RPM Revo 2.0 front arms

Coming from RPM and made for the Traxxas Revo 2.0 truck are left and right front arm sets. Traxxas has upgraded the arms for the 2.0 version of the popular truck, however when the goings gets hard, the arms can still become a weak point of the truck. While offering greater durability thanks to RPM’s renown nylon comping, the design of the arms with angled leading and trailing edges not only cut through the air cleaner and more efficiently, those same edges allow the A-arms to slip up and over tall objects with less chance of a direct impact stopping creating harm. While offering more durability than the standard arms, RPM’s variants also scrub about 10g of weight a pair, improving suspension efficiency. The front A-arms are moulded from RPM’s indestructible blend of engineering grade nylons and sold as one upper and one lower A-arm, as sets for the left or right hand side of the truck and in black or blue colour.

Capricorn LAB TE04 2.0mm & 1.6mm upper decks

Coming from Capricorn and made for their LAB TE04 touring car are two new top decks. The narrow design carbon fibre upper decks are available in a thicker 2.0mm and thinner 1.6mm variant to increase torsional flex and thus corner speed when running the optional aluminium chassis. The top decks also help to fine-tune the car’s overall stiffness when running the carbon fibre chassis low to medium-bite conditions.
