They will need to bring back the spring kits for buggy and truck for the small bore shocks. They are out there but harder to find every day. If people are going to be running all of these re-res they are going to need tuning tools.

Not specifically for the RC10, but these are available and could work.

Indeed, the Schumacher short and medium spring kits work very well. I use them on both the AE and Schumacher small bore shocks. The short ones on AE 0.56 (also 0.71) and the medium ones on the 1.32.

In terms of key components, what is missing? They really seems to have covered all of the bases.
The meat and potatoes are there.
I'd love to see a new blue label motor.
I would have liked to see some of the classic on road and carpet cars.
Unobtainable parts like cvd/cva/axles that resto mod builders use. Been hot for a while doing custom work.
The univsersals would be nice and appear to be on the way. The Cvd's were always mip parts. Mip made as re-relesae of the 1/4" axle. Customworks never stopped selling the 3/16"buggy sets.
True, but I'd like to see repros for the custom builds that folks use on the regular. Like say when using the affordable and in stock klein arms.
those were never AE parts to begin with. but yes if i was in charge RPM would remake their whole line of vintage parts
Oh, I wasn't being specific on parts manufacturers. So anything you want out there, really and yes RPM should re re on the arma for sure. Almost surprised they haven't.
