Let's unbox and find out the TRUTH about the brand new Arrma 1/8 INFRACTION 4X4 MEGA Resto-Mod Truck RTR and see how fast it goes! We'll do a speed run on the included NiMH battery and a 2S Lipo. The 4WD street basher is the newest 1/8th scale RC from Arrma, but does it's brushed motor suck? re you better off with the Vendetta? I need your help deciding how to upgrade it. Should i put a brushless system in it? Should I replace the electronics? Should I change the looks? Can we make it go faster than a regular Infraction?

I ordered mine as soon as Amain let me know they were available. I’m a simple man, I’ve driven the same near-stock 2wd Slash for about five years now and a handful of brushless smaller scale trucks from Banggood and such. The Misdemeanor is, for me, the perfect mix of style and performance. I don’t have access to big places to let a faster car rip and I don’t have smooth enough asphalt near me to bust out something like a Tamiya TT02 or a 4Tec.

I'm just blown away this is over 300 dollars and it's brushed. It looks so cheap at a glance. It makes more sense to modify an existing brushless 3s arrma chassis to run on the road, since this new "infraction mini" is a 3s brushless arrma with a brushed system in it for the same price.

You might as well have bought the real full size infraction then. This infraction mini is 320 bucks. 340 or so with tax. Then you spend another $150 or so on a 3s/4s brushless system. That's around 500 bucks... just save up a little more and buy the real thing at that point. Or buy a used 3s brushless arrma, any one of them, put slick tires on it, lower the stance, and get an aftermarket body similar to the infraction. Then you have the same thing as this new car for half the price.

The Misdemeanor is the same chassis as the Vendetta, so if you're buying it to upgrade to a more powerful setup you might as well just buy a Vendetta that comes with a more powerful setup. Also I'm assuming the 30+ MPH on the box is if you change the gearing. Did they include a higher gearing? I know the Traxxas cars include a higher gearing setup for you to use for speed runs.

This trucks 200 bucks right now, incredible deal! I actually prefer the NiMH battery, more speed than a 2s lipo, bout the same punch. Its actually a good battery. The speed controller will handle 3s if you run a 17t 540 motor. its actually a rebranded hobbywing 60a ESC and specs for that show 3s capable on 18t 540/550 motors. A good 17t is close enough. Drop the pinion a tooth or 2 and she flies, no brushless needed!(this test was done on a granite 550 tho, stock motor cant take the 3s for long)

I grabbed one. Didn’t even run the brushed system, immediately swapped it for a castle brushless. A couple things, this thing sits LOW. If you plan on running off-road at all you will have to trim the body. I used some aftermarket shocks, and slightly larger tires to get the ground clearance I needed. With the copperhead 10 on 4s this thing is literally a danger to anyone who is nearby. Doing that first speed run I got the same rush of adrenaline I get when I’m doing 6th gear freeway pulls on my street bike

They’re 70mm. I just did the math, and i think it’s going to cost more to convert a sention than just buy an infraction. The only thing that will swap over (other than electronics) is the chassis. Arms, links, shock towers, driveshafts, body mounts, wheels/ tires, literally everything. Sounds like a fun project, but a big investment. Let me know how that turns out.

Just picked one up for $199 black Friday sale, canandian too, cant imagine how cheap they were in the US? But the acceleration is painfully slow, I for sure woulda thought with the upgraded 9Turn 570 motor over the granites 12t 550(which I also have) it woulda had way more Jam. ESPECIALLY with the smaller light tires and only 1 tooth bigger over the granites pinion. Really disappointed arrma!! Like u can't even punch it and enter a drift, u gotta full speed, brake and crank it to get one lil drift. Honestly I think the traxxas titan 12T is much faster. I even did a staged voltage water break in on the motor, how much worse is it without a break in? I'm going to do a speed and acceleration to 20mph test against the granites 12t 550 when it arrives new from horizon (because the stock motor lasted 3 battery packs in the new granite) the granite felt like it had more punch. I ordered some 9.6v 8cell NiMH batteries and I will test them, then drop in a yeah racing 13t 540 motor and compare. Trying to find the best combo to run these brushed cars on. I tried 3s lipo but the motor cant take more than 2 passes. So 9.6v NiMH should be a happy medium. we'll see, I'll post up a video. Look for "arrma megas all brushed motors and batt options tested" soon!

My 2 cents, I think Arrma should have made 2 versions of this, Brushless and brushed, I personally would keep it stock, Maybe find a better brushed motor and upgrade the pinion?

I was interested in this specifically because it was brushed. I enjoy modifying and upgrading. I'm not in this hobby because I'm good at saving money, although I appreciate the options out there for people that have a different approach.
