What's in the Box
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a slipper hub and why do I need one for my RC 4WD truck? — A slipper hub is a critical drivetrain component that allows controlled slippage when excessive torque is applied to the wheels, such as during hard acceleration or impact with an obstacle. This protects your transmission, differential gears, and motor from catastrophic damage. For RC 4x4 drivers in the UK, maintaining a functional slipper hub ensures your brushless motor and ESC are protected from damage caused by the sudden load spikes that occur during aggressive driving.
- Is this slipper hub compatible with my ARRMA RC car? — This slipper hub is specifically compatible with the ARRMA INFRACTION 4x4 1/8 3S BLX models, including both the Resto-Mod Truck RTR variants in Teal (C-ARA4315V3T2) and Gold (C-ARA4315V3T1) colours. If you own one of these specific ARRMA 4x4 models, this is the correct OEM spare part for your vehicle.
- Why should I choose OEM ARRMA spares over aftermarket alternatives? — OEM ARRMA parts are engineered to the exact specifications of your vehicle, guaranteeing perfect fit and performance. This slipper hub has been precision manufactured to match your RC car's drivetrain tolerances, ensuring smooth operation and reliability. Choosing genuine ARRMA spares ensures you maintain your vehicle's performance characteristics and longevity.
- How often do I need to replace the slipper hub on my ARRMA 4x4? — The frequency of replacement depends on your driving style and conditions. Aggressive bashers and racers who regularly push their RC cars to the limit will need to replace wear components more frequently than casual drivers. However, the hard-wearing aluminium construction of this slipper hub is designed for extended longevity, making it a cost-effective maintenance item for serious RC enthusiasts in the UK.
