This is a genuine ARRMA spare part manufactured to the same exacting standards as the vehicles it supports. The precision-engineered mounting holes ensure fast and straightforward servicing, reducing downtime and keeping your RC model ready for action. If you own either the Infraction 6S BLX or the Limitless 8S AVC, having a quality replacement chassis plate on hand is essential for maintaining peak performance and ensuring your RC car remains competitive throughout the season.
Key Features
- High-Quality Aluminium Construction — The chassis plate is manufactured from premium aluminium which significantly reduces overall vehicle weight compared to heavier materials, allowing for improved acceleration and handling whilst maintaining the strength required to withstand the demands of high-speed RC driving and competitive use.
- Anodised Black Finish — The anodised black coating serves dual purposes: it delivers a professional and visually striking appearance that looks stunning on any RC car, whilst simultaneously providing enhanced durability and protection against corrosion, scratching and UV damage from outdoor use.
- Precision Manufactured Hardware Mounting Holes — Every mounting hole has been machined with exacting precision to ensure perfect alignment and fast assembly, eliminating frustration during servicing and allowing you to spend less time on maintenance and more time driving your RC car.
- Integrated Droop Setting Plates — The integrated droop plates built directly into the chassis design enable advanced suspension tuning options that can be adjusted within minutes, giving you the ability to fine-tune your vehicle's geometry for optimal handling on different track surfaces and racing conditions without requiring additional components.
- Perfect Balance of Strength and Handling — This chassis plate has been engineered to provide the ideal equilibrium between structural strength and consistent handling characteristics, ensuring your RC vehicle maintains predictable, responsive performance whether you're bashing in the garden or competing at an organised RC track event.
