Technical Performance
The TLR Carbon Electronics Mounting Plate represents a significant engineering advancement in electronics mounting systems for 1/10 scale 2WD RC buggies. Carbon fibre has been selected as the material of choice by Team Losi Racing because of its unique combination of properties: exceptional rigidity that prevents flexing under the dynamic stresses of high-speed cornering and jumps, incredibly low weight that contributes to the overall balance and handling characteristics of the 2.0mm milled aluminium chassis, and outstanding durability that resists damage from crashes and impacts. The TLR product development team chose carbon fibre specifically for the most critical option parts on the TLR 22 5.0 DC ELITE, including not just this electronics mounting plate but also the +2mm front and rear shock towers and the rear wing washer. These materials were selected after extensive testing and refinement by professional drivers competing in the most demanding racing environments. When you install this carbon fibre electronics mounting plate on your TLR 22 5.0, you're benefiting from years of accumulated knowledge about what works best at the highest levels of RC competition. The precision engineering ensures that your ESC and other electronic components are mounted securely and remain properly aligned throughout the stresses of racing, which is critical for maintaining consistent performance and preventing electrical failures during crucial moments in competition.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this carbon fibre electronics mounting plate compatible with all versions of the TLR 22 5.0? — This mounting plate is designed specifically for the TLR 22 5.0 and TLR 22 5.0 DC ELITE platforms. As an officially manufactured Team Losi Racing component, it integrates seamlessly with these models. Always verify your specific buggy model before ordering to ensure compatibility.
- Why is carbon fibre used for this mounting plate instead of plastic or standard materials? — Carbon fibre provides the optimal combination of lightweight construction and exceptional rigidity, which prevents flexing and movement of your electronics under the intense vibration and dynamic forces experienced during high-speed 2WD racing. This material choice is what separates the premium DC ELITE specification from standard buggies, and it directly contributes to more stable handling and reliable electronics performance.
- Will this upgrade improve my lap times or handling? — Whilst this mounting plate itself is a structural component, using genuine TLR factory-specification parts like this one ensures you're running the exact same setup as the professional TLR race team drivers. The improved rigidity and precision of carbon fibre construction means your electronics remain perfectly mounted under all racing conditions, eliminating variables that could affect consistency and performance.
- Is this part easy to install on an existing TLR 22 5.0? — This is a replacement mounting plate designed to fit directly into the TLR 22 5.0 chassis. Installation involves removing the old mounting plate and securing this new carbon fibre unit using the same fastening points. Detailed assembly instructions are included with the part, and it's recommended that you have basic mechanical knowledge of RC buggy maintenance before undertaking the installation.
- What is the difference between this carbon fibre plate and standard plastic or composite alternatives? — The TLR carbon fibre electronics mounting plate offers superior rigidity, lower weight, and greater durability compared to plastic or standard composite options. This is why it's specified on the factory race team buggies and included as standard on the DC ELITE kit. The precision engineering and material quality directly translate to more consistent electronics mounting and improved overall buggy performance.
- Is this suitable for beginner RC racers? — This is a replacement component best suited to owners of existing TLR 22 5.0 buggies, particularly those upgrading to premium factory race team specifications.
