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

Sorry guys, I do not normally check this site anymore as the bulk of the activity is on FB. But, we have exciting news!!! GoMachV on here, Jeff Malar (Factory Works) and I have agreed to have Factory Works take over the carbon fiber cutting! What does this mean? You will no longer see the Vintage RC...

Wow!

Todd, thanks for all your help with my past projects.

Jeff is definitely a great choice to carry on the cutting.

Some useless knowledge as I put the "shocks" back together. Each wheel has two, one is internally sprung, and the other has a limiting tube.

Yikes. Time. Passes. Anyway, apologies for cannibalizing a rear Eagle/Bullet tower. Too much MacGuyver bitd, I guess..

Been looking for last couple of years and grabbed this from Japan. No one really rates these but ive always has a soft spot for them from the old Hobby City days in Auckland, This one needs CVD's and the battery clips etc, but not in bad nick. The double belt gearbox is supposed to be pretty ineffic...

Hi All, these are my collections, the prototype chassis TRF-211X distributed for Tamiya team drivers in 1991-1993, still in needed some small pieces to complete them. TRF-211X.JPG Anyone knows the TRF-411X, the first belt driven 4WD buggy from Tamiya, reference photos borrowed from web: TRF-411X.jpg

Rick Vehlow was the driver. But it's not gonna be a true replica. Screenshot_20231003_224535_Samsung Notes.jpg Edit: going with a Furatani "replica". The V-low-pro version of the TRX-1 body is kinda too expensive to reproduce. Have you thought of the team blue groove narrow trx1 body? It’...

Yokomo YZ205SS rod end balls and YZ207 rod ends are 5.8mm

Though, RPM makes dyeable white rod ends for Traxxas vehicles... part # 80511

Also a few other bits to add eventually, not sure about the electronics yet, I am planning to run it. Team Penguin does an undertay and gear cover, the rest is TBG, always quality. Belts (TM17) were hard to source, found tough racing, but they have a sketchy looking website and wouldn't ship to New ...

Tamia's new Tamiya Pajero is a real weird animal. They left the lift kit on it, assumingly because it's the only place to put a moden battery, and left the gearing for a monster truck intact but they put smaller tires on it. While I did not run it around in stock form because I couldn't bring myself...

Looks like a cool place. Always nice to find a track you can run on...

Entering my Kyosho Pro-XRT stadium truck. Picked this up early 2021 and spent a little over a year collecting needed parts before starting the build process. Finished the build and installed electronics a couple years back, and just recently finished the body which is a TBG repro with MCI decals. Tr...

Hi all...adding this here because there are others already posted in this section...Daryl Lane gave this truck to me, his last personal truck, a few weeks before he passed in 2021. As such, I can see his touches throughout and it took me some time to get to working on it. As it currently sits, there...

I wasn’t the first, and soon won’t be the last…. I started this build a good while ago along side my gas buggy. Just ran out of clean hardware then lost motivation. I wanted to wait until the truck was finished but it’ll be old news after everyone has a gold chassis. Now that Associated is releasing...

Just to stir the pot.... Masami screwdriver?
