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

I have been into R/C cars for most of my life and I took a long hiatus when going to college and then trying to establish a career. Mothballing my RC10 gold pan during this time. Regardless, this RC10 was my introduction to R/C and quickly...

Hi, I recently got an old Rc10 from my uncle. I know literally nothing about its history except that it has an A stamp on the chassis. I am trying to get it running again(I know a lot of people will say to put it on a shelf). as of this writing, it...

Good morning,

Back in the hobby after a 30 year hiatus. Started toying around with a DR10 build a couple months ago and remembered how addictive it can be. Now I just picked up an old gold pan RC10 I'm looking to do a bit of a refurb to.

Hi to all,
Just joint to see if I can get a hand in reviving my old RC10GT. Last it run (over 10 years ago) a tiny rock loged itself in the gears and broke the engine rod. It was in a box for a long time. Now I have the truck, but misplaced the...
