Technical Performance
The servo and upper plate mounts included in this FTX6401 kit are manufactured using durable materials selected for their strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to the rigours of 1/10 scale nitro RC driving. These mounts must withstand constant vibration from the nitro engine, high-G cornering forces, and the occasional crash impact that comes with aggressive off-road driving. FTX has engineered these components to maintain precise alignment of the servo mechanism, which is absolutely critical for steering consistency in competitive situations. The upper plate mounts secure the truck's upper frame structure, distributing loads evenly across the chassis and preventing flexing that would otherwise compromise handling and steering feel. When these mounts become worn, cracked, or damaged through normal use or impact, replacement becomes essential to restore your truck's handling characteristics. The mounts are designed to work in perfect harmony with the Carnage NT and Zorro NT's suspension geometry, ensuring that steering inputs are translated directly to wheel movement without lag or inconsistency. Whether you're running your 1/10 nitro RC truck on a competitive UK RC racing circuit or enjoying recreational bashing at your local RC club, maintaining these critical components in good condition ensures reliable performance and predictable handling every time you take to the track.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these servo mounts compatible with both the Carnage NT and Zorro NT? — Yes, these FTX6401 servo and upper plate mounts are specifically designed to fit both the FTX Carnage NT and the FTX Zorro NT RC trucks. Both models share compatible chassis geometry in this area, making this a universal replacement for either vehicle.
- When would I need to replace these servo mounts? — You should consider replacing these mounts if you notice reduced steering responsiveness, sloppy steering feel, or visible cracks and damage to the existing mounts. Extended use, high-impact crashes, or aggressive driving can wear these components over time, degrading your truck's handling characteristics.
- Can a beginner install these replacement mounts? — Yes, installation is straightforward and requires only basic tools and mechanical knowledge. Most RC enthusiasts can complete the replacement in under 30 minutes by carefully removing fasteners, installing the new mounts, and ensuring everything is tightened securely. If you're new to RC maintenance, many local RC clubs offer technical support or installation assistance.
- How does this part affect my truck's performance? — These mounts are fundamental to your truck's steering accuracy and responsiveness. When in good condition, they ensure crisp, precise steering control. Worn or damaged mounts can introduce steering lag, unpredictable behaviour, and reduced cornering performance, making replacement worthwhile if you want to maintain competitive edge or consistent fun.

- Will these mounts fit my Carnage or Zorro? — These mounts are specifically designed for the Carnage NT and Zorro NT models. Earlier generation Carnage and Zorro trucks may use different mounting specifications, so verify your exact model before ordering to ensure compatibility.
