Brushless T4. The basher gets bashed. Ouch.

Not vintage, but it's still an RC10.

Well, I didn't want to bash my RC10T, it was in such nice shape. But, I was in need of a basher. So, I sold the 10T to Sharkman and used the money to put towards buying this bad boy. Factory Team RC10T4 with a Novak brushless system. GTB ESC and Velociti 5.5 motor. I've kind of been taking my time to build it, for whatever reason I wasn't in a hurry. But, it's finally done after 3 days. It's dark out now, so I can't take it for a spin, but tomorrow I'll be tearing up the neighborhood. Had to take a few pics of it while it was still shiney and purdy.

Who can spot the two OE 6010 pieces on this new machine?

shock caps, right? what do i win? that should run pretty good with the brushless setup.

Hey Melvins Army,

I know i said i wouldnt get arid of it and its value is Superb,but i have a VINTAGE ALL ORIGINAL MINT RC10 i would trade ya for that Brushless T4?




I can make it RTR as well,plus you get the Antique ESC! ESC to make it rtr will be Novak XRS and i believe its a trinity motor stays in it.

[MelvinsArmy]

scr8p, you are correct sir! Now, on to the prizes. Hmm, prizes. Bragging rights?

Hey RC10_Fanatic_34, I have a mint RC10 myself, so I don't really need another. And, unless yours is still in the box unassembled, it's not worth nearly as much as a brushless FT T4.

So, this is why I bought a T4 with a brushless. To bash. And, just as I put in the second battery pack of it's young life, a huge piece of concrete chunk popped up out of the bash field when the truck was traveling at full speed. This thing is FAAAASSSSSST. I don't know how many MPH, but it was fast enough that I didn't see a chunk of concrete larger than my head in the way. Note to self, fully inspect bashing area next time before insane speed run. With one loud bang and no spectacular crash, the carnage ensued.

I don't really mind carnage so much. I just wish it had happened at the end of the 3rd pack I had charged, not the begining of the 2nd. Oh, and my lovely body ain't so purdy no more.

Wish I had some extra cubic dollars,I'd shoot you an offer you wouldn't refuse!!
