More Information
You can have everything you want in a brushless stadium truck with the 1/10 scale ARRMA VORTEKS 223S BLX 2WD. Straight out of the box, it offers ready-to-run simplicity, attitude-packed styling, the toughness to take hits, and the power to keep going faster as your driving skills grow. Ready for 2S or 3S power, this basher delivers premium performance — at a price you can afford.
ARRMA developed the 223S series especially for newcomers to brushless bashing who want to progress from 2S to 3S power without adding upgrades or buying a new vehicle. With the VORTEKS 223S BLX 2WD, you can start with a 2S LiPo for 56+ km/h top speeds that match or beat the best that other manufacturers’ 2S bashers can do. Then, whenever you’re ready, move up to a 3S battery for pro-level 80+ km/h bashing.
You can control how fast your VORTEKS 223S BLX 2WD goes not only through your battery choice but also by where you set the throttle limiter on its included Spektrum SLT2 radio. With throttle limiting, the SLT2 radio automatically restricts top speed to a comfortable level until you’re ready for it all. Set the throttle limiting switch to 50% or 75% and you’ll never have to worry about going faster than you can safely manage. Make the transition from 2S to 3S speeds with total confidence.
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) built into the stadium truck’s Spektrum electronics offers another major advantage. With four selectable modes, DSC will automatically correct steering input as needed to improve your control, confidence, and safety, whether you’re bashing on high-grip or low-grip surfaces. As you gain experience, simply turn off DSC and succeed with the skills you’ve learned.
With its ideal combination of stability and agility, you can bash the VORTEKS 223S BLX 2WD stadium truck in almost any environment — off-road, on dirt and grass, in car parks, and across paved or asphalt surfaces. Its wide stance improves control at any speed. Take advantage of the easy handling to learn lines and precision driving techniques while carving turns without slowing down.
The stadium truck’s durable composite chassis features oil-filled shocks, metal-geared differentials, and more for impressive strength. Its high-quality, factory-installed Spektrum electronics are waterproof for worry-free bashing in any conditions. High-traction, multi-surface dBoots tyres on tough multi-spoke wheels add to the unstoppable performance. Topping it all off is a sleek stadium truck body with a tough injection-moulded wing and protective roof skids.
If you’re a stadium truck enthusiast who’s ready to try brushless bashing, look no further than the 1/10 scale ARRMA VORTEKS 223S BLX 2WD. Just add your choice of battery and charger — then take your bashing skills to the next level!
