Newer brands of 1/12 Foams - what are your experiences etc.

Quote

Post by drbelleville » Mon Feb 13, 2012 9:46 pm

Any one running the new stuff?

Ennetti, MobGums, Parma PSE, Matrix, Xceed, etc.

Paul L. just started his Gravity RC line, so those are still to come.

I currently run CRC foams on old Jaco, TRC and Johns BSR Wheels

Any thoughts guys, would appreciate some input

So to date myself a little, I was brought up on a diet of Marui, Tamiya, Yokomo, Kyosho, Losi and Associated and only recently really got back into things and there is seemingly a whole new crop of brands out there that I have never heard of and I...

I bought a sheet, stuck it on the bottom of my runner world car chassis, cut around the screw holes where screws already were. Only problem is the glue is super sticky when I was cutting around the screws and i'm sure it will attract tons of dirt....

Last post

I use a sand blaster. It's very quick and works every time, plus no sticky residue or fumes :P .

And no pesky chassis left either, right? :mrgreen:

its called a lightened chassis that don't look like cheese. :lol:

Any body got a source for 1/10 pan car foam tires. I have a pile of rims that are screaming out for new shoes. Looked all over but haven't found anything.

I have a Futaba 3PL FHSS system. Am I stuck with only Futaba FHSS receivers or are there cheaper aftermarket alternatives that are fully compatible?

Last post

I only know of the ones from Hobby King that are compatible for the FASST systems. I have used the FrSky ones with great results.

The Futaba FHSS ones you can get pretty cheap on eBay for around 30 dollars though.

First post

I wanted to know if anyone has tips for putting foam donuts on the stock 3-piece 10T wheels? Can you simply build up layers of foam to fill in the gap between the two halves, then put the donut over this foam?

Last post

if you could find the right size of foam, i think you could pull it off. you should try it on some wheels that you don't want. practice makes perfect. you might have to get creative with a tire lathe and a dremel.

for the 3 piece wheels: you could...

First post

I'm still tinkering with my eBay rescue RC12LW that only came with three wheels/tires, and the rears are of the old two-screw variety. I think I've managed to find a way to assemble a working diff and thrust using the original rear axle and RC4Less...

Last post

Thanks. I ended up getting some more modern Xceed mounted foams (48mm I think) and will just deal with adjusting the ride height. It's actually not as far off as I thought it would be.

Greetings all! I've been having fun lately with my recently resurrected Factory Team TC3 that I've had since it was new in '92 or so? I think the TC3 is a great car. Very adjustable, light, works great, etc, etc. Enjoyed it so much that I bought a...

Well that's a bummer to find out. Still, I'd take Taiwan made any day over mainland China. Most of the high end gaming computer motherboards are sourced from Taiwan.

This project started out as collaborative experiment with scr8p. The idea was to test various combinations of parts and figure out which ones would allow the use of those Delrin Klien arms he discovered at Dynotech, together with B4 CVDs, wheels,...

Thanks for being so prompt scr8p!

My friend Scott Sjobakken was one of the guys who started this website and put me on to what you all have done.

This is my first vtg buggy build (not counting my Turbo Optima that I built when it wasn't vintage)....
