Looking to do some crazy stunts and drive up to unbelievable speeds, then the ARRMA Kraton V5 BLX is for you! 

ARRMA® engineers have outfitted the KRATON™ 6S BLX 4WD with a Brushless power system that now features the Spektrum™ Firma™ 150A Smart ESC and Firma™ 2050Kv Brushless motor. The combination delivers incredible torque, acceleration and speed. Heavy-duty Aluminium 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. Add your favorite 4S or 6S LiPo battery and watch this monster truck smash your speed expectations – up to 60+ MPH in optimum conditions with a 6S LiPo battery and the included optional speed pinion gear.

  • Spektrum™ Firma™ 4074 2050Kv Brushless Motor

The ready-to-run ARRMA® KRATON™ 6S BLX 4WD Speed Monster Truck now comes equipped for even greater all-terrain, 1/8 scale bashing thrills — with a Spektrum™ SLT3™ 3-channel radio, SLT™/DSMR® dual protocol receiver, Smart ESC, stronger servo and more.  Equipped with a Spektrum Firma 4074 2050KV brushless motor that can handle not one, but two 11.1v LiPo batteries which combined will deliver 22.2 volts of sheer power. With great power comes great drive-line components and that's exactly what ARRMA has installed, 6 high strength steel drive shafts!

With adjustable oil-filled shocks soaking up the bumps, the KRATON™ 6S BLX 4WD Speed Monster Truck blasts over dirt, asphalt and grass — all terrain and all conditions. The shocks are mounted on black-anodized aluminium towers. Multi-split-spoke wheels come outfitted with super-aggressive, multi-surface dBoots® COPPERHEAD 2™ tires. A high downforce wing helps keep the vehicle grounded. Everything in the design contributes to confident control and responsive handling at high speeds.

For the durability needed to support intense brushless performance, ARRMA® uses a strengthened anodized aluminium chassis as the foundation for the KRATON™ 6S BLX 4WD. A centre body support, aluminium centre brace and composite chassis side pods add more strength. All-metal diff outdrives and gearbox internals, plus durable steel driveshafts, provide a reliable, heavy-duty drivetrain that holds up to extreme, high-speed bashing. A “never loose” aluminium steering servo saver and “never pop” ball ends supply more precision, reliability and confidence.
