Here we go... I have built a pan and an almost complete graphite old-new RC10s in the last couple years. I have a bunch of parts left over, so now comes the after birth old-new RC10.

My first one was the pan car. I ended up getting a really cool...

I put them on right away to see how they look. I also painted up one of my old motor mounts to match the chassis a bit better since it was previously blue. I noticed after snapping the photos that I need...

Hi,

Is a Blue Eagle just an Eagle with different chassis, bellcrank steering, blue shocks and motor plate?

Are there other differences?

Last post

I took a little closer look and it also appears that the tower is longer at the bottom, so you'd have to trim it up some to make it work as well. Maybe add your own holes located somewhere in a sturdy spot in the bulkhead.
