My RC10

[Welshy40]

Well its been ongoing for a while and cost me a small fortune to do but as I did get the opportunity to race Masami I really wanted something to remind me. Its also been hard to do as no real chassis pictures exist so unsure exactly how he did his but using Brian Kinwald, Cliff Letts and other team drivers chassis pictures came up with this.

So minus the shell, undertray, wing, wing buttons, cut down TH1 wheel hubs (being made), ko fet choke wiring and pinion it will be when finished an pretty close replica.

Motor was made and worked on at a tc national in the USA by Mike Reedy and would gather it made the A so adds a bit more class to this, esc has been supplied by a previous national winner, servo was sold by Kevin Moore on to someone im aquainted with so cars got a bit more history added. KO receiver with a handmade case.

Hope you like what you see.

Looking good James. You need the little Masami sticker on the front tower, and how close a replica are you creating are you going to break the top deck?

Stickers im going to get done, have a contact so will see what he can do from the pictures of Masami's shell and towers. Well everything else is spot on including the screws, like the wing mount holder screw. No chance am i going to break that. Cheers for sourcing me the layshaft.
