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

Today was shock tower day. Opening the bags was somewhat stressful since I had never seen the rear tower in the wild. I drilled two upper holes for the rear tower to mount properly to the RPM rear bulkhead. The front bolted up as expected. I'll most likely use 3/4 shcs for the upper & lower shoc...

I decided to do a couple of things this morning. RPM 7089 translucent center link, 7338 translucent white rod ends, and vintage (not the newer retro) 1990 Lunsford Ti turnbuckles. I was careful not to mar the rod ends. Lengths were measured using my Ultra mold buggy. CC-RPM-Worlds7 (Large).jpg CC-RP...

I decided to build the tranny today. Lots of bags were opened up. Low and behold I didn't have the Hydra thrust bearing bag in the pile. Fortunately I had a few spares in my hydra stash bag. Everything went together nicely, and I only had to fight with one of the threaded inserts to allow the 2-56 s...

First and foremost, a HUGE shoutout and appreciation to Larry Doe for helping me make this dream a reality. Larry was kind enough to bring my car down with him for the IFMAR worlds this past week at Hobby Action Raceway in Chandler, AZ for me to display in BK's memorial pit spot. I'll have this on d...

All i can say is WOW

All that carbon fiber goodness and then the hydra drive...Top Notch Build!!!

The RC10 has such a wide nose plate, it's just like it's made to be tinkered with. So why not do a lay down front suspension? . PXL_20230919_172801854~2.jpg . PXL_20230919_175111687.jpg . It bolts up nicely in place and works smoothly. The little front shocks seem to be the right stroke length. Not ...

8) Fantastic, love me some CC Worlds builds. Keep it coming :D It's coming along nicely. I am fixing to start on the shocks. I've been going back and forth on which parts to use. I'll probably post a shock parts pile by this weekend. That car looks great with many high-end race parts. I can’t wait ...

HG clear bodies
Paragon jump jets
Mip blue orings
Progressive suspension reservoir shock caps
No oil cause it would all leak out anyway

That’s a killer looking combo

Great looking build. I really like those front tires.

Initially I had 4 aluminum crews for the Stealth, but it turned out a few had some heads that must have been abused. I used 4 steel ones because I forgot that I had ordered a bag of Tecnacraft aluminum 4-40x1" screws off eBay last week. I then realized that I forgot to cut the motor plate, so I...

An absolute thing of beauty….could you slow down on your builds, I’m starting to feel like a slacker over here (my RC10GX has a layer of dust on it that is making me feel bad).

The SACS blended in very nicely with the black and carbon theme - such a tasty build!

CVD's have been assembled. These are the early version with smooth round bell bottom. I was going to use Shiny bones, but since they list B3 (1997) I feel they are too new for my build.
