Overview
The Futaba Steering Wheel Spring Set 10PX (FUTEBT3358) is an essential spare parts component designed specifically for the Futaba 10PX RC radio transmitter. Whether you're an experienced RC enthusiast running competition-grade setups or a weekend basher enjoying casual off-road adventures, this spring set ensures your radio control equipment remains in peak operating condition. The 10PX is renowned amongst RC car UK hobbyists as one of Futaba's most reliable and popular radio systems, and maintaining it with genuine Futaba spares is the best way to ensure consistent performance.
This straightforward metal spring set in a silver finish matches the aesthetic of the 10PX transmitter perfectly and serves as a practical replacement for routine maintenance or if your existing springs become worn through regular use. Radio control equipment, like all mechanical devices, benefits from periodic maintenance and the replacement of consumable parts. Springs can gradually lose their tension over time, especially if your transmitter gets heavy use at the track or in the field. By keeping genuine Futaba steering wheel spring sets on hand as spares, you'll never be caught out mid-season without a quick fix, making this an invaluable addition to any RC toolbox.
As an authorised Futaba distributor in the UK, RC Model Shop stocks genuine Futaba replacement parts and spares to keep your radio control equipment operating smoothly. This compact set is incredibly easy to store as a ready spare, weighing just 10 grams, so you can keep it in your transmitter bag or pit box without any inconvenience.

Technical Performance
The Futaba Steering Wheel Spring Set 10PX represents a straightforward but essential maintenance component for one of the most popular radio control transmitters on the UK market. The 10PX is a 10-channel radio system that has earned widespread respect amongst serious RC competitors and casual enthusiasts alike, and maintaining its components with genuine spares ensures consistent, reliable operation. Metal springs such as these are engineering components that provide tactile feedback and mechanical consistency to the steering wheel mechanism on your transmitter. Over extended use, particularly if you're regularly running 3S or 4S LiPo-powered brushless RC vehicles that demand precise, responsive control inputs, springs can gradually lose their tension and responsiveness. This official Futaba replacement set restores that original feel and ensures your steering inputs translate accurately to your RC car, truck, buggy, or other vehicle. The metal construction provides excellent durability, and the silver finish resists discolouration and wear, maintaining both functional performance and visual appeal. With a total shipping weight of just 10 grams, this is one of the lightest yet most important components you can carry in your RC kit bag.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the Futaba 10PX and why is this spring set important? — The Futaba 10PX is a professional-grade 10-channel radio control transmitter widely used by RC enthusiasts across the UK for controlling brushless RC buggies, monster trucks, truggies, and short course trucks. The steering wheel assembly includes springs that provide the tactile feedback and mechanical response you feel when controlling your vehicle. These springs are consumable components that gradually wear with use, and replacing them with genuine Futaba spares ensures your transmitter maintains its original responsiveness and control precision.
- How do I know if my steering wheel springs need replacing? — If you notice that your steering wheel feels less responsive, doesn't centre as quickly, or requires more effort to move than it did when new, worn springs are likely the cause. This spring set will restore your transmitter to like-new condition and is an affordable maintenance investment for any serious RC competitor.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Whilst beginners may not immediately need replacement springs if they have a new transmitter, this is a useful component to have on hand for any RC enthusiast who uses their Futaba 10PX regularly. It's part of proper radio control equipment maintenance and demonstrates the importance of genuine spare parts in keeping your kit operating at peak performance.
- What is included in this spring set? — This is a complete steering wheel spring set designed specifically for the Futaba 10PX transmitter, providing all necessary springs for restoring full functionality to your transmitter's steering mechanism.
- Will this spring set work with other Futaba radio transmitters? — This spring set is specifically designed for the 10PX model. Other Futaba transmitter models may use different spring sets, so always verify compatibility with your specific radio control equipment before ordering.
- How often should I replace these springs? — The lifespan of springs depends on usage intensity. Regular RC competitors who use their transmitters frequently throughout the week may want to replace springs annually or as needed when they notice reduced responsiveness. Casual weekend bashers typically won't need replacements as frequently. Having a spare set on hand ensures you're never caught without a quick fix.
