- Pre-painted in cool ARRMA off-road colour scheme — The vibrant blue finish is professionally applied at the factory, eliminating the need for you to spend hours masking, spraying, and painting, whilst ensuring a consistent, factory-quality appearance that looks exceptional on any SENTON 4X4 short course truck.
- Pre-decaled with ARRMA high-quality vinyl stickers — The body arrives with ARRMA's distinctive vinyl decals already applied, adding authentic branding and visual detail that enhances the overall aesthetic without requiring any additional customisation or alignment work from you.
- Pre-trimmed and ready for immediate installation — All necessary trimming has been completed at the factory, meaning you can mount this body directly onto your vehicle with no cutting, filing, or fitting required, getting you back on the track in minutes rather than hours.
- Eye-catching ARRMA trim scheme — The distinctive ARRMA design language is already integrated into this body, giving your RC truck a professional, branded appearance that distinguishes it from generic or poorly finished alternatives.

Technical Performance
The ARRMA 1/10 Painted Body for the SENTON 4X4 BLX is constructed from premium polycarbonate material, a choice that reflects the engineering standards expected in modern RC short course trucks. Polycarbonate offers an excellent balance of impact resistance and light weight, crucial characteristics for maintaining the performance envelope of the SENTON 4X4 brushless platform. The body's engineering ensures compatibility with all standard SENTON 4X4 RTR models, including the SENTON 3S 4X4 and SENTON 4X4 variants, whether brushed or brushless specifications. At 1/10 scale, this body shell maintains the proportions and aerodynamic characteristics designed by ARRMA's engineering team to optimise airflow and handling dynamics during competitive or recreational driving. The pre-painted finish is applied using automotive-grade processes that provide durability against UV exposure and the elements encountered during outdoor RC operations. The pre-decaled application of vinyl stickers adds visual depth without adding significant weight, preserving the vehicle's centre of gravity and handling characteristics. This is a true bodyshell component, not a partial body panel, and integrates seamlessly with the SENTON 4X4 chassis platform, ensuring proper fitment without modification.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which SENTON 4X4 models is this body compatible with? — This body shell fits the SENTON 3S 4X4 RTR Brushless Short Course Truck, the SENTON 4X4 RTR Brushed Short Course Truck, and the SENTON 4X4 RTR Brushed Short Course Truck with Battery and Charger Included. It is designed as both a standard replacement part and optional upgrade body for these models. Always verify your specific model number before ordering to ensure compatibility.
- Do I need to paint or decal this body myself? — No, this body arrives completely finished and ready to install. It comes pre-painted in ARRMA's distinctive blue off-road colour scheme and pre-decaled with high-quality ARRMA vinyl stickers. The body is also pre-trimmed, meaning no cutting or fitting is required—you simply mount it directly onto your chassis.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Yes, this is an excellent choice for beginners and experienced hobbyists alike. Since the body is pre-painted and pre-trimmed, installation is straightforward and requires no specialist painting skills or tools. Even if you've never replaced a body shell before, you'll find this to be a simple, confidence-building modification.
- What colour options are available? — This body is available in blue, though ARRMA does produce SENTON 4X4 bodies in other colour schemes such as red. If you prefer an alternative colour, check RC Model Shop's current inventory for other options that match your preferences.
- Will this body affect the performance of my SENTON 4X4? — No, replacing the body shell will not affect the mechanical performance of your RC truck. The polycarbonate material is lightweight and designed to maintain the proper weight distribution and aerodynamic characteristics of the vehicle. You'll notice the improved appearance without any performance compromise.
- How durable is the polycarbonate body? — Polycarbonate is engineered for durability in RC applications, providing excellent impact resistance for typical bashing and racing scenarios. However, like all RC bodies, it is not indestructible and may crack or break under severe impacts. The benefit of a replacement body is that you can swap it quickly and inexpensively rather than replacing entire structural components of your truck.
- Does this body require any special mounting hardware? — This body is designed to fit directly onto standard SENTON 4X4 chassis using the original body mounting posts and clips. Your existing hardware should work without modification. Consult your vehicle's manual if you're unsure about the correct mounting procedure.
