Ordered two of these from the UK last night, The Dead Pool project is moving forward again, thanks to @TxRx


May take a couple weeks to get them.

In 1987 Kyosho released a 1/10 2wd electric off-road racing buggy called the Ultima, a model that would not only win them a World Title at the hands of Joel Johnson but live on through half a dozen future iterations. The foundation for the first Ultima was a slender formed aluminum chassis with pres...

I hate when Busch Light has their cammo cans out. I set my beer down while doing yard work and now I can't find the damn thing.

Raced 2wd 17.5 with my B6.4 and stadium truck open with my Storm ST. Also put down a few practice laps with my new toy, the NIX91 an also a B4.1 i worked on for a friend and my Ultima JJ. The racing went fairly well. Felt I've become a bit more consistent in stock buggy and still struggled with the ...

In 1987, fresh off of his IFMAR World Championship win, team driver Joel Johnson struck a pose in Kyosho's ad for the Ultima and Turbo Optima: Ultima : 1/10 2wd electric off-road racing buggy, debuted in 1987. Built on a narrow formed aluminum chassis with plastic upper deck and molded nylon compone...

The whole Goodwill thing has been a running joke, akin to the "two weeks" for all new AE products I just couldn't resist

for those not on facebook....

Back in the day, trying to turn my Optima into an on-road car; I had a 1969 Charger body for it. Look closely, I think that's white hockey stick tape on the speed controller wires... :lol: https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=16938 https://www.rc10talk.com/download/file.php?id=40621&mode=vie...

Ok... not only is this my new favorite RC video... I think it may be the best video on youtube... period. IlcaWZ61T3w Kai City makes some decent videos but ☝️ is just epic. Turns out he's made 45 others. Never knew. Link to his playlist... some pretty good ones in there: https://www.youtube.com/watc...

In 1987 Kyosho released the Optima mid, a 1/10 4wd electric off-road racing buggy and the third design to wear the Optima badge. Not just a rebody like the Salute and Javelin, the new Optima was redesigned from the ground up, as its name suggests, to be a mid-motor racing machine. New from stem to s...

Built up an old chassis I had kicking around, this tub is twisted and bent, and a few holes drilled out for some reason. I left it with the powder coater a while back and said to surprise me. I dig the orange! I installed the Ten4.1 kit, short arm version Also has the irs-10 trailing arm set which w...

I got my Yokomo MR4TC running but I'm thinking of changing the ESC and servo back to KO Propo to keep everything in the same time frame. Let me hear some opinions.

Hi all...adding this here because there are others already posted in this section...Daryl Lane gave this truck to me, his last personal truck, a few weeks before he passed in 2021. As such, I can see his touches throughout and it took me some time to get to working on it. As it currently sits, there...

I love a good zip-tie stitch!
