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

known of this stuff for a long time just always had green slime until now. noleen sf3 suspension grease sure as heck looks to be the same... i wish i had a fresh tube of green slime to compare. certainly a LOT cheaper than the a.e. stuff. ;) goin with rpm red medium/heavy lower pistons with the whit...

got the 30wt in em. they look neat...

im gonna use the vlts since ive had em set aside forever for this particular build.l, but wouldnt be against considering some losi shocks if i had a set.

I have neon commercial dye from rit. It is sold by the pound so I have a lot left lol. Id be happy to send some of you want to play with it appreciate it, i'll see how the rit i got comin looks. every time i think about dying it i have second thoughts... i want this 6bf474_6d1e85745c7f4bec9175a7d1c...

all this talk about price... somebody explain to my why a rere optima or procat kit is cheaper than a bare bones rc10.

i have recently been selling rc stuff. its been nice getting rid of most of it as i have too much. i sold a pair of bigbear bodies to a dude in texas on the 21st of december on the rc10 vintage b/s/t group on fb. had a couple fb messages with him and got the payment and addy and all that right away....

i feel better. dude got back to me and said no worries.

happy new year errbody.

I was hoping this was a challenge thread cause I'm pretty sure I got all you beat when it comes to stupidity! i once put a soldering iron to my lips. i was stoned. also, in another solder/stoner related accident i dropped 2 full drops of liquid soldering flux into my eye. on purpose. i had visine a...

right piece about 3 or so minutes blue, 20ish minutes red, left piece about 5 minutes blue and 10ish minutes red.

these look a bit better in the image than real life. im leanin towards not dyin the car. i think it would look neat but will also look neat all white.

Just for the sake of pushing the envelope- What was the concentration of the dye to water? I'm still a believer it was not at all scientific. i just used a coffee cup and microwave with about a half inch of water/dye. nuked until it boiled, then placed the shock tools. did not add a lot of blue, li...

Sorry if I've.......are you just doing the chassis? Or the whole rear-end (bulkhead, arms, etc.) in blue and the front, etc. in red, with the mid-portion of the chassis left "natural"? all the components dyed not just the chassis itself. like if you put it all together and dipped each end...

forgive the cluttered desk. its how i work... its together and its white. i did put the rpm ball cups in hot black coffee for 2 minutes to knock em down a little and match the older rpm stuff. worked pretty well. hopin i have a set of black wheels to match my other rpm buggy. still need an xx body b...

not the best light but heres the pair. new one with the longer shock setup on the left.

cc worlds is close, but imho nothin beats cool like an rpm ultramold.

I'm sure some of the newer vintage enthusiasts have NO idea what we used to find, and how we used to get it. Might make a cool thread now that I think about it. when i lived in chicago i didnt have interet or even a computer at home for years. sometime around 2003/4 i would guess, (pre auction snip...

i had this torker 24" up on local fb marketplace for ages at 700 bucks. the entire bike... no real interest other than the typical lowball 'cash today' types, but some guys were only interested in the pedals.... so being a bit wise on fudgers tryin to get something for nothing i looked em up an...
