Overview
The ARRMA Skid Plate Mount Set Z-ARA320690 is an essential replacement spare parts package designed specifically for the ARRMA Fireteam 6S RC model. Whether you are an experienced RC car UK enthusiast or a weekend basher looking to maintain your brushless RC vehicle, this skid plate mount set provides the ideal solution for keeping your model protected and performing at its best. The set includes precision-engineered components that work together to shield your chassis from impact damage during aggressive driving, ensuring your investment remains in peak condition for longer.
Skid plates are critical protective elements on any serious RC car, absorbing impacts from terrain obstacles, kerbs, and rough landings that would otherwise damage the chassis and suspension components. This OEM-specification set from ARRMA gives you genuine replacement parts that match the original kit components exactly, allowing you to restore full protection to your Fireteam 6S or upgrade from worn components. For any ready to run RC vehicle owner who takes their hobby seriously, maintaining proper undercarriage protection is essential for longevity and consistent performance.
Built with tough and durable composite material, this skid plate mount set demonstrates ARRMA's commitment to quality and engineering excellence. The composite construction balances strength with weight efficiency, ensuring your RC model maintains optimal performance whilst gaining maximum protective capability. Every component in this set is precision manufactured to exacting tolerances, guaranteeing consistent fit and straightforward installation without modification.
Key Features
- Tough and durable composite material — The skid plate mounts are constructed from high-quality composite material that provides excellent impact resistance and long-lasting durability, protecting your RC vehicle's chassis from damage during aggressive driving and rough terrain.
- Precision manufactured engineering — Each component is manufactured to exact specifications, ensuring consistent fit across all parts and making installation and servicing straightforward without requiring modification or adjustment.
- Front and rear skid plate mounts included — Complete undercarriage protection coverage with both front and rear mounting solutions means your entire chassis is shielded from impact in the areas most likely to encounter obstacles.
- Rear skid plate upper brace for enhanced impact absorption — The included rear skid plate upper brace has been specifically engineered to absorb impacts to the rear of the vehicle, protecting critical drivetrain and battery components from collision damage.
- Easy servicing and replacement — As genuine ARRMA parts, these mounts integrate seamlessly with your existing Fireteam 6S setup, making maintenance and component replacement quick and hassle-free without specialist knowledge required.

Technical Performance
The ARRMA Skid Plate Mount Set represents professional-grade protection engineering for serious RC enthusiasts. The composite material selection balances multiple performance requirements: it must absorb significant impact energy from rough terrain and aggressive driving whilst remaining lightweight enough not to compromise the vehicle's acceleration and speed characteristics. The precision manufacturing process ensures that each component — the front skid plate lower mount, rear skid plate lower mount, and rear skid plate upper brace — operates in perfect harmony within the Fireteam 6S chassis architecture. The rear upper brace is particularly noteworthy in its engineering, as it addresses a common vulnerability in high-performance brushless RC vehicles where rear impacts during aggressive driving can damage the battery, ESC, and motor components. For any RC car UK owner running a Fireteam 6S, whether on track or bashing at the park, these mounts provide essential structural protection that allows you to push your vehicle harder with confidence.
