Our current Arrma supply does not yet list this body, and unfortunately the distribution agent for Arrma is about to change, as of yet the new agent has not been announced. This would mean that we probably will not have these bodies available for a number of weeks, sorry. For gawd sake. This has got the HPI fiasco written all over it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would the mt410 shell fit the outcast? Be greedy and keep them both The mt410 has no shell its a kit you get the bare bones that's it ! There is a Proline shell that fits the outcast but sadly it's nowhere to be found here in the UK good old phils has them though last I checked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydoddy69 Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 Just went to change over those springs to find the front shock shafts bent i thought i had bent them a while back but just forgot about it, oh well i ordered up some replacements but no UK stock anywhere sucks !! In the meantime i,ve removed the Arrma shocks and mounted up some Hyper shocks to keep me back out bashing.. There a much better shock as the shafts are 4.0mm instead of the 3.5mm arrma give you.. I shall not be replacing the the shafts with the soft arrma ones instead ill use the rear MT4 shafts which are super strong and almost a direct fit up front when the MT4 shafts come in all post up some pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonedef Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) From what I read the main things are the shocks have been upgraded to 4mm shafts, stronger steering servo mount, bigger receiver box and chassis braces have been upgraded along with the bulkheads Edited January 3, 2018 by stonedef 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
