Custom RC 10 mid engine.
OK Guys I have done a convertion that has not been done much. Thanks to another buddy of mind Together we did a pair of RC custom mid engine gold pan buggies. I set mind up as a truck but use gold pan chassic. USE truck tires in the rear. With buggie wheels up front Also use old school tranny. I have wanted a mid engine for many years but could never figure out how to do it.. Now I have one.

Re: Custom RC 10 mid engine.
Bit odd with the 2 different sizes of wheels. Maybe get a pair of slim front truck wheels from... I think it was Jconcepts?

Re: Custom RC 10 mid engine.
Hello Ed. ON that one I have just built. It is one that was built from parts and a chassic that was given to me a few weeks ago. I do have plans of building another one but this time useing a Reg Gold pan. Chassisc . OR even my fiber carbon one I have.. Even thought about doing one as an RC 10 T truck. I have both in carbon.
BUT in the mean time I am going to just run this one and see what it acts like. I do have a set of factory Oringial RC 10 T stock slim tires and wheels that your talking about. That are still like new. Never had a reason to use them but now since you made that sudjustion I may use them on the next one. Thanks Don

Re: Custom RC 10 mid engine.
BY the way is there any one that has pictures of stock Mid engine that I can look over and see how one was built from the factory or close to one. IT will help me later when I try to do a stock one. Thank you..

Re: Custom RC 10 mid engine.
HEY THERE ALL.
ok i HAVE RAN into a new set of problems. that i was not aware of. OK I knew I was going to have to change the wireing on the motor. TO get it to run forward when I pull back on the radio. BUt NO matter what I do. THE motor still runs in reverce. I can run forwaerd but only If the motor is runing in reverce. So with the mid engine was there a set of speical motors that you had to run with this set ?
This all new to me for I this is the first time i Have done this.
I am runing an OLD novac rooster speed control old school Futaba radio. I am getting radio iinterfearces . So now can some one give some advice on what I can do . so everything will run nomal like a reg brush motos do. ONE more thing I now have a heating problem with things getting hot motor speed conotroll . I am runing a normal stock RC 10 spure and pinon. thanks DON

Re: Custom RC 10 mid engine.
I have even switch the directiions on the radio no matter what I do Nothing will make a difference, So do you have to do something to the motors? like maybe turning the end bell 180 or so . could use some help on this one. IT is a little different to drive handles a litttle different but fun. Thanks DON In Portland Oregon
