Mugen MTX5 Clutch Upgrade Kit - MUGEN AM-MTX5-T2714 by Arrowmax  [AM-MTX5-T2714]

Plate-taper clutch option for MTX5

This Arrowmax clutch set serves as an RC replacement for the Mugen MTX5 platform. By using a tapered clutch plate rather than a tapered flywheel, the design changes engagement dynamics to deliver a stronger launch and enhanced high-speed performance.

Its intended audience is drivers who adjust clutch engagement to suit track grip and driving preference. The part alters how the clutch engages without requiring changes to the primary engine or transmission pieces, so it meshes with the standard MTX5 drivetrain layout.

Installation involves basic removal of the engine-transmission coupling and common hobby tools; set initial engagement on the bench, then verify and refine settings on-track. Trial runs with small adjustments will help avoid over-engagement and protect the driveline.

Fitment notes

Manufactured to fit the Mugen MTX5 chassis as a direct clutch-set replacement for 1/8 buggy applications, intended for performance tuning.

As a tuning component the clutch set offers MTX5 racers a different engagement curve focused on stronger starts and steady top speed, and should be validated through measured track testing after fitting.
