But theres some really delayed shipping in the USA at the moment, so who knows. I doubt we will get them within 3 months. I'm happy to pay the import premium to get my hands on some arms asap - would love to let rip with this truck without fear! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With postage delays it probably wouldn't be any quicker lol. Maybe if just one person did an order for like 10 sets, it would work out a bit cheaper, as there would only be one postage to pay, one handling fee to pay and bigger discount code available. Anyone interested? I'd be happy to place the order and send them out as long as postage is covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh How Original Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 Anyone else possibly interested? Depending on price and stuff of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh How Original Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 Long shot I know but has anyone got a single or pair of stock MT10 wheels/tyres I could buy? I had one go wrong and no stock locally. I know this might be a grey area of classifieds in the open forum but it seems a shame to have three wheels sat here not getting used.

Oh How Original Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 So I'd probably take two sets for future protection. @Tabbie - @CUPRABullet - @immortaljellyfish - how many sets are you each interested in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is definite yet, it's more so just in case they are super cheap in the USA and we have to wait months to get them. I don't plan on waiting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh How Original Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 Alright, I will keep my eye out on the USA sites and groups, got a contact supposedly keeping me updated too but we'll see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Hi I’d be interested in a couple of sets of these arms when they are available. Even if the group buy doesn’t go ahead, could you please keep us posted as to whether RPM release them? Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immortaljellyfish Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) These are now available! Front Rear But, from what I can tell, they don't seem to be shipping them to the UK? Edited April 1, 2021 by immortaljellyfish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Hi Just tried to order some but as you say, it looks like we’ll have to wait until dealers have them then? At least they are available now, eh! We’ve not broken an arm since the original one failed, and if anything it gets driven harder now, so we can wait. Don’t have another truck at the moment but still think these are great.

SWF Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I’ve just checked and the UK importer, CML, are showing these arms as delivery TBC, so they are coming here, hopefully! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Well, had a great time with the MT10 and Ryft today. The MT10 was like a little Terrier chasing the Ryft but managed to go everywhere with it. The MT10 on 2s doesn’t quite have the pace of a 3s Ryft, but can take a corner! Managed to flatten the body shell into a tree trunk and blew all 4 tyres off the rim’s keeping up, but we had a blast. Other than the tyres, the MT10 survived without anything breaking, the body shell even looks intact. These trucks are tough, if the cartwheels that it survived are anything to go by! Great day in the dirt. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great day in the dirt. Nice! She certainly handles wonderfully, and I perhaps prefer her on 2S tbh. You going to replace the wheels with an alternative? I've pondered a wheel upgrade myself but haven't made up my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 We have only run on 2s but we’re going to try 3s yesterday, until the tyres started to come adrift! All 4 tyres are coming off on the outside only? It looks like it will be a mammoth task to get them completely un-stuck so will look into alternatives, but unsure what will fit without rubbing? All the YouTube tyre removal methods look like a faff, but will have a go while I ponder. I looked at Proline Badlands but they cost an arm, even if they are available in UK.

Stormbringer Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 you could reglue them back on with super glue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Yeah, I’ll give that a try. I’d rather release the tyres all the way around the outer rim first, so that I can remove and dry the sodden foams. That way I can get fresh glue all the way around the tyre. Not decided which method to try yet, heat gun or boil, as Acetone is not available anymore?

SWF Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Ooh, thought as my wife’s nail polish remover is now Acetone free, and doesn’t work very well she tells me, that COSHH had put an end to domestic use. Happy to be wrong, Acetone it is! Thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Hi When bashing about with the MT10 and our Kronos, the MT10 just seems lazy to apply power? Once it decides that you have pulled the trigger, it goes very well, it just lacks that instant “punch” that the Kronos has. We only use 4s on the Kronos, and this is evident on the MT10 with 2s or 3s. There are no adjustments on the Reedy ESC so was thinking that a change to a MAX10 might be the solution? Any thoughts?
