Overview
The FTX RALLY MOULDED SERVO SAVER SET FTX11304 is an essential replacement or upgrade component for owners of the FTX MK2RS 1/10th brushless rally car. Whether you're a dedicated RC enthusiast looking to maintain your ready to run RC car UK or someone seeking to enhance the durability of your rally vehicle, this moulded servo saver set delivers reliable performance and protection for your steering servo. As a critical part of the steering system in any RC rally car, the servo saver acts as a shock absorber and protective barrier between your radio control servo and the steering linkages, preventing costly damage during impacts and hard cornering.
Rally racing demands precision steering and robust components that can withstand the rigours of high-speed competition and aggressive driving. The FTX Rally MK2RS is renowned as a versatile and capable 1/10th scale brushless rally car, perfect for both competitive events and recreational bashing. The moulded construction of this servo saver set ensures it integrates seamlessly with your existing rally setup whilst providing enhanced durability compared to standard components. This is the genuine FTX replacement part, manufactured to the exact specifications required for optimal fitment and performance on your rally car.
If you own an FTX5470BK or FTX5470W model (the MK2RS available in black or white), or if you're building a custom rally setup, having a quality servo saver is absolutely essential. This component protects your investment, reduces maintenance costs, and keeps your RC rally car running smoothly through countless hours of thrilling high-speed action.
Key Features
- Moulded Construction — The servo saver is manufactured using precision moulding techniques, which ensures consistent quality, perfect fitment, and reliable performance across every set produced. This manufacturing method also makes the component lighter than machined alternatives whilst maintaining excellent strength.
- Purpose-Built for FTX MK2RS — This component is specifically engineered for the FTX MK2RS 1/10th brushless rally car, guaranteeing compatibility with both the black (FTX5470BK) and white (FTX5470W) variants. Using the correct OEM component ensures your steering system works exactly as the manufacturer intended.
- Servo Protection — The servo saver acts as a mechanical buffer between your digital servo and the steering linkages, absorbing impacts and reducing the strain placed on the servo during hard cornering, jumps, and collisions. This protection significantly extends the lifespan of your servo and reduces the risk of costly failures.
- Reliable Steering Response — By maintaining consistent engagement with the steering system whilst protecting against shock loads, this servo saver preserves the precision and responsiveness that makes rally racing so enjoyable. Your steering inputs remain crisp and accurate lap after lap.
- Genuine FTX Component — As an official FTX spare part, you can be confident that this is the authentic component designed and approved by FTX for use in their rally vehicles. Aftermarket alternatives may not fit correctly or provide the same level of protection.
- Easy Installation — The servo saver installs directly into your existing rally setup without requiring modifications or additional engineering. If you're replacing a worn component, installation is straightforward and takes only minutes.
Technical Performance
The FTX RALLY MOULDED SERVO SAVER SET represents the engineering standards you'd expect from a manufacturer that specialises in quality RC vehicles. The moulded design provides an optimal balance between weight savings and structural integrity, crucial for maintaining the nimble handling characteristics the FTX MK2RS is known for. In rally racing, where precision steering and rapid directional changes are essential, the servo saver plays a vital role in maintaining the connection between your radio control transmitter inputs and the actual steering response of the car. The moulded material is chosen to absorb vibration and shock loads whilst remaining dimensionally stable even during extended driving sessions. This component works in harmony with the MK2RS's brushless motor system and precision radio gear to deliver the consistent, reliable performance demanded by both casual RC enthusiasts and competitive racers. The servo saver is particularly important in rally applications where drivers are constantly making sharp inputs and pushing their vehicles to the limit across varied terrain.
