#6002 - RC10 Worlds Car Kit

[mtbkym01]

Will we be seeing this turn laps at MP?

I get the feeling that we may well mate.

could someone tell me what size bearings I need for the steering please.
also, anything else I 'need' for the car ? like are the stock turnbuckles ok? change to VTS slipper maybe??

My car is going to be raced, it's actually replacing my 4.2
well, at least until I get my 5M

well my worlds kit has some 90's era parts in it now ....found 4 flanged bearings for the bell cranks...now my steering is smooth. why wouldn't associated just put bearing in the bell cranks over bushings? kinda stupid. I mean its not like im going for spot on 100% accurate worlds car here.

Quite simply, cost and being a little more true to the original. Those 1/4"x 3/8" flanged bearings are certainly not the cheapest of the bearings to include.

I kinda thought it might be those.
Was hunting around Tower, but after seeing the price I had hoped not
Oh well, thanks for confirming.

Boca and other bearing places are $1 a pop

I feel like a tard. I thought I ordered my worlds car a while back but it was just sitting in my online shopping cart. Duh. So, it should be delivered today. I wonder if there are any running production changes.

That raises an interesting question. If this isn't a limited release, will kits purchased a year from now still have the same issues?

I've been busy...

Worlds runner
Graphite (half original, half rere to complete it)
Classic rere (not sure what I'm going to do to finish it, running or shelfer)
B5 Rear (still need motor, battery, receiver and servo)

[RichieRich]

Ok, my car was delivered on Wed. Cracked open the box right away. Everything seems in order. Packed 3/17 according to the slip inside. I can't wait to start the build. I need to get some bearings for the steering and I'll be set.

I really hope that the problems don't continue. mine is currently sitting on the shelf bare of electronics and I stripped the tires off of it for my new b5m. I have yet to receive my top shaft from associated and I know the cva bones popping out of the outdrives is gonna continue to be an issue and my idea of putting more shims to get the bone end further into the outdrive is simply not gonna work. the 2mm I need is not gonna be acheiveable because then the crosspin will be bound on the bearing so my almost $300 super bitchen worlds car re re is mearly an expensive shelf ornament at this time. if I wanted to look at an expensive worlds car shelf ornament I would have bought a real worlds car to have sitting up there to look at. maybe I will buy another one next year and see if the same issue is there or associated has been silently watching the web forums waiting for us to tell them what the problem is with their production cars and will have fixed the issues and fired heir blind machinist. I'm 110% sure their prototype didn't have these issues . ive got a few sets of cvd's laying around that im gonna see what fits better and im stripping a top shaft out of an old b4 trans I have and ive ordered some rpm ball cups so that my re re worlds is ready to rock when I get some more electronics.
