Overview
The VITAVON LaserNut CNC Alu7075 Rear Bulkhead is a premium upgrade component designed specifically for the Losi LaserNut DB Pro, one of the most popular 1/5-scale RC buggies available to enthusiasts in the UK. Manufactured from high-grade 7075 aluminium alloy, this rear bulkhead replacement offers a significant step up in durability and performance compared to standard plastic components. Whether you're a dedicated RC hobbyist running your LaserNut DB Pro at the track, bashing in the garden, or competing in organised events, this VITAVON upgrade delivers the precision engineering and robust construction that serious RC drivers demand.
VITAVON has earned a strong reputation among the RC car UK community for producing CNC-machined components that combine lightweight strength with meticulous attention to detail. This rear bulkhead is no exception. The use of 7075 aluminium means your LaserNut DB Pro will benefit from reduced flex, improved handling precision, and enhanced durability under the stresses of high-performance driving. RC enthusiasts often find that upgrading key structural components like the rear bulkhead can transform their driving experience, providing better feedback through the chassis and more predictable handling characteristics that translate to faster lap times and more enjoyable bashing sessions.
Available in silver with the option to request red as an alternative colour, this component is a direct fit for your Losi LaserNut DB Pro and requires no modification or additional parts to install. It's the kind of upgrade that serious RC buggy drivers choose when they want their vehicle to perform at its absolute best, combining engineered precision with practical durability for the UK's diverse RC driving conditions.
Key Features
- High-Quality 7075 Aluminium Construction — This rear bulkhead is precision-machined from 7075 aluminium alloy, one of the strongest and most durable aluminium grades available for RC applications, ensuring excellent strength-to-weight ratio and superior rigidity compared to standard plastic alternatives.
- CNC Precision Manufacturing — Every component is produced using Computer Numerical Control machining, guaranteeing exact tolerances and consistent quality across every unit, which means your LaserNut DB Pro will have perfectly aligned suspension and drivetrain geometry.
- Direct Fit for Losi LaserNut DB Pro — Engineered specifically for the Losi LaserNut DB Pro platform, this bulkhead integrates seamlessly with your existing chassis and suspension geometry without requiring modifications or additional spacers.
- Reduced Flex and Improved Handling — The rigid 7075 aluminium construction minimises chassis flex during aggressive driving, delivering more responsive steering input and predictable handling that translates to better control and faster lap times on the track or smoother runs through your favourite bashing spots.
- Enhanced Durability Under Stress — Compared to plastic bulkheads, the metal construction provides superior impact resistance and maintains structural integrity even after repeated heavy landings, jumps, and high-speed manoeuvres that would damage or flex weaker components.
- Available Colour Options — Supplied in silver as standard, with the option to request red as an alternative colour; simply confirm your preference in your order confirmation if you prefer the red finish for a custom look that stands out on the track.
- Trusted by RC Enthusiasts — VITAVON components are recognised across the RC buggy community for their quality and performance, with many serious drivers choosing VITAVON upgrades to build competition-grade vehicles that perform consistently across multiple events.
Technical Performance
The VITAVON LaserNut CNC Alu7075 Rear Bulkhead represents serious engineering designed for drivers who understand that chassis rigidity directly impacts vehicle performance. Manufactured from aerospace-grade 7075 aluminium alloy, this component is significantly stiffer than the plastic rear bulkhead found on stock LaserNut DB Pro models. The precision CNC machining ensures that every mounting point is perfectly aligned, which is critical for maintaining proper suspension geometry and drivetrain alignment at high speeds. For RC drivers running their LaserNut DB Pro competitively, this level of precision translates to more predictable handling characteristics, reduced setup variation between races, and improved feedback through the steering. The material choice also provides excellent durability; whilst plastic bulkheads can warp or crack under the stresses of aggressive driving, the aluminium construction will maintain its integrity through countless jumps, hard landings, and intense driving sessions. This makes it an investment in long-term reliability and performance, particularly for drivers who want to minimise maintenance and component replacement during the racing season. The bulkhead integrates seamlessly with all standard Losi LaserNut DB Pro suspension components and works with all motor and drivetrain configurations supported by the platform.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this rear bulkhead a direct fit for my Losi LaserNut DB Pro? — Yes, this VITAVON rear bulkhead is engineered specifically for the Losi LaserNut DB Pro and requires no modification to install. Simply remove your stock bulkhead and bolt this component in place using your existing hardware.
- What colour options are available for this rear bulkhead? — This rear bulkhead is supplied in silver as the default colour. If you require red or a different colour finish, simply reply to your order confirmation specifying your preferred colour choice, and VITAVON will prepare your component accordingly.
- Why would I upgrade from the standard plastic rear bulkhead? — The stock plastic rear bulkhead on the LaserNut DB Pro can flex during hard driving, which affects suspension geometry and steering response. This CNC-machined aluminium upgrade provides superior rigidity, reducing flex and improving handling precision, which is why serious RC buggy drivers choose it for competitive driving and performance bashing.
- Is this upgrade suitable for beginners? — Whilst there are no technical barriers to installation, this is an upgrade component best suited to drivers who already own a LaserNut DB Pro and are looking to enhance performance. Beginners might be better served by learning the basics of their stock vehicle before investing in performance upgrades, though this component is certainly compatible with any LaserNut DB Pro regardless of skill level.
- What is the material used in this rear bulkhead? — The rear bulkhead is manufactured from 7075 aluminium alloy, one of the strongest grades of aluminium available for RC applications, offering exceptional strength, rigidity, and durability compared to standard plastic components.
- How does CNC manufacturing ensure quality? — CNC machining uses computer-controlled tools to produce components to exact specifications, ensuring that every rear bulkhead produced meets identical tolerances and quality standards, with no variation between units. This precision is particularly important for suspension components where alignment affects vehicle handling.
- Can I use this with other Losi models? — No, this rear bulkhead is specifically designed for the Losi LaserNut DB Pro. Whilst it may have similar dimensions to other Losi 1/5-scale models, VITAVON designs their components for specific platforms, and using this on an incompatible model may result in misalignment or fitment issues.
- Does this component require any additional parts to install? — No, this rear bulkhead is a direct replacement and uses your existing mounting hardware. You simply remove your stock bulkhead and install this aluminium component in its place.
