PW- Are you making it out to Outback in July for the Jconcepts race? I need to plan on the old Schumacher reunion:nod::nod: Dominic, Mo, Wittman and myself will be there. We can form Voltron if you come:lol::lol::lol::lol:

PW,


I noticed that the Vintage RC10 Bellcrank doesn't list the bearing size.

If we need to replace the bearings, can we get the dimension? Also, I was able to get a group buy on the recently released 10T parts, and wanted to order the bellcranks set, but they were out, does JC plan to make more, or were the parts only a limited run?

Got the new 10T body and the towers, can wait to get my team colors thrown on and add a vintage ST to my arsenal.

I'm positive the 10T bellcranks are vastly different than the 10 version.

Actually the T2 and GT steering shortened up to mimic the size/stroke/ackerman of the buggy. I use buggy steering in my 10T and love it (and T2).

Bearings, 1/4 x 3/8 in, flanged - AE bearings

The JC bellcranks were a limited run.

Does anybody know if the finished body for the dex210 v1 is the same height over the esc as standard? Really like the finisher body but it looks a little low at the side pods and I run a fan.

Thanks in advance.

JConcepts B5m worlds body
 
Just bought and painted a JC worlds body for my B5m and it doesn't fit over the slipper. I read on their website retrospectively, that this particular body is for a lay down style transmission. Has anyone modified this body to fit a standard 3 or 4 gear trans? If so, could you please post or PM me pictures? Thanks.

I personally like the way Cav cut his, but you can see Spencer left a little more material. I attached one of mine and it's cut much like Cavs.

question for you guys, the track i run at I am looking for some advice on JConcepts tires that could work. The common proline or aka tires for 1/8 can range from Calibers / City Blocks to something like a proline stunner / AKA Grid iron. In general, Compound usage for the taller tread types are M4s / Super Softs and smaller treads like an M3 / Soft. "Soft" in the taller treads have too much slip.

Any tips on what JConcepts tires to go with? I was thinking about trying that Metrix tire on sale on the JConcepts site but shipping is killer lol so may see what i can find local. That, more maybe some chasers.

As for 1/10, It looks like closet tire to an proline m4 caliber would be the Goosebump in Green compound?

Track is mostly AKA but I am liking what i have for Jconcepts stuff right now, so trying to get on point.

Also, how well do the stock foam inserts that come with the 1/10 goosebumps hold up? Track is very rough and loose, so figuring going with those.

For 8th scale, I run Reflex in 99.99999% of the tracks I go to. No matter what everyone else is on :lol:

I do practice alot with Remix (green compound) on my nitro car because they last a long time.

Cain 05-23-2016 11:03 AM

that remix looks like something that could be the ticket as when the 1/8's get to run, its pretty much dry by that point. Kind of reminds me at least from what I can tell from the pins like what I see on my SCT with the proline stunners, maybe taller pins?

I'll give these a look.

-I would suggest Subcultures in green (super soft) for a caliber/city block replacement.

-I would suggest Reflex, Triple D's, Lil' Chasers for small pin tires in green and blue.

-Goose Bumps and Flipouts would be a good 1/10th buggy tire in green compound if you are on Calibers. The stock insert is recommended for tracks that these particular tread patterns work.

Unfortunately it will be a long wait, maybe see something for next indoor season/winter :blush:.
