{"title":"Vaterra Parts","description":"\u003ch3\u003eMaintain, Upgrade \u0026amp; Hop Up\u003c\/h3\u003e\nIt's one thing owning and running the coolest \u003ca href=\"\/models\/rc-cars\/\"\u003eRC Cars\u003c\/a\u003e in the world, but eventually you will need to replace parts due to normal wear and tear, or a crash of some kind. Let's face it, \u003ca href=\"\/models\/rc-cars\/\"\u003eRC Car\u003c\/a\u003e crashes happen to the best of us, and here at MIBI we have solutions for all eventualities. We will get your \u003ca href=\"\/models\/rc-cars\/\"\u003eRC Car\u003c\/a\u003e back up and running as fast as possible. \n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \n\nStock Vaterra RC Car replacement parts can be ordered direct from our dedicated Spares Section, and usually all you need is the parts number taken from the Vaterra RC Car dedicated product Manual. Many Vaterra RC Car spares are held in stock, however due to the sheer volume of spares across our whole range, we may at times need to order direct from Vaterra, especially when a particular Spare is in high demand.\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStronger, Better, Faster\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nBut there are other options too. Most manufacturers also make Option Parts or Upgrades. These Upgrades offer either a Performance Enhancement, Increased Durability or simply an Enhanced Aesthetic. Replacing plastic components for Alloy versions increases Durability and reduces Flex. Adding Bearings to replace Bushes reduces Friction. Most Upgrades are a much higher price than their stock replacement Parts, but in terms of Performance, Looks or Durability, well worth the premium. \n\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nLastly there are Hop Ups. Just like Upgrades they enhance Durability, Looks or Performance. Hop Ups tend to be made by Third Party Manufacturers, who specialise in producing a wide range of Hop Ups across a specific genre of RC, and multiple brands. Hop Ups may often not look as refined or be branded like manufacturer Upgrades, but they often offer a more Cost Effective and Robust solution to the part, or parts they replace.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRC Car Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nIt's one thing to buy and run your RC Car, but don't neglect it, or regular, routine maintenance. Put together a \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/tools\/tool-sets.\/\"\u003ebasic tool kit\u003c\/a\u003e that includes a \u003ca href=\"\"\u003estiff brush\u003c\/a\u003e to clean off dirt and debris after a run, \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/general\/adhesives.\/?p=5\"\u003eBlue Thread Lock\u003c\/a\u003e, a set of quality \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/tools\/hex-drivers.\/\"\u003eHex Drivers\u003c\/a\u003e, a \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/tools\/more-tools.\/\"\u003eBox Wrench\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/tools\/pliers-cutters.\/\"\u003eSide Cutters\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/tools\/pliers-cutters.\/\"\u003eNeedle Nosed\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/tools\/pliers-cutters.\/\"\u003eFlat Ended Pliers\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/tools\/screwdrivers.\/\"\u003eFlat Blade\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/tools\/screwdrivers.\/\"\u003eCross Headed Screwdrivers\u003c\/a\u003e, Thin and (if Possible) \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/general\/adhesives.\/\"\u003eflexible Cyano\u003c\/a\u003e (or \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/general\/adhesives.\/\"\u003eSuper Glue\u003c\/a\u003e) for re gluing tyres, \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/general\/diff-oil.\/\"\u003eDiff Grease\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/general\/shock-oil.\/\"\u003eShock Oil\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/general\/grease-lube.\/\"\u003eBearing Oil\u003c\/a\u003e and a \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/general\/grease-lube.\/\"\u003eWater Displacing Spray (Such as WD40 or GT85)\u003c\/a\u003e. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThese are the basics needed to keep a vehicle well maintained, clean and ready for it's next run. If you run Nitro then \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/general\/grease-lube.\/\"\u003eafter run oil\u003c\/a\u003e is a good investment, especially if you intend not to run the engine again soon, and a \u003ca href=\"\/accessories\/bags-storage\/hauler-bags.\/\"\u003eHauler Case\u003c\/a\u003e or Bag is also a good investment making transporting your car and tools around a much easier proposition. Always check your car over before and after a run, as nuts and bolts can (and often do) work their way loose. The better you look after the car, the better it will perform and last for you.    \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nHere at MIBI there's something for everyone, whatever your level of expertise, age or interest.
