SCX-10 rebuild - tube buggy This started off as a Honcho SCX-10 with a few upgrades and mods. It was wheeled hard and held up well. It then sat on the shelf for years until I recently got the motivation to rebuild it the way that I originally intended. Visually it was ugly as F, but performed well… https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...g4VFFkCere1Ii3 Anyway, here are the specs and the rebuild. Specs : Stock axles Stock gear case Stock ESC 18 tooth pinion Hitech 7955TG servo Castle BEC (set to 6v) Tekin 35t motor Custom 3 link front with panhard 3.5oz weights front / 1.75 rear Proline 2.2 TSL’s |
Chassis stripped down to the frame. Rear section cut off and started to tube it out. Always wanted to learn how to braze and this was the perfect way to do it. Tube is standard 3/16 brake https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...Bh64JzSQF0otsZline. https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...EzFUh6ecTUoJ3c https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...V3ntU70DwLWigE https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...K71cNu7N6KwcVo |
Body panels mocked up and then traced on a .20 aluminum sheet https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...fdKQIWeADFRulw https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...mm1kohhsqeXm1H Chassis cleaned up and painted https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...hLChH4pN6OyAgU Drivetrain and wiring tucked in https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...Z366KYzefP289w https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...UWWbjZJFKZrdEj |
Skins painted and installed. All done, it was a fun build, hope you guys enjoy it. https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...TPq9iKH3E8T32I https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...aUr0yhAf3DOxih https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...uegb_cxTyeNkqo |
Re: SCX-10 rebuild - tube buggy Turned out awesome! Nice work. I just started reviving a 1.9 first gen honcho so this thread is great motivation. |

A couple more pics - I was itching for a real test run and had to get it outside. It's very balanced and has a very low COG - super pleased with how it performed https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...RlgcptwKTgVC1i https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...SX4lSMqj1EeU2Q |
Re: SCX-10 rebuild - tube buggy Added some much needed splash guards. Used rubber roofing for this https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...x9Lhl5xypHOFjq Also designed and had the wife print out some vinyl graphics to give it a little flair. Really happy with how they turned out https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...54e1J1OEKClA8K https://drive.google.com/uc?export=d...Mn_2-ozV0XurRv |
