Overview
The Fastrax Magnetic Body Post Markers in black are an essential accessory for serious RC enthusiasts who demand precision and reliability from their hobby setup. Whether you're a competitive racer, weekend basher, or dedicated crawler pilot, these innovative magnetic markers are designed to help you align your RC car body perfectly during assembly, maintenance, and setup adjustments. Based in the heart of the UK RC community, RC Model Shop stocks genuine Fastrax components that represent the pinnacle of quality and attention to detail. These body post markers solve a common problem faced by RC car UK enthusiasts: achieving consistent body positioning and ensuring your shell sits exactly where it should every single time.
Body post markers might seem like a small accessory, but they represent the kind of thoughtful engineering that separates amateur setups from professional-grade builds. When you're investing in a high-performance RC car—whether that's a brushless monster truck, a lightweight buggy, or a precision crawler—every millimetre of alignment matters. The Fastrax Magnetic Body Post Markers give you the ability to mark and remember the exact positioning of your bodyshell, eliminating guesswork and ensuring consistency across multiple sessions at the track or trail. This is particularly valuable when you're dialling in your RC vehicle's performance, as body position can subtly affect weight distribution, aerodynamics, and overall handling characteristics.
Available in a sleek black finish that complements any RC car colour scheme, these magnetic markers are built from durable materials designed to withstand the demands of regular use in the workshop. The magnetic design means they grip securely to metal body posts without requiring adhesive or additional fasteners, making them quick to install, easy to reposition, and completely non-destructive to your valuable bodyshell. Whether you're running a ready to run RC model or a custom-built competition machine, the Fastrax Magnetic Body Post Markers are an intelligent investment in precision and organisation.
Key Features
- Magnetic Design — These markers utilise integrated magnets that grip firmly to metal body posts without slipping, sliding, or requiring any adhesive, allowing you to quickly move them between sessions or adjust positioning as needed.
- Precision Body Alignment — By marking the exact position of your bodyshell on each post, you can guarantee perfect alignment every time you assemble your RC car, eliminating the inconsistency that comes from eyeballing body position.
- Non-Destructive Installation — Unlike stickers or paint marks, these magnetic markers leave no permanent marks on your bodyshell or posts, meaning you can reposition them freely without damaging your expensive RC components.
- Black Finish — The sleek black colour matches professional workshop aesthetics and complements any RC car body colour, from bright metallics to subtle factory finishes.
- Universal Compatibility — These markers work with any RC car that features metal body posts, making them suitable for everything from 1/10-scale buggies to larger scale crawlers and trucks across all major brands including Traxxas, ARRMA, Losi, and Team Associated models.
- Durable Construction — Manufactured by Fastrax, a recognised leader in RC accessories and parts throughout the UK and Europe, these markers are built to last through countless setup changes and adjustments.
- Quick Visual Reference — The magnetic markers create an instant visual guide that helps you remember exactly where your body should sit, which is invaluable when switching between different setups or returning to a previous configuration that performed well.
Technical Performance
The Fastrax Magnetic Body Post Markers represent thoughtful engineering applied to the RC workshop environment. Constructed with genuine neodymium magnets embedded in a durable black polymer housing, these markers offer reliable adhesion to ferrous metal body posts without the risk of slippage that can occur with cheaper magnetic solutions. The engineering behind these markers ensures that they maintain their magnetic strength through hundreds of placement and removal cycles, making them a long-term investment rather than a disposable accessory. The black finish is resistant to fading and discolouration even with extended exposure to UV light in outdoor storage or sunny workshop environments. For hobbyists running multiple RC cars—whether you're balancing a brushless 4WD buggy alongside a dedicated crawler or maintaining several vehicles at different levels of tune—these markers become invaluable for tracking which body alignment works best for specific track conditions or terrain types. The precision they offer translates directly into better performance consistency, as even minor variations in body position can affect your RC car's centre of gravity and handling balance. Fastrax components are distributed throughout the UK and recognised for meeting exacting quality standards that appeal to both casual enthusiasts and serious competitors who refuse to compromise on equipment reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why should I use magnetic body post markers for my RC car? — Magnetic markers allow you to record the exact position of your bodyshell on each post, ensuring perfect alignment consistency every time you assemble your RC vehicle. This is especially important when you're testing different setups or returning to a configuration that worked well previously. The non-permanent nature of magnetic markers means you can adjust your setup without damaging your body or posts.
- Will these magnetic markers work with my RC car? — Yes, the Fastrax Magnetic Body Post Markers are designed for universal compatibility with any RC car that features metal body posts. This includes ready to run models, race kits, and custom builds from all major manufacturers including Traxxas, ARRMA, Losi, Team Associated, and independent builders.
- How many markers come in each pack? — The product listing specifies this is a set of markers; however, for the exact quantity, we recommend contacting RC Model Shop directly to confirm your specific requirements before ordering.
- Are these markers permanent? — No, these are completely non-destructive and non-permanent. The magnetic design means they grip to your posts without adhesive, paint, or any permanent attachment method. You can move them freely, remove them entirely, or reposition them to track different body alignments without leaving any mark on your vehicle.
- Can I use these markers if my body posts are plastic? — Magnetic markers only work reliably on ferrous metal posts. If your RC car uses plastic body posts, these markers will not provide adequate grip. Most metal-post equipped vehicles will work perfectly, including most crawlers, buggies, trucks, and competition vehicles available in the UK RC market.
- How durable are Fastrax magnetic markers? — Fastrax is a respected manufacturer throughout the UK RC community, and these markers are engineered for long-term durability. The neodymium magnets maintain their strength through hundreds of cycles, and the black polymer housing resists impact, UV fading, and environmental degradation.
- Are these suitable for competitive racing? — Absolutely. Competitive racers value consistency and precision in their setup, and magnetic body post markers help you achieve exactly that by maintaining perfect alignment between sessions and across different track conditions.
