I just went through this this summer, had an rc10t as a kid and wanted something to do on the weekends besides shoot and drink.

Quote HistoryQuoted: There are a lot of 3D STLs on thingiverse for RC10 suspension and even the stealth tranny housing. Is it possible to find the gear sets to build the Stealth tranny still? If so I could likely build up a fun car again once I get my printer set to print Nylon. |

Damn you ARF.com..... damn you!!! Prior to my 10+ years of membership, I never realized how much 'stuff' I was missing out on and had to add to my life... First it was gun gear... (shoulder things that go up, etc..) Then it was astronomy/telescopes.... Then smokers.... Then bbq charcoal grills... Then flat top grills.... LED Tvs.... More gun gear.... Home theater NAS systems... Home security systems.... I can't even remember it all... Now midlife crisis rc cars.... Damn you I say! Damn you!!!! Some of my Grail RC stuff is in the thousands for original NIB items. Uses is sometimes almost as much. |

I'm now 40 and looking to relive my youth (very early years) and get an RC10 remote control car. Lol. I had so much fun with the one I had in the early 90's and for sentimental reasons have had thoughts lately of getting another. What say the hive? Nice gold chassis Rc10's look to be really expensive, although I don't know that they actually sell for the high prices. Unfortuanetly it appears I am too late for the recent re-issue that was released. |

I had no idea the RC10 was still around 
Back in the 80s I worked in a R/C hobby shop. I built and sold a ton of RC10s for our customers. Team Associated/Losi was king back then. In college I bought an Ofna Hodr gas car that was huge (1:8?) and 4WD but I never got it running. It was supposed to do 80 mph... |

I've got a reissue Lunchbox that is a ton of fun and an original Stadium Blitzer that I need some parts for. I always wanted a Kyosho Optima. I wish they would reissue those, they're expensive as hell if you can find them. |

Any pointers on how I could go about sneaking a Losi Five-T into the house?

Guys I just picked this up. Its dirty, has a broken front rim, and the front sway bar is messed up. I now need to get it cleaned up and figure what electronics are needed to make it run. Any suggestions on where to go from here?

I just switched out my radio for a futaba 3pv, really nice controller, my crawler is getting spectrum dx5c. Really good radios for the money. |

Wait to see if Team Associated will do another re-release of the Worlds Car or the original gold pan.
I'm the same way as you, I got bit by the nostaligic bug and ended up picking up a World's Car. The World's car was the pinnacle of production RC10s. Had all of the top parts (Stealth transmission, black tub, upgraded suspension, anodized shocks, misc graphic parts, etc..) I picked mine up a few years back for $180 as a rolling chassis. They may pop on ebay from time but most are overpriced. The pinnacle of RC10 is still Misami's "Stealth Car." You can actually buy the parts now to make a copy of it. Here is a cool thread on RC10 talk. They have a great vintage forum btw. https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=37210 Such a sexy car at the time. I remember even RC Car Action couldn't get pictures of the chassis under the body because it was so top secret. Almost a 30 year old design yet looks so modern.
