Re: Forum News & Discussion

Well I was finally able to get a multiplier number next to the trophy. Now there's the task of setting them to members accounts one by one. I kind of wish I never considered this as something that was supposed to take an hour or two, snowballed into taking days. :? Me and my big ideas. :P

Re: Forum News & Discussion

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Thanks guys! I don't mind doing all the technical work it takes as it's what I signed up for. I actually enjoy it but like everything else, it can be frustrating at times. :) And yes, I still have to add the other graphical award for Build of the Year. That will be done in th...

Re: Forum News & Discussion

We use the Spectrum app on the Roku too, but after some frustration with their service have started using the Pluto app more. We were going to keep Spectrum as an ISP and cancel their streaming cable service, but they ended up basically giving us their streaming service free. We do use Pluto more t...

Re: Original Midnight Pumpkin replica

The coolest ever use of the QD Midnight Pumpkin is when they drove them on the beach over a minefield for the Nickelodeon game show Wild & Crazy Kids. 8)

Re: Forum News & Discussion

It was good to look at it a little bit more in depth. It's an area that can stand to be improved by the developers. I also don't like how you can't delete old notifications. While searching phpBB's support board I found many others with the same gripe. What I did find out is the amount of time it ta...

Re: How many years have you been into RC?

My first remote control experience (besides those toy grade turn in reverse units) would've been slot cars. My brother and I had an oval slot car track sometime around 1987-'88, and also got a Tyco Super Duper Double Looper track with the two Lamborghini Countach slot cars, that thing was a huge de...

Re: Merry Christmas From Bolink

I bought the Digger when they first came out because it was something I could afford as a kid. It's funny, I remember the night I put it together because the desk in my bedroom I used as a workbench was under the windows, and the moon was shining in. The desk in question was covered on top by a piec...

Re: Forum News & Discussion

So just a quick question .............. where do the garage / home-builds go now? I think they were lumped in the "Vintage Other," but now that is sub-categorized into all the makes. Where do the home brews go? :) Well that depends. Is it entirely custom, or is it based off an existing mo...

Re: ** RC10Talk.com SC10 Waffle **

We actually do it following every raffle. When we have them, people donate all throughout the month instead of mainly at the beginning. It would be unfair to have all those who donate later on to lose the status not long after as a result. So the next month is considered a freebie. Plus the entire p...

Re: Difference between Kyosho Le Mans Stock 05 Tamiya 540 motors

Here in America at least, every toy grade R/C that was equipped with a 540 motor back in the day seemingly had either a Mabuchi or a Johnson. Power tools and other items all used them as well. I don't know the full backstory but they're basically the same motor with the Johnson supposedly being marg...

Re: Picture of the day. (Taken by you)

Cheating a bit as it's a YouTube clip but it was today and by me . I've suspected we had a badger coming to our garden for over a year but never seen it , then last week my wife and daughter came home after dark and saw it scurrying off , that was enough for me to go on Amazon and find a cheap nigh...
