RPM Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo Rear Upper and Lower A-Arms Black RPM80602

Overview

The RPM Traxxas 1/16th E-Revo Rear A-Arms Black RPM80602 represent a significant upgrade for anyone running the Traxxas 1/16th scale Mini E-Revo. Whether you're a serious basher, weekend warrior, or someone looking to improve the handling characteristics of your RC monster truck, these replacement suspension arms deliver measurable performance gains that make a real difference on the track or the bash field. RPM has engineered these rear A-arms specifically for the Mini E-Revo platform, eliminating the inherent slop found in the stock suspension components whilst maintaining the durability and reliability you need for extended running sessions.

If you've ever noticed your RC truck wandering unpredictably during high-speed runs or felt frustrated by loose, imprecise suspension geometry, these RPM rear A-arms address those exact issues. By replacing the factory suspension arms with precision-moulded RPM parts, you gain a significantly tighter suspension system that holds camber and toe angle settings exactly where you set them. This isn't just about marginal improvements—riders consistently report smoother, more predictable handling that translates directly into faster lap times and more enjoyable bashing sessions across the UK RC community.

Like all RPM products distributed through UK RC retailers, these rear A-arms come backed by RPM's industry-leading breakage warranty, giving you peace of mind knowing that if something does break under normal operating conditions, RPM will replace it. This commitment to quality and customer satisfaction has made RPM the trusted choice for RC enthusiasts upgrading their brushless RC monster trucks and other high-performance vehicles.

Key Features

• Complete four-piece set — The RPM80602 includes both upper and both lower A-arms, giving you a complete rear suspension upgrade in one purchase, eliminating the need to source components separately and ensuring perfect compatibility across your entire rear suspension geometry.
• Eliminates suspension slop — Unlike stock Mini E-Revo rear A-arms which allow unwanted movement and play in the suspension joints, RPM's precision-engineered design removes nearly all of this slop, resulting in tighter camber and toe angle settings that remain fixed and consistent throughout your driving sessions.
• Angled leading and trailing edges — RPM has incorporated 30-degree bevels on the leading and trailing edges of both the upper and lower A-arms, which reduces the likelihood of impact damage by allowing the arms to naturally transition over obstacles rather than bluntly ploughing into them, extending component lifespan during aggressive bashing.
• Improved suspension consistency — By eliminating play in the suspension linkage, these A-arms deliver a smoother, more predictable suspension response that significantly reduces the truck's tendency to randomly wander whilst driving, giving you greater control and confidence at any speed.
• Seamless colour matching — The black finish is colour matched to Traxxas moulded parts, allowing for a seamless, factory-original appearance whether you're running a Grave Digger themed build or custom paint scheme, with the option to match or contrast any aesthetic you desire.
• Industry-leading breakage warranty — All RPM moulded products are factory-backed against breakage under normal operating conditions, meaning if your A-arms break, RPM will replace them at no cost, providing exceptional value and peace of mind during heavy bashing sessions.
• Proven durability in the field — User reports confirm these arms demonstrate superior strength compared to stock components, with verified testing showing they withstand extended running periods on 3S LiPo batteries without degradation.

Technical Performance

The RPM Traxxas 1/16th E-Revo Rear A-Arms represent a masterclass in precision moulding and structural engineering for RC suspension components. Manufactured using RPM's proprietary polymer material, these A-arms combine lightweight construction with exceptional impact resistance, making them ideal for the demands of modern RC bashing where impacts are inevitable and reliability is non-negotiable. The 30-degree bevelled edges aren't merely cosmetic—they represent genuine engineering that reduces stress concentration at impact points, allowing the arms to flex and transition over obstacles rather than fracturing under load. This design philosophy, matched across both upper and lower arms, creates a cohesive rear suspension system that works in harmony with the Traxxas brushless monster truck platform. For owners running 3S LiPo batteries through their Mini E-Revo, these arms provide the structural integrity needed for extended running sessions without sacrifice. The precision fit ensures that when you dial in your camber and toe settings using your RC car toolkit, those settings remain locked in place throughout your driving session, whether you're bashing on tarmac, gravel, or grass terrains typical across the UK. The elimination of suspension slop transforms how the truck feels—inputs become more responsive, handling becomes more predictable, and the overall driving experience elevates significantly. Build quality matches professional-grade RC suspension components, with consistent wall thickness throughout and stress points reinforced during the moulding process.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will RPM rear A-arms fit my Traxxas Mini E-Revo? — Yes, these RPM80602 arms are precision engineered specifically for the Traxxas 1/16th scale E-Revo and are confirmed compatible with all E-Revo VXL variants including purple and blue colour versions. They replace both the upper and lower rear A-arms, providing a complete rear suspension upgrade in a single purchase.
• How much better are RPM A-arms compared to the stock components? — The primary improvement is the elimination of suspension slop, which allows you to set and maintain precise camber and toe angles that don't shift during driving. Users report significantly smoother, more consistent handling with dramatically reduced wandering, particularly noticeable during high-speed runs. The arms are also physically thicker and stronger than stock components, offering superior durability during bashing sessions.
• Are these A-arms suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. Whilst these are an upgrade component, installation is straightforward for anyone with basic RC maintenance knowledge and standard RC tools. The parts simply replace the stock A-arms using existing fasteners. Even if you're new to RC upgrades, these arms provide immediate, noticeable improvements without requiring any specialised knowledge or complicated tuning procedures.
• What warranty does RPM offer on these A-arms? — RPM backs all of its moulded products with an industry-leading breakage warranty. If your A-arms break under normal operating conditions, RPM will replace them at no charge. This represents exceptional value for money and demonstrates the manufacturer's confidence in the product's durability.
• How do the 30-degree bevels improve performance? — The bevelled leading and trailing edges allow the A-arms to naturally transition and climb over obstacles rather than hitting them bluntly, which dramatically reduces impact damage and extends component lifespan. This design element is particularly valuable during aggressive bashing where impacts with terrain are constant and unavoidable.
• Can I use these arms with a 3S LiPo battery? — Yes, verified user reports confirm these arms perform reliably with 3S LiPo battery configurations, withstanding extended running periods of approximately 10 battery packs worth of usage without showing wear or degradation.
• Do these come with all four arms? — Yes, the RPM80602 set includes both upper and both lower A-arms, providing a complete rear suspension solution in a single part number, eliminating the need for separate purchases or compatibility concerns.
