RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Hi All

I used to be into RC has a kid and had the usual Tamiya's and Nitro RC Cars.
Recently I was at a Car Boot sale (Think Flea Market) and stumbled across a box of random RC bits, amongst them was this little beauty.
Cost me a whopping £5!
Would...

Hello everyone. I recently picked up what I think is an original Team Associated RC10 gold pan and a box of spare parts, engines, etc. I've always wanted to get into the hobby and this is my first opportunity to do so. I'm looking forward to...

Hey guys! Getting back into 1/10th R/C after a 30 yr hiatus. Back in the day I had several 1/10's, including an RC10T, Tamiya Avante 4wd, Tamiya Bruiser (yes, a real one), Kyosho Ultima, yada yada yada. All of the 1/10's are long gone, but I held...

Hi,

Was in the hobby for few years in my childhood, my first car was a Marui Hunter... My last car was one of the first Schumacher CAT imported in France and later upgraded to an XL/XLS CAT. I kept the Schumacher on a shelf and each time I moved...

Hello, just joined from Australia.

Thought I'd let you know a little more about me, and my very short 8 years in this hobby. Well - I did miss out on the last 3 or so years though for different reasons, so maybe we should cut that down to 5 years...

Hello all!

I am Greg, from France, 40+, RC 1/10e was a passion from childhood.

I own an Optima mid totally restored, and I am currently trying to rebuild (missing parts unfortunatly) a Hirobo Alien Mid4.

Looking forward to be an active member of...

Just touching base to say hello.

New to the forum but in and out of the hobby since the early 90s.

My online presence has been mostly based around full size drag cars and that is still a big part of my life (and disposable income). But I'm also...

I just wanted to stop by and say hello. I found this board looking up info for a Kyosho Outrage that I had just won on ebay for $15. And I have to say I cannot believe it took me this long to find this place!

A little background, I started to...

Hello,

I have been a RC enthusiast since the 80's. I am in the process of rebuilding a buggy and loving every minute of it :) I will put together some photos as I work through the process after I find some info about my RC build.

Cheers!

Another long time lurker, finally joined so that I can participate. The wealth of knowledge in this site is amazing. About me, I kind of did the whole RC thing backwards - I played with real cars when I was younger, and now that I'm older, I really...

Hello, all,
I’ve lurked this forum for a few years and decided to register in order to access more of the content here. In particular, I look forward to the buy/sell forums, as a regret I have is letting go of my rc10 worlds car years ago. Also, I...

Hello, just signed up. I am looking to get back into this RC thing after 25 years off. I think home quarantine had me thinking of ways to occupy my time and the box with my old RC10 inside was staring at me each day as I sat in my new make shift...

New here but long time RC enthusiast. Really interested in No Prep Drag Racing!

Hello guys :) , i'm Jérôme , i live in the suburb of Paris. I'm a Losi addict but i also have old Kyosho stuff and some other brands but not as many as i'd like . I'm particularly fond of 1/10th electric and 1/8th GP buggies.
See you soon in The...

Hi there everybody, just a quick hello and intro from South Devon. Been into RC since I was 11 yrs old, but like many of you I guess, had a bit of a period of inactivity due to various other distractions, and got back into the hobby again about 10...

It’s been awhile since I was in the hobby. I recently wanted to get a new radio for my old RC10T so that my son could see it in action. That’s what started it all off again.
It all started when I saw some one with a RC10. I think I was 14 at the...

I’m Chris from the South East of the UK and am a long time fan (and owner) but very recent, potential re-starter of this fine hobby :)

I’ve never owned an RC10 but lusted after one from the late 80s onwards - I could just never afford one! Starting...

HI all, thanks for the add. Good to be here.

Thanks
Phil

Got my first basket case used Jrx2 when I was a kid and could never afford to make it run right. I was able to get it back with my friends rc10t and jrx pro SE and now I am making them runners.

Hi all from north east uk.
Decided to dig out my 91 team car and spruce up for running.
Ran in to a problem. I seem to be missing a front axle part n.o 6218. But can’t find anyone to supply them.
Does anyone have any ideas for suppliers or a...

Hello,

My father and I got the virus in the late 80s,...

Hey everyone, I'm pretty excited to join your forums! I really like seeing all the builds you guys do, and some are pretty extreme and very well made. I've been working on my own vintage-ish builds and the threads I've stumbled on here have been a...

Well i’m guessing like a few others i was looking for something to do while everything is closed. So i went to the folks house and dug out my orig rc10. Does have an A stamp chassis. Thought i’d clean it up and see if i could get it running. I...

Thanks for the add! Stumbled across my old rc10 (1990ish) a few weeks ago and decided I might just get it going again to bump around the farm. Maybe chase the dogs and horses around. Anyway doing some reading it looks like I'm going to be on the...

I guess an introduction would be a good idea. I haven't had an RC10...yet. I couldn't afford the cars my friends had in the 80's, so I've been building Tamiya kits since 2014. I recognize some of you from Tamiya Club. Some day I would like to have...

My son turns 11 in June and I've been wanting to get back into the hobby. He's had several RC cars from big box stores, and likes them, but is also aware of my big boy cars in storage. For his birthday, I've been planning on getting him an entry...

Hi all! Stumbled across this site a couple of weeks back while searching the 'net for a replacement stub axle for a T3.
Had been out of the hobby for several years ('04-05?) and returned early 2019. (I see a lot has changed since!)
Going to try to...

Thirty years after selling off my last rc (Clodbuster), I'm back in the hobby with a used 27 year-old RC10T3 picked up from OfferUp. Was into bicycles, and worked in bike shops for over two decades; I was glad to get out a few years back. Now...

Hello all!

I was big into R/C cars in the late-80's/early-90's. I raced mostly in local oval parking lot series in a mid-engine converted RC-10 and later a BoLink Eliminator 10. I also bashed around with a Lunch Box (converted to a Midnight Pumpkin...

Hey folks! Fantastic site yall have here! I've only been restoring for a short time but it has become a full blown addiction. I never had an RC10 as a kid, so naturally I have four or so rc10 runner projects in the works. They are all slow burners...

Thanks for adding me. I dug out my original RC10 (~1986) that I raced back in the day. I restored it over the summer and plan to race it at this year's Vintage Off-Road Nationals at R/C Excitement.

Hi everyone,

Another child of the rc old school here. Getting back into this hobby after 25 years or so with a pandemic project (Kyosho Turbo Optima re re). I'm still in the process of acquiring everything I need but really stoked about the...

Hey All- So i decided to start an RC10gt e-conversion project with the goal of getting the family hooked on RC and seeing how it runs on the local indoor carpet track.
Great info on the forums here!
Wish some of those JConcepts parts were still...

Just joined to learn as much as I can about my new losi XX-T project. I've been an RC Crawler guy for 15 years now but recently got the itch to own the stadium truck from my youth that I never had. Seems to be a ton of great info here. :)

With extended time on my hands, I finally joined the group. I have been passively hitting this site while researching several cars. I have been in rc vehicles since high school, 1984. Kyosho, Associated and Losi are my primary surface choices....

ive been a glider pilot for over 20 years, never really got into cars but getting my first ride has me hooked.
here is a picture, i have swapped the spur gear from plastic to metal, makes more noise but no more stripping.

Hi Guys!!!!

Hey guys. I am an old skooler that got into RC back in the golden era (1982) when I was serving in the USAF over in Germany back then. I saw my 1st love in a window of a hobby shop back in 82, the Tamiya Wild WIlly. I had to have it. Bought it, and...
