Overview
The ARRMA Sliding Motor Mount Plate 56 Series in red is an essential upgrade and replacement component for ARRMA RC enthusiasts looking to fine-tune their vehicle's performance and reliability. Whether you're running a high-performance brushless RC car UK or need to service an existing setup, this precision-engineered motor mount plate provides the secure, adjustable mounting point your motor demands during extreme RC action. Designed specifically for the ARRMA 1/7 Limitless V2 Speed Bash Roller and compatible vehicles, this component combines lightweight construction with professional-grade engineering to give you the adjustability and durability required for consistent racing and bashing performance.
This red aluminium motor mount plate is manufactured to exacting standards by ARRMA, a recognised leader in high-performance RC vehicles. The precision engineering ensures that your motor sits perfectly aligned, reducing vibration, improving efficiency, and extending the lifespan of both your motor and drivetrain components. For anyone serious about maintaining their RC car UK investment or upgrading an existing setup, this sliding motor mount plate represents a smart investment that will pay dividends in performance stability and ease of maintenance.
The sliding motor mount design allows you to adjust your motor position without replacing the entire mount, making it an invaluable tool for tuning your vehicle's performance characteristics. Whether you're chasing lap times at the track or enjoying weekend bashing sessions, the ability to fine-tune motor position can make the difference between a good setup and a great one. This is the type of quality spare part that separates casual RC enthusiasts from serious competitors and dedicated hobbyists who understand that attention to detail in component selection and maintenance is what keeps their vehicles running at peak performance.
Key Features
- Precision Manufactured Aluminium Construction — Crafted from lightweight aluminium with meticulous attention to tolerances, this motor mount plate ensures consistent hardware fit and reduced vehicle weight, helping your ARRMA vehicle achieve better acceleration and handling characteristics whilst maintaining structural integrity during high-speed runs and impacts.
- Anodised Red Finish — The durable anodised red coating provides both aesthetic appeal that matches ARRMA's iconic colour scheme and increased resistance to wear, corrosion, and UV damage, ensuring your motor mount maintains its appearance and protective qualities through countless hours of RC action.
- Heat Dissipation Engineering — The aluminium material actively assists in dissipating heat generated during extreme RC action, helping to keep your motor running at optimal temperatures and preventing thermal throttling or damage during prolonged high-performance sessions, which is crucial for maintaining consistent power delivery.
- Tool-Free Adjustment Access — Motor position adjustment screws are accessed from above for ease of servicing, meaning you can quickly and conveniently tune your motor position without requiring disassembly of other vehicle components, saving you valuable setup time at the track or in the workshop.
- Wide Motor Compatibility Range — Designed to accommodate motors up to 56mm diameter and 110mm in length with a 30mm mounting screw pitch, providing flexibility if you decide to upgrade your motor or experiment with different powerplants within these specifications.
- Sliding Design for Performance Tuning — The sliding mechanism allows you to adjust motor position incrementally, enabling precise gear mesh tuning, pinion clearance adjustment, and motor timing optimisation without requiring a complete component replacement, which is essential for extracting maximum performance from your setup.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Sliding Motor Mount Plate 56 Series represents professional-grade engineering designed for the demands of high-performance ready to run RC vehicles. Manufactured from lightweight aluminium, this component delivers the precision and adjustability that serious RC enthusiasts demand. The 56mm motor diameter accommodation with 110mm length capacity and 30mm mounting screw pitch specification ensures compatibility with a wide range of high-performance brushless motors used in modern 1/7 scale ARRMA vehicles like the Limitless V2 Speed Bash Roller. The anodised red finish provides genuine protection against the elements and the rigours of repeated use, whilst the heat-conducting properties of the aluminium base material actively work to dissipate thermal energy generated during intense driving sessions. The engineering allows for sliding adjustment, which is critical for fine-tuning gear mesh, pinion engagement, and overall drivetrain harmonics. This level of adjustability is what separates a competent setup from an optimised one, and it's a feature that competitors and serious bashers have come to expect from ARRMA's engineering philosophy. The top-accessed adjustment screws mean you can make critical setup changes without tearing down your entire vehicle, which is a significant convenience factor for trackside tuning or workshop maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the ARRMA Sliding Motor Mount Plate 56 Series compatible with my ARRMA vehicle? — This motor mount plate is specifically designed for the ARRMA 1/7 Limitless V2 Speed Bash Roller and compatible vehicles that use the ARA320664 Sliding Motor Mount as part of their drivetrain system. If you own an ARRMA 1/7 scale vehicle, this is likely compatible, but we recommend checking your vehicle's manual or contacting our team at RC Model Shop to confirm compatibility before ordering.
- What makes this a better option than a fixed motor mount? — The sliding design allows you to adjust motor position without replacing the entire mount, giving you the flexibility to fine-tune gear mesh, adjust pinion clearance, and optimise motor timing for different driving conditions, track surfaces, or motor upgrades. This adjustability is invaluable for competitive RC racing and serious bashing applications where setup precision directly impacts performance.
- Will this motor mount help my RC car UK perform better? — Yes, a precision motor mount plate ensures proper motor alignment, reduces drivetrain vibration, and enables critical tuning adjustments that can improve acceleration, top speed consistency, efficiency, and overall vehicle handling. Additionally, the aluminium construction aids heat dissipation, helping your motor maintain optimal operating temperatures during extended driving sessions.
- What motors will fit this mount plate? — This motor mount plate accommodates motors up to 56mm in diameter and 110mm in length with a 30mm mounting screw pitch. Most modern high-performance brushless motors designed for 1/7 scale ARRMA vehicles will fit within these specifications, but always verify your specific motor's dimensions before purchasing.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — This component is best suited for users with some RC experience who understand motor mounting concepts and drivetrain tuning. Beginners should ensure they have the necessary mechanical knowledge or access to experienced RC enthusiasts who can guide installation and adjustment. It's not a difficult installation for those familiar with RC vehicles, but it requires some mechanical aptitude.
- Do I need any special tools for installation or adjustment? — The top-accessed adjustment screws are designed for ease of servicing and typically require only basic hex keys or wrenches. No specialised tools are required for most adjustment and maintenance tasks, making this ideal for workshop or trackside tuning.
