RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

I am wondering if you guys can help list some 1/10 cars which came with cages (half, or full) or even just roll over hoops. I am trying to get some inspiration for an idea which may or may not happen. But if I have some names to google I can have a think. Clearly metal would be cooler (if it is light) but I am also gaining ideas from some of the plastic shapes out there too. I am thinking of making something to go over the rear half of an RC10. Maybe even make it out of carbon or light metal.

Ok I will start with the Ultima:




Thanks

Wrong. You are supposed to start with the Scorpion.

Thanks! Yes that looks good...



I see it is half metal and half plastic.

Here are some to google, hard to copy image links on this silly phone

Hirobo Zerda
Hirobo Tomcat

Marui galaxy
Marui samurai

Kyosho circuit 10 wildcat (my favorite "realistic" cage buggy)
Kyosho Icarus
Kyosho javelin

Ayk Viper

Mugen bulldog

Could get aftermarket rear bars to make it two-thirds metal.



Tamiya had the Rough Rider/Superchamp, and Hot Shot.

Tamiya Hotshot, Supershot, FAV, Wild One, SRB (hoop and rear cage)
Nichimo Spirit, Exceed, Midships
Axial EXO, Wraith
AYK 566B (similar to Tamiya SRB)

The Marui with the cage was the Galaxy; the Hunter had a Lexan body.
