SLAMMED FOR ACTION

Street and parking lot blasting action has become a major part of the ARRMA bashing culture. With thousands of dedicated speed run fans hitting the asphalt every week, it’s time to take a look at the beautiful creations they choose to deploy, when all-out speed is the main agenda.

Low-profile street-ready wheels and tires are a popular optional addition, when smooth bashing surfaces are the chosen playground.

The TYPHON 6S and TALION 6S are popular choices, with stealthy black body shell paint being a great look, when ARRMA owners want to stay under the radar during street blasting sessions.

ARRMA fans know that just because the surface may be flat during high speed concrete sessions, it doesn’t mean that the standard specification waterproof electronics are not required. Hitting standing water is a hazard that ARRMA fans are confident they are ready to overcome.

Stock ARRMA diff and shock set ups are beautifully balanced, meaning fans of responsive handling can always rely on fast and agile transmitter responses, when they hammer the throttle. A few simple shock position adjustments allow higher or lower ride height settings to be achieved, which easily soaks up whatever the local mall parking lot has to offer.

The trend of stretching the TYPHON 6S Speed Buggy, by fitting a TALION chassis plate, is a guaranteed way to add even more straight line stability, allowing ballistic top speed to be balanced and controlled. The longer the wheelbase, the easier the street ripping BLX power is handled when shooting straight for the horizon.

Low and mean are the popular themes for ARRMA fans who choose to add a custom look, when they are attacking a street battle. Custom painted optional body shells bring a huge opportunity for bragging rights, meaning street blasting sessions are packed full of chances to style it out like a true speed King.

No matter how ARRMA fans choose to push the limits on hard surfaces, it is certain that this pulse-racing culture is here to stay. BLX brushless power is the perfect gateway to your own personal best speed run. Just hold on tight and have fun.

FASTER BY NATURE, TOUGH DNA

Speed X Strength

Speed, durability, rugged performance, breathtaking power. All these terms are instantly recognisable as key elements of ARRMA blasting machines. From our aggressive body shell styling, to our high-powered brushless power systems, every detail of ARRMA stock specification is built for extreme action.

Racing around the local club track is not only fun, it can often be a rare event for an average bashing vehicle. Not so with ARRMA rigs. Each of our platforms are precision engineered for a wide range of applications. This means you can literally jump from the dirt to the winners podium, all with one vehicle.

Ripping up any terrain is easy when you have the weapon to do the job. ARRMA vehicles ooze rugged features, allowing you to bash more and wrench less. When you choose to step up the game plan, aftermarket upgrades are now in abundance, which gives you even more ‘bashability’ for your buck.

Choosing ARRMA is a one-way ticket to the most fun you can have without actually sitting inside a real Monster Truck, Speed Buggy, Short Course Truck, or Desert Buggy. Stay rolling in every environment and focus on harnessing HUGE amounts of speed and strength, straight from the box.

Fleet Power

ARRMA Squad

Hitting the bash spot with one ARRMA vehicle is proven to be an exhilarating ride. Imagine the awesome terrain-ripping action that can happen when you are equipped with several fast and tough ARRMA blasting machines?

Running a fleet of several ARRMA beasts has become a popular way for adrenaline junkie bashers to enjoy the rugged strength and terrain thrashing speed of our vehicle’s. With hundreds of cool images being shared through Facebook and Instagram each week, it seems fitting that we give you an insight into those lucky ARRMA owners who possess a full fleet.

Many ARRMA owners take pride in rolling out doubles of their favourite all-terrain rigs, with the TALION 6S and KRATON 6S being a regular choice for dual extreme RC action.

ARRMA know what it takes when it comes to creating the ultimate high-performance bashing weapons. Seeing fans of the ARRMA philosophy, Don’t Just Bash, Blast, enjoying more than one of our vehicles, always inspires us to develop new and exciting products.

One thing is for certain. The lucky RC fans who are able to run multiple ARRMA blasting machines are fully aware, adding more awesome potential to their weekend ripping sessions is made easy when they build a fleet of our mean and aggressive beasts.

 

 

Big Rubber, Big Moves

Terrain Attack

ARRMA fans are now synonymous with awesome custom bashing machines, working hard to achieve fresh new looks, based on many of our fast and tough blasting beasts. One area that never fails to remain popular is custom wheel and tire choices. ARRMA fans love beefing up their rides to allow even more dirt-ripping action.

The fun part of selecting your own set of new tires and rims is balancing the boost in performance with the undoubtedly cool increase in mean looks. Going bigger and bolder with your tire choice can turn your already awesome stock ARRMA rig into an even more aggressive animal.

From the parking lot, to the sand pit. From the beach, to the mud bog, no matter how you decide to shoe your ARRMA bashing vehicle, you can create an epic new look and find new benefits from surface-specific handling characteristics.

All ARRMA vehicles are equipped with fast and simple wheel hex fittings, which makes rapid changes easy and hassle-free. Changing wheels and tires is so easy we often see many ARRMA fans fitting special combinations just for photo shoots, then switching back to their super-durable stock configuration when they want to go and blast some mud and snow.

One thing is certain folks. However you choose to customize your own wheel and tire set up, the aggressive looks and handling variations that can be achieved will provide you with almost limitless options. All you have to them decide is what surface you will attack.

Share your custom wheel and tire options through social media and add the tag #CUSTOMARRMA so the community can enjoy your hard work.
