RPM Short Course Roof Light Bar
RPM Products has just released their new rc short course roof light bar. The RPM roof light bar has a total of six light canisters that are capable of holding high intensity 3mm LED lights (not included) for the ultimate in nighttime off-road short course rc racing.
RPM wanted to design a roof light bar as realistic as possible while still being durable. The result is a unique hinge based system that in the event in a roll over, the roof light bar will collapse against the body to help reduce impact damage. The RPM roof light bar is designed to bolt to the front windshield of the truck, keeping the light bar profile low and in perfect position to light up the night. RPM has also included a pair of large backing plates to help protect the body where the screws hold the light bar in place.
RPM Traxxas Slash Skid Plates
When a stock Traxxas Slash rear skid plate fails, it can rip the shock tower mounting screws out of the chassis, causing a catastrophic failure usually resulting in the rear end sailing in a different direction than the rest of the truck. RPM has a solution, with RPM skid plates mounted, that problem will be a thing of the past!
RPM front and rear Traxxas Slash skid plates have taken the stock skid plates and have completely redesigned them, making the RPM Traxxas Slash front and rear skid plates stronger and much more durable. RPMs unique designs use three chassis mounting points instead of two, triangulating the chassis mounts on the truck, in turn spreading impact energy over a larger area.
RPM Slash wheelie bar mount
The new RPM wheelie bar / rear bumper mount is the newest creation from RPM Products! The RPM wheelie bar mount features two mounting holes on the gear cover side and three on the motor side – that’s two additional mounting points to eliminate that annoying hinge effect mentioned above.
RPM rear a-arms for Traxxas Slash
RPM has released a set of rear a-arms for the Traxxas Slash. The new RPM rear a-arms for the Traxxas Slash have been designed to handle serious abuse by increasing the material around the outer hinge pins by 64%! RPM has also removed all the unnecessary holes and shock mounts that would be needed on other vehicles but not the Traxxas Slash.
RPM gear cover and shock tower for Slash
RPM Products is wasting no time making sure their parts for the electric versions of the Traxxas Stampede, Rustler also fit for the new Traxxas Slash.
Take for example the RPM gear cover, with the release of the new Traxxas Slash, there was some interference issues with the original RPM molded gear cover. RPM has redesigned and expanded the area of the gear cover over the motor shaft to accommodate the longer motor shafts found on the XL-5 and VXL motors. RPM also narrowed a few areas along the perimeter of the gear cover to allow clearance for the rear bumper and a wheelie bar mount as well on the Traxxas Slash.
RPM Rear Traxxas Rustler & Stampede and A-arms
Just about two weeks ago, RPM released their front A-arms for the electric versions of the Traxxas Rustler and the Traxxas Stampede with a promise to have rear A-arms ready shortly. Well the wait is over! RPM’s rear A-arms are complete and ready to ship! Not only are the RPM A-arms stronger and more durable than stock versions, but RPM has also managed to eliminate over 7 grams of weight per arm! That’s 14 grams of unsprung weight eliminated with a single pair of rear A-arms! Coupled with a set of RPM front A-arms, the total weight loss exceeds 24 grams or almost a full ounce!
Heavy Duty Front A-arms for Traxxas Rustler & Stampede
RPM has created front A-arms for the Electric version of the Traxxas Rustler and Stampede. Traxxas has recently introduced newer, more powerful versions of the Electric Rustler & Electric Stampede, combined with emerging technologies in both battery and motor power, it was time for RPM to help strengthen these venerable yet awesome vehicle platforms.
