RC10 4wd with Kyosho parts by PRP

Post by prp »

Hi guys,

A new project for now, I work on a 4wd RC10 who can be run in the 1986/87 yeras.

Some Scratch build are made from these years, like Cliff Lett with his RC10 with Optima parts
to make it a 4wd just before the WC in Romsey.

All the parts of this project are from this period:

I use the diffs of the Optima (1 diff and 1 one way), the front knuckles and C hubs, front U join shaft and chain.
For the rear transmission I'm inspired by the Radiant and RPS transm, I use the small pinion from the Radiant, and made a spur gear mount in alloy.

The car look like the Mike Christensen car from the WC in Romsey.
I must repair a Novak 1 and find an Airtronics receiver for.

I don't know how I can fix the cells ( 4+3) on the chassis for now

And for the body an Andy's Renegade...

very nice pierre. Do you have some pictures of the cars your referring to also?

Your project reminds me I still have 3 trackmaster transmissions in my stash. I hope to 1 day put 2 together in a belt driven 4WD buggy
