Nikko F10 Rhino - Seeking Assistance
Posted: Sun Jan 17, 2021 4:39 pm
Hello All,
I was given this Nikko F10 Rhino in 1987, one outing a rear suspension was broken (I was a small child) and never repaired, put into storage only for me to dig it out a few days ago.
I have a 4 year old son now and I've love to see him play with it for sentimental reasons.
- I have no idea where the transmitter is, battery, box or chargers so I assume it is straight forward enough to replace the entire electronics system for new?
- Needs all new tyres - believe wheels and tyres from a Tamiya Hornet could fit?
- Need the rear shock, one is broken. My first thoughts, I can 3D print a replica of my undamaged one? Any potential off the shelf replacements?
- Not worried about cost, happy to order spares from anywhere globally
Looking forward to any replies.
All the best.
