_Kit.pdf 4111_Spring_Front_end....

Kind of surprised I didn't have a thread for this. I got this truck a few years ago. Pretty solid. Even had Lunsford turnbuckles. But, no trans. Thankfully, i bought a b2/b3 lot shortly after getting the T3 and ended up with trans for it. I tore it all down, cleaned everything and reassemble the tru...

For those still following this discussion - we meet up at a private track in Yucaipa a few times a year. We run organized races, old school hand count style, really only following the lead group. Its quite fun to toss our cars around the track with our modern electronics and tires. For those interes...

Really nothing special here, but all these years later my wife came across these old pictures of mine. This car was my younger brothers that I built for him back then. Thinking back to when we built it I could have sworn it came with red logo wheels and not the white wheels a Junior Two should have....

Really Rich coming from a company that stole more ideas and designs than anyone!

It was so joyful starting the resurrection of my old A stamp (late Edinger) https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=48230, so when I got into the build, I simply had to switch to a parallel build including a early Edinger I bought last year. Probably should have finished my own late Edinge...

I think I'll put tape over the Traxxas logos on my box art SRT to avoid promoting traxxas when racing it in the vintage scene.

Post processing was done. First a bath of IPA Alcoohol (not a fresh one), then remove the supports, then another bath with clean IPA; the two baths with agitation. Nex was drying with air compressor outside, inside, outside again... Then I let it dry alone for 30 minutes again... I only had an issue...

The chances are good that the brass spring retainers dates from the eighties. I've never seen anything like these and if you haven’t seen them, they might be homemade. But as you see after the cleaning the finish is pretty good. As expected, the gearbox revealed E clip drive gear pivot - put it to t...

I am anxiously awaiting the part of the thread where Dinglem reveals that he has acquired the actual car and 3more like it
