I've been racing with the Tacon motors, Hobbywing ESC (35A and 60A) and Gens Ace 2s lipos for two years now and no failures. They are great for the budget minded person.....like me.

Welcome to the madness bro. I run Hobbywing ESCs, Tacon motors and Gens Ace Lipos. My RC10 gold pan is raced with a 2950KV Tacon, 60A Hobbywing ESC and 4000mah 2s Gens Ace lipo pack geared at 81/26. The motor has gobs and gobs of torque! I generally have to set my radio at 90% throttle to keep it co...

thanks bro. I was running a 13T mod and never had heating problems, but I was always thought I would someday cook it. I will heed your info. Thanks again.

What is the hottest brushed moter I can safely run on this vintage esc using 6 cells nimh packs. Thanks in advance.

ugliest car every fo sho. I'm willing to help you out though. Place it in a well padded box and ship it to me ASAP. You can thank me later when you realize all the happiness and dough I would've saved you. But you need to hurry, before wife changes her mind and allows you to keep it.

1985 A stamped RC10.

I wouldn't waist my time with that junkie car jeepjunkie. Now, listen carefully. I'm going to save you a ton of money and lots of enjoyment. Send that car, along with the electronics to me asap. You can thank me later when you realize all the money you'll save. Trust me. :wink: My address is...........

I race my A stamped 1985 RC10 on a regular basis and do quite well. I've TQed several times and just flat out beaten the "modern" buggies and SC trucks too. I run it with a Tacon 2950KV (13.5T) geared at 81/26-28 powered by an EZrun 35A ESC and Gens Ace 4000mah 2S 30C battery. The car has ...

I doubt you have to spend anywhere near that to get decent gear. Visit www.hobbyparz.com. They have great deals on what you're looking for. Also, visit your local hobby shop for some bargains.

Mr ED, it is a 32dp gears. The only one I could find was a 16T. I'm thinking if I stay below a 3000KV brushless I should be fine or do you think different? Any insight is greatly appreciated.

I have to agree too lebowski770. I'm not partial to anything other than RC10s but this one caught my eye and the price was the deal maker. I'm not familiar with Kyosho buggies but this one looks like it might make a neat racer with a mild brushless setup. I tore it down last night to give it a good ...

I just purchased an Ultima from my LHS for $40 ready to run. The tires appear brand new or have very little use. I want to upgrade the shocks and brushed motor with a brushless setup and race it. Hehehehe. Currently, the brushed motor has a 16T pinion. What do you gents suggest? Sorry for the fuzzy ...

great looking buggy bro. I have one too and recently ran my best times at the local track with it. I'm using a Hobbywing 35AESC with a Hobbywing 17.5T BL geared at 75/30. I was smoking guys using B4s and other top of the line buggies.

Thanks gents

I'm painting my RC10 body using Fascolor Red and I wanted to know what color to use as a top coat. I know to use silver with white, but what about with red? thanks for the insight.
