Hi bud ordered a few items from shapeways and was wondering if you were going to make anything for the RC10DS cars, I'm getting ready to order most of what shapeways has to offer for the DS but we need more. Do you have a shop/store local in socal?

1) Front body posts
2) Wheels that mimic originals for rubber tires (rears most importantly)
3) Hub caps for said wheels
4) Cvd's if possible

Hello,

Sorry, I dont plan to make anything for the RC10DS.

I don't have a storefront shop, i just make things in my garage and through Shapeways.

Cool to see this thread back to the top. I have run an indoor racing season with the B1M, with some success towards the end as I was sorting the car out - for those who want to check how it went, all details here: https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=42474&start=45

Anyways - Having scratch the OIN itch, i then moved to B6.1 in 2018. But no later than this week I pulled out the B1M from his shelf to get it to run again, as saturday I'm driving to a track :D
that is going to close at the end of the month :( . Given that it's a 5hrs round trip during the day, and I'm taking my 9 y.o. with me and his turnigy buggy, I don't want to get stuck there with nothing to run in case we break something on the other side of the country (switzerland is small). Net, I did a shakedown run with the B1M at 10pm on a very slippery (1degC) driveway to make sure all is ok, and guess what... everything is, and it runs like a champ, very balanced and nicely behaving!

I can only recommend that conversion to anyone, really - fantastic way to ressucitate an old classic!

(edit: my soon drew the "hypnotic" lines on the wheels... :lol: )
