RC Idea Factory: Chassis update.
http://rcideafactory.blogspot.com/2010/11/chassis-update.html
Tuesday, November 30, 2010. I took a little time to sand the wood filler down on the chassis. Since my youngest daughter (7 months) was sleeping, I didn't break out the electric sander, so I quickly tired and decided that the experiment didn't warrant a perfect finish anyway. Out came the primer, and a few moments later this is what we have:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Where I am, when I am online. Cars in the Garage. View my complete profile.

RC Idea Factory: Progress on the Wild One chassis
http://rcideafactory.blogspot.com/2010/11/progress-on-wild-one-chassis.html
Wednesday, November 24, 2010. Progress on the Wild One chassis. A Little Chunky. Not that it's heavy, it LOOKS chunky. In fact, it is pretty lightweight. If the strength is good, this little number will be a winner. The next version will be made out of 3mm aircraft ply instead. In order to save weight, which will in turn make it less likely to break (I hope! November 29, 2010 at 6:20 PM. I was a bit skeptical on the Hornet chassis but this is pure art. Great work and good luck with the build.

RC Idea Factory: December 2010
http://rcideafactory.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 26, 2010. New Idea, Old School Looks, Modern Performance. Have you seen the Kyosho Ultima DB? Well if not, take a look at it. I'm into old school buggies, and buggies with cages I think are really cool in particular. If you are old enough or informed enough about vintage RC to be familiar with the original Kyosho Ultima, then this is somewhat of a throwback to the Ultima's roots. Sunday, December 19, 2010.

RC Idea Factory: Change of plans.
http://rcideafactory.blogspot.com/2010/10/change-of-plans.html
Friday, October 29, 2010. The bonus in this is that now I have ANOTHER project car! The Hornet. I'm thinking that a multi-link suspension may be connecting the rear end to the Hornet in a few weeks. Might even throw an independent wishbone, with upper link on the front. The original CRP hop up from back in the eighties is still available from HERE. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

RC Idea Factory: August 2009
http://rcideafactory.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 13, 2009. What I'm thinking about this week. Well, I've been scanning Ebay. Lately. I cannot believe. How much original RC10 parts and complete cars are fetching on there these days. One day I'm going to have to get one of those again. I was never a big Associated racer, but did one time sell off my second XX and switch into a RC10 World's Car. I found it a perfectly capable racer, even against the XX's. I eventually sold off that RC10 (Why'd I do that? Wednesday, August 5, 2009.

In the end, it was together, but not finished.literally, bare wood! I've drawn out all the parts for my. Wild One chassis on the material.
