Re: First RC10 Team, it's going to be a racer!
Thanks, yes I'm going to go back to stock rear arms, well rpm ones, I have lots of alloy b4.1 hubs/hex wheels so will go this route I think,I can always play with the track width with different wheel hex shims from a TC
If in doubt go flat out!

Re: First RC10 Team, it's going to be a racer!
What about your ball stud position on the front caster block? Why the outside /front instead of the back? Did you not notice any problems? Thanks

Re: First RC10 Team, it's going to be a racer!
No it's fine as per the photo , if you have it in the back of the c hub it hits the hub on full lock/compression
It doesn't bind as it so all good!

Re: First RC10 Team, it's going to be a racer!
I like the car very much. Good that you used RPM arms, 3D printed arms are weak and IMO they are garbage. How close are your lap times compared to a modern car?

Re: First RC10 Team, it's going to be a racer!
Thanks!! Yes I love the old girl!
I'm busy rebuilding a RM125 Mx bike at the moment but will get the rear end sorted and it'll be out on track
When I raced indoors in AstroTurf I was around 2 secs a lap down on the yz2/B6 etc with a lap time of 22/23 secs so not too bad!

Giving the old girl another make over, an rc10 is never finished!!

Re: First RC10 Team, it's going to be a racer!
The last layout didn’t work too well on the carpet so changed it to this for its next outing!
Here is a quick video of it running

I hadn't seen this build before-
I really really like it! The whole back and white combination works.
And you race it, thats awesome.
