FAST679

Overview

The Fastrax Transmitter Muff-Stick W/Window (FAST679) is an essential accessory for every RC enthusiast who wants to stay comfortable during racing events and outdoor bashing sessions. Whether you're competing at the track or enjoying weekend fun with your RC car, this transmitter muff keeps your hands warm and protected from the elements whilst you maintain full control of your radio. Designed with the UK's unpredictable weather in mind, this is the perfect solution for extending your running time during cold, wet conditions when your fingers might otherwise become too numb to operate your stick-style transmitter effectively.

Fastrax has engineered this muff specifically for drivers who use twin stick or wheel-style radios, making it compatible with the vast majority of modern RC transmitters. The inclusion of a PVC window means you can monitor your transmitter's screen and settings without removing the muff, keeping your hands warm throughout your entire 5-minute racing stint. This is a piece of kit that transforms your RC experience from uncomfortable to genuinely enjoyable, particularly during the colder months or at indoor tracks where temperature control isn't always available.

For anyone serious about RC car racing in the UK, this Fastrax accessory represents outstanding value at just £19.99. Whether you're running nitro RC cars, electric RC buggies, or any other RC vehicle type, having a quality transmitter muff in your pit bag is a mark of a dedicated hobbyist who understands that comfort equals better control and better lap times.

Key Features

• PVC Window for Viewing — The transparent PVC window allows you to see your transmitter's LCD screen, trim adjustments and channel indicators without having to remove the muff from your hands, meaning you stay warm whilst maintaining full awareness of your radio settings during your race run.
• Ergonomic Design — Carefully engineered to fit either twin stick style transmitters or wheel-style radios, the ergonomic shape ensures the muff sits comfortably in your hands and doesn't interfere with trigger access, throttle control or steering inputs, so you can race at your best.
• Internal Fleece Lining — The soft fleece interior provides insulation and comfort, protecting your hands from cold transmitter shells and keeping them warm during extended outdoor sessions, particularly valuable during winter RC racing or early morning track days.
• Hook and Loop Fastener Base — The secure Hook and Loop Fastener (Velcro-style) fastening system at the base of the muff provides a reliable, adjustable fit that won't slip or come loose during intense driving, and can be easily adjusted to suit different hand sizes.
• Embroidered Fastrax Logo — The outward-facing embroidered Fastrax branding adds a professional touch and shows your allegiance to quality RC accessories, whilst also ensuring the logo won't wear off like printed designs would after months of use.
• Universal Compatibility — Works with both traditional stick-style transmitters and modern wheel-style radio systems, making this a versatile addition to any RC enthusiast's pit bag regardless of their preferred controller type.

Technical Performance

The Fastrax Transmitter Muff-Stick W/Window is constructed with durability and practicality in mind. The combination of external materials designed to resist water and cold with the internal fleece lining creates an effective barrier against the elements whilst remaining breathable and comfortable during extended use. The PVC window is optically clear, providing an unobstructed view of your transmitter's display so you can make trim adjustments and monitor battery voltage without any fumbling or removing the muff. The Hook and Loop Fastener system at the base is engineered to provide consistent grip and adjustment without damage to your transmitter's casing. This muff is equally at home at an organised RC racing event, a local RC track, a backyard bashing session, or an indoor RC facility, making it a truly universal accessory that will see regular use throughout the year for any RC hobbyist operating in the UK's variable climate conditions.
