New Arrma Vorteks 3s

[Rcproponent]

I guess I was looking at the way the color stripes are painted on the body as well as how the name is written in that "blockish" font going horizontally across the door.

True that, I think my brain just saw colors and instantly connected .. haha

I am looking forward to seeing it, looks like it would be pretty cool.

Oh a Rustler 4x4 killer for a little bit less. Because this thing is going to be over $320 look at the remote it comes with, did I also see a metal spur?

Looks like a plastic spur to me.

Yeah, DX3 radio and a Spektrum 6200A AVC Receiver ...

First 3S with 60+ MPH out of the box seems interesting. I guess that Firma esc or the motor will have a little more grunt? Or higher tooth pinion maybe?

The motor looks like the same 3660 3200kV in the 3S line so maybe the bigger tires are giving it the speed boost.

Reminds me of a Maxx with a wing.

From a quick Google search, it looks like they're resurrecting the name/model, as it appears there was a line of Vorteks stadium trucks a few years ago.

I am guessing this is a competitor to the HOSS. Traxxas who? Looks cool IMO. I am with @Rcproponent, the paint scheme could be better. there are probably 1 or 2 more colors.

The old Vortex was $379, so I suspect this new one is going to probably be around $350.

Rustler 4x4 vxl, not hoss. If this thing has good drive shafts that don't break it is already better than the Rustler. It probably will go 60 mph out of the box too unlike the Rustler.

Would almost be fun if they brought out a good higher grade 2wd .. just for $hits

That seems reasonable, and I would tend to agree. Though it's 3S, they're claiming a bit more speed. I can see it sitting in between the 3S and 4S line in terms of price. Though if it does come in at the same price as the 3S line, that would be great!

Guessing about 339.99

I doubt they would price it higher than a Traxxas. That is also more than a 4s arrma.

Probably would not make a 2wd considering the Rustler 4x4 vxl outsells the normal 2wd Rustler by a ton.

Wing looks like the first thing to break in crash unless its made super strong

I think with how lightweight this rig will be it’ll be ok , but only time will tell. If people end up liking this thing it might be my first 3s rig

Tru. I have never had a problem with an Arrma drivetrain. Even on a 3s car running 6s. Thats crazy!
