Frequently Asked Questions
- What are cable ties used for on an FTX Tracer RC monster truck? — Cable ties are used to secure and organise wiring harnesses, keep battery connections stable and group servo cables and electrical components together.

- How often should I replace cable ties on my RC vehicle? — Cable ties should be inspected regularly during maintenance and replaced whenever they appear cracked, loose or discoloured. High-use vehicles may need replacement every few driving sessions, whilst casual bashers might find they last longer depending on driving intensity and terrain.
