RC10Talk community build

[GoMachV]

we have this one pretty well lined up because I wanted to make sure we could pull it off. I think for the next one we will approach it differently. More of a "hot potato" method where you dont know who will get it next, or what part they will play. I can see this evolving into something that will be a lot of fun and bring some badly needed donations to the board.

Also, we can change up the rules later or as we go, but on this one I dont care if the next guy dyes my parts or paints them purple as long as it is done in the spirit of making for a better build and also not removing the parts I added. If something happens, say someone wants to upgrade the rear bulkhead to an RPM part, all I would ask is that the person reach out to the one that installed it and gains permission, and sends the part back if they want it back. In the end, that part is an upgrade and would be welcomed imo. This isnt about egos or one upping everyone else, and I think the people I picked for this one will play very nicely together. In the future with the hot potato method we may change that up.

So cool, can't wait to see progress.

On this I respectfully disagree. Each person is not necessarily getting to add their own details if the next person can change those details. If you add something with blue anodizing, then the next guy should not get to change that anodizing to purple. What if the guy after him hates purple and decides to polish the parts instead? Similarly, if I were to contribute a rare set of hot pink wheels, then someone getting the car after me should not be allowed to dye those wheels black. Building the car as you are suggesting means that the people at the end of the line essentially have all of the creative rights and get the final say in the outcome of the build.

Have to strongly agree with this. If other people down the line are allowed to redo what others' have put into the build, than its essentially taking away from the "community" build. Like ChisaiKuso mentioned, it would give people down the line all the creative rights and could take away some of the communities' creativity as a whole. Similar to the wheels example; whoever contributes a painted body, no one afterwards should be allowed to re-paint the body.

Edit- just now read Mach's post above.

Surely this build needs some Kyosho parts upgrades?

[GoMachV]

It’s going to Jason next so that is always a possibility

[scr8p]

No one has a Kyosho hoard like I do.

[TheDiamondOne]

Who is gonna install the TEAM PIT STOP chain drive tranny tho?

[THEYTOOKMYTHUMB]

That would be the icing on the cake!

[GoMachV]

Someone committed a sp1 or change box for it. I think the sp1 would be the better fit for the car

Just curious if there any updates on this build?

[jwscab]

Yep!

I've added a few custom items and it will be on its way to Roger for more updates! I'll post some pictures asap!

[mikea96]

Looking forward to seeing some photo's.

[GoMachV]

The updates seem to all be on Facebook. Jason added a front clip and cleaned up some parts before sending it to Joe and now on to Roger for shocks

Thanks Jeff for posting those! Hopefully this ships no later than tomorrow.

Looking very fine already
