RC10 Ascot Questions

Post by nvxwax »

Ok, I got this Ascot from Mike (Thanks Mike), I have a few questions...

#1 Can a AE 6163 sprinter body be cut to work on this car (I have one), Any examples or should i just look out for a ascot body (Im guessing they made a body of there own)

#2 Anybody have an example of how to install a AE 6188 sprinter wing on this car (I have one)? Or did Ascot make a wing also lol.

Litesink Motor Plate
MIP transmission
Rear Andy's Arms
Andy's Short Sprint Arms
Losi Steering
Tecnacraft Turnbuckles w/rpm ends
Duratrax Wheels and Tires
Polish Nose Plate with No major dings after polished
JG Sprint Bumper
Jammin Jay Battery Brace

I have this body but it has headers built into it, wondering if anybody has used this body on an ascot (Examples)

This is the wing kit i was going to mount, lets just say the instructions are a little bland lol, it has long wing tubes and wing wire and some other ods and ends lol

The wing is made for a different mounting system using wing wire and wing tubes, but you can make it work with a home made mount.

The McCalister sprint bodies will work much better, and are designed with a seperate front panel and rear tail cone-

Thanks Reg, Would a custom works spring body fit also?

Ok so i was playing with some aluminum and this is what i have mocked up, what do ya think lol, I know this would not work for a runner
(heavy as hell, 1/16" thick ally lol) but after final polish it would kinda match.

Same dimensions as the AE wing

That wing looks good!! The standard wing was a bit smaller for the side boards. The CW bodies have specifically moulded side panels to fit the CW cage so I don't think that they will work- Gary's shells are cheap, and should fit inside that chassis-

Your rolling chassis and wing look amazing! Can't wait to see it finished!
