Re: The RC Corvette in - (1988) The Dead Pool - Clint Eastwood

The 27 Band receiver came with a dark green (or black?) antenna.

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear

I wouldn't put a 64 pitch gear on a 6 gear transmission. The spur wobble will likely trash it.

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear

64 pitch gears are good for clean carpet / on road driving, but are less durable for any rough surface driving. Whichever spur you choose, put diff balls in it.

If your going for the stock look go with the white spur with the big ole’ teeth :D

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear

The white 32 pitch gear is what it came with stock. The black 64 pitch gear and the foam tires are not original equipment from AE. An owner can customize/accessorize as desired for intended use, as was previously done with that buggy.

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear

I think 64dp gears are fine for relatively low power 1/12 pan car but I'd never run them in anything more powerful or heavy. Those tiny teeth don't offer a lot of shear strength. To keep your RC10 original and reliable, you'll want to use the white 32dp spur gear. For the differential to function, y...

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear

... I was not familiar with term or concept of diametral pitch, always had referred to them by tooth count in the past. I apologize for not making it clear in my earlier comment. :oops: There's an inverse relationship between diametral pitch (dp) and the actual size of the tooth. Thus, 32dp is a la...

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear

☝️ well put. Swapping six gear transmissions to 48 pitch pinion/spurs for off-road racing was also a thing back in the day. Previous owner looked like he came from the on-road/carpet world... foam tires, 64 pitch gearing, locked diff, etc... maybe his local carpet track built some ramps to bring in ...

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear

Found someone 3D printing the asc6614 gears for $10, many people have bought them, and no complaints, quite the opposite it would seem. https://www.ebay.com/itm/153727498232 Hmmm, that's interesting and thank you for posting a link but I'd have to pass on them. There's a lot of gear reduction ahead...

Re: RC10 - A Stamp Rebuild - Chipped Idler Gear

I'm guessing that comment wasn't posted by Kevin Talbot. :lol: Actually, doing wheelies really isn't harmful. It's the sudden shock to the drive train from the tires losing then suddenly gaining grip under throttle as the car lands from a jump or drives over rough terrain that really tests the inte...

Tamiya SRB: Ranger to Scorcher Question

I picked up a SRB Ranger awhile back, and decided to pull it out and see what it would take to refresh. I just started into a puller project, but it is starting to sink in that that is a LONG TERM project, so still needs normal builds going on. I had it in my head that it was the same body as the Bl...

Re: Tamiya SRB: Ranger to Scorcher Question

This is interesting in that most guys convert Scorchers to Rangers since they are so rare. You may want to hold on to those Ranger specific parts in case you change your mind some day. :D Anyway, having recently restored a Ranger, I can add that the front body post is also different from Scorcher. T...

My first RC10T. But, what is it?

I received this truck many years ago in a parts lot that included a very dirty but very complete RC10 Graphite. Anyway, I'd like to rebuild this T? close to original and make a nice runner but I'm a bit confused. It appears to have T2 arms but a chassis tub and rear shock tower from the original T. ...
