The evolution of the Outback trail chassis hits new heights with the new Hi-Rock edition from FTX. As trail and crawler fans continue to crave both scale performance and scale looks, we have looked to address both with the Hi-Rock.
Featuring a new split transmission, the motor is now mounted directly above the front axle alongside the steering servo providing extra weight up front for better traction when climbing ascents. The steering angle has been increased to a 45° angle for further improved trail maneuverability. An adjustable drivetrain slipper can be set to protect the transmission and driveshafts in the event of a lock up, while internal axle and gearbox metal gears provide long term durability.
The split transmission layout provides a much lower centre section allowing for aftermarket interiors to be mounted for added scale realism. The moulded side chassis plates have aluminium plates on the exterior while the inner plates provide protection from the elements as well as mounting receiver and Hobbywing speed control. The moulded receiver box features additional plug in ports for LED lights and aftermarket winches.
The classic pick-up inspired bodyshell comes complete with moulded accessories such as front grill & LED light buckets, snorkel, mirrors, wipers, roll bar cage and spotlights (for optional LED’s). Front and rear bumpers feature mounted LED lights and tow hooks to top off that scale look.

How does the split transmission improve crawling performance?
The FTX FTX5587 1:10 trail rock crawler features a split transmission layout that positions the motor directly above the front axle. This configuration shifts weight forward, increasing traction during ascents and improving low-speed control. The lowered midsection of the chassis accommodates aftermarket interiors, enhancing scale realism without compromising drivetrain geometry. Combined with a transmission slipper clutch, the system protects against drivetrain stress during lockups, making the Hi-Rock ideal for technical crawling and trail exploration.
Why is the front-mounted motor and panhard bar setup important?
The FTX FTX5587 with front-mounted motor and LED bumpers places the motor and steering servo above the front axle, optimizing weight distribution for climbing scenarios. This setup is paired with a panhard bar steering system, which stabilizes lateral axle movement and maintains precise steering geometry under articulation. The result is improved handling on uneven terrain and enhanced control during tight maneuvers. LED-equipped bumpers add visibility and scale realism, making the Hi-Rock both functional and visually compelling.
How do the drivetrain and suspension components support durability?
The FTX Outback Hi-Rock with waterproof ESC and metal gears includes internal metal gears in both the axles and transmission, ensuring long-term reliability under load. The 6mm steel multi-link suspension and telescopic universal driveshafts provide robust articulation and consistent power delivery. Steel CVA front universal driveshafts enhance steering efficiency, while oil-filled shock absorbers smooth out trail impacts. These components work together to deliver a crawler that’s built for endurance and capable of handling demanding terrain.
What makes the Hi-Rock visually authentic and upgrade-ready?
The FTX crawler with scale body accessories and panhard bar features a classic pickup-style shell with moulded details including snorkel, mirrors, wipers, roll bar cage, and LED-ready spotlights. Aluminium side footplates reinforce the chassis and add visual depth, while the receiver box includes external ports for optional accessories like winches or sound modules. The scale wheels and high-grip tyres complete the look, making the Hi-Rock a standout on the trail and a flexible platform for customization.
How does the Hi-Rock handle trail conditions and weather?
The affordable FTX Outback Hi-Rock with aluminium footplates and scale tyres is equipped with waterproof electronics, including a 40A Hobbywing ESC and 15kg metal geared steering servo. These components allow the crawler to operate confidently in wet, muddy, or dusty environments. The high-clearance locked axles and 80mm ground clearance enable the Hi-Rock to traverse rocks, roots, and uneven terrain with ease. With its rugged build and weather-ready design, the Hi-Rock is prepared for year-round trail adventures.
For enthusiasts seeking a crawler that combines scale realism, technical capability, and upgrade potential, the FTX FTX5587 Outback Hi-Rock crawler RTR delivers.
