Key Features
- OEM Genuine Part — This is an official FTX factory component manufactured to exact specifications, ensuring perfect compatibility with your FTX Tracker chassis and motor bay assembly without any modification or adjustment required.
- Protective Design — The upper motor cover shields your motor and associated electrical components from dust, dirt, moisture and debris that can accumulate during outdoor RC driving sessions, helping to maintain consistent performance and extend component lifespan.

- Durable Construction — Built from quality materials selected by FTX to withstand the rigours of RC car operation, providing reliable protection across multiple driving seasons with proper care.

Technical Performance
The FTX Tracker Upper Motor Cover is engineered as a direct replacement component for the FTX Tracker platform, one of the most popular compact electric RC cars available to hobbyists in the United Kingdom. This component forms part of the upper chassis assembly and motor bay housing, where it protects the brushless or brushed motor installation from environmental contaminants. The cover is manufactured to tolerances that ensure seamless integration with the Tracker's existing mechanical architecture. As with all FTX genuine parts, quality control standards are applied throughout production to ensure consistency and reliability. The protective function of this component becomes increasingly important in dusty conditions, when driving near water features, or during extended outdoor sessions where airborne particles can degrade motor performance over time. Proper maintenance of your RC car's protective covers is a simple but effective way to ensure your motor system and speed controller investment continues to deliver peak performance throughout the year.
