I'm not sure, but apparently it's more than just a one off.

It's an added current limiter if I had to guess.

I don't recall that ever being a feature when this ESC was made.

I believe that is a current limiter. I can't prove it but I have seen that before.

A "feature" it was not. But it could have been added to X amount of them to test prior to the M1c.

This really isn't the correct site to show off your case hole.

The seller tells me these are team speedos from back in the day. Ok, that's got my curiosity peaked. I think I need a closer inspection.

Extra holes

by tommy2c » Wed Aug 01, 2012 5:24 pm » in RC10 Buggy Forum

First post

Rebuilding this gold pan I bought used. Does anyone have ideas on what the 2 side holes were used for? Not sure thread size yet. 8-32 screw pretty sloppy.

Last post

Maybe nerf wings or nerf bars-

Agreed.
Also could have been used as offroad body mounting.
I firmly believe that RC is the mother of invention. People get REALLY creative in this hobby/sport.

T3 extra long chassis

by Kyosho Fan2 » Sat May 18, 2013 12:30 pm » in RC10 Truck Forum

First post

Anyone know where i can get a T3 extra long chassis as7308?

Last post

The TT truck chassis is the same length as the T3 XL chassis. Not sure about the MRP version, if I had to guess I would say it's the same as TT just re-branded as MRP.

JG Mfg. Extra LWB chassis

First post

Does anyone know how much longer the JG chassis kit was compared to the stock LWB chassis? It's been bugging me for a few weeks now and I'm having trouble digging up any info on it. Thanks!

Last post

I saw that belt, it jogged my memory about this kit, hence the thread :mrgreen: I used to have the actual chassis and upper deck but when I went to use it, all of my LWB belts were too short. It never occurred to me to look for the correct belt...

stripped hole in 10T nose

by muck » Thu Jan 27, 2011 6:05 pm » in Temple's RC10 Tech Forum

First post

The main screw for the steering bell crank has a stripped hole in the 10T nose. Any suggestions to fix it? I thought about peening it over a touch on the threads and then using my special locktite.

Last post

you can try using a center punch and punching around the hole, maybe....5 times or so? then use locktite.

I like this idea!

I did this and it worked. All is good.
thanks
