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

Im rebuilding my Burns which I aqcuired some years ago. The previous owner had painted the entire car in harleqin colours. With the help of DOT4 and elbow grease, its slowly comming together. The radio deck is gone and I can´t seem to find a new one, so I´ll have to cut a new one. The wheels and tir...

Hello all, I present to you my freshly restored Yokomo Works ‘91 Drescher Edition. Most of you will know that Yokomo did not make a Drescher Edition and it is in fact a Yokomo Works ’91 with a conversion kit centred around a change in front suspension geometry designed by Craig Drescher and CML (muc...

Hey mate here is an example of the dremel at work to clean up your magnesium or alloy bits...plus a bit of a buff at the end to make it all shiny like the use to come straight out of the box..!
and in my 'bitser' 91 wanna bee...but not quite...

I have no clue if thats actually true but I dont know where to get anything over 3%.

No, stronger solutions don't hurt the parts. 20-50% stuff can be found at beauty supply shops. I have not seen anything stronger than 50% anywhere.

It's easier to make another kid than another 93WCS.

I will post the full build soon with all the details. THE guys at RED RC did such a cool great bunch of pics and small story on car at the J-Concept race in Tacoma I Just had to share these..I got so much attention from everyone--- engineers to designers.. Assoc and Losi drivers locals distributors....

Finally found some time to attach the rear wing and body. For now i used the repro decals that are available on eBay, despite them being a little bit too large in size. Up next will be a wide front end, lunsford vintage turnbuckles, spur gear adapter and a few updated bits here and there. IMG_0875.j...

Thank you Midge and Curtis for allowing us to see! (Steve if you find any of the pictures I am sharing to be...

More pictures... because, well... we all love pictures!

Almost done, but still trying to figure out what to do about tires. Pro Trax tires just don't exist anymore... I might have to settle for some Radicator stepped pins, but I'd really hate to go that route. *shrug* I also still need to hunt down some new shock caps that are the period-correct blue. Mi...

/With the rich history of the RC10, it's a bit hard to define what "every generation" means, really, as there have been so many "transitional" versions... do you make a difference between the early edinger and the edinger? Or, do you consider all gold-panned, 6G short front arms ...

Great build so far. I have similar tower hobbies memories. For me, I was 15 and drooling over the original Burns. It's advertised 50 mph out of the box was unbelievable. In my opinion, the Burns series was one of the most iconic 1/8 nitro buggies. Decades later I did end up with an Inferno during m...

This could take awhile but one has to start somewhere :D I can't believe how modified the 4wd cars were back then about the only stock part is the motor mount everything else is either modified or replaced the car you purchased in the shop was nothing like what was winning the races :roll: Anyway he...
