Has anyone found a set of captured hinge pins that fit the outer hings pins on an RC10? Even with e-clips, one of mine fell off 3 times. I need a more permanent solution.

Yeh, they came up when searching google. I want a solution that does NOT include C clips.
What I have found is that the captured pins made for the Slash fit the front outsides of the RC10, They're a little long, but dont hit anything.

There was such solution in the second thread. It also reduces some play:

For a runner I would use a set screw in the mount. Grind a bit of the hinge pin where the set screw hits and never worry about it.
