Overview
The FMS FMT10 Colorado Car Body Assembly in striking Blue/White is a premium body shell designed specifically for RC car enthusiasts in the UK who demand authentic styling and professional-grade construction. This is not a complete ready to run RC car, but rather a replacement or upgrade body shell that transforms your existing FMT10 chassis into a realistic Colorado-inspired truck. Whether you're a dedicated RC car UK competitor, a weekend basher, or someone looking to customise your existing brushless RC car, this body assembly offers the perfect combination of authentic design and practical performance.
The FMT10 platform has become increasingly popular amongst RC hobbyists across the United Kingdom and beyond, and FMS have invested considerable effort into making this body shell both visually striking and functionally optimised for on-track and off-track use. The Blue/White colour scheme is eye-catching and distinctive, making it easy to spot your car during group runs or at RC clubs. This body assembly represents FMS's commitment to delivering quality scale RC models with authentic proportions and genuine attention to detail that serious enthusiasts expect.
FMS is renowned for producing scale RC vehicles with exceptional build quality and realistic styling, and this body assembly continues that tradition. It is suitable for hobbyists of all experience levels who already own an FMT10 chassis and wish to refresh their car's appearance or try a different aesthetic. The pre-painted finish means you can install this body and get straight to running without requiring additional painting or preparation work.

Technical Performance
This FMS body assembly is manufactured using quality polycarbonate construction, a material widely favoured across the RC hobby for its excellent balance of durability and lightweight characteristics. The Blue/White pre-painted finish is applied to professional standards, ensuring consistent colour coverage and paint adhesion that resists chipping during normal RC use. The body shell is engineered specifically for the FMT10 platform, meaning it integrates seamlessly with your existing chassis, motor, ESC, and battery without requiring modification. FMS has designed the body with optimal aerodynamics and weight distribution in mind, allowing you to enjoy the full performance capabilities of your brushless RC car system. The authentic Colorado truck styling means this body works equally well whether you're running your FMT10 at your local RC club, at competitive events, or simply enjoying recreational bashing sessions. The precision engineering ensures proper fitment to the chassis, with all mounting points aligning perfectly and body panels sitting flush for a professional appearance. Installation is straightforward—simply remove your existing body, transfer your electronics and drivetrain, and install this assembly using standard RC body clips and fasteners.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this body shell suitable for beginners in the RC hobby? — Yes, this body assembly is suitable for hobbyists of all experience levels. Since it is a pre-painted shell that simply bolts onto an existing FMT10 chassis, installation requires no special skills or equipment. Beginners who already own an FMT10 platform vehicle will find this a straightforward upgrade that immediately transforms their car's appearance.
- Will this body fit my FMT10 RC car without modifications? — This body assembly is specifically engineered for FMT10 chassis vehicles, so it should fit without requiring modifications to either the body or the chassis. However, we always recommend checking that your particular FMT10 variant is compatible before purchasing. The precision engineering ensures that mounting points align correctly and that the body sits properly on the chassis.
- What do I need to install this body on my RC car? — To install this body assembly, you will need an existing FMT10 chassis with electronics already installed, including a suitable motor, ESC, battery, and radio system. You will also need standard RC body clips or fasteners to secure the body shell to the chassis. Once your electronics are transferred from your previous body, this shell simply bolts on without requiring additional components.
- Does this come fully painted, or do I need to paint it myself? — This body assembly comes pre-painted in an authentic Blue/White colour scheme, ready to install straight from the box. You do not need to undertake any painting work, which makes this an excellent choice for hobbyists who either lack painting facilities or prefer to avoid the complexity of finishing bare polycarbonate shells.
- What is the body constructed from? — The FMS FMT10 Colorado body is manufactured from quality polycarbonate material, a durable and lightweight polymer widely used in RC car bodies. Polycarbonate offers excellent impact resistance, meaning the body can withstand minor crashes and collisions without shattering, whilst remaining light enough to minimise the effect on handling and performance.
- Can I use this body with a brushless motor setup? — Yes, this body assembly is compatible with brushless RC motor systems within the FMT10 platform. The body itself is motor-agnostic and will work with any compatible FMT10 drivetrain configuration, whether brushless or brushed, allowing you to use your existing high-performance brushless system without any concerns.
- Is this body available as a replacement, or only as an upgrade? — This body assembly functions as both a replacement shell for damaged bodies and as a cosmetic upgrade for existing FMT10 owners. If your current body is damaged beyond repair, this assembly provides a ready-to-run solution that reinstalls your existing electronics. Alternatively, if you simply wish to refresh your car's appearance or try a different colour scheme, this body offers that flexibility without requiring you to purchase a completely new vehicle.
- What is the warranty coverage for this body? — FMS provides a 30-day return policy for new and unused products purchased directly, covering items that are defective or dead on arrival, as well as those with shipping damage, loss, or missing parts. Electronic accessories carry a 90-day warranty from the date of delivery, with long-term official technician support available.
