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

Hey all, I picked up a JRX2 a couple weeks back originally with the intention of just restoring it but now I’ve decided to get her running in the local 17.5 class. First, a little backstory about myself: I started racing off road Production class with my box stock RC10 in 1986 (IIRC) here in Las Veg...

Finally have a complete set of logo buggy wheels. I love all the fruit loop colors from that time!

If we all step back and remember what it was exactly that made R/C so immediately fascinating, most of us would probably say it was a level of realism involved. Both Kyosho & Tamiya gave us the chance to feel what real racing was all about, but it’s much more affordable and a lot less dangerous....

I did not made updates on this thread lately... First, shocks issue was solved with Tamiya red o-rings. They works much better, and the don't leak anymore. I received the under guard from Optima House recently. I had the time to mount them during an evening, butt did not bother to take pictures at t...

Just a beautiful day outside today so had to get this one out for a lil' run on a dirt ramp I have started making.

I don't have pictures of all of them, but here are some. I've been really bad about not finishing cars/trucks over the past couple years. Some are runners, some are incomplete, some are realized projects that took decades for me to even begin creating :) Custom Anodized 22-4 converted to a 4wd truck

More of that same category (didn't realize I've kept so many pictures).

Custom anodized NXT

Early Gen 1 XX4, cleaned up the best I can.

The one that was in my mind for decades before I actually built it - I still havent run it, but I will one day....

Hi, I got a tip regarding a Junior T for a reasonable price and from a neighbour country here in Europe. I bought it thinking it would be a nice pile of parts. It turns out the truck has never been run. Not a scratch anywhere. I guess it is a late one since it has the white front bulkhead and a ligh...

If you're after home-made... check out this witchcraft before your very eyes then..... Ian Mullaney over in the UK has taken it upon himself to save space in his ProCAT for vintage class racing by building an esc into his chassis.... :shock: He just sent me the pics to post up on here. The guy is a ...

Today, I started something... For the small story, I had a Kyosho 1/12 back in the eighties, it was 4WD, there was a chain, and a one way at the front, and a prototype body... I did not have a proper place to run it at that time, so it was sold almost once build, and I did not really run it. When I ...

A bit late about this... Due to the fact I wanted to use white as background on the bodyshell, I decided to use liquid mask https://i.imgur.com/tKWUSOM.jpg I have 2 hobby knifes designed to be used with the index, I will try those for this (my wife had those for scrapbooking, found the idea being go...

I did run my Fantom and the Spider Touring Force TF-3 this week-end in Macon on a nice on road track with nice curves and a long straight line... https://i.imgur.com/4MB4BIR.jpg There was a lot of fun on this week-end with a lot of vintage rc passionate people. Stands of the site were full. Expositi...
