Default Helion Dominus 10 TR aftermarket support?

Hi guys, I just bought an immaculate 10TR with the better 50a amp and motor. Got it for 150 bucks which I though was a great deal considering it was a display model and had never been rum. Th TX/RX was removed for use on somethin else but thats fine as thats one of the first thing us rc'rs replace first. I chose A GTB3 as there awesome remotes. I've had over 13 of em in the past. So my main question here is there any aftermarket support beside helion themselves?? ive looked and havent has much help. Any info or suggestions would be great

I don't own the car anymore so I can't be 100% certain, but yeah my understanding was that FS Racing was the OEM, I would consider it relatively safe to cross reference the picture of the part and if it looks the same, then chances are it will fit.

All diffs should be shimmed regardless... what most don't understand is that RTR actually means "Ready To Re-assemble", ha!
