Frequently Asked Questions

• What is a spacer used for in RC cars? — A spacer or shim is a precision ring or washer that sits between components to maintain exact spacing and alignment. In RC cars, spacers are used to adjust suspension geometry, maintain proper axle clearances, space gears correctly, and ensure that moving parts operate with the correct tolerances. Proper spacing is critical for smooth handling, reduced wear, and optimal performance.
• What RC models is the HoBao Spacer 5 X 11 X 0.2MM compatible with? — The 5mm inner diameter and 11mm outer diameter of this spacer make it compatible with HoBao RC vehicles and many other standard RC platforms that use 5mm axle shafts or mounting points. Always check your specific RC model's manual or parts list to confirm compatibility before ordering, as different RC car types may use different sized spacers.
• How often should I replace spacers on my RC car? — Spacers typically don't wear out during normal use, but they may need to be replaced if damaged, lost, or if you're fine-tuning your RC car's setup. Having spare spacers on hand is recommended for any serious RC hobbyist, as they are inexpensive and essential for maintenance and adjustments.
• Is the 0.2mm thickness important? — Yes, the 0.2mm thickness is critical because it provides fine-tuning capability for precision adjustments. In RC cars, small changes in spacing can affect suspension geometry, handling characteristics, and component clearances. The thin profile of this spacer makes it ideal for making small adjustments to get your RC model set up perfectly.
• Can I use this spacer for different RC car types? — While the 5mm x 11mm dimensions are fairly common across many RC vehicles, compatibility depends on your specific RC model. Check your RC car's manual or parts diagram to verify that this spacer matches the specifications required for your vehicle before purchasing.
