Rc10t....b6?

Post by rix86 »

Hi, I'm Rick.
I'm maybe making a long story longer here, but here goes.
I got an rc10t years ago. Ran it, got into other stuff, and it got put away. This last year I decided to dust it off. Found one battery that charged. Then it ran for like 6 seconds.
So....I decided to repower it brushless with lipos.
After getting that figured out (cheap stuff, but good reviews) holy crap this thing moved.
I'm just a basher, so I..... Bashed. Now back when I bought it, I bought a ton of spares. So I bashed away, had a few small breakages.
Then I sorta launched it off a 8 or 10 foot embankment and bounced it off the roof at near top speed. 3600 kv brushless with a 3s lipo.
Broke the frame at the rear suspension mount when the shock tower took the hit at 30? Mph
Shocking (pun intended) I know.
Now, I'm giving this thing to my son for Xmas. )I got myself a Kraton)
Now I put this thing back together with metal ties. I'll try to post pics.
But if I wanted to get a new or used tub....I don't know what version this thing is. B6?
When I was a kid I replaced my totally worn out and destroyed hornet with the old championship edition gold anodized tub rc10 buggy. So I've got a bit of nostalgic fondness.
So I was hoping to get some pointers on what version this is.
And if I should bother replacing the tub or not.

It's a T4, should be plenty of parts around to fix it up.
I was old school - when old school wasn't cool !

That could definitely use some TLC (and a new chassis :wink: )

Just occurred to me ..B would be buggy wouldn't it? LoL
It's had a hard life, no denying it. Probably has much more abuse in it's future as well.
Foster boy is getting an arrma voltage for Xmas too.
Thanks though. Off to find parts.
