Overview
The RC Overhaul Aluminium Servo / ESC Mount in red is an essential upgrade for any RC enthusiast looking to enhance the reliability and organisation of their Grom's electronics setup. Whether you're converting to brushless power, upgrading your speed controller, or simply seeking to improve the structural integrity of your servo and ESC mounting, this precision-engineered aluminium component delivers a professional-grade solution that transforms your RC car UK experience. Designed specifically for the Grom platform, this mount set provides the rigidity and durability that serious RC car owners demand when pushing their vehicles to their limits on UK tracks and terrain.
Built from high-quality aluminium and finished in striking red, part G-RCO-AR027R represents RC Overhaul's commitment to delivering reliable spare parts and performance upgrades. This servo and ESC mount is particularly valuable when undertaking electronics modifications, as it creates a firm, stable platform that keeps your electrical components securely positioned and properly organised within the chassis. The clean, tidy layout not only improves the appearance of your build but also protects sensitive electronics from vibration-induced damage during aggressive driving sessions. For weekend bashers and competition runners alike, this upgrade offers peace of mind knowing your servo and speed controller are mounted with precision engineering rather than improvised solutions.
The mount set is straightforward to install, making it accessible to RC hobbyists of all skill levels. Whether you're a seasoned RC car enthusiast in the UK who's been running brushless RC cars for years, or someone exploring the transition from brushed to brushless systems, this component bridges the gap between stock mounting and professional-grade electronics installation. When combined with proper assembly technique using thread lock compound on the bolts, this mount delivers the stability and reliability expected from premium RC upgrade parts.
Key Features
- Aluminium Construction — Manufactured from durable aluminium alloy, this mount delivers superior strength and rigidity compared to plastic alternatives, ensuring your servo and ESC remain perfectly positioned even under the stress of high-speed running and aggressive cornering on UK terrain.
- Red Finish — The vibrant red powder coat finish not only looks professional and matches many modern RC car builds, but also provides corrosion resistance to protect against the elements and extend the lifespan of this precision component.
- Firm Mounting Platform — Provides a dedicated, stable base for both your servo and electronic speed controller, eliminating flex and movement that can compromise performance and reliability during competitive runs or casual weekend bashing.
- Brushless Conversion Ready — Specifically designed to accommodate modern brushless ESC units, making this the ideal upgrade when transitioning from brushed to brushless power systems or swapping out your existing speed controller for a higher-performance alternative.
- Improved Component Organisation — The structured mounting design keeps your servo and ESC neatly arranged within the chassis, improving cable management, reducing weight transfer, and creating a cleaner overall installation that's easier to maintain and troubleshoot.
- Bolt-Down Security — Features secure bolt attachment points that, when fitted with thread lock compound, provide vibration-resistant mounting that prevents loosening during intense driving sessions and ensures consistent performance lap after lap.
- Grom Platform Specific — Engineered and tested specifically for Grom-based RC vehicles including the Arrma Grom, Granite Grom, Typhon Grom, and Quake Grom, ensuring perfect fitment without modification or adjustment.
- Straightforward Installation — The simple, intuitive design makes installation accessible to RC hobbyists of all experience levels, from beginners setting up their first brushless system to experienced racers performing mid-season upgrades.
Technical Performance
This aluminium servo and ESC mount represents a significant upgrade in mounting methodology and structural integrity for Grom-platform vehicles. The use of aluminium alloy construction provides exceptional strength-to-weight characteristics, delivering rigidity without adding substantial mass to your chassis. The precision engineering ensures that both your servo actuator and electronic speed controller sit perfectly parallel to the chassis plane, eliminating the binding, flex, and misalignment issues that can occur with improvised or worn factory mounting points. The mount's design accommodates modern brushless ESC units of various dimensions, making it suitable whether you're running a compact racing ESC or a more feature-rich speed controller with telemetry and programming capabilities. The red powder coat finish isn't merely cosmetic—it provides a protective barrier against moisture, dust, and the corrosive effects of track chemicals and salt spray encountered during UK RC car racing. When properly assembled with thread lock compound applied to the mounting bolts, this component eliminates vibration-induced loosening, a common failure point in RC vehicles subjected to continuous high-frequency vibration. The mount's load-bearing capability ensures that even during aggressive acceleration, braking, and cornering forces—particularly relevant for brushless RC cars capable of high G-force manoeuvres—your electronics remain perfectly positioned, maintaining optimal weight distribution and chassis balance throughout your driving session.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the RC Overhaul Servo Mount suitable for upgrading my Grom to brushless power? — Yes, this mount is specifically designed for brushless conversions and ESC replacements. The firm aluminium platform provides the stable mounting that modern brushless speed controllers require for optimal performance and reliability. Whether you're upgrading from brushed to brushless for the first time or swapping between different ESC units, this mount creates the professional installation standard expected in modern brushless RC cars.
- Will this mount fit my Arrma Grom, Granite Grom, Typhon Grom, or Quake Grom? — This mount is engineered specifically for Grom-based platforms including all Arrma Grom variants. The mounting points are precisely designed to integrate seamlessly with the Grom chassis without modification or fitting issues.
- What is thread lock and why should I use it with this mount? — Thread lock is a liquid adhesive compound that you apply to bolt threads before installation. It prevents bolts from gradually loosening due to vibration during driving. For this servo and ESC mount, a small amount of medium-strength thread lock compound on the bolts will ensure your electronics remain firmly secured throughout extended driving sessions and competition runs.
- How does this aluminium mount compare to plastic mounting solutions? — Aluminium provides superior rigidity and vibration damping compared to plastic alternatives, meaning your servo and ESC remain positioned with greater precision. This improved stability translates to more consistent performance, better weight distribution, and reduced stress on delicate electronic components. Aluminium also resists flex under load, a common weakness of plastic mounts in high-performance applications.
- Can I install this mount myself, or do I need professional help? — The RC Overhaul Servo / ESC Mount is designed for straightforward installation by RC hobbyists of all skill levels. You'll need basic tools (a small screwdriver) and some thread lock compound. Detailed instructions and installation guidance are included, making this an excellent upgrade project for anyone looking to improve their Grom's electronics setup without requiring professional assistance.
- What colour options are available? — This mount is available in red. It provides a vibrant, professional appearance that complements many modern RC car builds and matches popular colour schemes across the Grom platform.
