With the amount of these that are being purchased, there will be a flood of build threads coming. We don't want the new car to bury the o.g. new builds, replicas, restorations, etc., that already take place in our buggy forum. So the best thing to...
Hello all, i've just got to the part to fit the idler gear screws and there's no allen key in the kit that will fit, could someone tell me the size please so i can get one.
thanks in advance Jonathan.

I snipped off about an inch of the L-shaped key and used it in a small drill pin vice; it made it MUCH easier to get the screws in straight.
This topic is going to come up eventually, we all know it!.. LOL!!
So who is building the new Worlds car to be a shelf queen or a Saturday night local track runner?
I'm going box art shelf queen on this one. It will sit beside my re re Classic box...

Runner, with a simple Speedpassion 3000kv brushless set-up, unless once its built I'll look at like I have all my other new built runner cars, that end up sitting on the shelf LOL
I want to use the stock turnbuckles in the Worlds kit but would like to replace the Ball Cups. This of course would make links that are too long as the turnbuckles are designed to work with the length of the stock smaller ball cups. What do you guys...

lunsford is supposed to be coming out with a set for the worlds/long arm car soon. You can also just get lunsfords as pairs, and get the longer pairs as necessary.
you can also get team associated blue titanium turnbuckles in pairs.
What are you guys doing to assemble the shock caps to the body with the O-rings. The ones that I have seem to be a little large and are just spit out of the side when twisting the cap down. I have seen shocks in the past that instead have Teflon...

Guys - Thanks for the help.
We were down in Hallett Oklahoma running the Porsche so I was working on these in the motel room and had left the instruction manual at home.

the B4 top shaft (which is what you have) has been known to have problems with where they machine the flats. Seems there is quite a variation. There are two options.

I know... if you've seen one you've seen them all. :wink:
I didn't stray too much from the manual. I did put a stack of spacers in the rear shocks, and I should have gone a little more. Installed bearings. I also drilled the lower set of shock...

Adding to that, buy dirty ones. Clean with soap and water first. Some choppers clean with fairly aggressive solvents and could be contributing to the breakage. A good boil wouldn't hurt either
maybe some of you know me. It is some years ago, I had my last activities here on RC10talk.com. Many things was happen and now I am back on board with some of my RC10 projects.
First, I start with my latest built here. Enjoy!...
From this thread:
I am trying to duplicate the box art colors. Since pactra is no longer around I cannot get the two pactra colors below. Some online shops say they have the pactra colors but when you call, they don't really have it in stock....

I would think the Tamiya PS-30 Brilliant Blue would work as well as the PS-1 White. Not positive on the blue, but it looks very close.
HI!... Well i bought this one off Ebay and i picked it up on Saturday. Built the car the same day including the paint. I still have to paint the driver and install window netting. I accidentally stepped on the driver so i ordered 3 more. Just...

Looks awesome! Can't wait to build my re-release RC10.
First ever build....The couple I did with my uncle back in the 80's don't count. I might've contributed 2-3% n got on the brothers nerves on top of it.
Man, definitively was fun but caused a lil despair along the way.

Looks great! Nothing like finding extra parts that aren't extra !
with those short screws and no nuts, how is this supposed to stay in the car?
i ended up installing a houge from another car in my ce, but these would have looked very nice in there.
i suppose i could...
Last post
if using them on a graphite chassis, use the longer 7/8 8-32 screws, install the shanked on the chassis (like you would a houge or a&l bell crank with the nut down), slide on bell cranks and secure with some 8-32 nuts.
I put in a big order for spare parts @ Tower. I know some of you have placed orders elsewhere...maybe directly from AE? Have any of you received any of your parts?

Placed my order directly with AE Sunday night, got shipping info today, parts should arrive tomorrow. My package shipped in 1-4 days as they said.
i literally havent touched any of my rc10s or built one in years. it was the last vintage nats i went to, which was either 2009 or 2010... sadly i have forgotten ALOT about these little rigs. truth be told i never really knew alot about them to...

I like it. 8) Maybe the big white 10 on the roof? That would be kinda realistic in a baja 1000 way. Gotta give the helicopters something to identify the car by?

Has anyone picked up a spare gold chassis for the re-re? I saw them on Tower for 80 bucks but I'm wondering if they are stamped or marked somewhere so other buyers know they are not original? Thanks

Both the gold and black re-re chassis have holes for the Stealth.
First off, thanks to Joey for all his help in PM's. he really got me sorted out and in the right direction!

Not going for the box art road.
Found a nice picture on the web of an old RC10. Sadly didn't get the history about it though. Going for something similar i think :wink:
Well, here it is. I've added bearings and the bellcrank steering. I'd like to add some vintage-looking turnbuckles. I painted it Pactra Firey Orange Metallic. It looks sorta boxart, but I wanted to make it stand out a little but still look vintage-y.
Hope this isn't a repost but there's new turnbuckle set for the RC10:
I hope they make a set that fits the wide arm RC10... RCPS style!

From what i've seen they changed just before the worlds car came out as a few people ran the ealier big nut type ones at the 93 worlds but the later style ones were run at the 93 worlds also :?
I'm through four steps and I had to give up for the night. The chassis anodizing is some odd brown color, not even close to a Stealth CE I just bought, and the coloring is uneven and blotchy. At least all the holes were countersunk, but of course...

I wont bore you with the step by step pics of my build, as it is basically standard apart from replacing the bushings with bearings. Were I did go away from standard is by using a Viper body instead of the Protech. I also have a different rear wing...
Here is my contribution to the re-release of the RC10. Nothing too fancy, but I am taking some liberties on this build as I want to also race the buggy in some vintage races.

Here is my re release build. I'd already done a Box art car restore so was looking for a different paint job for this one. Not an exact copy but close.

That would be AWSOME! I could use the real rpm worlds arm mounts and still have 2.2 wheels

Rear arm mounts and shock collars would be your best sellers
