Re: The BMX (and other bikes) thread

While I’m not anything like I was as a kid, my 11 year old has surpassed me in the no fear area! All my kids walked and talked early, but he was walking at 9 months, figured out a 2 wheel bike at about 2 1/2. His first real bmx bike was a 12” Kink Roaster, then a 16” Sunday Primer, and we stepped hi...

Re: 10L project’S

Made some progress on what I guess I’m calling my 540 tribute car. My S3401 servo arrived, and after 2 weeks of watching my eBay purchased AE servo mounting blocks travel via USPS best shipping arrangements, instead of going from south Florida to south Louisiana, they made a trip to New Orleans, bou...

Re: Plazma Limited - Last 1/12 Re-Release?

Oh good... I feel better now ... When I was 14, I could build a Kyosho buggy or pancar practically without even needing the manual...Not only is my vision making it a lot harder, what's worse are these these newer cars that come assembled with only an exploded view & no step-by-step assembly in...

Re: Plazma Limited - Last 1/12 Re-Release?

If it helps, work with your hands and components in a gallon ZipLoc or freezer bag as you put on the circlips. If you send one to the moon, the bag almost always catches it. This is a great idea! I seem to recall a very very long time ago, somebody offering that advice or something similar. As a yo...

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Was expecting (according to usps) to be installing my Dahms 8” bi level wing and Buds hardware on my runner 10L, but in true USPS fashion they never made it “out for delivery” like they were supposed to. I did recieved my order from Warren RC for some LCRacing EMB chassis parts and was able to repla...

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

Oh look, uncle Joe is here 😔 and look he came at the end of our work day and has the area grid locked 😡 not moved for 25 minutes now, and I know he has probably not stumbled off the damn plane yet 😔

And cool build guys! Love the chain set up! Any videos of it in action? With sound!?

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

Gotcha. So with that set up, I’m guessing faster than the old 27 turn roar motors and obviously tons more torque! Very impressive, and I understand now why the 17.5 in my runner rc10 is not so impressive lol I need to get some bigger pinion gears! I knew from the pictures you posted it was pretty ta...

RC18R fans?

Anybody have any fond memories of these guys!? I’m guessing these have to be nearing the 20 year mark or so? I remember buying these with a couple friends way back just as bashers really. We were off work one odd day with nothing to do, my buddies wife was not home, all our kids were at school. So w...

Re: RC10 Green Edition - Build

Didn’t think I’d like the green so much!

Am I the only one who used a 4-40 tap in the ball cups!? lol I’d have given up on them w/o the tap, nothing I had here could hold the cups without destroying them.

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Little 1/28th scale repair/mods 😳 I’m kind of scared here! I bought 2 of these little guys a while back because rainy day inside rc races need to be an option lol. Trey gave the controller to a cousin and he brakes one of the ball studs. I found a replacement pack of rear hub/carriers for $9 and a c...
