Overview
The Fastrax Short Antenna/Flag Pole 115mm in Silver is an essential accessory for RC crawler enthusiasts and scale modellers who demand authenticity and durability in their builds. Whether you're running a 1/10 scale crawler, rock crawler, or any RC vehicle that benefits from realistic antenna or flag pole detailing, this component delivers professional-grade quality at an affordable price. Available from RC Model Shop, a trusted UK RC retailer, this Fastrax accessory is designed to enhance the visual appeal and functionality of your RC crawler whilst maintaining the highest standards of manufacturing precision.
As an official Fastrax product, this short antenna/flag pole is engineered to withstand the rigours of off-road RC driving, whether you're bashing through muddy terrain, navigating rocky obstacles, or displaying your crawler at RC events across the UK. The 115mm length makes it ideal for 1/10 scale crawlers, providing balanced proportions that look authentic without interfering with handling or visibility during driving. The silver colour finish offers excellent contrast against most body colours, making your RC model stand out on the track or trail whilst maintaining a realistic appearance that appeals to scale-conscious builders and bashers alike.
This is the kind of quality accessory that separates a basic RC car from a properly finished, competition-ready or display-worthy build. If you're investing time and money into your RC crawler, you deserve components that match that commitment—and Fastrax delivers exactly that with this reliable, attractive antenna/flag pole option.
Key Features
- 115mm Length — At 115mm long, this antenna/flag pole is specifically proportioned for 1/10 scale RC crawlers, ensuring the accessory looks correctly scaled to your model without appearing oversized or undersized relative to the body and chassis dimensions.
- Silver Colour Finish — The bright silver metallic finish provides excellent visual contrast and reflects light realistically, making your RC crawler more visible during driving sessions and more visually striking in display or competition environments.
- 1/10 Scale Compatibility — Engineered as a 1/10 scale crawler accessory, this antenna/flag pole integrates seamlessly with popular 1/10 scale RC platforms used by crawlers, bashers, and scale modellers throughout the UK and beyond.
- Fastrax Quality Engineering — Manufactured by Fastrax, a recognised brand in the RC hobby community, this component benefits from proven design principles and quality control standards that ensure durability and reliable performance across multiple driving seasons.
- Antenna/Flag Pole Versatility — Whether you intend to use this as a functional antenna for signal reception or as a decorative flag pole to add scale realism and visual interest to your crawler build, the design accommodates both applications effectively.
- Durable Construction — Built to withstand impact, vibration, and the environmental stresses of off-road RC driving, this antenna/flag pole maintains its appearance and structural integrity even after extended use in demanding conditions.
Technical Performance
The Fastrax Short Antenna/Flag Pole 115mm represents precision engineering applied to RC crawler accessory design. At 115mm in length, the dimensions are carefully calculated to provide appropriate scale proportions for 1/10 scale RC vehicles, which typically range from 300mm to 400mm in overall wheelbase length. This sizing ensures the antenna/flag pole doesn't appear disproportionate or cause handling imbalances. The silver colour finish is applied using durable coating techniques that resist fading from UV exposure during outdoor driving sessions, maintaining the bright metallic appearance that makes your RC crawler visually distinctive. The construction methodology reflects Fastrax's commitment to quality, utilising materials selected for their combination of lightweight properties and impact resistance—critical considerations for any component that extends outward from the main chassis and is therefore prone to contact with terrain, obstacles, and brushes during trail driving. Whether mounted as a functional antenna improving signal reception, or purely for aesthetic purposes as a scale-model flag pole, this accessory demonstrates the engineering rigour that distinguishes Fastrax products in the competitive RC hobby market across the UK.
