When I awoke from RC hibernation and started dragging my RC stuff out of the attic back in about 2014, I was surprised that my old matched SCE packs still accepted a charge and they actually performed very well - for a time. After maybe a dozen cycles, the began to die - some faster than others. The...

Yes - 2 ball joints for the steering linkage to the wheel knuckle joints. The smaller brass ball joint is for the steering servo arm.

Like many here, I have more than my fair share of vintage RC10's, but this one has been under construction for over 2 years sitting in the background waiting for the right parts and trying to decide how to paint it. I wanted this one to be more of a street buggy. I wanted something different from th...

I’m glad to see someone else doing this- I don’t have the time and it’s something that would sell for sure. I don’t recall the idler teeth but it’s all b6. I did a couple different setups, and also modded them in case we wanted to run 4wd. I just never got around to finishing any of it. I don’t thin...

Yup - TCR , I sure remember those ads from the TV.

Worked a bit more on it tonight. Rebuilt an old Yokomo motor for checking alignment of the belt and pinion. For some odd reason, the motor did not fit up against the aluminum mount. The factory design was off a bit. The top plate on the pod was sitting too low and interferes with the motor. I had to...

Hey all, nothing like resurrecting a decade old project and chain, but after largely stepping away from RC due to life (new jobs, long commutes, travel soccer, etc..) I finally used the lockdown to get back on track, and "completed this one. Ok, complete is relative, as it could definitely use ...

Finally a little more progress. My take on this build took a huge leap forward when i managed to source an original Trinity upper chassis plate a few weeks ago. With that motivator, the shocks have now been changed as per the mag car, additional front upper shock mount holes have been added, and the...

Well.....

Last 1:1 race of the crappy COVID year. This was my favorite pic of the day. Motivational notes are often left for the driver. This one rocks

I have to admit I'm a little conflicted but those Delta parts will no doubt go to a good home . Now that i know what i am working with it will be close to the Losi Jr. car but with a few twists...keepin that Delta Dog conversion and using a few Factory Works parts. I am no expert by any means on Yo...

Officially done....
