This battery mounting set is a direct replacement for your kit item and will provide a safe and secure location for your chosen batteries.
Overview
The ARRMA Battery Mounting Set 4x4 (Z-AR320413) is an essential spare part and upgrade component for RC enthusiasts in the UK who demand reliability and precision in their RC car setups. Whether you're running a competitive RC model or enjoying weekend bashing with your RC 4x4, a quality battery mounting system is absolutely critical to vehicle performance and longevity. This battery mounting set is specifically engineered as a direct replacement for your kit item, providing a safe and secure location for your chosen batteries whilst maintaining the structural integrity and handling characteristics of your RC vehicle.
ARRMA is a globally recognised manufacturer of high-performance RC vehicles, and their spare parts and accessories are built to the same exacting standards as their complete models. The Z-AR320413 battery mounting set addresses one of the most important aspects of RC car tuning and maintenance—proper battery retention and positioning. A secure battery mount isn't just about preventing your batteries from bouncing loose during aggressive driving; it's about maintaining your RC vehicle's weight distribution, centre of gravity, and overall handling characteristics. This is why serious RC enthusiasts across the UK invest in quality mounting solutions.
If you're setting up your RC 4x4 for the first time, replacing a worn mounting system, or experimenting with different battery configurations, the ARRMA Battery Mounting Set 4x4 offers the flexibility and durability you need. Ready to run RC vehicles and competition-grade models alike benefit from having multiple battery mounting options available, allowing you to dial in the perfect setup for different driving conditions and battery preferences.
Key Features
- Tough Composite Material — The entire mounting set is constructed from tough composite material that delivers long-lasting durability in all conditions, whether you're driving in wet weather, dusty terrain, or extreme summer heat. Composite materials resist cracking, warping, and degradation far better than standard plastics, ensuring your battery stays securely mounted season after season.
- Two Hook-and-Loop Battery Straps with Buckles — Two heavy-duty hook-and-loop straps provide a secure, adjustable fit for your batteries, allowing you to fine-tune the tension to your exact requirements. The buckle design prevents accidental loosening during high-impact driving, and the hook-and-loop system is infinitely adjustable to accommodate different battery shapes and sizes.
- Front and Rear Battery Spacers — The inclusion of both a front battery spacer and a rear battery spacer allows your chassis to be precisely tuned to different length batteries. This is crucial for RC car enthusiasts who want to experiment with various battery configurations or upgrade their power systems without compromising handling and weight distribution. Different battery lengths dramatically affect your vehicle's performance, and these spacers make adjustment quick and straightforward.
- Under-Battery Foam Pad — A protective under-battery foam pad is included to add an extra layer of security and vibration damping. This foam pad protects your batteries from direct contact with the chassis, reduces vibration and noise, and provides additional grip to prevent shifting during acceleration and braking. The foam also helps protect your battery contacts from damage and corrosion.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Battery Mounting Set 4x4 is engineered with precision to ensure compatibility across the ARRMA 4x4 range whilst maintaining the structural integrity that serious RC car users demand. The use of tough composite materials throughout the mounting system ensures that your batteries remain securely positioned even during the most aggressive driving conditions. Whether you're running 2S, 3S, or 4S LiPo batteries—or experimenting with different capacity batteries—the adjustable nature of this mounting system allows you to find the perfect configuration for your driving style and terrain. The foam pad underneath provides essential vibration isolation, which is particularly important when running high-performance brushless motors and electronic speed controllers that demand stable power delivery. The spacer system allows fine-tuning of your vehicle's centre of gravity, which directly impacts acceleration, braking, and cornering performance. UK RC enthusiasts know that battery positioning can be the difference between a vehicle that feels perfectly balanced and one that feels twitchy or loose.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the ARRMA Battery Mounting Set 4x4 suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. This is a direct replacement part, which means if you're replacing an existing mounting system on your RC 4x4, installation is straightforward. Even if you're new to RC cars, fitting battery straps and spacers requires only basic mechanical knowledge. The adjustable hook-and-loop straps make it forgiving for users who are still learning proper battery installation techniques.
- What batteries does this mounting set accommodate? — The ARRMA Battery Mounting Set 4x4 is designed to work with a variety of battery types and sizes, thanks to the adjustable hook-and-loop straps and the front and rear spacers. This flexibility means you can run 2S LiPo, 3S LiPo, 4S LiPo, or other battery configurations depending on your RC 4x4 model and your performance goals. The spacers allow you to fine-tune the mounting position for different battery lengths.
- Why do I need battery spacers on my RC 4x4? — Battery spacers are critical for maintaining proper weight distribution and centre of gravity in your RC vehicle. When you switch between different battery capacities or brands, the physical dimensions and weight distribution changes. The front and rear spacers included in this set allow you to adjust battery position to maintain optimal handling characteristics. This is especially important for competitive RC racing where every aspect of setup affects lap times.
- How secure are hook-and-loop straps for serious RC driving? — Hook-and-loop straps, when properly installed with quality buckles like those included in this ARRMA set, are extremely secure for serious RC driving. Thousands of competitive RC drivers across the UK and worldwide rely on hook-and-loop battery retention systems. The key is ensuring the straps are tight enough that they don't slip, but not so tight that they damage your batteries. The adjustable design allows you to find the perfect balance.
- Will this battery mounting set fit my ARRMA RC 4x4? — The Z-AR320413 is specifically designed as a direct replacement for ARRMA 4x4 models. It is recommended that you verify compatibility with your specific ARRMA model before purchasing, as different ARRMA 4x4 variants may have slightly different mounting requirements. Contact our expert team at RC Model Shop if you need specific compatibility confirmation.
- What makes ARRMA spare parts different from generic alternatives? — ARRMA is a globally recognised manufacturer of premium RC vehicles, and their spare parts are engineered to the same exacting standards. The tough composite materials used in this battery mounting set are specifically formulated for durability and reliability in demanding RC driving conditions. Generic alternatives may be cheaper, but they often lack the precision fit and long-term durability that ARRMA components offer.
