Key Features
- Tough, impact-absorbing composite slider driveshafts — The composite construction of the driveshaft tubes absorbs impacts and shock loads that would damage rigid steel shafts, protecting your transmission and drivetrain components from premature failure during aggressive driving and crashes.
- Strong machined steel differential outdrives and wheel axles — Precision-machined from high-grade steel, these outdrives provide unmatched strength and reliability where the driveshaft connects to the differential and wheels, ensuring smooth, efficient power transfer even under extreme load.
- Red anodised 17mm aluminium hex hubs and wheel nuts — The vibrant red anodised finish adds distinctive ARRMA styling to your vehicle while the 17mm hubs and matching nuts provide secure wheel mounting and a premium appearance that reflects the quality of the entire assembly.
- Precision manufactured for excellent fit and finish — Every component is engineered to ARRMA's exacting standards, guaranteeing that the set will install perfectly with no binding, wobbling, or clearance issues that could compromise performance or longevity.
- Supplied fully assembled for quick and easy installation — Both driveshafts arrive completely assembled with hubs and nuts fitted, eliminating the need for tools, technical knowledge, or assembly time—simply install and drive.
- Can be fitted to front or rear — The versatility of this set means you can upgrade either axle or both, depending on your needs, and easily swap sides if one driveshaft wears or sustains damage.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA CVD Slider Set represents the pinnacle of driveshaft engineering for 1/10 scale 4WD RC vehicles. This transmission upgrade is specifically engineered for brushless electric-powered monster trucks and stunt trucks, where continuous high-torque delivery demands bulletproof reliability. The CVD (Constant Velocity) slider design allows the driveshafts to maintain optimal power delivery throughout the full range of suspension articulation, meaning your vehicle maintains consistent drive response whether the suspension is compressed during acceleration or extended over rough terrain. The composite slider material absorbs vibration and shock loads that would otherwise be transmitted through the entire drivetrain, extending the service life of critical components including the differential gears, motor, and ESC. The machined steel outdrives are manufactured to micron-level tolerances, eliminating play and ensuring that every ounce of motor power reaches the wheels without loss or slippage. The 17mm aluminium hex hubs are red anodised for both protection and style, with matching wheel nuts that provide secure, reliable wheel attachment. Built for high-speed brushless RC trucks and demanding conditions typical of UK RC driving—from concrete car parks to muddy fields—this assembly delivers the strength and precision expected from ARRMA's racing heritage.
