FIX your parts issue Arrma!

[Cmejer]

I started back in the RC game just over 2 months ago, been 20+ years

I bought a nero 6s 8 weeks ago (have 4 Arrma cars now), to date i have had it out 4 times! In the last 5 weeks I have had it out once for 20 minutes ..... not a LOT of broken parts, but I cant get anything for the damn thing, its all in back order. Looks like it will be another 4-6 weeks before i can fix my shock....

Changing production to a different location is not something that should slow production, its a great excuse though.

Im contacting them one last time and unless they send me a bag "and I mean a BAG" (Which they wont) of parts on them im dropping the company all together right away, selling the Arrma cars and going Traxxas .......

Too bad though as they have great cars.

What part on your shock broke? Chances are that someone else makes something that fits.

The metal shock arm snapped, I was finally able to find something that will do ..... however its the wrong length which makes for an uneven setup. Im still reintroducing myself back to my old hobby so still a bit hard figuring out custom jobs as well .... this industry really has changed in the last 20 years.

Bought 7 cars in total the last 2 months to try out different setups, Arrma is winning for me for sure, but If i cant drive them there is little reason for me to stay with the brand.

I buy my parts on ebay. Resellers on there buy whole trucks and part them out. You can pick up entire assemblies for the cost of one part. It may help you get through the drought.

I had the exact same problem first time out. Snapped the shock rod right off the end where the ball joint is. It turns out this part is essentially an exact match: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXCUVD. Parts shortage is annoying!
