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

So You´re asking how to get the most money out of Your investment? All kits are available at the shops today, so unless You got them for free or under 1/3 of cheapest price found on the net, I don´t see them as a money making option. So either wait 20-40 years while hoping for Tamiya to stop releasi...

Go with golds! Car looks awsome, love it.....so classic

The Kyosho Icarus is a 2WD entry-level RC car from the year 1985/1986. It has the same chassis as the Pegasus, Cosmo and Cox Bandido. The original motor is the 360ST, size 550, 22 turns - 22,000 rpm and it has independent suspension on four wheels with oil dampers. This buggy is the version that Gra...

You mean the tube frame you've made? Piece o' cake. Start with photos: a top down and one from the side (only one side image is needed assuming the frame is symmetrical). Hold the camera parallel to the floor for the top down, and parallel to the car's longitudinal axis for the side profile and hold...

I'm still working. The wife has been home though, so it frees me up after work. Don't have to walk the dog, make supper, etc. Finally have some time to mess with r/c stuff later in the night. if any of you guys are on the 10talk FB group, I've been doing some FB live videos while dicking around the ...

This is pretty strange. If you look at this manual (same kit #) it is slightly different. I believe some of the kits varied from country to country. This must be one of those variations. I'm sure you will find a longer strap somewhere. I have the same issue with a Lazer ZX I am restoring. The chass...

Now it's looking legit!

Who knew back when I had a pile of these and was giving them away they would be come so hard to come by. I would pay a machinist for a nice aluminum one. In the meantime when you find one run the factory works front brace. You need to get longer pins, LOSA602 and LOSA5017 are options and probably ot...

I've had this project in my head for quite a long time, and finally found the missing front axle parts that I needed to proceed. I had jwscab machine the diff halves in order to fit the JCAR DDS tranny. I also have some red aluminum Ultima front shocks for the rear, and HPI Super Star mounted foams....

OOPS!

Not one single picture did You care to share with us, not one word of thanks to the people responding to Your cry for help. Seems like a good idea turning Your thread into an advertisement for Your Ebay sale.

Right on, our event was a blast and I can’t wait for the next one. I need to get back to the Traxxas side as those are my main group I support but I’m going to keep the DR10 as a loaner when we have a odd number in the field. I hate seeing bye rounds lol. This is the street eliminator chassis we se...

Looks killer bud.
