Technical Performance
The FTX Carnage 2.0 Blue Printed Bodyshell is engineered using high-quality polycarbonate that has been proven in thousands of RC trucks across the UK and worldwide. The 290mm wheelbase specification ensures compatibility with the Carnage 2.0 brushed and brushless RTR models, including the FTX5537B (Carnage 2.0 1/10 Brushed Truck 4WD RTR in blue), FTX5537R (Carnage 2.0 1/10 Brushed Truck 4WD RTR in red), and FTX5539 (Carnage 2.0 Brushless RTR Monster Truck). The pre-painted finish uses automotive-grade quality paint that resists fading and minor abrasions from typical RC use. The polycarbonate material provides excellent durability against impacts whilst remaining flexible enough to absorb energy from crashes without cracking. Many users report that with proper care and maintenance using standard RC bodyshell protection methods such as drywall tape and shoe goo, this bodyshell delivers exceptional longevity and protection for your chassis investment.

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.
