I think I'm finally done.........

Post by Sixtysixdeuce »

My original 1994 RC10CE was resurrected last March, and has been ripped up and redone a couple of times since, but I think I have the final configuration now. Of course, the only original pieces left are the rear buklhead, transmission top shaft and the slipper assembly.

The following I built myself:

-4mm carbon fiber chassis
-two-into-one 6061-T651 nose brace
-7075-T6 rear arm mounts

The rest is:

-RPM front & Rear arms, RPM ball cups
-Losi Mini 8ight stainless turnbuckles
-3mm carbon fiber towers
-New Worlds black motor plate and nose plate
-CVDs
-JC Racing 5 spoke wheels with Suburbs MC in back and Dirt Webs Gold up front
-DHawk aluminum trans housing & diff gear
-RPS alloy bellcranks
-Losi TLR-22 big bore shocks
-All stainless or blue FT hardware, save for a couple of grade 8 screws
-Leopard 3430 KV 4 pole motor
-AE SC1200BL ESC
-(currently) Kyosho KS200MG servo, soon to be an Atomik HD-1207TG high torque titanium geard shorty servo

I had built hub carriers from 7075-T6 as well, but a slight misalignment caused them to eat bearings in short order, so new standard plastic carriers went back on until I have time to do those again, this time with a quality counterbore and made to accept 1/4x1/2" bearings.

As an aside, that Leopard motor may not have been expensive, but it's smooth for a sensorless and VERY powerful.

that's pretty cool. That is an interesting way to brace the nose of the car

That's a nice car you have made!
You should replace the few remaining original parts and put your original CE back together.
. . . you have Associated Green Slime for brains. And not even new Green Slime, but old gooped out Green Slime.

I might, but many of the parts were upgraded on account of breakage. It's not like I have a whole CE in a box minus the few parts still on this one. I'd need arms, arm mounts, turnbuckles, shock towers...............

I have a full set of arms (wide black front, RPM rear) and arm mounts (black front, 0 degree rear) I don't need. Let me know if you're interested. It would be cool if you could put your original car back together.
