Hey Rich nice review, and your Green looks Yellow on camera, could be a yellow/green color that Arrma used for their logo not sure but this thing is a beast for the price point.
ive come down to this truck and the losi xxx sct, having trouble with choosing, the only thing i am scared about is the lipo in the losi(comes with it rtr(also because im a newbie and i read about lipo safety makes me scared)) arrma gets a better run time with the nimh and is faster by 1mph otb.. but the arrma is more expensive ($20 more) RCNetwork, can you help me decide?
+Justin Trinh Lipo's need to be respected and cared for.....read all the warning and you'll be good. Don't get a $20 Lipo charger...Spend about$100 and get the Hitec X1 Touch. Great charger and you'll appreciate it in the long run. As for which vehicle....they're both great. The Arrma is really durable and tough though
+The RCNetwork All I have to say is THANKS. You really helped me choose an rc, I got it for $315 new including a 5000mah venom battery. I went for the dynamite prophet duo charger, hopefully nothing fails on me... I've heard Arrma is really nice with customer service, so, I chose this... in the meantime, I can think of future upgrades.
This rc car is litterally shit like when i drive it it drives like 5 meters away and then i cant control it anymore i cant give gas or turn its crap if Anyone knows whats wrong then please let me know
Jaxen, first off, please don't shout.....next, maybe you should watch my running video. I beat the crap out of this truck and literally $0.25 worth of shock oil, I was back in business. So, in my expert opinion, this is a decent truck for the money.
Probably for a newbie although this and the slash are great cars, I would probably go with the slash because of part availability and large community that Traxxas has to help you if you get stuck. Hope this helped!
+Leakywaders54 As much as I like to steer people clear of Traxxas, the Slash 2wd is a great truck. It has a huge following and is the "whore" of the upgrade market.
Thanks for the Review. Are there any major differences between the truck above and the newer Version except for the red Body?
nice review Rich. what do you use to clean your rc's?
+2cwik4u104 Typically I use an air compressor to blow off the majority, then just a quick wipe down with a microfiber towel and some simple Green
cool thanks. I see how clean your car was after that run and had to ask.
Great review 2 thumbs up.
+Shayen RC Enthusiast. Thanks Shayen!
Do a comparison of the arrma fury BLX brushless rc car and the arrma vorteks RC car please
+Chandler Nelson I don't really plan to get a vorteks
I ordered the newer one by mistake(the red one) and amazon sent me this one by mistake, but I'm happy tho
Nice luck there!

+Anthony Eaglebarger (toysoldier46552) Yeah, your screen is probably right.....that damn colorblindness thing! lol
The RCNetwork Yeah but their "yellow" is not exactly fully yellow so don't get too upset by it.
great review, cool stuff bro ;-D
+RC VHX 22 Thanks VHX!
Great video. Still think they could've included better shocks for the price.
+Rowdy Yates Sadly, it's kinda well known (and accepted) to just upgrade to aluminum shock caps on Arrma's 1/10th models.
+DecadeOfAggression I agree!
+Rowdy Yates Yeah, some aluminum bodied/and capped shocks would have been nice for $369

Nice review as always :D Just ordered a lrp s8 rebel bx nitro hope itll be as good as this xD
+sleepwalker10101 Nice!
sorry because mine breaks ever y run and i dont even jump it. maybe tge factory had a mistake on mine sorry
This rc car is litterally shit like when i drive it it drives like 5 meters away and then i cant control it anymore i cant give gas or turn its crap if Anyone knows whats wrong then please let me know
It's called 2wd...and most likely, you've only driven 4wd trucks before. It takes finesse to drive 2wd.....and yes, I barely have any finesse!
DO NOT BUY IT. IT BREAKS TOOOOOOOOO EASLY. HAS CHEAP PLASTIC. YOU AND I THAT HAVE BOUGHT MADE A BAD CHOICE

Kelperco RUclips you Just can't drive
Kelperco RUclips I wouldn't recommend a brushless truck to a beginner. Get the mega and once you've gotten used to driving, go back to the BLX
so what to get for a newbie?
this or slash?
Probably for a newbie although this and the slash are great cars, I would probably go with the slash because of part availability and large community that Traxxas has to help you if you get stuck. Hope this helped!

I like the Fury more than my Slash
