Key Features
- Aluminium Construction — Manufactured from lightweight yet rigid aluminium, this motor mount provides superior strength and vibration dampening compared to plastic alternatives, ensuring your brushless motor remains perfectly aligned during aggressive cornering and high-speed acceleration on street courses.
- Direct Compatibility — Engineered specifically for FTX Stinger 1/10 on-road street cars and FTX EVO30 street cars, this motor mount is a direct bolt-on replacement that requires no modifications or additional parts to install on compatible models.
- Performance Upgrade — Moving to an aluminium motor mount from stock plastic components is a chassis tune-up that noticeably reduces flex and vibration, translating to improved handling response and more predictable motor performance during competition-level driving sessions.
- Genuine FTX Part — As an official FTX spare component, this motor mount meets the exact specifications of the components fitted to factory-built RTR models, ensuring complete compatibility and peace of mind that you're fitting genuine quality.
- Competition-Grade Engineering — Designed with the same precision as the factory components, the aluminium motor mount is ideal for UK RC drivers who compete in club meetings or weekend bashers who simply demand the best from their equipment.
Technical Performance
The FTX Stinger Aluminium Motor Mount is a critical component in the drivetrain assembly of any 1/10 scale on-road street car. Manufactured from high-grade aluminium alloy, this mount provides the structural rigidity necessary to keep your brushless motor perfectly centered and aligned with the transmission. The aluminium material choice is particularly important for performance RC cars because it resists flex and vibration far more effectively than plastic mounts. When you're driving your FTX Stinger at speed or pushing an FTX EVO30 through tight corners, even microscopically small movements in the motor mount can affect handling and power delivery. The aluminium construction ensures that these micro-movements are virtually eliminated, giving you the direct, responsive feel that competitive drivers demand. The engineering ensures compatibility with all electrical components including brushless motor systems, whilst maintaining the dimensional accuracy that makes installation straightforward. This is a chassis-level tune-up component that works seamlessly with all factory electrical specifications of compatible RTR models.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the FTX Stinger Aluminium Motor Mount compatible with my RC car? — This motor mount is engineered for direct compatibility with the FTX Stinger 1/10 on-road street brushless RTR cars (red and grey models) and the FTX EVO30 1/10 brushless and brushed street RTR cars (red and black models). Check your vehicle model number to confirm compatibility before ordering.
- What is the benefit of upgrading to an aluminium motor mount? — Upgrading from the standard plastic motor mount to aluminium significantly reduces chassis flex and vibration during high-speed driving. This improved rigidity translates to better motor alignment, more consistent power delivery, improved handling response, and reduced wear on internal drivetrain components over time. For UK RC drivers who take their cars seriously, this is a worthwhile chassis tune-up.
- Is this a direct replacement for my current motor mount? — Yes, this aluminium motor mount is a direct bolt-on replacement for compatible FTX models. No modifications or additional parts are required for installation on your FTX Stinger or FTX EVO30. Simply remove the old mount and fit the new aluminium version using the existing fastening points.
- Do I need any special tools to install this motor mount? — Installation requires only basic RC tools that most enthusiasts already own, such as hex keys and a screwdriver. The mount uses standard fastening points and can be installed in minutes without any modifications to your vehicle.
- Will this motor mount work with my brushless motor? — Yes, this aluminium motor mount is specifically designed to work with brushless motors in compatible FTX Stinger and EVO30 models. The mount maintains proper motor alignment for optimal performance with brushless drivetrain systems.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Whilst this is a genuine FTX spare part that will work on compatible models, it is primarily a performance upgrade component rather than a beginner-level item. However, if you already own an FTX Stinger or EVO30 street car and want to improve its performance, installation is straightforward enough for users of any experience level.
