A-arms
Yup i broke it 
I don't know why but i'm kind of proud 
i can now say i'm a true basher - it's done no more than 20 tanks and iv'e broke an a-arm...the top left one to be precise - tried super glue but the stuff don't stick because its in a awkward position. I'm going to have to buy new ones. Any ideas where from - i got a stock HPI RS4 MT2... I got to get it now so is there a cheap alternative such as you can just buy the one thats broken? or is that you have to buy the lot? i wouldn't mind just the stock plastic one but if it's near enough the same price as an aluminum one ill get the aluminum one. But will it fit - the all one? Anyways please answer these questions PLEASE I think god did this [&o] I think he wants me to get down to studys [
] lol so please help...thanks in advance (P.S. i broke it by going 30mph straight in to a pole...LOL!)

RE: A-arms
you have to be crazy to think that you are going to be able to buy an aluminum a arom for teh price of a stock plastic one. i see aluminum going for as cheap as liek 25 bucks an a arm, that might even be the cheapest. plastic i sliek what 5-10 bucks. if you want aluminum jst get all aluminum cuz one aarm wont look good

Dude, I broke mine and bought RPM A-Arms. I haven't crashed it yet but they look way beefier and stronger.

RE: A-arms
I would recommend just getting stock plastic A-arms. If something has to go, better a $10 A-arm then a $20 bulkhead or shock. Aluminum is very strong but if you hit it in its sweet spot, you'll get an ugly bend. Even if its fixable (hammering), it will never be at its original strength.
), it will never be at its original strength.
