Key Features
- Genuine FTX Spare Part — This rollcage is manufactured by FTX and is the official replacement component for Outback Mini XP Unitrak models, ensuring perfect fitment and compatibility with your existing vehicle without modification or adaptation required.

- Structural Reinforcement — The rollcage provides protective reinforcement around the cabin area of your RC model, protecting electronics and the vehicle structure from impacts during off-road adventures, rock crawling, and challenging terrain navigation.
- Scale Detail Enhancement — Beyond functional protection, the rollcage adds authentic scale appearance to the Outback Mini XP Unitrak, contributing to the realistic rock crawler aesthetic that appeals to scale enthusiasts and competitive crawlers alike.
- Easy Installation — As a direct replacement spare part designed specifically for the Unitrak platform, installation is straightforward and requires no fabrication, drilling, or modification to the vehicle chassis or body.
- Modular Upgradability — Part of the comprehensive FTX Outback Mini XP Unitrak spare parts range, allowing you to customize and upgrade your crawler incrementally as you identify preferences for different cage designs and configurations.

Technical Performance
The FTX Outback Mini XP Unitrak Rollcage B is engineered as a precision plastic component manufactured to FTX's specifications for the Unitrak variant of the Outback Mini XP series. As a structural component rather than a powered element, performance is defined by durability, fitment accuracy, and protective capability. The rollcage material is selected to withstand typical RC crawler impacts and abrasions whilst remaining lightweight enough not to compromise the weight distribution or handling characteristics of the 1/18th scale vehicle. Installation integrates seamlessly with the existing Unitrak chassis platform, which features independent suspension, realistic articulation, and genuine rock crawling capability in a compact format ideal for tabletop courses, garden terrain, and indoor off-road RC tracks throughout the UK. When paired with the standard FTX Outback Mini XP Unitrak drivetrain, the added rollcage introduces negligible weight penalty whilst delivering substantial structural benefit. The component is compatible with all standard Outback Mini XP Unitrak body options, including the clear Lexan body shell and finished body variants available in Matt Green and Matt Sand colours, making it a versatile addition to any collector's configuration.

- What is the difference between Rollcage A and Rollcage B? — Both rollcages are genuine FTX components designed for the Unitrak platform.

- Is this a genuine FTX part or an aftermarket replacement? — This is a genuine manufacturer FTX spare part, part of the official Outback Mini XP Unitrak parts range. It is manufactured to FTX specifications and carries full compatibility assurance with your original vehicle.
- What happens if my original rollcage is damaged during rock crawling? — Replacement is simple and economical using this genuine FTX spare. Rather than rebuilding the entire vehicle, you simply remove the damaged cage, install the new Rollcage B, and resume operation. This modular approach is one of the key advantages of the Unitrak platform.
