Key Features

• All-Metal Roof Rack Construction — Built entirely from metal rather than plastic, this roof rack offers exceptional durability and a robust, authentic appearance that won't flex or deform during use, ensuring your scale build maintains its visual impact through countless runs.
• Complete LED Spot Light System — The package includes four precision LED spot lights comprising two large 22mm and two small 15mm units, giving you flexibility in how you illuminate your RC model and creating a realistic forward-facing light configuration that mirrors full-size vehicle designs.
• Realistic Light Lenses with Mesh Covers — Each spot light features a genuine lens and moulded mesh front cover, delivering an authentic appearance that looks professional when illuminated and adds significant visual depth to your scale build.
• Forward-Fixed Light Positioning — The spot lights are secured in a forward-facing position using location pegs and self-tapping screws, ensuring they remain perfectly aligned and creating a tidy, professional installation without visible gaps or movement.
• Secure Threaded Mounting System — Four threaded mounting points with included washers and nuts provide a rock-solid installation into your body shell, with thread lock application ensuring the roof rack never loosens or shifts during operation.
• Integrated Power Management — A dedicated power wire is designed to connect seamlessly to a spare receiver channel or suitable power supply, allowing you to control your lights independently without compromise to other RC functions.
• Comprehensive Hardware Package — Every component needed for installation is included in the box, from fixing pegs to self-tapping screws, eliminating the need for additional purchases and ensuring you can begin your upgrade immediately upon arrival.

Technical Performance

The RC Overhaul Roof Rack represents thoughtful engineering specifically designed for 1/10th scale RC applications. The main roof rack measures 168 x 110 x 35mm, providing substantial presence on your body shell without overwhelming smaller-scale proportions. The fixing pegs extend 120mm in length with a 108mm width, offering optimal spacing for secure mounting across most standard 1/10th scale body shells. The dual-size LED spot light system—combining two large 22mm units with two small 15mm units—creates authentic visual hierarchy that mirrors full-size vehicles where primary and secondary lighting systems serve distinct purposes. The metal construction throughout ensures the entire assembly resists flexing, vibration, and the minor impacts typical during RC operation, making this a reliable long-term addition to your scale build rather than a fragile cosmetic piece. Installation requires four 4mm holes drilled into your body shell for the threaded fixings, with an additional hole necessary for routing the power wire. The self-tapping screw fasteners simplify assembly without requiring pre-tapped holes, whilst application of thread lock to the mounting threads guarantees permanent security. The power wire connection system offers flexibility, accommodating both spare receiver channels for wireless control and direct power supply connections depending on your radio system configuration. Build quality throughout reflects RC Overhaul's reputation for precision scale accessories, with every component engineered for durability and realistic appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will this roof rack fit my 1/10th scale RC car or crawler? — Yes, the RCO Roof Rack is specifically engineered for 1/10th scale applications. The 168 x 110 x 35mm main assembly and 120 x 108mm fixing pegs are proportioned to work with standard 1/10th scale body shells across crawler, touring car, and scale build applications. You'll need to drill four 4mm holes in your body shell for the threaded fixings, so verify your shell can accommodate this modification.
• Can I control the LED lights independently from my RC vehicle? — Absolutely. The power wire is specifically designed to connect to either a spare receiver channel on your radio system or a suitable independent power supply, allowing you to switch the lights on and off separately from your vehicle's main drive and steering functions. This flexibility means you can display the lights for scale realism or disable them during competitive runs if preferred.
• Is the metal construction really necessary for a scale accessory? — Yes, metal construction provides significant advantages over plastic alternatives. Metal resists flexing, vibration, and impact better than plastic, meaning your roof rack maintains its precise appearance through countless runs without deformation or stress cracks. Additionally, the metal finish reflects light more realistically, enhancing the visual impact of the integrated LED spot lights and creating the authentic appearance expected in quality scale builds.
• What battery or power supply do the LED lights require? — The integrated power wire connects to your chosen power source, which can be a spare receiver channel drawing power from your main LiPo battery or another dedicated power supply. The LED lights are designed to operate within standard RC power ranges, though you should verify your radio system has an available auxiliary channel or use a suitable external power source depending on your configuration.
• How difficult is the installation process? — Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic RC building experience. You'll need to drill four 4mm holes in your body shell for the threaded fixings, apply thread lock to those mounting threads, route the power wire through an additional hole, and then mount the roof rack using the included hardware. The self-tapping screws simplify attachment of the light units without requiring pre-tapped holes. Most builders can complete installation in under 30 minutes.
• Can I remove the lights if I want a cleaner look? — The LED spot lights are secured with location pegs and self-tapping screws, making them removable if desired, though the main roof rack itself is permanently mounted via the four threaded fixings. You could run the rack without lights if preferred, though the included lights are integral to the design's visual impact.
• Is this suitable for competitive RC racing or just display builds? — This is primarily a scale accessory designed for display value and realistic appearance rather than performance enhancement. It works beautifully for crawler competitions where scale realism is judged, display models, and casual RC builds where aesthetics matter. It's not typically used in high-speed racing applications where additional weight or aerodynamic considerations are factors.
