Arrma Infraction 6S BLX RTR Street Bash Truck

Arrma have introduced their mean looking Infraction 6S BLX Street Bash ready-to-run truck. The 1/7th scale vehicle is based on a 3mm anodised aluminium chassis with a red-colour centre brace for stiffness and cool looks. To aid high-speed stability a rear diffusor increases downforce and grip while a full-width front splitter balanced downforce distribution. A lightweight foam bumper adds protection and support to the front of the body. The suspension features a pivot ball design up front for increased adjustability while red anodised big bore alloy shock absorbers are keeping the belted slick tyres on the ground. The drivetrain utilises a 3-diff setup for traction in all track conditions and the electronics compartment houses the 6S LiPo-compatible BLX185 150A speed controller, the Spektrum SRS6000 Active Vehicle Control receiver and a powerful 15kg-cm torque steering servo. A sensorless 2050kV brushless motor propels the truck to top speeds of over 120km/h. The vehicle is decked out by a retro truck body shell with a factory-finished matte bronze camouflage trim and street truck decals. An included, unable wing lets the driver customise the downforce if conditions call for it.

RPM Typhon 4×4 3S BLX rear arms

Coming from RPM and made for the Arrma Typhon 4×4 3S BLX is a set of replacement rear A-arms. RPM’s versions are more adjustable, more durable and 5g lighter than stock. The designers added a second shock mount to the outside of the original stock shock mount, adding adjustability and improving trackability. The outer shock mount lowers the ride height, increasing stability on all surface types. A lower ride height also means faster corner speeds. Moulded from engineering grade nylons, the arms are a lot more durable than the standard parts with the redesigned shape of the A-arms helping improve survivability during severe bashing. The rear arms come in sets of two and they are a direct fit.
