Technical Performance
The FTX Crossbow Main Chassis is engineered to support the full performance envelope of the Crossbow 1/10 Brushless Truggy Truck. This is the core structural component that interfaces with all major systems on your RC vehicle, including the brushless motor assembly, electronic speed controller, suspension geometry, steering mechanism and battery installation. The main chassis must be robust enough to handle the demands of brushless-powered truggy racing, where high acceleration, aggressive cornering and rough terrain interaction place significant loads on the structural framework. When replacing or upgrading your Crossbow chassis, you're investing in the foundation that allows your brushless drivetrain to deliver maximum performance reliably. The precision manufacturing ensures that suspension geometry is maintained correctly, allowing your shocks and anti-roll bars to function as designed, and that all component mounting points remain perfectly aligned for optimal handling and durability.

We want to make sure your delivery goes smoothly, so here are some important details about our service:
- For orders above £120, we offer delivery to most mainland UK addresses. For orders under £120, we can still deliver to Northern Ireland and the outlying isles, as long as the item can be sent by Royal Mail, weighs less than 30kg, and fits within 61cm × 46cm × 46cm. Some highland and remote areas may carry an extra delivery charge as couriers often apply surcharges in these locations. If you live in one of these areas, feel free to contact us before ordering so we can confirm the delivery options and costs for you.
- Most of our products include delivery in the price. If your order is under £90, a small delivery fee will apply but do not worry this will always be clearly shown at checkout before you complete your purchase.
- Depending on what you choose at checkout, your order will usually be delivered either the next working day or within 2 working days. For next day delivery please place your order before 2:00pm. Orders are dispatched Monday to Friday only. Some items may take a little longer and if that is the case we will always show the expected delivery time on the product page.
- If your order includes items with different dispatch times we will normally wait and send everything together once all items are in stock. If one of the items is going to take a while we will give you the choice either wait for everything to arrive or let us send the available items now and deliver the rest later. It is up to you.
- We use trusted delivery partners to make sure your order gets to you safely and on time. We use DPD for next working day deliveries and Royal Mail for the 2 day option.
- As soon as your order is on its way we will send you a tracking number by email. If you provide your mobile number at checkout we will also send delivery updates straight to your phone so you can keep an eye on progress.
