RPM Arrma Raider front & rear arm sets

New from RPM are front and rear arm sets for Arrma’s line of 1/10th scale 2WD off-road vehicles such as the Raider, Granite, Vorteks, Fury and Mojave. Starting with the front set, the kit includes the upper and lower arms whose updated design greatly improves durability. On top of this do tighter tolerances reduce suspension slop for improved steering feeling and a more predictable ride. The rear set compromises of the rear lower A-arms that also received a make over in terms of design for improved durability and precision. All parts are moulded from RPM’s renown nylon composite, making them virtually indestructible and they are usable on the BLS, BLX and Mega versions of the above mentioned kits.

VRP HB D817/E817 HRC suspension blocks

VRP has released high roll centre HRC suspension blocks for the HB Racing D817 and E817 buggies. The blocks have the hinge pin locations moved up 1mm from the stock blocks and will complement HB Racing’s +1.4mm B block. This offers more overall roll, which on certain track conditions will translate to more overall grip. The D block features VRP’s “quick release” design, meaning the D block can be removed without taking out the bottom two chassis screws and after only removing the two screws holding the actual D block. The A block also has an additional 1mm of material on the bottom that increases its overall lifespan. The A, C and D block are machined from 7075 aluminium, they come black anodised and laser-etched for easy identification.
