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

There's the "Things that irriate you" thread. The "Vintage... I'm getting tired of it!" thread. So, welcome to what should be the quite comical.... Today, a stupid person... Started a new project. On a Sunday. With no clue what they're doing. Three hours into a one-hour job it'll...

Since it's the future and photos can now be translated...

For those that want to know... translated versions of the RC10GX box and manual cover... and for funzies... the magazine too...

No problem! It's a cool car and was fun to see the translations... technology is awesome!

Today a stupid person pulls up in a cruddy old van and blocks my driveway while a neighborhood friend and I are standing there next to his Morgan 3 wheeler. "How much you want for it?" ...the man in the van asks indignantly and completely unsolicited. "Fifty-five"...says my frien...

That'd be the ticket, build a bitsa runner and keep the original in the box behind it.

The whole, "Only original once", theory.

Doesn't matter if there's thousands of them...



That's a pretty truck.

And the video is still live too... which is awesome because it's surprisingly enjoyable to watch.

Fascinating topic... I concur with morriseyO: 1/12 only became popular because it was run on local indoor tracks, and square footage costs money. And like juicedcoupe said: If you want to get modern kids into it, there better be something other than nostalgia to it. Because unless they grew up aroun...

Interesting... and very cool info. Could explain why the links for bodies on the Parma/PSE website have been nonfunctional... Thank you! Ummm doesn’t $59.99 seem a tiny bit pricey :shock: That's the rough part... in say, 1990 a 6in wide stadium or buggy body cost $20?... adjusted for inflation the s...

Did you know if you google image search Schumacher Nitro 10 you account for a majority of the results? 15% of the first 100 images are of your Schuey's.

Such a celebrity

Never shopped there... which you're probably wanting people who have... but, Winternity Torino google street view address puts them back where the orange van is... address placard above right of door is same listed on their site, shades are down but building opening matches the size of showroom imag...

The protoform body is just a much better build quality. The rear wheel well as well as the lower trim lines are not present on the TBG body. I also got it in my head that I want a yellow sports car and a yellow DS will be the closest to that as a reality for me. Did the DS body have rear wheel or l...

Or both!

Cool!

Thought that said "Stolen!" at first... had to do a double take...

*Note to self: must pay more attention when reading

A while back I found a cool thread started by Scr8p that linked to a timeline Novak had on their website. With Novak updates ending the timeline in 2009, their eventual closure, and wayback links as the only active workaround I thought bringing the timeline onsite would prove useful, as well as ente...
