Is that a b5m gearbox?
|
YZ2, looks interesting too, would love to try this in the TRF!
|
Looks excellent and well thought. I raced my RC10 today on grass be it !! and the rear traction this buggy has is unbelievable. It also rotates very quickly and has excellent turn in. I think this could be a very good move Marko.......:thumbsup::thumbsup:
Where will you be running it indoors ?? |
Cheers Mark, yes looks right at home in the old RC10!
It'll be on carpet at Maritime raceway, I'll get some video of it in action once it's completed I need a chassis nose for it if anyone has a spare?? |
It's all bolted in now, the chassis has gone off for powder coating, next update in 2 weeks

Cant wait to see this finished.......:thumbsup:
|
Nice work Mark be very interested to see how it compares to a modern car on track, if it works and i hope it does will be interesting to thr look on other faces when it over takes them lol
|
Nice, looks like this conversion is done with attention to detail.
|

:drool: Holy Cow Zebra Batman :drool:
That look awesome Marko. Awesome !!!!! |
Any up dates Marko. Have you run it yet matey..
|
Got a little bit done on it since the last photo, front end is complete now, just waiting on some bits from the U.S. and need some B4.1 driveshafts and we are about there then
Shouldn't be too long now till its maiden run |
|
Looks nice, with that contrast between black and white.
|
Well after being busy on other projects and finishing race bikes I decided to make some progress on the car, it's pretty much ready for the gearbox install now
http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/y...D1DF728E3A.jpg |
Looks awesome Marko. I bet it will be awesome and surprise a few at the track. Be very interesting to see how it goes. Will you be running it Marko.
|
Looking good mate.
Does the b5m gearbox need any modding to make it work, or will it drop in fairly easily? |
Yes it'll be raced, I'll get some video of it running in the next couple of weeks
It's a Yokomo yz2 gearbox in the car, you need some careful measurements and to trim the chassis to clear the slipper Not looked at a B5 gearbox but should be a fairly similar process |
Nice project, but..
What category will you race this car in? It's not a vintage any more.. |
I'll just race it against the modern stuff, it won't be my full time race car, just a fun project and something different to do to a RC10

I'm shocked no one bought this I was very tempted but I've just got a stack of projects to work through first :bored:

At last we have an update after a Ebay yz2 gearbox came up for sale!
Gearbox is in! http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/y...3A728588DF.jpg http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/y...2CA9B2B165.jpg http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/y...E36B982D2D.jpg |
Rear tower and shocks mounted up, Test fitted the motor and lipo, not far away now!

Yes Marko,
Looking stunning matey.........:thumbsup: |
That's really really cool :thumbsup: Where did you get your holders for the lipo shorty battery?
|
Very nice to see it come along Mark, bet it goes very well.
Lee |
Cheers guys, just need to order Yokomo wings mounts, waterfall brace and get the radio installed and we are about there!
The battery holders are stock rc10 and the thumb screws are from the B5, just spaced out the shorty with foam but may re drill the chassis so they are a snug fit against the shorty |
I think i have a new brace i can shoot you over buddy.
lee |
Cheers mate, all parts welcome! 👍
I'll message you on FB |
Progress so far:
http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/y...A22EDFC6EF.jpg Big thanks so Lee for sending me over the waterfall brace |
Esc is in and tapped out the b44 battery posts to m3 and put on the B5 thumb screws
http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/y...11209DCA23.jpg |
Welcome anytime mate, and the car looks great, eager to hear how she goes.
Lee |
That is EPIC. I love the rc10 format chassis for some reason so this has got my rain a buzzing. Would love to know how it drives :thumbsup:
|
Well its ready to hit the track!! I will take my go pro and get some footage and post it up
I must say a big thanks to Gainsy for the shell, I put a wanted advert up to buy one and he got in touch and offered me the shell in the pic for free, I offered to pay for it and at least cover the postage, he wouldn't take it and wanted to see the project complete, its people like this that make this hobby so cool, what a top guy http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/y...522207AE10.jpg http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/y...D2A7EE386B.jpg http://i783.photobucket.com/albums/y...8F3EA7DB4F.jpg |
