Robobugs.Net - Radio Control

Latest Update July 4, 2009

New Additions to the Site!

Cool Extras Gallery - First RC10 Ever Made, the R/C car from the “Dead Pool” movie, and more!

Radio Controlled Trucks, Buggies, Cars, Scalers, Airplanes, and more. This site showcases photo galleries,

manuals for download, technical information, and my projects. Team Associated and Kyosho are a couple of my

favorite manufacturers. I have worked on or owned Tamiya, HPI, Traxxas, and many others during my 28 years in

the hobby.

My favorite radio control buggy would have to be the RC10 Gold Chassis. I have owned this model for 25 years

and counting. The aluminum chassis was easy to modify, and there were tons of companies making hop-ups and

custom parts. I also like the RC10GT series of trucks, and the street cars (TC3, NTC3, and Dual Sport).

Kyosho 1/8 scale buggies were, for a long time, the Kings of radio control buggies. With nearly 3HP and 4-wheel

drive, they would chew up a nice yard in an afternoon. Now, the HPI 5B is the nasty buggy to have. It weighs over

30lbs and is nearly 3ft long. It runs on a gasoline and 2 stroke oil mix for nearly an hour on a single tank of fuel.

The tank is about the size of the one on your weedeater, and so is the engine. It will throw a roost of pea gravel 50ft

or more and is best driven standing in the back of a pickup truck at 35+mph out a country dirt road.

I have many projects in the works, and need to take photos as they progress. I plan to add more Projects and more

Galleries in the near future so you may enjoy them with me. I use this site as my database for R/C stuff, and I use it

myself to remember and document projects and information. I will actively update the site as time allows, but the

Fall and Spring seasons are when I work my day job in heavy construction work. I rarely have time to work on the

computer then.

Enjoy!

Tech Tips - This is where I have gathered load of nice tips to make R/C more fun.

RC10 Tube Chassis Project - Solidworks meets brake line. A Tube Chassis like Real Racing made years ago.
