Once you get that belly pan from ROH73(Best ones out there) you won't see anything anyway and it'll keep it nice and blue. I'm thinkin it looks great so far and can't wait to see a Losi guys spin on something blue .

I really love this RC10 but not haveing a stash of Rc10 parts makes building one of these cars a little on the expensive side. I have a body and undertray on the way, along with a bunch of nip parts:
RPM blue
RC10 T bumper
B4 gear cover
RC10 front cross brace
B4 blue shock bushings
B4 shock rebuild kit
and blue battery thumb screw set
B4 wheel set
Parts I still need to order
ASC1282 turnbuckles set
B4 CVD set
B4 front axle set asc1585

Who cares its just a RC10 its not a Losi just kidding I might not you never know I might just put it on the shelf. I have built several RC10's over the years somehow they always end up on the for sale block? I must say I needed something else to build but at heart I am 100% a Losi guy. this is one cool Rc10 so my plan is to keep this one for my collection. I have always wanted a Blue chassis RC10. But I must say it has inspired my next Losi build
Well I am bummed two hours in the dyepot this is what came out? this really sucks! I have dyed alot of RC10 towers, and parts over the years never had one turn out like this they wont take the dye?
bearrickster wrote:what do you guys think went wrong with the dye job?
with all those LOSI parts staring at them they were a little shy and didn't take as much as they should've...
With fiberglass the only way I've had success with dye is use the RIT liquid and keep it near boiling for a loonnnngggg period of time...and sometimes this still happens.

I really like Ricks blue build, and had my blue (leftovers build) truck staring at me:
Yanked off the wheels, grabbed my set of Jeepz arms and started building (or rebuilding)

Still in the middle of my re-bduil of the WOIN. I also switched the front shock tower from a RC10T to an RPM World tower, and now after hearing how much different it made the car handle I can not wait to get mine back out there.

I rembered those tires had a strange smell to them too. Maybe Im just strange.
No they smelled,--------------------bad, but mabey sitting in a bag for the past 5 years have mellowed them out some :lol:
I'm still working on my original Ultima project, and I've known for a while that I wanted a Pro XL. I ran across this on ebay for a pretty good price. I'm sure you've spotted the problem. Someone got bored and said, Man, I really want a blue ultima!...

I recently picked up a losi-xx and test fitted the body on this same chassis. The lower body lines fit the chassis shape perfectly which should help keeping dirt out.
You could even cut a sheet of lexan and fold it at the chassis edges, join the...

I see they got your problem answered. yes you will need the B4 bones for these arms, they were designed to work with B4 CVDs.
Can't wait to see it together.

Today I got some of the worst news one could ever hear, but in the end it turned out better than I could have hoped.
I was gone for the better part of the day and when I came home I asked where my 14 daughter was. I was told she had went sailing...

Jake,
glad to hear all turned out good...had me scared to read on after the first few sentences. Have a 13 year old daughter myself but have been lucky that she doesn't like to be in water she can't see the bottom in. Living on the murky...
So I haven't been around for a while, had to concentrate more on school/work/family. So now that school is over, I can start up my little madness again.
However, I was trying to put up a new avatar, and can't get it to the proper size without it...
OK so stay with me on this one lol. I LOOONNGG time ago, i sold my YZ10 (15 years maybe) to a collector in Scotland.

Anyhoo,...
