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

So as the Losi guy I am, I just got a NIB Worlds kit I havent had a new RC10 in 20 years, is their any info or advice I should no before I build it? things I should door order to fix any short commings with the kit. mine has the upgraded trans parts it came with a new top shaft and gear box.

Tap the steering bellcranks with a 8-32 tap. I'd you don't it expands and even bearings will be a tight fit

Ream the suspension with a .127 if you have one

Grab a 6570 idler too, the stock idler was a source of friction. If you haven't seen my comparison video- I quickly show three variations; stock, USA case stock idler, and USA case 6570 idler. The difference is mind blowing

cool video I have the top shaft and new case I will order the idle gear thank you

Isn't the USA case part#6565? What about the top shaft?

I dont no my kit came with a loose B4 shaft and a RC10T trans case for some reason? the only difference I see in the cases are one has a plug to the top shaft one doesnt? I dont no RC10's so I am kinda lost. I built the front end tonight the new shocks are great but the steering bellcranks suck the bushings were so tight they wouldnt turn I replaced them with bearrings now smooth as glass.

Is this the correct idler gear, also do you have part number for the case by any chance?

The case is a 6565 and the idler is a 6570. The idler gear that you linked from eBay is also the correct part. It will not work in the new China case, only the USA case...Which is the 6565

Well I put mine together with all of the kit parts I used the new B4 upper shaft that they sent wit the kit ad the china case. As much as I hate to say it this is the smoothest rc car I have ever put together. all of the suspension and trans is silky smooth. the new shocks ae wonderful compared to anything AE has ever done before.

Good to hear ya got a good one

Great to hear Rick...now send it to me, your a Losi guy!

no problem what are you going to send me to play with while your playing with mine?

Glad to here the car went together without any problems. I am glad you got the kit with the right parts to correct any issues that were found. Now we need pics of this thing.

Thats it. The stock worlds case has a different part number (6564)

6565 is old moulding USA case
6564 is new "improved" China case
