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

HELLO EVERYONE!!! 2020 has been and will continue to be a challenging year. I still cant believe that at one point it was easier to find a vintage DS tire than it was a roll of toilet paper. It isnt suprising that my first build for 2020 got started during the quarantine. Im happy to say its moving...

I'm just not digging those grey wheels...the style is too high positive offset for my tastes, for a muscle car. I think HPI nailed it with their vintage VTA wheel series: https://www.hpiracing.com/en/part/3822 Kyosho's wheels are so-so, but could be made to look pretty close if you painted the wheel...

I am still updating the History site. It now lists 426 vehicles from 1970-2020!

I think the sprint car is cool!

There's a lot of information to post about the black tub and blue pan versions of trucks, too much for a little phone screen, lol. In short my opinion is the black tub trucks are more collectable. The blue pan trucks have a slightly longer chassis and are more rigid then the black tubs. Aside from d...

I just love i mean really love this build and thread its just what im simpatico with, doesnt mean its all 100% my taste but as a package deal its sweet. A few questions, So i have a nice electric ds and well used needing rebuilding nitro ds, one had a lambo body the other some earnheart body neithe...

I wish I could remember more details. I don’t remember my turnbuckles being at a bad angle but it’s been too long to say for sure. If you’re going oval it might be worth your while to just use the GT bulkhead and do a custom tower or an oval tower as you won’t need the wing tubes.

for nitro rc10, it's as simple as using a rc10gt chassis, trimming the front 0.400 inch from the end to shorten wheelbase. use a buggy nose clip complete, and swap in rear a-arms and bones/axles, leaving the bulkhead arm mounts, hubs and trans intact. if you use 1/4" axles, use the buggy hubs.

For instance, these HPI vintage 5-spokes look very old school! They have them in 26mm and 31mm widths and in matte (pictured) and black.
