The ARRMA CVD Driveshaft Set is designed with precision engineering to minimise vibration, reduce play, and ensure maximum efficiency in power delivery. This makes it an ideal choice for RC car UK owners who want to maintain their vehicle in peak condition or those looking to refresh their drivetrain after extensive use. Whether you own an ARRMA buggy, truck, or other RC model, this component is built to ARRMA's exacting standards for durability and performance.
As a replacement part, the ARRMA CVD Driveshaft Set (2) offers excellent value for money and peace of mind. Keeping spare driveshafts in your spares box means you're always prepared for the unexpected, allowing you to continue your RC hobby without frustrating downtime. This is particularly valuable for competitive racers and serious enthusiasts who cannot afford to miss track time due to equipment failure. The set comes from ARRMA, a manufacturer renowned for producing high-quality RC components that deliver consistent performance and longevity.
Key Features
- Genuine ARRMA Component — This driveshaft set is manufactured by ARRMA, ensuring compatibility with ARRMA RC models and guaranteeing authentic quality standards. Using genuine parts rather than aftermarket alternatives provides confidence that your RC car will perform as intended, without compatibility issues or unexpected failures that can occur with non-original components.
- Constant Velocity (CVD) Design — The CVD design maintains smooth power transmission throughout the suspension's range of motion, which is essential for consistent handling and performance whether your suspension is fully compressed or fully extended. This engineering approach eliminates the jerky power delivery that can occur with older driveshaft designs.
- Pair Set Configuration — This package includes two driveshafts (one pair), providing everything needed for a complete front or rear axle replacement, or allowing you to stock spares for both ends of your RC car. Having a full pair ensures your vehicle maintains balanced performance across both sides.
- Replacement and Upgrade Option — Whether you need to replace worn or damaged driveshafts or want to upgrade for improved performance, this set delivers both functionality and reliability. Regular replacement of drivetrain components is part of responsible RC car maintenance for serious enthusiasts.
- OEM Quality Standards — As an original equipment manufacturer part, this driveshaft set meets ARRMA's rigorous quality control specifications, ensuring precision fit and long-term durability even under demanding driving conditions.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA CVD Driveshaft Set represents precision engineering designed specifically for the demands of modern RC vehicles. Constant velocity driveshafts are engineered to maintain consistent rotational velocity at all suspension angles, which is fundamental to delivering smooth, predictable power delivery in any driving condition. The construction utilises ARRMA's proven design principles that have earned the manufacturer a reputation for reliability amongst RC car UK enthusiasts of all skill levels. The set comprises two complete driveshafts, allowing for comprehensive drivetrain maintenance or repair. When installed properly, CVD driveshafts minimise vibration transmission to the chassis, contributing to better overall vehicle handling characteristics and reduced wear on associated components. The precision tolerances and manufacturing processes used in ARRMA components ensure that these driveshafts will integrate seamlessly with your existing ARRMA RC model, maintaining the performance envelope you've come to expect from your vehicle. For bashers and racers alike, maintaining quality driveshafts is essential for vehicle longevity and consistent performance lap after lap or session after session.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a CVD driveshaft and why do I need one? — A constant velocity (CVD) driveshaft is a component that transfers power from your RC car's motor and transmission to the wheels whilst maintaining smooth power delivery even when the suspension compresses or extends. CVD driveshafts are superior to older designs because they maintain consistent rotational speed regardless of suspension articulation, resulting in smoother handling, better traction, and reduced drivetrain stress. If you're experiencing jerky power delivery or clunking noises from your drivetrain, your driveshafts may need replacement.
- Will these driveshafts fit my ARRMA RC model? — Yes, as genuine ARRMA parts, these CVD driveshafts are designed specifically for ARRMA vehicles. However, you should verify your specific model number to ensure compatibility. We recommend checking your vehicle's documentation or contacting our expert team at RC Model Shop to confirm fitment before purchase.
- How often should I replace my driveshafts? — The lifespan of driveshafts depends on driving style, terrain, and maintenance practices. Regular inspection during routine maintenance will help identify wear. Racing enthusiasts and high-speed bashers may find they need replacements more frequently than casual drivers. Keeping spare driveshafts on hand, like this pair, ensures you're never without essential spares.
- Are these genuine ARRMA parts? — Yes, this is an official ARRMA component with the manufacturer's part number Z-ARA210011 and EAN code 5052127044837. Purchasing genuine ARRMA parts ensures compatibility, quality, and reliability that aftermarket alternatives cannot guarantee.
- What makes ARRMA driveshafts better than aftermarket alternatives? — ARRMA driveshafts are engineered and manufactured to the same exacting specifications as the rest of your vehicle, ensuring perfect compatibility and performance integration. Genuine parts maintain your vehicle's performance characteristics, warranty validity, and long-term reliability better than non-original components.
