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

Being both actively involved in RC cars and skateboarding since I was 12,I've always thought the link between Gil Jr.'s RC endevours and his older brother Allen's skateboarding carrer and company were really interesting. You can read more about this connection in the last Losi scan I posted... But,I...

If I may add...Pop Losi owned a skateboard company called Variflex,which was a reasonably successful company and Allen Losi rode for them. After Pop Losi sold the company to a toy store chain,Allen started up the first Team Losi. Pop Losi also owned a very popular skatepark,called the Del Mar Skate ...

The 'other' Team Losi/Allen Losi stuff just keeps comin'!
Check these out...I may have to take back the remark about 'LSD' not being THAT LSD,after looking at the Losi Airbourne ad!
LOVE that Variflex ad!

Let's see your Revolution motor collections! I love these motors,they are just the icing on the cake,on a nicely restored vintage Losi. :D I finally found a Revolution I had long lusted after-the Daytona Oval,a vicious 8x1 wind with a white label. When the motor arrived,I was very surprised to see i...

Wow, been a long time since I've seen a Novak connector like that one, man! I have a good amount of vintage ESCs and they sure built 'em right, back then. Still go like troopers. I FINALLY got an MTM Revolution motor! :D The label isn't perfect, but I'm going to work on it, and I'm just happy to hav...

Hey everyone, hope all is well. I picked up a TLR Ten SCT a while ago and started modding it, immediately. It's the best nitro car I've owned...must be 'vintage' by now, right? The mods... TLR alloy chassis braces and front steering cover 8IGHT fuel tank Hard anodized shocks RC10B.2 throttle linkage...

I picked up two RC10T Team Trucks last year and used all of the best parts from them. Did the hydrogen peroxide treatment on the white plastics. One truck came with a new, unpainted body :P This is the first body I've airbrushed. No mods, just period correct electronics. I really want to drive it, I...

This wasn't supposed to happen! I have collected and restored every Losi buggy, cars and trucks from the JRX2, onward. The cut off point was the XXX series...or was supposed to be! I somehow wound up justifying sourcing and restoring both XXX Kinwald cars. I already have the XX CR KE, might as well ...

Truck looks great! I just finished up restoring a few of them myself. You can get reproduction decals from MCI Racing. Thanks Mark! I'm looking for the decal that goes on top of the cowl hood, MCI don't have them, last I checked. I do 99% of my restos box art, so it's bugging me a bit. :? A very ni...

Wow, I need to get a body and paint it box art for my Graphite. I never bothered putting a body on it, the chassis just looks amazing, but this is the go. It's a Viper body, right? Mmmmm, vintage graphite...Man, I need to lose the rear Losi tires, does anyone have a pair of Associated tires for sale...

Merry Christmas! Hope everyone had a great day with family. I've owned a few Bigwigs, both in the late '80's and one I built one about ten years ago, by buying every part until I had a complete kit, ready to assemble, in front of me. That one was fun. Couldn't help snap a re-release up. I originally...

I hope everyone is coping with the pandemic as best you can. I just picked this lot up, it cost me a good US$300, but I think it's worth it. Sold the Dynatech to a mate, so that took the cost down. Looks like a Proline or JG truck conversion and a Sassy chassis-might put some tires on it and run it ...

Absolutely!
Just trying to find a new SWB chassis and I think I sold the new wheels I had, too.

Build it, paint it box art, put some Tamiya wheels and tires on it, run it once, then shelve it. I had one when I was 13 in 1989, it was super fun! A friend got an Avante as a Birthday present and was talking all kinds of smack of how he was going to drag my ass. By the time he gets it built and com...
