Been meaning to do this for ages , it's a gear cover for the pinion and spur , it won't seal it all completely as it can't be sealed at the bottom of the chassis but it should stop crap raining down on the gears .
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.
A problem shared is a problem halved but an advantage shared is no advantage at all.
The tires i ordered to run it with finally arrived yesterday so today she ran for the first time since the rebuild , the transmission sounds incredibly smooth ! its still running the silver can complete with the odd plastic pinion that came with it but it still ran with a nice enough pace with the 2S 2200mah lipo i made for it , its a very easy car to drive , nicely balanced , quite pleased for a first run , until i can find some metal diff crown gears i think i'll keep the silver can motor to preserve the plastic crown gears . The last of the decals arrived as well so you can see where I'm heading with the body paint job .

They all run even if only lightly , its a big part of it for me to know what each car on my list drove like , I don't think I could resist , that's kind of why I have left some cars out of my collection so far, I really want a Marui Samurai but they are so renowned for being fragile ..... One day maybe .

Wile E on your Coyote! Too bad SG didn't do a "Tamiya" and have a proper animal logo for it. You'll also have to find a Spica Road Runner to go with the Coyote.
Cool to hear you ran it without breaking anything. Love the Wile E decals..can’t wait to see the body now! I have some metal crown/ring gears for you..they are the chrome plated, pot metal ones. Not the nice machined ones, but better than plastic.

I'm away on holiday soon so all spending is off so the body will have to wait for paint , very slow build this one by my standards but its getting there .

I've now fitted the metal crown gears that BattleTrack kindly supplied , I've run it a few more times , still sounds silly smooth and is so composed , of all my Vintage cars probably only the PB Mini Mustang drives better but I've not driven them back to back yet so I don't know , with getting the resin 3d printer this month I'm still short on cash for paint but next month I really must daub some colour on the body .

Finally ordered some paint so this might get finished sometime soon .

Once i got the idea for the paint job in my head i just could not fight it , hope you like it

So.... i have posted a few of my old race cars on the forum already, and they are the usual RC10 and Yokomo offerings, but when i was just getting into R/C i always lusted after the adverts of the TAG Coyote which was posted in Radio Race Car...

Anything really. I have most of the chassis.
So mainly suspension and drivetrain parts.
Hello new to this board, I am 46 from Italy and currently mega happy for my latest find, a barn find...3 rc cars that i considered lost in the early 90's. An Sg Tag coyote 4wd (kyosho megamotor) 1/10 buggy, a Tamiya Porsche 959 Dakar rally model...

Welcome! Some nice cars you have there. I would like to see more pics of that Coyote with it’s vintage electronics..
I scored a couple of very well used Pro 10s nearly two years ago. They'd been converted to nitro, consequently, both the motor mounts were hacked. A lot of the parts are re-useable. I have a few new parts to add to the mix as well.
This will be a...

In the optional parts list for the Pro 10 it mentions a lightweight crown gear, lightweight diff output shafts and a lightweight diff box. Fortunately, I already have the lightweight output shafts. After some searching, a pair of lightweight crown...
I first saw one of these on Tamiyaclub back in 2006. First impressions were, what were they on? :lol:
After much investigation and research, I decided that I would buy one and modify it for running. There's no way I could shelve something this...

Made front carbon fibre arm reinforcing plates. Also polished the pivot balls which helps a lot. The arms have been re-hydrating in a jar of water for the past four weeks to stop them cracking when reinserting the balls. It seems to have worked. The...
Going through one of my old offroad boxes I found some parts again I got when driving a preproduction TAG car, I think this was the TAG Pro10. Thought some guys might be interested in seeing such parts.
The production car later should use a...
This is the actual TAG Pro10 RCMC review car (Sept '88), complete with optional central roller clutch and alloy motor mount (neither of which i have seen before) supplied by Phil Greeno. I was offered this as a loft find by...

I haven’t fitted the attack angle kit yet. I was too excited about sourcing the original shell and getting the stickers right on that. It is on my list of things to do though!
