Kyosho SX048 Roll Cage A Scorpion XXL

This is roll cage section A for the Kyosho Scorpion XXL.

The Scorpion XXL carries an exposed tube roll cage rather than a conventional enclosed body, and that cage is doing real structural work. It protects the chassis, the electronics and the engine or motor when the car rolls, and on a 1/7 scale buggy a rollover carries a lot of energy. Without the cage taking that impact, the load goes straight into components that cost considerably more to replace.

Because it is the first thing to hit the ground, the cage is also genuinely consumable. Sections crack, mounting tabs tear, and a cage that has been damaged and kept in service stops spreading load properly, which means the next roll does more harm than it should.

Kyosho supplies the cage in sections rather than as one piece, which means you replace only the part that broke instead of the entire assembly. This is section A. The rear section is a separate part number, so confirm which piece you need before ordering.
