Technical Performance
The FTX Banzai Steering Arms are engineered as critical suspension and steering linkage components for the FTX Banzai 1/10th scale electric RC cars. These arms form part of the front-end geometry system that translates servo input into precise wheel steering angles. Manufactured from durable composite materials, they're designed to absorb the vibrations and impacts encountered during street drifting and general bashing whilst maintaining consistent steering feel. The arms are moulded to exacting specifications that ensure proper Ackermann steering geometry, which is fundamental to maintaining predictable handling through corners. As genuine FTX spares, they're compatible with both the FTX5529G Banzai in green and the FTX5529 Banzai in red, as well as the FTX5536 touring and drift roller chassis. The precision fit and finish mean no modification or adjustment is required upon installation—simply remove the damaged arms and fit the replacement pair, and your steering geometry is immediately restored to factory specification.
