Description
Optional High Speed Gear

Using the optional high speed gear will void the warranty. Please contact us for more details.

The ready-to-run ARRMA® KRATON™ 6S BLX 4WD Speed Monster Truck now comes equipped for even greater all-terrain, 1/8 scale bashing thrills — with a Spektrum™ SLT3™ 3-channel radio, SLT™/DSMR® dual protocol receiver, Smart ESC, stronger servo and more.

Equipped with a Spektrum Firma 4074 2050Kv brushless motor that can handle two 11.1v LiPo batteries which combined will deliver 22.2 volts of raw power, with 6 steel drive shafts.

The Spektrum™ S652 Digital Servo is 32% stronger and 5% faster than the previous version's ADS-15M servo. Add a 4S or 6S LiPo battery and this truck can reach 60+ MPH in optimum conditions with a 6S LiPo and the included optional speed pinion gear.

Multi-split-spoke wheels with dBoots® COPPERHEAD 2™ tyres and a high downforce wing contribute to confident control and responsive handling at high speeds. A sliding motor mount and 4-bolt centre diff removal keep maintenance simple.
