I can't believe that it would have cost RPM so much more do to this on their own. I'd jump at the chance to get made in the USA parts from a company that has been supporting RC since nearly the beginning.
In the past they have said that it would cause them to push off production of modern parts that are selling and essentially isn't worth their loss of time.
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas Factory Works website

It all boils down to sales and if they believe there is a profit. There is a solid belief in their part that vintage parts won’t sell. At this point I think it’s too late. A number of companies are now selling rpm parts. A year or three ago it would have been worthwhile.
I wish they would have tried a kickstarter like campaign where all of the parts are presold and none get made if the sales aren’t there.
Between ae/fan rc and jc the market is likely done . I saw fan rc a whilee back offering top dollar for nip rpm parts. Not hard to see where that would have gone.
Hi there, here is my long wishbone rc10 ce.
quick and basic paint job using proline paints and bittydesign liquid mask

Sharp looking Rc10. Really like the paint design and the wheels compliment it nicely. Have you contemplated painting the wing at all? Either way, looks fantastic.
most definitely one of my most favorite aft. chassis made for the rc10.
you can probably figure out which one is all new and which one i brought back from the dead...

i do plan on eventually running the beater version, i just need to get some turnbuckles to tie together the front and rear upper plates since the previous owner hacked it in half. its a flexy freak with the upper deck in 2 pieces.
Here is my attempt at a dirt oval racer, although it may take a while to complete but this is what i have started.
Rc10 arms on the left and B3 on the right. T3 tranny mounted on a slant to lower the CG of the motor. B3 drive arms both sides. Custom...

I built a short/long arm offset chassis car using DS on one side B3 on the other probably 10 odd years ago. The car came out great but I never ran it. Always wondered how well it would have worked, but according to the info here not very well. I...
I am looking to upgrade my TQ10's front suspension arms to the wide version (part 6206). Are there any additional steps, past mounting the new arms, that will need to be taken to accomplish this? I did just purchase the Team Associated turnbuckle...

with the turnbuckles in that kit, i don't see you being able to make them short enough using the tower you have. i would just grab a 6231 tower, they're cheap enough. or you could always drill 2 new holes in your original tower more inboard to match...
For the later cars that had the wide track arms, how can you mount a sway bar? What did AE do to mount the front sway? I can still mount a rear one with the stock rear arms but just wondering about the front.
Hi all,
I'm a long time Tamiyaclub member and have been finding that my goggle seaches regarding vintage SRB abd RC10 hop ups invariably lead me to this site! I joined a while back but have been inactive. I plan on changing that!
I'm in process of...

Resurrecting this question!
Is this an image of IRS200 instructions? Leaves a lot of room for error for a builder like me if so! Anyone know if there is anything more detailed ( idiot proof) out there please?
I have an A&L trailing arm kit I want to build but I need to find a chassis. If I can find a nice blue Sassy Chassis, I think that would look awesome. Just don't know if its wide enough to hit the third screw on the end of the swing arm mount.

I have some cool plans for this car. Have a full set of Kyosho gold shocks, white Andy's front a-arms. And B2 or B3 factory team front knuckles. I'd also like to setup the steering with the servo width ways instead of length ways. I'll be taking...
