Default Information on RPM Parts

Hi all.

I just thought I would share the information on this build and the differences between the RPM Parts being used.

I would just like to share this info as well.

In 1991 the IFMAR Worlds was held in Detroit. Yes the never released STEALTH car was used by Mashami if that's the correct spelling and a few other Team Associated drivers, but not all.

So questions have been asked as to why RPM used the heading RPM 91 WORLDS.

Well its simple, the Associated drivers who did not have the STEALTH used the RPM 91 WORLDS Parts. So there you have it..........

So there are 2 RPM wishbones front and rear for the Associated RC10.

This version I'm using,

1.RPM 91 WORLDS front and rear.!!!!!!!
&
2.RPM RC10 front and rear wishbones. (Team Car)

The main difference is the length of the wishbones front and rear.

1.RPM 91 WORLDS

Front using the RC10T bulkhead and Nose plate due to length of front arms.
Rear using template to cut rear of chassis due to length of rear wishbones.
This allows the width to be the same once fitted, otherwise would be to wide if fitted straight onto a Team Car RC10. Also the wishbones on the 91 worlds only have 2 mounting holes.

2.RPM RC10 Arms.

These are a direct replacement for the TEAM CAR or to make the CLASSIC have the same width as the TEAM CAR. Basically and up grade. Also has 3 mounting holes in wishbones

You will notice the difference in length in the rear wishbones I'm picturing and the rear of the chassis cut down. Also a few stickers fitted to the chassis as I did back then and the battery cup fitted.You will see how much wider the rear wishbone is compared the standard RC10 WORLDS Wishbone.

Hope that makes sense...........
