Side by side packs to fit a rc10

Post by JosephS » Sun Jul 04, 2021 10:34 pm

Are there any commonly available packs that will fit a traditional rc10 with a manual speed controller?

I was looking a this it’s only 5 cells though.

Venom 6v 3000mAh 5-Cell Large Scale Receiver NiMH Battery https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006O6GIA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_4A13ZVWJN4ZBN6K8TPS0

Do I have to roll my own?

Its not perfect, but it should fit.

I heard that you can remove the end caps from a stick pack and that will fit.

Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.

I use 1800 nimh stick packs, remove the plastic end caps & re-shrinkwrap. They fit.

Im cleaning up my original rc10 buggy. The battery trays are mounted side to side and i would like to keep it that way so i can run the original mechanical speed control. Problem is none of my stick packs fit. I had a junk 6 cell so i opened it up...

you would eventually damage the MSC, simply due to the fact that the lipo will likely have a much longer run time, resulting in overheating the resistors. they get smokin' hot running for 4-8 minutes, much longer and the parts will start to degrade.

You could probably use TC3/4 diff shims if needed.

I thought you might be interested in a side by side comparo of these two JRX2 bodies. I purchased the Team Bluegroove body after realizing I was too late to get one of Erich's. I must admit the cost kind of put me off as well. But, as things have a...

It's nice to know that there are people out there putting time and effort into creating excellent repro works of art that can fill the void of products long gone and very coveted.

Thanks guys

Hi guys

Looking for a vintage looking new pack that will fit the RC10 without mods - I tried a few packs at the LHS but they were too big, I am thinking I probably need to find a 1500 MAH pack or something in that vicinity.

Preference for packs...

I remember back when losi came out with the JRX2 and T and the biggest feature was the rear suspension. All the mags talked like it was the best thing ever and then before long it was gone and losi switched to the h-arm. I thought I read an article...

I'm no expert, just a weekend racer (was anyway). I had a JRxT that I converted to buggy to the use the longer arms, ext that came with the truck version. What I remember most about the 5 link set up was that the lower arms kept hanging up in my...

Well...it's more like cleaning project. Diggley had an idea of making a buggy from left over parts, so I decided to go through my closet and see what I could come up with. I don't have much stuff I don't use, but I found some cool old school boxes,...

Man that thing is amazing. Mine looks nothing like that. I might have to sell off some of my cars and rebuild mine.

Very cool build. The Raider arr was my first rc car and I bought another one last year.

Thanks! It was one of my first cars too. I...

This is rather funny; the weird thing is, I don't remember ever having this issue before, back in the 80's.

I have a rather high-torque brushed motor rebuilt & installed in my Turbo Optima, and it seems almost every time I hook up the battery,...

Thanks Steve, that wasn't the problem though. The nuts were going on more than far enough, and were just spinning off as soon as I hit the throttle. As someone correctly pointed out, the nylon in the lock-nuts must've been worn out. New lock-nuts...
