Post by DMAT »

finally got activated in the forums :)

So Im now in possession of an RC10 graphite and RC10 CE which Ive gone into some crazy into getting them fixed up and going. After a chat with some team associated staff, they gave me this place's url and here I am. I'll get some pictures of what I have up a little later.

while all my pics are uploading to an online site so i can post here, ill give a brief run down of how things are. Dad gave me the rc10 graphite back when I was 13 or so. It was his but now mine. We decided to make a new body for it and as you can see my flaming design came to life with his instruction on how to do things. Well, time passes by, i end up burning several motors and batteries but we had spares so no real problem. few years later, It breaks and well not having tools or know how to fix it, I did everything I could with lego's and duct tape until the last motor burned up. Car get boxed. half a decade later I get myself a traxxas rustler. After much destruction and rebuilding, i finally feel competent enough to deal with my rc10. I decide to buy my grandfather's rc10CE both cars are as old as me lol. Right now im working on fixing up the Graphite with the CE acting as a temp parts car. My goal is to convert the graphite into a full brushless rig. Ill probably get the CE running but My fun is with the graphite.
