RC Newbie
Hey guys. Found my old Team Associated RC10GT at my parents house I built from a kit somewhere in the late 90s. I saved up all my money and built it over a christmas vacation and now I'm thinking about going through it and refreshing and making it run again. I built an electric truck 2 years before but I sold it to get this one. I didn't know anything at the time and I could only ever get this truck to run a tank before it rattled itself apart. It probably has less than 10 tanks through it. I tried with minimal effort to get it running maybe around 2006 after it sat and could get it going with some fresh fuel and gave up after I got a blister from the pull start.
I think the engine is a HPI nitro star 15.
I'd like to fix things that need to be fixed and then figure out how to make it better. I'd probably just be taking it with me on weekends when I go to a real race track to mess around with free time.
Any help or guidance on where to start would be very much appreciated. Maybe telling me to trash it would help too if you think it's a waste of time. I don't know how much these things have changed over the last 15 years.
Electronics will probably be where I start to see if the controls still work.
Anyways, here's some pictures of what I have:
