Technical Performance
The FTX Outlaw/Kanyon Battery Case is a purpose-engineered storage accessory manufactured by FTX, a recognised leader in the RC vehicle market. As a dedicated battery case rather than a vehicle component, its primary performance metric is the quality of protection it provides to your LiPo batteries. The case is designed with enough capacity to store batteries used in 1/10 scale brushless and brushed RC vehicles, which typically use 2S or 3S LiPo packs. The design incorporates features that prevent battery movement during transport and storage, which is critical for maintaining battery health and safety. Battery storage is particularly important because LiPo batteries are sensitive to physical damage, temperature fluctuations, and exposure to elements that can degrade performance or create safety hazards. By utilising this dedicated case, you're investing in the longevity of your batteries and the overall reliability of your electric RC cars. The case is engineered to complement the FTX Outlaw Ultra-4 Buggy, Kanyon 4x4 Trail Crawler, Khaos Truggy, and Zorro Trophy Truck platforms, which are popular 1/10 scale electric RC vehicles in the UK market.

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.

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.
