First test run went great till I decided to try and jump a curb/ramp. The first 3 try's went very well. The car jumps very level to my surprise. Then I got over confident and lunched it full steam and not straight. Now it's time to order new rod ends and a front shock mount.
Do you notice any handling differences between the RC10 graphite team car and the RC10 team car with tub chassis (both fitted with white nylon parts throughout)?
I haven't driven either yet. Been a while...greetings all :)

I would say the tub chassis has more flex and probably a lot bigger sweet spot for setup
Hey all,
After a conversation at work after one guy bought a Tamiya Frog, I remembered my old Nikko Black Fox I have up in the loft.
Brought it down and loaded it with batteries, but it seems dead as a door nail. Light comes on the remote, and there...

Thanks for the replies - the dead capacitors theory certainly sounds logical.
Here is one of my newest additions to my RC10 collection.
Got it from a buy now auction right off the bay. I think it is a nice modified car and I got the information that it was driven by a former Italien Team Associated driver.
I will only clean...

Looks like you have most of everything you need to get started. I would get a new battery and charger and give it a go.
Here we go following on from my other thread(Where I bought all kinds of stuff) I now have lots of scrubbed up and cleaned parts all ready to assemble. I should have enough for a runner but also to rebuild a Team car into a runner. Just going to...

Ah cheers, I've got four here and they all look the same. I'll fit em and see what it's like. Learning all the time! 8)
Just wanted to share this one again with you guys. I had long lost pictures of the car and as I paid a visit to the attic I thought I would quickly snap some pictures. The car was used for racing by a fellow Belgian racer. He also gave me this...

So this chassis looks like the lower deck from a Composite Craft '91 worlds conversion chassis set. Is there any connection between the two? Just curious. Did CC grind these out for AE?
While they look a bit similar they’re actually very...
