This is in worse condition than the pictures make it look.
The fins on the fets have corroded edges. Hopefully it’ll at least clean up nicely for display.

Re: Carbonfiber T3 RTR

I did a temp placement of everything and did a shake down to see how it’s working IMG_2452.jpeg It’s geared conservatively, which was good give it 90+ in the shade at 11 in the morning. It runs good, just slow. The 27mhz am radio does not like having the antenna rolled up and tucked away. I may need...

Re: ** Build of the Month Contest - July 2023 ** - Winner - dinglem

t3_1.jpeg t3_2.jpeg This is my T3 built up on a hand made carbon fiber chassis. It was a challenge to make a 1 piece CF chassis that had both the front brace mount and the rear integrated bulkhead and mount. I see why there wasn't every a 3rd party version.

Re: Getting a Chassis Gold Anodized

I used Batemans and the service and price was great. The gold color he used is a pretty good match (edit: some of the later darker chassis) but unfortunately he had to strip my chassis from black. Because of this the chassis has a sorta dull color to it instead of a slight sheen. Maybe there is mor...

I did some light wet sanding on the wheels and finished up the wheels and body with some novus polish.

rc10 modern parts listing

There had been a lot of activity around rc10 parts lately. It's possible at this time to build a ground up stealth rc10 from nylon parts. This is mostly from the rc10CC and FANRC parts availability. I thought it may be good to create a thread that compiles a few options. I know there are more, so po...

Re: Help ID this? Rere or OG?

Thank you guys!!! Didn’t notice a drilled chassis will have to look closer… There is always going to be something wrong. The truck converted rc10's seem to sell for less than the buggies. That truck does look great. It at least appears to be an excellent starting point for an RC10 6 gear. While the...

2 full sets of plastics.

At first I thought they were too yellow then I compared them to a non-whitened piece.

They feel and sound like dehydrated nylon. I may soak them before I do anything with them.

Re: for those not on Facebook... injection molded parts rolling out

I finally got my stuff in, and overall, like it a lot! The color is probably just about perfect, if trying to be universally appealing. I think I would maybe want a single shade more white, but by doing that, it would probably be considered too white by many purists. Its just about that shade that ...
