First test run went great till I decided to try and jump a curb/ramp. The first 3 try's went very well. The car jumps very level to my surprise. Then I got over confident and lunched it full steam and not straight. Now it's time to order new rod ends and a front shock mount.
Do you notice any handling differences between the RC10 graphite team car and the RC10 team car with tub chassis (both fitted with white nylon parts throughout)?
I haven't driven either yet. Been a while...greetings all :)

I would say the tub chassis has more flex and probably a lot bigger sweet spot for setup
Hey all,
After a conversation at work after one guy bought a Tamiya Frog, I remembered my old Nikko Black Fox I have up in the loft.
Brought it down and loaded it with batteries, but it seems dead as a door nail. Light comes on the remote, and there...

Thanks for the replies - the dead capacitors theory certainly sounds logical.
I bought this new in 1990 I think. It's an Rc10 team car in kit #6035. I have never raced, just enjoyed whoppin all the Tyco's. I would like to clean it up for my son and I, where should I start and where is the cheapest source for parts? Do Hobby...

Looks like you have most of everything you need to get started. I would get a new battery and charger and give it a go.
Here is one of my newest additions to my RC10 collection.
Got it from a buy now auction right off the bay. I think it is a nice modified car and I got the information that it was driven by a former Italien Team Associated driver.
I will only clean...

What was the reasoning back in the day for trimming down the chassis. Weight only?
weight was a factor but also being able to get the body down as low as possible helped airflow. You needed all the advantages you could get before the battery...
Just pulled my RC10TC out of storage after 20+ years. Put a 17.5T brushless motor w/ 3S lipo and a new body on it and it's now my favourite car to play with.
Here we go following on from my other thread(Where I bought all kinds of stuff) I now have lots of scrubbed up and cleaned parts all ready to assemble. I should have enough for a runner but also to rebuild a Team car into a runner. Just going to...

Ah cheers, I've got four here and they all look the same. I'll fit em and see what it's like. Learning all the time! 8)
I had the chance to buy an RC10 Team Car that had been raced for most of it's life around 5 or so years ago.
I really liked Viper bodies and wanted to do a paint job along the lines of my Gold Pan, but it turned out AWFUL.
I tried to remedy the...

Honestly, I don't see any awful mistakes. All of your cars look awesome to me. 8)
So, I'm a little confused (that's common for me :oops: ) which one needed to be wet-sanded :?:
One of my best friends has the number plate 'XLR8'!
It's been on...
