Include your preferred 4S or six LiPo battery and enjoy this beast truck smash your speed expectations — as much as 60+ miles per hour in maximum conditions with a 6S LiPo battery and the included optional speed pinion gear.
The ready-to-run plan now likewise includes a 3-channel Spektrum™ SLT3™ radio and Spektrum™ SR315 dual procedure receiver. Perfect for long hours of fatigue-free bashing, the transmitter's ergonomic design features a foam steering wheel for exact fingertip control and an improved hand grip and trigger feel. If you're a new chauffeur, you'll be able to set throttle limits at 50% or 75% up until you're prepared to use the complete speed potential. The SLT3™ works with Tactic® SLT™ receivers to run other RTR cars you may own, and includes a third channel to manage optional features such as lights and winches on models that have them. Since the SR315 receiver can use SLT™ and DSMR® procedures, you can easily update to a Spektrum™ DSMR® transmitter later — then, download the totally free Spektrum™ Dashboard™ app for your mobile device and make the most of the Smart telemetry abilities currently present in the Firma™ electronic devices.

A center body support, aluminum center brace and composite chassis side pods include more strength. All-metal diff outdrives and gearbox internals, plus durable steel driveshafts, offer a dependable, sturdy drivetrain that holds up to extreme, high-speed bashing.

Rated 3 stars Kraton 6s
By Scott S on September 25, 2023

Got me a Arrma Kraton 6s it’s my first Arrma I have a Traxxas Sledge Hoss E-Revo 2.0 and out of the box and it’s between a Sledge or Kraton 6s the Traxxas quality is easily 4 out of 5 and the Kraton 6s 2–1/2 3. Durability Traxxas Sledge takes it power goes to the Kraton hands down price is better value with the Arrma Kraton 6s Traxxas is very pricey but they both have weak servos the Kraton is a little better. If you get the Arrma Kraton get GPM A-arms and a servo mount. And the bottom chassis brace. I’m running a Spektrum 6s 6800mah 120c pro basher lipo but it’s a beast happy with it
