I dug out an old Losi XXX-T, has a blown ball diff and all old electronics, but I can’t get any parts due to the lockdown. Cool old 1/10 truggy.

My son went through a phase where he bought all the high end Traxxas cars, then after about 6 months of launching them 30 feet into the sky off dirt mounds he sold them all.
I have a Slasher he tricked out for me, and last week I told him to fix the steering controller then sell it. RC cars remind me of some of the girls I dated in my youth- way fun and capable of doing mind blowing things, but I got tired of the maintenance and moved on. Laughing

I still have all my Mugen 1/8th scale buggies and truggies , but I've been on this little kick of maybe wiping the dust off some of my bigger electric airplanes and going and getting some flying in. No room to build any big gassers at the moment , but I do still have most my bigger 50cc - 116cc motors , electronics and so forth. My smaller electrics right now would be a great thing to do during all this stuff.

The one that is only a slider is my brushless project and the one that is without the body is my slash that I picked up yesterday for 125$ that I’m just gonna leave as is and buy aluminum parts as the plastic ones break

I’ve been going a little overboard with the RC builds the past couple months ...I just enjoy building them and not so much driving them. Plan on building a showcase to display them in, plus others I’ve built in the past.

Here is the RC10 B6.1DL I finished up. Don’t ever want to think how much I spent on this car..




Next I built this Blackfoot:





Now working on this one:
