The Ten4 project, in case you havent seen it yet
 
Here is the Ten4, a B44 and a RC10 collided and this is what it morphed into! A few parts are shapeways and the store will be open soon. The shock towers will be available from me. Robinson Racing is making the pulleys and idler gears. The rest is easily optained from your hobby shop of choice.

Is this going to be sold in kit form. If so how much is it expected to be as the MRS can start saving now for Christmas.......:D

Also what will you get in the kit.

Sorry if this has been asked...... Looks stunning........:thumbsup:

Peakey 25-07-2015 08:54 PM

It will be sold but you'll have to order the the plastics off shapeways and the rest from Jeff.

Very nice, what's a rough cost to build one of these?

gomachv 25-07-2015 09:25 PM

Assuming you have nothing to start with.....all prices approximate
$199 world's kit
$112 b44 and other oem parts from Tower, see list below
$40 shock towers
$100 shapeways printed parts
$50 pulleys and idlers

Prices are just estimates except I'm sure I can hit the $40 towers. The rest is out of my hands. Some may want their own take on it, so prices and items may change.

Awesome,

Welshy40 26-07-2015 09:41 AM

Looks good, almost identical to the mip design

OptimaFan 26-07-2015 10:41 AM

Nice. Btw, on the second picture, it seems the front belt pulley gets pulled a little back and seems to make a little angle, due to belt tension?

gomachv 26-07-2015 01:24 PM

Pulleys are just sitting there in the pic with no idler or shaft. Prototype pulleys are in the mail from Robinson Racing so I'll update soon

OptimaFan 26-07-2015 02:36 PM

Ah, I see. I was already wondering why the belt wouldn't start jumping off the pulley, as it was angled like on the picture. But if part is a mock-up, it makes more sense.

You have good contacts @ Robinson, it seems. I once asked them for a pinion with 3.2mm hole instead of 2mm, and that was about impossible to pull off, it would cost a lot of money. While it wasn't even a custom part, just drilling a different size hole.

gomachv 11-08-2015 01:58 PM

Here are the prototype pulleys and idlers, as well as some very trick diff gears. The final versions will be heat treated and anodized.

Brian has made a quick video of his Ten4, almost ready for a shakedown on the track


DanB4 15-08-2015 03:42 PM

Got most parts now - just need to order the shapeways bits and I'm good to go :)

Thanks again Jeff!
