Overview
The ARRMA Composite Motor Mount Set Z-ARA311029 is an essential replacement spare part designed specifically for ARRMA Mega 550 v3 RC vehicles. Whether you're an experienced RC enthusiast running a high-performance brushless RC car or someone exploring the world of RC model modifications, this composite motor mount set delivers the precision engineering and durability that ARRMA is renowned for. This component is particularly valuable for UK RC hobbyists who want to maintain peak performance and fine-tune their vehicles for different driving conditions and competition formats.
As a dedicated spare part for chassis tuning, this motor mount set enables you to optimise your RC car's performance through adjustable motor positioning. The sliding mesh design is a game-changer for anyone looking to experiment with different pinion sizes and gear ratios without having to purchase entirely new motor mounting solutions. Whether you're preparing your RC car UK for a weekend bash session or serious competitive racing, having quality replacement parts on hand ensures your vehicle stays in top condition.
Built from tough composite material, this motor mount set represents the perfect balance between lightweight construction and long-lasting durability. ARRMA has engineered this component with precision manufacturing techniques to ensure consistent fit across your vehicle's chassis, eliminating any guesswork during installation and guarantees a reliable performance upgrade for your RC model.
Key Features
- Sliding Motor Position Design — This innovative feature allows you to adjust the motor position easily, enabling fine-tuning of your gear ratio by using different sized pinions without requiring a complete motor mount replacement. This flexibility is essential for RC enthusiasts who want to experiment with performance characteristics or adapt their setup for different track conditions.
- Revised Gear Cover Protection — The redesigned gear cover has been engineered to provide additional protection to the spur, pinion and slipper clutch from dirt ingress and debris damage. This enhanced protective design is particularly important in UK outdoor environments where dust, mud and moisture can compromise component longevity.
- Tough Composite Material Construction — The durable composite material used throughout this motor mount set delivers exceptional strength whilst maintaining a lightweight profile. This material selection ensures the component can withstand the stresses of high-performance driving whilst contributing minimal weight to your RC car's overall mass.
- Precision Manufacturing — Each motor mount set is manufactured to exacting specifications, guaranteeing a consistent and secure fit to your ARRMA vehicle's chassis. This precision engineering eliminates fitment issues and ensures optimal alignment of drivetrain components for smooth, reliable operation.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Composite Motor Mount Set represents a significant engineering achievement in RC component design. Manufactured from high-quality composite material, this motor mount system is engineered to deliver exceptional durability whilst maintaining the precision tolerances critical for brushless RC performance. The sliding mesh motor mount allows you to position your motor at different points along the chassis, which directly influences your gear ratio configuration. This means you can optimise your setup for either maximum acceleration with smaller pinion gears or higher top speed configurations with larger pinion options. The revised gear cover has been specifically designed with enhanced protection features that shield your spur gear, pinion and slipper clutch from environmental contamination. For UK RC drivers who regularly use their vehicles in outdoor conditions, this protective engineering is invaluable for extending component lifespan and maintaining consistent performance over extended seasons.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the ARRMA Composite Motor Mount Set compatible with my RC car? — This motor mount set is specifically designed for ARRMA Mega 550 v3 vehicles. Before purchasing, verify that your RC model is a Mega 550 v3 to ensure perfect compatibility and fitment.
- What is the main advantage of the sliding motor position design? — The sliding motor position feature allows you to adjust the motor location along the chassis, which lets you change your effective gear ratio by using different pinion sizes. This means you can adapt your RC car's performance characteristics without purchasing new motor mounts, making it an economical way to experiment with different setups for various driving conditions or racing formats.
- Why has ARRMA revised the gear cover design? — The updated gear cover provides improved protection to your spur gear, pinion and slipper clutch components from dirt, mud and moisture ingress. This enhanced protection is especially valuable for UK RC users who drive in outdoor conditions, helping to extend component life and maintain reliable performance throughout the season.
- Will this motor mount set improve my RC car's performance? — This is a replacement spare part rather than a performance upgrade component. However, the sliding motor position design enables you to fine-tune your vehicle's gear ratio, which can optimise acceleration or top speed depending on your pinion selection and driving requirements.
- What material is used in this motor mount set? — The set is constructed from tough composite material, which offers an excellent balance of lightweight construction and exceptional durability. Composite materials are ideal for RC applications as they provide the structural integrity needed for reliable performance whilst contributing minimal weight.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — This is a replacement spare part best suited for RC enthusiasts with some experience in vehicle maintenance and tuning. Beginners can certainly use this component, though they should have basic knowledge of RC car assembly and understand how motor position and pinion sizing affect performance characteristics.
