Got my NIP Tekin ESC and receiver installed in my RC10 and it's ready to roll.
Finished the decals,too.
Just a few small items left and it'll be all good.
Was the mabuchi an original motor for the 10's? (I just caught the "vintage" bug last week and got my first gold tub) I don't ever remember as long back as I can think, seeing a mabuchi in a rc10, so when I saw your pic it made me wonder.

those look close, but the originals have a flat body without the lip on the edges of the plastic. They changed them around 2001ish when they came out with the 2-pin micro plug.
guys lemme tell ya, being on a racing photoshoot for an entire week in miami is both a blessing and a curse... it was reallly really hot and my feet still hurt from standing on the track all darn day. now i have the unfortunate task of editing the...
Been messing with the gold pan the last couple of days, took out the crappy traxxas ESC I had in there, reprogramed and installed a axial (castle sidewinder) ESC in there instead, running into a Trinity Cobalt Pro 27t stock brushed motor. I got a...

It's so new and black all I can see is a silhouette with yellow wheels :lol:
So I have this B2 I picked up as a roller, and just happened to try and stick a steering servo in the car. I think it was an S128 or S148 futuba servo, standard size. It wouldn't quite fit in the small space for a servo. I checked the manual but...

Good to hear you got it worked out.
Since it does fit in so tight,
it will be the last thing to fall out when doing cartwheels !!!!!
