hmmmm

Any other new parts we can get a sneak peak of yet?

Not yet. Soon though....

I can't wait. i just ordered the from and rear worlds towers and the stealth brace. I'll be putting in a stealth i picked up after I try out the 6-gear.

You can show us, we won't tell anyone.

Ok, rather than show you spy shots of individual parts I decided to post a picture of Jason's car. Those with a keen eye and perhaps a zoom function will enjoy this picture.

Ah yea I see that motor plate . Would make a great upgrade for my WOIN RC10T and the Re-Re. Damn I had to ask for more sneak peaks now come the impatient waiting game.

you guys have any concerns with the profiled carbon fiber, as far as getting frayed and 'scratchy? Recommend the CA seal around the edges?

I haven't had that problem in the past, but I am thinking of going with the CA seal this time. What do recommend Jeff?

Personally, I've never put CA on my carbon parts and I've never had an issue with them fraying. I won't be putting CA on these so maybe I can be the one to test durability. I suppose it's like insurance. It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. If you're worried and plan to spend time upside down, it doesn't hurt to add the CA just in case. Much like I haven't needed to use my volcano insurance yet, I'm gonna take the chance and assume I won't need CA insurance. You Family Guy fans will get the reference.

2 Questions. What esc is that and what motor plate am I seeing? looks like yall swiss cheesed it.

That's an LRP Flow esc-

I see something (s) else other than that

The esc is a flow.

The motor plate is not drilled, but milled. If you look at the current JConcepts motor plate options that sport the honeycomb milling you will see the same machine work done to this one. The rear portion is curved and the edge is slightly profiled to show the aluminum color in a great contrast to the black anodize. It's worth noting that this is NOT a reworked AE part. This is a completely new part made exclusively for JConcepts. It is noticeably lighter than the factory part. Remember too, AE is offering a black chassis as a stand alone option so this motor plate will look great no matter which chassis you choose! I will post some pics of the one on my black chassis classic this weekend.

I like the body! I think its cool... But I also have become a fan of cab forward bodies and WOULD buy one of those if they made one for the RC10 as well... I think they would sell a crap load of them!

Hell, IMA start doing it anyway, just for fun!

Maybe a vintage Hirobo styled cab forward body... not a Kyosho blizzard styled cab forward body like modern styles though...
