New 1/10th scale project!

[Sinist3r]

Hey all. I will be posting some pictures soon. I just got a free RC in RTR form from a friend at work. I got a baha blue Exceed RC Sunfire Brushed version. I'm going to be brushless swapping this very soon, and modding it like crazy. It's nice to take something smaller than my Rampage XT out from time to time. Plus, I wanted a 10th scale to run with my son's Volcano EPX Pro. Pictures to come soon.


Sidenote: The Rampage will be going under the knife soon for some pretty wicked upgrades.

Yep I have a 1/8 Thunder Tiger that's fun to run and am building another from kit form

Cool I have an old 1/10 nitro stadium truck thats quick fun and easy for neighborhood bash , may convert to brushless , let's see it , with set up details

Here's the old Thunder Tiger

Bald tyres and all

It's 1/8 not 1/10

She's had more hits that Elvis Presley - the chassis has been straightened in the vice more times that I can remember and she still screams.

Hence the new kit to put this motor in.

Very nice! Next up, I'd like to dable in some 1/8 scale action. The addiction has come back to me... Lol

She looked a lot better a few years ago.

Gets used on the beach hence the rusty bits.

Wow pretty good shape . Going back into airplane stuff. I found the original manual for kyosho rampage from like '94/95. At the time I got the bearing kit and thought it was a waste of $. Still rolling today! Ball tires and all! Ha!

Servo saver , shocks and diffs assembled.

I'd much rather work on 1/5 diffs

Getting there

Suspension and wheels on.

Don't tell the missus I had it on the lounge (sofa)!

Ready for a test run.

Just gotta wait for this tropical cyclone to go away so I can go outside.
