  • Introducing the #radioshack golden arrow 1/10 frame buggy we got from our friend ‪@AddamsPlayground‬ . Plans are to make it brushless and do a “resto-mod” vs a restoration. I always wanted one of these as a kid but never got one.

      Thanks buddy. It’s torn apart on the bench. I gotta get some sort of steering rod ends and balls. Thought I had some stashed but can’t find em

    That's awesome as these buggies did not survive very well. Looks pretty cool!!

    • @IowaBudgetRCBashers
      @IowaBudgetRCBashers  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Most got rode hard and put away wet, but this one survived. I’m looking forward to breathing new life into it

      They were faster than their Nikko and Tamiya brethren back when they were new. I won’t beat on it too hard but still want it to be fun

    Looking forward to seeing your progress. Looks like it's in great shape. I hope that motor doesn't destroy that gearbox!! :)

    • @IowaBudgetRCBashers
      @IowaBudgetRCBashers  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      These gearboxes are rock solid, and use the same internals as most Tamiya’s like the hornet, hopper, etc.. it’ll be a bit tamer though cause I’ll run it on nimh vs lipo

    You're hobbyup-grading it, cool. I had 3 Sagittas at one time. One my sisters boyfriend gave me, one I bought at regular price, and one I got on clearance for 40 bucks. All they needed were some better shocks, they had good power and speed.

    • @IowaBudgetRCBashers
      @IowaBudgetRCBashers  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I always wanted one of those as well. Pretty much the same car.. hard to believe these things are almost 40 years old now

    Man I had this bigger red buggy from Radio Shack liked something like that! Very cool project dude!
    Cool info on it like a little history from the 80s 😁
    Holy with that motor won’t it fly??

    • @IowaBudgetRCBashers
      @IowaBudgetRCBashers  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Tge Red Arrow must’ve been what you had. They were also 1/10 it had a mono shock in the rear. It should be fast. I won’t run it on lipo though only nimh so it will be a bit tamer

      Yea it must have been rhe 1/10 ohhh the good old days radio shack……worked all summer to by that one. Was like a $100 in 1990……emailed re the elf today, to see how our good friend was doing. I’m are you have but if you haven’t lately send him your thanks!!!

    Should be fun!! I think your motor won't work with the tamiya esc the tamiya esc is for censored motors and yours is a non censored motor so I think you will need another esc to run it.

    • @IowaBudgetRCBashers
      @IowaBudgetRCBashers  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      From what I read it’ll work, but it may not be as controlled and have some lag . Guess we will see

  • @rcguygarage
    @rcguygarage 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I can't remember if I had this. I know I had every Tyco Turbo Hopper and similar. But GUY It's not called radio shack It's called rat shack 🤣🤪😂

    A bit of a Hornet clone, how much of it was made to almost match it.

    • @IowaBudgetRCBashers
      @IowaBudgetRCBashers  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      They’re very similar to a hornet. They’re a Nikko f10 chassis which had several names over the years. Also they’re identical to the Traxxas cat their first rtr car

    Run it hard no shelf queen please.

    • @IowaBudgetRCBashers
      @IowaBudgetRCBashers  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I’ll run it, but my vintage stuff sees mostly shelf life, because the plastic is weak
