Tenkin BC210 charger operation

I was able to find a manual for this charger, but it says nothing about charge times. Is this a 20 min charger? Will it charge the NiMH batteries too?

I have one of these practically brand new from back in the day, hardly ever used it for some reason. From what I can remember it would do a quick charge in ~15 min. or so when set up for "fast charge." Depends on how many cells of course and if they're SCR/SCE, etc. This was nearly 20 years ago though so I may be off.

Not sure on NiMH batteries though.

Anybody remember the Tuna Charger circa 1982? It was the first commercially available temperature sensing charger I can remember. They were made by a racer named Gary Slayton who worked for Panavision in SoCal. Here's a pic of mine, complete with...

Hey I ran across a photo of Gary Slayton. Now I remember his nickname was Gumball , looks like he was a slot car guy from way back.

He's the guy on the far left

So I’ve had this rere Super Astute for a while now.
Bought it from a friend who bought it from a friend who bought it from a friend... I think I’m number five on it and it’s never been run.
Never really known what to do with it. Must be demons in it...

Last post

With a few upgrades to stronger plastics I see Super Astute as good as any race buggy of time. Add in a carbon chassis and IFMAR champ. I might go so far as to say no need for the Dyna Storm evolution. If nothing else, it sure is sexy to look at....

Since my teens, I have loved RC10s.

Since my teens, I have thought RS Golden Arrows were great looking.

Since getting back into vintage RC, I have thought about combining the two, but gold pans just weren't all that compatible with the GA body....

Last post

This is awesome! I had two Golden Arrows back in the day. First met it's demise trying to jump a pool. The other just got beat down over time. Wasn't much after that when I got my first RC10. Very neat mashup!

First post

Because I'm an idiot and refuse to admit defeat, I'm making my Supershot Re-Re go AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. This does also involve handling better than stock, I.E. like a brick on ketamine. To that end, I've already done some mods to it:

65mm front...

Alright, spent a day at the local track and realized I was going about the suspension COMPLETELY wrong. In the above pictures, the suspension is shown at uncompressed height. Basically, I had the shocks at full extension at all times during normal...

With all the love for blue builds going on around here lately, I figured I better start this one soon. I've been collecting parts for a little bit and while it's nowhere near as hard a process to locate these like some of the gold pan vintage stuff...

BUMPING this old thread. Unfortunately the pictures are all gone. I would love to see these pictures if the OP feels like sorting out the links. It's a long shot, but it sounds like a lot of great B3 option parts are in those photos.

Thanks!

I got a good deal on a built Super Astute rere.
Thought about how to go about this build/mod and figured I'll do a all black and gray version starting with the hardware.
I've never used Birchwood Casey Aluminum black and Super Blue (not yet...

I think this will be an interesting build - can't wait to see what you do with it.
I was completely unfamiliar with Tamiya Astute buggy until you started this post but I've been doing a little research - this is a very neat RC and it appears to have...
