I used to have a rc10t2 back in the day lol it was right when the 8ths scale gas "buggies" or whatever they were techincally considered were BLOWING UP when I got out.
I have since had a son and hes almost 6 I would really like to get back into r/c cars so I can get myself a bit more active !
in any case I prefer trucks as they dont roll as much and are easier for me, I will go back to buggies etc once I am used to it all again.
With that being said I wanted to know where to start. I have to buy everything over again - before I used a light bulb setup soldered to decharge, and I actually made a dc power supply from an atx power supply..
I have to start over completely so please anyone that has been in this position before I appreciate any help as I am really hoping someone points me in the right direction.
I have a hobby town usa here and I used to buy battery cells and assemble my own batteries before to save on battery costs which seemed to help a lot. I do not plan to get rid of this stuff until I die this time
It seems we have a ASQC track here for quarter scales which is WAY to big for me. and sep facility with indoor carpet track that looks really neat. needless to say I'm very excited. I used to spend all day at the rc track from the time they opened until closing as a kid!
I am about to buy a classic 40w Weller soldering iron to kick off the shopping unless there is something "better" now - they are around 33$ on amazon currently
