That's awesome you've got a vintage RC10 buggy. When I was growing up, I had a Stadium Blitzer but my friend had a RC10 buggy. He actually still has it. Classic Well, I'm about ready for the comp tomorrow. I plugged in the Bronco to make sure everything was kosher after the waterproofing and reassembly. I actually had no front steering or servo winch. They run off the same BEC. I found that the + and - wires going to the BEC had become disconnected. I soldered them this time, so they should be good now. The front steering returned, but the servo winch still didn't work. I unplugged it from the winch controller and tested it straight from a battery, but all it did was make the tinyest sound when the juice first hit it, and that was it. No movement. Also, the winch controller got hot when I'd hit the button to spool the winch. I don't think the controller is at fault; I think it's the winch servo. With the addition of the inner fenders and electroncs tray, it's burried in the center of my rig. I don't think it will be getting fixed before the comp. |

Josh, I hope you had fun and did well at the comp last weekend. I'm sad to see you have your truck back up on the block If I had the money I'd buy it from you in a heart beat. Good luck to you |

It is sad that it's up for sale, but not everyone has an addiction. :-)

The last comp went about the same as the two before it. Ok, but not great. It was the last one in the winter series. I thought since the series was over I'd see if it would sell. Just not feeling too interested |

I am sorry to hear it is up for sale again. Are you done with crawling all together or looking for a new project. When I am bored or dissapointed I just build a new one. Sometimes this just makes me more dissapointed in my skills, but once in a while I get lucky. Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk 2 |

Thanks guys. I am done with it, at least for now. I really enjoy seeing everyone at the comp and talking to people on the forums; that's my favorite part of all this. As far as driving and wrenching, life is busy and I'd rather focus my small amount of free time on other interests. |
