MTX5 Tapered Clutch Plate Upgrade - MUGEN AM-MTX5-T2714 by Arrowmax  [AM-MTX5-T2714]

MTX5 plate-style clutch option

This Arrowmax clutch set is an RC-scale replacement part made for the Mugen MTX5 chassis. The assembly employs a tapered clutch plate in place of a tapered flywheel to alter engagement timing, producing stronger initial punch and a bias toward higher top-end speed.

The component targets racers and tuners who tweak clutch engagement to match varying track surfaces and driving style. It modifies engagement geometry while leaving core engine and gearbox parts unchanged, so it integrates with standard MTX5 drivetrains.

Fitment requires routine disassembly of the engine to transmission connection and common hobby hand tools; final adjustments should be dialed in on the bench and confirmed on track to achieve the desired throttle response. Make small incremental changes and test between runs to avoid overly aggressive engagement.

Compatibility

Designed as a direct clutch-set option for the Mugen MTX5 chassis, intended for 1/8 scale buggy competition and practice use.

As a tuning item, this clutch set gives MTX5 drivers an alternative engagement profile to improve launch behavior and preserve higher top speed, with on-track validation recommended after installation.
