Oww its a thing of beauty.. Mine is so far behind that its silly, I've got so much to do to even get close to the polished example you've put together there mate. Phil I think you should forget your Losi and just run this all the time.. At this rate we may just need one heat dedicated to RC10s...

Losi VLA Arms - with the outer hole cut away
Losi VLA Truck hubs - inner hole cut away B4 axles - it works but a bit short, B4.1 units should be better. You need to grind the axle spacers a bit, otherwise you're just a bit to wide with this configuration Edit: found the parts list: Quote:

Hmm, That car look slightly familiar I'll get some more pics of mine up when it's complete, hopefully by the end of next week i wanna give it a test run. I'm sure you dont want to see all the little shots of every stage of the build that i took! Balders, looking good there fella! Would love to have a worlds chassis on mine, but my proper worlds car is my winter project so my milled chassis is staying where it is! Lastly Craig, not this friday dude next week, hopefully you'll be able to have a go on it then |

So the point of all these mods is to emulate the original RPM long arm then ??

Si: I have been trying to find out the same thing. From what I have read they are "the same as Worlds" not sure if that means they are the same as AE wide track wishbones (as fitted to the Worlds car) or if they are the same as the RPMwishbones or if in fact the RPM and the AE wide track wishbones are the same. Really need a RC10 boffin involved at this point. Any idea CAINE? JANUS? Anyone? |

My understanding was that it was as close as you could get to creating this geometry
or this but I could be wrong! |

What's with the trend for truck based cars? If you use a truck nose do they not end up longer? Don't the truck shock towers cock up the shock angles?

G, I think the wheelbase ends up pretty much the same as they redrill the mounting holes, the truck shock tower is used with wider track front wishbones so the lower mounting is further out than with the standard buggy width.

Most people run the RPM worlds front tower which is slightly lower not the truck front tower, I don't have an RPM tower yet so left the truck one on for now. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode...USA_Episode_1/ - it reminded me of Top Gear about 2-3 years ago when the films still seemed a little un scripted and they look like they are having a laugh.. They are already on season 2 in the states and they do get better as they all gel. Jumping a Cadalac Coupe was funny! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRaSV...eature=related
