Stiff carbon centre mount for GTXE chassis

This RC carbon center mounting plate is made to increase the center stiffness of GTXE flat chassis designs. Fitting the plate reduces unwanted chassis twist and creates a more solid link between the chassis top and bottom panels.

When running on medium to high-traction surfaces the added longitudinal rigidity delivers crisper steering input and steadier cornering behaviour. The component is a handling tuner rather than a geometry change; it is not intended to alter ride height or suspension pick-up points.

Fitting is aimed at hobbyists comfortable with kit assembly, slotting into the center mounting area of compatible GTXE flat chassis. It works as a structural upgrade that complements suspension and shock adjustments without needing changes to the drivetrain or electronics.

Specifications

  • Item: GTXE Carbon Center Mounting Plate - Stiff - Flat Chassis

Choose this stiff center plate to reduce flex and gain a more predictable steering feel on firm-grip tracks; pair it with cautious suspension tweaks to preserve overall balance and component longevity.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

How does the plate hold up under repeated use?

Carbon fibre is durable for structural upgrades, but inspect for hairline cracks after heavy impacts. Regular checks of mounting screws and surrounding chassis panels will extend service life.

Will it alter suspension geometry over time?

No. The plate stiffens the center section without changing suspension pick points or ride height, so geometry remains unchanged unless other parts are modified.

Does it increase risk of cracking during crashes?

Any stiffening part can concentrate forces. While well-made carbon is strong, severe impacts can crack or delaminate the plate; inspect and replace if any damage appears.

Is the plate affected by heat from long runs?

Carbon fiber is stable with temperature changes typical in RC use. Heat from electronics will not normally affect the plate, but avoid leaving the car in direct sunlight for extended periods.

How often should I inspect or replace it?

Inspect after any significant impact and during routine maintenance. Replace if you find cracks, delamination, or stripped fastener holes to maintain safe performance.

What cleaning and care is recommended?

Clean the plate with a soft brush or damp cloth and mild detergent if needed. Avoid solvents that can attack resin and never use abrasive cleaners that might damage the finish.
