Overview

The FTX Stinger Servo Mount (FTX10517) is an essential replacement chassis spare for owners of FTX on-road street RC cars. Whether you're maintaining your FTX Stinger 1/10 brushless RTR or looking after an FTX EVO30 street car, this servo mount is a critical component that ensures precise steering control and reliable performance.

The FTX Stinger servo mount is compatible with multiple FTX models, making it a versatile addition to any RC enthusiast's spares box who operates brushless or brushed street cars in the 1/10 scale category.

RC Model Shop stocks genuine FTX spares, ensuring you receive authentic components that match the quality and fit of your original equipment. Whether you're a weekend basher enjoying high-speed street runs or a dedicated racer fine-tuning your setup, having quality replacement parts like this servo mount on hand means minimal downtime and maximum track time.

Technical Performance

The FTX Stinger servo mount is a precision-engineered component designed to withstand the rigorous demands of 1/10 scale on-road RC racing and recreational driving. As a critical interface between your servo motor and the steering mechanism, this mount must maintain excellent dimensional accuracy and structural integrity under loads generated by high-speed cornering, rapid steering inputs, and the inevitable impacts that come with RC driving. FTX has engineered this component to maintain servo alignment even under stress, ensuring that steering inputs remain true and predictable. The mount interfaces with steering linkages and pivot points to create a rigid yet responsive steering system. For brushless RC cars like the Stinger RTR, which can achieve significant speed on tarmac surfaces, a solid servo mount is essential for maintaining control precision at high velocity. The component's design accommodates standard digital servo dimensions, making it compatible with the servo systems fitted to genuine FTX RTR kits whilst allowing for future servo upgrades if desired.
