Anything beyond that I'd suggest you bring a small broom, dust pan, magnet, and a ziplock bag to collect any salvageable remains from your inevitable crash :)
Thank God at least someONE is getting it :mrgreen:

Drawing 'Halsey' ad wheels & knockoffs now, could very well do some 1-piecers too. Hope I don't get shot down by someone else! :cry: Chris REC

About done drawing 'em now Mate, you'll get 'em back soon! (Of course, people know that by 'Soon' I mean eventually. :P Maybe. :wink:

I think I'll do a set of outers, like the originals, for the hardcores & a 1-pc. set of 4 solids also. I'll proto 'em as soon as I can, likely (?) before the kits ship, and an Email after the kits are out. Wish Tower would ship it already!! Chris REC

it really matters the battery you use . my buddy is running a small lipo in his 6 gear with a 13.5 and i think its faster then my stealth with a 10.5 running 6cell nimh. he has not had any problems and hes not running outdrive bearings ( outdrive bearings is a must for my 6gear runners)

Some spare parts are in!

I've started shooting photos of the spare parts for the RC10 Classic. I'll be posting them here soon - today or tomorrow! 10 altogether.

One thing I've noticed - some of the part number/part descriptions do not match up with the earlier RC10 catalog part number/part descriptions, so you won't want to order based on old paper catalogs. Why this is, I don't know.

Wow. $72 for a chassis and $27 for a nose plate. I guess they went by ebay prices!

only $4.59 for rear arm mounts though!

Dang. The chassis is listed at $71.99 and the nose at 26.69. A bit higher than the days of old, but the plastic prices seem pretty good. I also noticed the spur gear was 48-pitch.
