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

Would I buy one, heck no. But must give Traxxas a thumbs up. If this garbage gets kids into our sport, AMEN. I started with an original Blackfoot and actually had a 90 something Bigfoot body on it. We raced at the local track and there was another kid with a Digger body. Fun times. Once I got tired ...

How did I miss this thread? http://www.monstersandcritics.de/downloads/downloads/articles2/89665/article_images/image5_1214595119.jpg I actually rode in this POS. An old friend of mine's parents owned some sort of tv/movie museum in Branson. Before they moved it to Nashville, they purchased this van...

Well the original RC10 had a 6 gear transmission. It's blocky looking. All the Stealth transmissions had 3 gears. If I'm not mistaken, the early models were white. The ratios changed thru the years and models. You'd have to do a search to find out which is which. I have a three or four laying around...

Ok, posted this over at DODC but figured I'd try here too for answers/suggestions. I want to recreate this body. http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs029.snc4/33826_171213699575991_100000620860940_424451_4718635_n.jpg My dad worked for the Wilcox family and we helped with this car. I hav...

In the day of vinyl wraps, it's refreshing to see some beautiful paintwork! I continue to say "one day" I'll try my hand at air brush work!

Need some Amway decals on it. lol. It doesn't look bad!

OPPS. Well already did it. Had let them sit for a couple of hours. Larger parts were diluted but the smaller parts were mostly CLR. Everything came off perfect! Really no effort and didn't take any notice to any damage. My parts are currently sitting in HP at this time. Hope they'll be alright.

Here is the rear end mocked up for the hell of it. The rear shock tower is just something for mock. It is using a Cobra rear tower and T2 shock thingees. But if I was thinking of building it for the Low Buck contest, I'd build a different shock tower if I could find some material around the house. F...

While my original parts are soaking in CLR, I figured I needed something to do. So here's some playing around pictures. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/hs070.snc6/168073_1557151222533_1647816918_1442547_7211829_n.jpg http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs1386.snc4/163851_15571516...

They have been thru first dishsoap wash. I'm researching on the site about using CLR or something similar as I'm losing patience with soap and water. Guess I'm getting a little lazy. lol. I'm not seeing it the CLR is deluted or not. Most say they just soak the parts for a few hours. Must say the par...

Well got the car in today. It's pretty dirty and nasty but looks pretty solid. It's an A stamp Cadillac. I'll get some pics up as I started to tear down and clean. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/hs038.snc6/166838_1556313001578_1647816918_1440766_7136464_n.jpg http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn....

Not familar with this chassis but interesting rear set up on this. Didn't the older Losi's have a similar set up? Is there a benefit to this compared to the current rear arm setups? Sorry to hack your thread, but just looks sweet and has me wondering.

Picked up a couple of bottles of HP 3%, now to find something to put the parts in. Don't think we have any canning jars but I'll find something. The owner's dad said they shipped the car today so should be here by Sat. Finger's crossed I don't get screwed over. Been a stressful past two months. With...

Well there goes one of my ideas...lol. Not a supermodified but using different style arms. Guess it's a NY thing.

Still sitting here twidling my thumbs waiting for my RC10 to arrive so I can do something with it!
