Overview
Transform your FTX Fury 1/10 crawler into an all-terrain machine capable of conquering snow, sand and challenging weather conditions with the FTX FURY 1/10 CRAWLER REAR SNOW/SAND TRACKS. Whether you're an experienced RC enthusiast looking to expand your FTX Fury's capabilities or a dedicated RC car UK hobbyist seeking to maximise year-round enjoyment, these specialist caterpillar tracks offer a game-changing upgrade that opens up entirely new driving environments. Don't let seasonal weather or difficult terrain stand between you and your passion for RC crawling — these tracks are engineered to bolt directly onto your existing FTX Fury, transforming its performance across surfaces that would challenge traditional tyres.
The FTX Fury snow and sand tracks represent a clever engineering solution to a common RC problem: standard tyres struggle on loose, unstable surfaces where weight distribution and grip are paramount. By replacing the conventional wheel and tyre setup with professional-grade caterpillar tracks, you gain the ability to tackle snow-covered fields, sandy beaches, muddy terrain and other challenging environments that would otherwise be off-limits. This is the perfect upgrade for UK RC enthusiasts who want to make the most of their hobby throughout the year, regardless of seasonal challenges.
Built with the same attention to quality and compatibility that FTX is known for throughout the RC community, these rear tracks feature soft, pliable rubber construction with a distinctive block pattern that maximises grip and forward momentum. Installation is straightforward, requiring only basic tools and minimal technical knowledge, making this an accessible upgrade even for those new to RC modification and tuning.
Key Features
- 45mm Wide Rubber Tracks — The tracks measure 45mm in width, providing a substantial contact patch that distributes the FTX Fury's weight across a much larger surface area than conventional tyres, enabling superior traction and stability on soft, loose or unstable terrain such as snow and sand.
- Soft, Pliable Block Pattern Rubber — The track material is engineered to remain flexible even in cold conditions, with a distinctive block tread pattern that grips loose surfaces effectively, ensuring consistent performance whether you're driving through winter snow or across sandy dunes.
- 10 x 20mm Supported Rollers — Each track assembly incorporates ten precision rollers measuring 20mm in diameter, which guide the track smoothly around the drive mechanism and support rollers, reducing friction and enabling smooth, efficient motion across varied terrain.
- Bearing Supported Centre Drive Cog — The central drive mechanism features bearing support, which reduces friction at the critical drive point, enabling more efficient power delivery from your FTX Fury's drivetrain to the tracks, translating to improved performance and reduced strain on your vehicle's transmission.
- 12mm Hex Fit — The tracks are compatible with the FTX Fury's 12mm hex wheel hubs, ensuring a secure, factory-style connection that requires no modification to your vehicle and allows for quick installation and removal when you want to switch between wheel and track configurations.
- Moulded Centre Wheel Caps — Each track assembly includes moulded wheel caps that screw to the side plates, providing a polished, finished appearance whilst also protecting the internal roller mechanisms from dirt and debris ingress.
- Direct Bolt-On Installation — Designed to fit directly onto the FTX Fury crawler without modification, these tracks transform your vehicle's capabilities whilst maintaining full compatibility with your existing chassis and drivetrain, making installation and removal straightforward.
Technical Performance
The FTX Fury snow and sand tracks represent a fundamental shift in how your 1/10 scale crawler interacts with challenging terrain. Rather than relying on the comparatively small contact patch of a traditional tyre, these caterpillar tracks spread your vehicle's mass across a significantly larger surface area, dramatically improving weight distribution and dramatically reducing ground pressure on delicate or unstable surfaces. This engineering principle is used extensively in real-world applications, from agricultural vehicles to military equipment, and FTX has successfully translated this proven technology to the RC scale.
The bearing-supported centre drive cog is the engineering heart of these tracks, enabling smooth, efficient power transmission from your FTX Fury's motor and transmission to the track system. The ten 20mm supported rollers work in concert with this central drive mechanism, creating a low-friction pathway for the flexible rubber track material. This combination of components means that power loss through the track assembly is minimised, allowing your vehicle's existing drivetrain to deliver maximum performance even when operating across challenging surfaces where conventional tyres would slip and lose traction.
The block pattern rubber used in track construction is specifically formulated to maintain pliability in cold weather conditions, ensuring consistent grip whether you're driving in winter snow or across sand. This is a critical engineering consideration for UK RC enthusiasts, where winter temperatures can significantly affect rubber compound properties. The 45mm width of the tracks provides ample surface contact for snow and sand driving, distributing your Fury's weight effectively to prevent sinking into soft surfaces whilst maintaining the manoeuvrability and responsiveness you expect from a quality RC crawler.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these snow and sand tracks fit my FTX Fury without modification? — Yes, these tracks are engineered to bolt directly onto your FTX Fury's existing 12mm hex hubs without any vehicle modification. Installation is straightforward and requires only basic tools, making this an accessible upgrade for RC enthusiasts of all experience levels.
- Can I use these tracks in winter snow and cold weather conditions? — Absolutely. The soft, pliable rubber compound used in these tracks is specifically designed to maintain flexibility even in cold weather, ensuring consistent grip and performance throughout winter months when standard tyres would become hard and lose traction.
- Are these tracks suitable for sandy terrain and beach driving? — Yes, the 45mm width and block pattern tread are optimised for sandy surfaces. By distributing weight across a larger contact patch, the tracks prevent your FTX Fury from sinking into sand, enabling smooth progression across beaches and sandy dunes where conventional tyres would struggle.
- Can I switch between tracks and wheels easily? — Yes, the 12mm hex fit means you can quickly swap between the snow/sand tracks and standard wheels depending on terrain and conditions. The tracks remove and install in minutes without any modification to your vehicle.
- What makes caterpillar tracks better than wide tyres for snow and sand? — Caterpillar tracks distribute weight across a much larger contact patch than even the widest tyres, dramatically reducing ground pressure. This is the same principle used in real-world vehicles operating in extreme conditions. Tracks also provide better traction and stability on loose, unstable surfaces where tyres would slip and lose grip.
- Do I need to modify my FTX Fury's suspension or drivetrain? — No, these tracks are fully compatible with your standard FTX Fury setup. The bearing-supported centre drive cog ensures efficient power transmission to the tracks without placing additional strain on your vehicle's transmission or drivetrain.
- Will these tracks improve my climbing ability on rough terrain? — The superior traction and weight distribution provided by caterpillar tracks significantly improve climbing ability and obstacle navigation, particularly on loose, unstable or slippery surfaces where conventional tyres lose grip.
