Key Features
- Pre-Printed Finish — The bodyshell arrives with factory-applied yellow colour and graphics, eliminating the need for custom painting and finishing work. This saves you significant time and ensures a professional, consistent result straight from the box, which is particularly valuable if you lack spray painting equipment or experience.
- 1/10th Scale Rock Crawler Design — Engineered specifically for rock crawler applications, this dropcab body features realistic proportions and cab styling that suits trail-based RC rock crawling. The design provides adequate clearance for suspension articulation and wheel movement during extreme rock crawling manoeuvres.
- 313mm Wheelbase Compatibility — Designed to fit the FTX Fury X platform with its standard 313mm (12.3 inch) wheelbase, ensuring perfect alignment with chassis mounting points and suspension geometry for optimal performance and appearance.
- Dropcab Configuration — The dropcab design features a lowered cabin roof line, which provides a more aggressive, purposeful stance and improves weight distribution characteristics compared to standard cab designs, benefiting both aesthetics and handling on difficult terrain.
- Decal Sheet Included — The bodyshell comes with pre-applied decals and graphics as standard, adding to the professional appearance and eliminating the need for additional decal application work during assembly.
- Premium Print Quality — FTX's printed bodyshell process ensures vibrant, durable colour that resists fading and handles the rough and tumble of regular rock crawling without peeling or chipping under normal use conditions.
- Easy Installation — Designed for straightforward fitment to the FTX Fury X chassis, making it accessible for builders at all skill levels, from complete beginners to experienced RC enthusiasts building custom crawlers.
Technical Performance
The FTX FURY X PRINTED DROPCAB BODY represents high-quality bodyshell engineering optimised for 1/10th scale rock crawler applications. The printed construction method provides superior durability compared to bare plastic, with factory-applied colour and graphics that maintain their appearance through extended use on rocky terrain and in varied weather conditions. The body material is specifically engineered for the demands of rock crawling, offering sufficient structural rigidity to protect mounted electronics whilst remaining flexible enough to handle minor impacts without cracking. The dropcab design improves the vehicle's centre of gravity and weight distribution, which directly benefits traction and stability when navigating steep inclines and obstacle courses. With a wheelbase of 313mm (12.3 inches), this body provides the correct proportions for the FTX Fury X platform, ensuring that all suspension geometry, ground clearance, and approach/departure angles remain optimised for genuine rock crawling performance. The pre-painted finish eliminates variables introduced by hand painting, ensuring consistent colour matching across multiple bodies if you're building a fleet or want backup bodyshells for different events. The included decal sheet adds authentic detailing without requiring specialist application skills, making this a complete solution straight from the box.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the FTX FURY X PRINTED DROPCAB BODY suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. This bodyshell is designed for straightforward fitment to the FTX Fury X chassis, making it accessible for builders at all experience levels. The pre-printed finish and included decal sheet mean you get a professional appearance without needing painting equipment or decal application expertise. If you're new to RC rock crawlers and want to avoid the complexity of custom painting, this is an ideal choice.
- Will this body fit my FTX Fury X chassis? — This dropcab body is specifically engineered for the FTX Fury X platform with its 313mm wheelbase, so fitment is perfect when paired with the correct chassis. The mounting points, suspension clearances, and overall proportions are all optimised for seamless integration with the Fury X build.
- What is the difference between this printed body and a standard plastic shell? — This body features factory-applied yellow colour and graphics that are integral to the plastic, providing superior durability and a professional finish compared to bare plastic shells that require custom painting. The pre-painted approach saves time and eliminates the need for spray painting equipment, masking, and finishing techniques.
- Can I paint over this printed finish? — Whilst the body arrives factory-painted, you can repaint it if desired. The printed surface provides good adhesion for primer and additional paint coatings, allowing you to customise the colour scheme to your preference.
- What chassis and components do I need to complete a build with this body? — This is a bodyshell only and requires an FTX Fury X chassis, suspension components, motor, ESC, battery, radio system, and servos to create a complete rock crawler. It's designed as a replacement or upgrade part for existing FTX Fury X builds rather than a complete kit.
- Is this body suitable for off-road use? — Yes, this rock crawler body is specifically engineered for rough terrain, rocky trails, and serious off-road rock crawling. The durable printed finish handles impacts, abrasion, and mud without degrading, making it ideal for genuine trail-based use rather than on-road driving.
- How durable is the printed finish? — FTX's printed bodyshell process creates colour that's integral to the plastic structure, providing excellent durability through regular rock crawling, impacts, and exposure to dirt and mud. The finish resists fading and maintains its vibrant appearance through extended use.
