Good job by arrma offering a model line for beginners. And this line is many times more durable than any traxxas for the same price.

[@WowoodogPlays]

no, but with this you can actually convert it to 4wd, that is a step up from traxxas

[@SteveSoper1979]

I love 2WD rigs. Lighter weight, less stress on the electronics, less stuff to break. So what's interesting is that because this is clearly modeled after their 4wd rig, the motor is a mid mount vs on the far back like you typically see in 2WD RCs. So the weight balance should be better. This is great. Well done Arrma. Would have preferred this be brushless but I can throw that in myself easy enough.

[@kode4420]

They're set up to be upgraded to 4 wheel drive and brushless easily after driving skills improve. It states that on the horizon website. I remember the days of the 2wd rear motor buggys. :)

[@SnarkyRC]

Pretty sweet. Kinda reminds me of the 2wd 1/10 series arrma made years ago. The Fury was one of my favourite 2wd short course trucks.

[@Crummieboi56]

If it was just $20 cheaper, yall would have me. (Because then i could buy the batteries aswell) but i understand the concept, and this was actually a space they needed to fill for a while.

[@DaPandas_Rcs]

Weve all been taking the center shaft out the 4x4s for years tho, nd if its similar in price wont everyone go for the 4x4 to have 2 cars in one, i like what their trying like how they had the fury, when i worked at a hobby shop i always recommended the 4x4 senton over a slash just because of the center drive shaft being able to just come out and make a 2wd truck and be able to run 4x4 whenever

[@MRMechanicRC]

Alright, the concept behind this line is cool, but the problem is they are way to expensive. I’d just pay the extra 40 bucks and take out the center driveshaft from the 4X4 if I wanted a 2WD rig. Then I’d have a better esc and better radio too as well as a battery…

[@noahmorris7940]

Isn't the normal mega 550 an 85A spektrum esc? I think this would be an upgrade. Way over the top for the little brushed 12t motor honestly.

[@nathanz602]

@Easy's Rc Yeah but for a little more you can get a much better rc.

So when are you guys gonna do Version 2.0 of the EXB trucks? They really need it, get rid of the LSD systems and just improve the drivetrain in general, everyone is sick of damaged diffs, outdrives, and bent driveshafts.

I have a question. Could you guys possibly bring back the Arrma Nero 6s?

[@michaelinzitari]

Not possible while traxxas still has a patent on the inboard suspension design. That’s why you also will not see the Fazon return ever again

[@Warhorse8192]

@@michaelinzitari Traxxas is really screwing up armma now

[@michaelinzitari]

@@Warhorse8192 better for Traxxas if the entire RC industry stops cloning them (like ECX) but better for the customer if we have cheaper options. Traxxas just protecting themselves. Can’t blame them for that

Where is our 1/5th scale on road or 1/5 Senton? 😭 come on Arrma we love you but give us what we want.

[@stuart3712]

They have 1/7th onroads and a 1/7th truck like the senton, would not make sense to make any of them as a 1/5th... They need to make a 1/5th typhon if anything.

[@da66er74]

Dawg just take your business elsewhere tbh. Infraction/felony are undoubtedly the rulers of road cars but it wouldn’t make much sense to just scale them up. Less practical, costs more, massively heavy, requires more power, etc etc. just get that big 1/5 scale short course gas truck that I forget the name of.
