My wheels of choice! looks sweet!juicedcoupe wrote: ↑Sun Jun 22, 2025 11:18 pm I dug out my Sassy Chassis RC10 and swapped some stuff around.
I swapped out the wide front arms from some short ones and used wide CRP axles. For some reason, it just felt right. (the Tamiya shocks are also a better fit with short arms)
I also swapped the rear arms and carriers for some that matched the front.
Factory Works rear hexes, Turbo Scorpion wheels, and Schumacher tires.
I need to decide on a body and shock towers and get some turnbuckles.

Consistency is the key I keep misplacing.

Re: So, what did you do RC today?
Pulled out another RC car I had from back in the day. Mini Cooper by Excalibur 1:52 scale.
I don't think it will work because I doubt the nicd battery in the car is still good.
I cleaned up the transmitter and the charger and loaded em with new batteries. Now I just have to wait.

Re: So, what did you do RC today?
Played around putting one of my RadioLink RXs into a Futaba case. The plug spacing is completely different on modern RXs compared to old ones, so not a direct swap. This is perfectly functional, it is just funky that it has to plugged into BATT and CH2.
I am still trying to find some pcb terminal strips that I know I have, and if I do, I may ago about this a different way, but it is what it is for now.

I build RCs like people would have done back in the '90s ..................................... if they had 3D printers.
