Vitavon VITAR310854 Silver Arrma 6S Front/Rear Bulkhead Upgrade For AR310854

Overview

The Vitavon VITAR310854 Silver Arrma 6S Front/Rear Bulkhead Upgrade represents a significant performance and durability enhancement for owners of Arrma 6S scale RC vehicles. Whether you're piloting a Kraton, Mojave, Typhon, Notorious, or any of the other compatible Arrma 6S models, this precision-engineered aluminium bulkhead upgrade transforms the structural integrity of your RC car UK setup. This isn't just another aftermarket part – it's an investment in reliability, precision engineering, and the kind of performance improvements that serious RC enthusiasts demand from their vehicles.

Designed specifically to replace the original stock AR310854 bulkhead component, the Vitavon upgrade is crafted from premium grade 7075 aluminium alloy, a material renowned in the RC industry for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. This bulkhead serves as a critical structural component in your Arrma 6S buggy, crawler, drift car, scale truck or short course truck, bearing the forces generated during high-speed running, aggressive cornering, and challenging terrain. By upgrading to the Vitavon CNC-manufactured bulkhead, you're replacing a stock component with a precision-engineered alternative that will withstand the demands of competitive racing and weekend bashing alike.

This upgrade is particularly appealing to RC enthusiasts who want to extend the lifespan of their vehicles, reduce maintenance downtime, and enjoy the confidence that comes from knowing your chassis is built on upgraded, high-strength foundations. The ready to run RC experience is elevated when your mechanical components are up to the task, and Vitavon's reputation for quality aftermarket upgrades ensures you're getting a genuine, properly manufactured part that will integrate seamlessly with your existing Arrma 6S setup.

Key Features

• CNC-Machined Grade 7075 Aluminium Construction — This bulkhead is manufactured from premium grade 7075 aluminium alloy, one of the strongest aluminium grades available in RC applications, offering superior durability compared to the stock plastic or weaker metal alternatives, which means your RC car UK will handle aggressive driving and crashes with greater resilience.
• Precision CNC Manufacturing — Every Vitavon bulkhead is computer numerically controlled during manufacturing, ensuring exact tolerances and perfect fitment with your existing Arrma 6S components, eliminating the frustration of loose parts or misalignment that can occur with lower-quality alternatives.
• Oversized Bearing Upgrade — The bulkhead features an oversize 5x13x4mm bearing on the frontal component instead of the stock 5x11x4mm bearing, which provides reduced friction, smoother rotation, and extended bearing lifespan, directly translating to improved handling and faster acceleration in your brushless RC buggy or short course truck.
• Front or Rear Configuration Options — Available as either a front or rear bulkhead upgrade, allowing you to upgrade one component at a time or invest in both for complete chassis strengthening, giving you flexibility in how you upgrade your vehicle.
• Compatible with Multiple Arrma 6S Models — This single upgrade works across the entire Arrma 6S range including Mojave, Senton, Typhon, Talion, Kraton, Outcast, Notorious, Big Rock, and the newer Kraton 6S EXB ARA8708V5, making it a versatile choice for multi-vehicle RC collections or as a future-proof upgrade.
• Direct Replacement for Original AR310854 — Designed as a drop-in replacement for the original stock part number AR310854, this bulkhead requires no modification to your Arrma 6S chassis, suspension, or drivetrain, ensuring a straightforward installation process suitable for both beginners and experienced RC enthusiasts.
• Multiple Colour Options — Available in black, silver, and red finishes, allowing you to customise your RC car UK's appearance whilst upgrading its performance and durability.

Technical Performance

The Vitavon VITAR310854 bulkhead represents a significant leap in engineering quality over stock components. Constructed from 7075-T6 grade aluminium alloy, this material is specifically chosen for its exceptional strength characteristics – it's the same material used in aerospace applications and high-performance racing vehicles. The CNC machining process ensures that every dimension is manufactured to exacting tolerances, eliminating the dimensional variability that can occur with injection-moulded plastic or lower-grade stamped metal parts. The oversized bearing upgrade from 5x11x4mm to 5x13x4mm is a technically significant improvement that reduces rotational resistance, allowing your brushless RC motor to operate more efficiently and your vehicle to achieve better acceleration and top speed. This bulkhead is compatible with all major Arrma 6S platforms across scales including 1/7, 1/8, and 1/10, whether you're running a Kraton, Mojave, Typhon, Notorious, Big Rock, or any other model in the Arrma 6S EXB lineup. The aluminium construction offers superior vibration damping compared to plastic alternatives, which translates to more precise handling characteristics and reduced chassis flex during hard cornering or high-speed straight-line running. For users of 4WD buggies, crawlers, and short course trucks, this upgrade provides the structural backbone necessary for sustained high-performance operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Which Arrma 6S models is this bulkhead compatible with? — The Vitavon VITAR310854 is a direct replacement for part number AR310854 and is compatible with the full range of Arrma 6S vehicles including the Mojave, Senton, Typhon, Talion, Kraton 6S, Kraton 6S EXB (V5 and V6 versions), Outcast, Notorious EXB V6, Big Rock BLX, Fireteam, Felony, Infraction, and Limitless models. If you own any of these ready to run RC vehicles or are considering purchasing one, this upgrade will fit directly.
• Do I need both front and rear bulkheads or just one? — You can purchase either the front or rear bulkhead as a standalone upgrade, allowing you to gradually improve your chassis. However, for maximum benefit and balanced performance across your entire RC car UK, upgrading both front and rear is recommended, with each bulkhead sold separately.
• What is the advantage of the oversized bearing? — The upgraded 5x13x4mm bearing (compared to stock 5x11x4mm) has a larger outer diameter and width, which distributes loads more effectively and reduces friction during rotation. This means your brushless RC buggy or short course truck will experience smoother drivetrain operation, less heat generation, and improved acceleration response.
• Is this upgrade suitable for beginners? — Yes, this bulkhead is an excellent upgrade even for newcomers to RC cars UK, as it's a simple, direct replacement requiring no modification to existing components. Installation involves removing the old bulkhead and installing the new one – a task that typically takes 15-20 minutes with basic hex key tools.
• Why choose 7075 aluminium over plastic? — Grade 7075 aluminium is significantly stronger, more rigid, and more durable than the plastic or lower-grade metal found in stock bulkheads. It won't crack or flex under stress, survives impacts better, and maintains dimensional accuracy over thousands of running hours, making it the superior choice for serious RC enthusiasts who want a vehicle that will last.
• Can I install this myself or do I need professional help? — The Vitavon bulkhead is designed as a direct replacement that requires no modification and can be installed with basic RC tools and a small amount of mechanical knowledge. Most RC enthusiasts can complete the installation independently, though if you're uncomfortable working on your vehicle, your local RC hobby shop can assist.
• Is this a genuine Vitavon part? — When you purchase from RC Model Shop, you receive a genuine Vitavon component manufactured to the brand's exacting standards. Vitavon is recognised globally as a premium manufacturer of RC aftermarket upgrades and parts.
