Overview
From its heavy-duty front bumper through the short wheelbase chassis to the wheelie bar in back, the NOTORIOUS™ 6S BLX 4WD is engineered to make you a stunt superstar. Its stiff roll cage and underbody will take all kinds of punishment and come back for more. The NOTORIOUS™ 6S BLX 4WD can do it all: long, tall wheelies…tight, fast donuts…standing and aerial backflips…high leaps into the air…and more.
For the power to perform that kind of stunt action, ARRMA® now equips the NOTORIOUS™ 6S BLX 4WD with a potent, 6S-capable brushless system featuring the Spektrum™ Firma™ 150A Smart ESC and Firma™ 2050Kv brushless motor. The combination lets you cut loose with incredible torque, acceleration and speed, while the heavy-duty aluminum and steel chassis and transmission components take it all in its stride. For improved steering, ARRMA® also includes a new, steel gear Spektrum™ S652 Digital Servo — which is 32% stronger and 5% faster than the previous version's ADS-15M servo. Thanks to waterproof electronics, bashing is a "go" even through mud and snow. Just add your favorite 4S or 6S LiPo battery.
The ready-to-run Stunt Truck now also includes a 3-channel Spektrum™ SLT3™ radio and Spektrum™ SR315 dual protocol receiver. Perfect for long hours of fatigue-free bashing, the transmitter's ergonomic design features a foam steering wheel for precise fingertip control and an improved hand grip and trigger feel. If you're a new driver, you'll be able to set throttle limits at 50% or 75% until you're ready to use the full speed potential. The SLT3™ is compatible with Tactic® SLT™ receivers to run other RTR vehicles you may own, and includes a third channel to control optional features such as lights and winches on models that have them.
Because the SR315 receiver can use SLT™ and DSMR® protocols, you can easily upgrade to a Spektrum™ DSMR® transmitter later — then, download the free Spektrum™ Dashboard™ app for your mobile device and take full advantage of the Smart telemetry capabilities already present in the Firma™ electronics. You'll be able to receive real-time updates of ESC temperature, receiver (BEC) voltage, drive pack voltage and motor RPM.
With adjustable 16mm oil-filled shocks on aluminum towers soaking up bumps, the NOTORIOUS™ 6S BLX 4WD Stunt Truck blasts over dirt, asphalt, and grass — over all terrain, in all conditions. Its tough stunt truck wheels come outfitted with multi-terrain dBoots® BACKFLIP™ tires that provide all the traction you'll need to flip, grip, wheelie and spin. A high downforce wing helps keep the vehicle grounded. Everything about the NOTORIOUS™ 6S BLX 4WD contributes to confident control and responsive handling at thrilling high speeds.
For the toughness needed to support extreme stunts, ARRMA® uses a strengthened anodized aluminum chassis as the foundation. A center body support and aluminum center brace plus composite chassis side pods add more durability. All-metal diff outdrives and gearbox internals plus durable steel driveshafts provide a reliable, heavy-duty drivetrain that holds up to extreme stunts and high-speed bashing. A "never loose" aluminum steering servo saver and "never pop" ball ends supply more precision, reliability and confidence.
ARRMA® keeps your maintenance downtime to the minimum by giving the NOTORIOUS™ 6S BLX 4WD an efficient, driver-friendly design. A sliding mount allows quick, hassle-free motor access. The center diff is easy to reach and can be removed by taking out just five bolts.
