Key Features
- Complete Guard Coverage — This set includes left and right front guards, left and right rear guards, and a rear concealer panel, providing comprehensive protection around the entire perimeter of your FIRETEAM 6S vehicle. This multi-panel approach ensures maximum impact resistance and durability during aggressive off-road driving.
- Tough Polycarbonate Construction — Moulded from impact-resistant polycarbonate material, these guards are engineered to withstand the demands of serious RC bashing. The material absorbs impacts effectively without cracking or warping, making replacement guards last significantly longer than cheaper alternatives.
- Pre-Painted and Pre-Decaled — Unlike clear body options, this guard set arrives finished in a striking black camouflage print scheme with official FIRETEAM 6S BLX decals already applied. This eliminates the need for painting, decalling, or masking work, allowing you to install them immediately and hit the dirt the same day.
- Cut and Drilled Ready to Fit — Every panel arrives pre-cut and pre-drilled with mounting holes in exactly the right positions. This means no guesswork, no template work, and no risk of damaging components during installation—simply bolt them onto your existing chassis.
- Black Camo Aesthetics — The tactical black camouflage finish provides a distinctive, professional appearance that differentiates your FIRETEAM 6S from standard colour schemes. The pattern is rendered in high-quality paint that resists fading and maintains its visual impact through extended use.
- Genuine ARRMA Component — As an official ARRMA factory part, this guard set maintains perfect compatibility, fitment, and quality standards. You're purchasing an authentic replacement component engineered by the manufacturers themselves, not a third-party alternative with uncertain compatibility.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA 1/7 Guard Set Painted, Black Camo is engineered for the FIRETEAM 6S platform, a high-performance electric RC truck system. The guards are manufactured from polycarbonate, a material specifically chosen for its combination of lightweight properties and exceptional impact resistance. This engineering ensures that the guard set protects your vehicle's frame and mechanical components during collisions whilst keeping overall weight to a minimum, preventing any compromise to your truck's acceleration, handling, or battery runtime. The black camouflage finish is applied using ARRMA's professional-grade painting process, combined with factory-applied FIRETEAM 6S BLX decals that are properly sealed and UV-resistant. Each guard panel and the rear concealer panel have been pre-drilled with precisely positioned mounting holes that align perfectly with the FIRETEAM 6S chassis attachment points, ensuring that installation requires only basic tools and takes minutes rather than hours. The set's design incorporates protective elements that extend outward from the main body shell, absorbing side impacts from collisions, jumps, and off-road obstacles that would otherwise damage expensive chassis components and electronics.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this guard set compatible with my FIRETEAM 6S RC truck? — Yes, the ARRMA 1/7 Guard Set Painted, Black Camo is engineered specifically for the FIRETEAM 6S platform. The guards are pre-cut, pre-drilled, and designed to fit perfectly with the FIRETEAM 6S chassis without modification or adjustment. If you own a FIRETEAM 6S brushless RC truck, these guards will install directly with no compatibility concerns.
- Do I need to paint or decal these guards before installing them? — No, these guards arrive completely finished and ready to install. They come pre-painted in the black camouflage scheme and include factory-applied FIRETEAM 6S BLX decals, so you can mount them straight onto your vehicle without any additional finishing work or preparation time.
- What material are the guards made from? — The guards are moulded from tough polycarbonate plastic, a material selected for its excellent impact resistance and durability. Polycarbonate absorbs impacts effectively without shattering or becoming permanently deformed, making it ideal for protective body components on off-road RC vehicles that encounter frequent collisions.
- How difficult is installation? — Installation is straightforward. The guards arrive pre-cut and pre-drilled with mounting holes already in the correct positions for the FIRETEAM 6S chassis. You simply align each guard panel with its mounting points and fasten them using the appropriate fasteners for your vehicle—no cutting, drilling, or fitting work is required.
- Can I replace just one guard panel or must I buy the complete set? — This product is sold as a complete guard set including both front guards, both rear guards, and the rear concealer panel. If you only need to replace a single damaged panel, you would need to purchase the entire set, though having spare guard components is useful for future repairs or damage replacement.
- Will these guards fit under the body shell of my FIRETEAM? — Yes, the guard set is specifically engineered for the FIRETEAM 6S and fits properly within the vehicle's overall profile. The guards mount around the chassis perimeter and work in harmony with the main body shell to provide comprehensive protection without interference or fitment issues.
- What is the difference between this black camo guard set and the white camo version? — Both guard sets are identically constructed from polycarbonate and feature the same cut, drill pattern, and fitment for the FIRETEAM 6S. The only difference is the colour scheme: this set features a black camouflage finish with matching decals, whilst the alternative white camo option (model Z-ARA411017) features a white camouflage pattern. Choose based on your preferred aesthetic and how you want your RC truck to look.
