A build of this caliber (ie worlds chassis/4-10) deserves RPM arms in lieu of the Klien armsminimini wrote:I am going to use the Dynotech Klein arms........the size of the cvd still not decided yet.........cochecito wrote:Hi mini, are you thinking to use B44 cvd in the rear ?

now comes to the front legs...........dug out a set of RPM worlds arms from my RC10 parts drawer recently........
replaced the original C-hubs with aluminium ones........which can use 5 x 8mm flanged bearings x 4........

no direct replacement to the original MIP ones.........wyldbill wrote:what aluminum c hubs are you using? i did not know there was a aluminum replacement to the m.i.p. ones. do you have the steering knuckels to mach as well?
the aluminium C-hubs were taken out from an optima.........I need to enlarge the hinge pin holes to 1/8"..........& actually I did a lot of fine modifications in order to smoothly fitting them on the RPM arms.......
probably I will use the TC3 steering knuckles to replace the original .........

I was busy in the past few months, got no time for this project
With reference to Miguel's RC10 front tower, I decided to re-do mine in order to make it as strong as possible.
Need to polish the shinny edges later.
