Re: Frankenshorty RC10 buggies - #2: The Stubbie Tub

Needed a rear skid plate too. I learned that lesson with Fs#1.

I wonder if this one gets crazy expensive because, well, they actually had to develop and tool this time around.

I honestly can't imagine that this isn't a joint effort with MIP. Like MIP supplies the axles, shafting etc. AE supplies the molded plastics. It makes no business or financial sense for them both to bring out independent offerings. especially given the MIP reluctance for yeeaaars.

My videographer assistant was not a willing participant, but still supported a little bit of run time recording. The little lipo also didn't love this application.

Yeah I'm gonna let them figure that out, hahaha. I'm done spending money just to have them clone it. I already have something else cooking.

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

Got the GT donor truck to convert mine back to nitro. Has most of what I need. Tires and wheels are decent enough for starters. Has RPM arms which is a nice surprise I'll be contacting Klavy for a few parts. :wink: Derek has my original OS .12 which he's donating. Just need time to do the resto.

Re: The RC10 4wd (or how AE stole the Ten4 project)

Saw a thread over on TC this morning about a guy getting banned from DICKliks FB page simply for making a slightly negative comment about a sponsor of his. That guy is a piece of work, and not helping the RC world.

Re: The RC10 4wd (or how AE stole the Ten4 project)

I just happened to remove the post this morning. It was up long enough. I like how he wouldn't respond to my comment either.

He's a grifter, especially in the RC10 space.
