The Fastest ARRMA 1/10 Scale 4x4 Yet! Speed Bashing at Its Best
ARRMA takes its 4X4 3S BLX speed bashing platform to the next level with the VORTEKS Stadium Truck RTR. It's the fastest, most advanced ARRMA 1/10 scale 4X4 model yet, and the first to include the benefits of Spektrum Smart electronics and AVC.
ARRMA has taken its 4X4 3S BLX speed bashing platform to the next level with the VORTEKS Stadium Truck. This is the fastest and most technically advanced 1/10 scale 4X4 vehicle in the ARRMA lineup, and it's engineered to deliver astonishing speed, control and durability - at an incredibly affordable price.
Overview
With the installed, 2S or 3S compatible Spektrum™ Firma™ 3200Kv brushless motor, the VORTEKS™ is fast right out of the box. Using a 3S LiPo battery and an optional pinion gear, it easily becomes the first ARRMA® 4X4 3S BLX model capable of 60 mph and more!
The proven tough ARRMA® 4X4 platform lets you bash at high speeds in almost any environment - off-road, on dirt and grass, on parking lots and over paved and asphalt surfaces. Its durability comes from a strong composite chassis featuring extended height dirt defenders, oil-filled shocks with silicone O-rings, metal geared differentials and more. Rugged bumpers and high-traction dBoots® Katar™ tyres mounted on tough, gun-metal colored wheels add to its unstoppable performance. The VORTEKS™ 4X4 3S BLX also includes a sleek, new stadium truck body with tough, injection-moulded wing and protective roof skids.
ARRMA® adds the security of advanced Spektrum™ electronics to the VORTEKS™ Stadium Truck's speed and toughness to create a totally exhilarating bashing experience. With its included DX3 DSMR® 2.4GHz radio system, SR6200A receiver and Firma™ 100A ESC, this is the first ARRMA® 1/10 scale 4X4 model to provide the benefits of AVC® (Active Vehicle Control®) and Smart technology straight out of the box.
With the AVC® system's on-demand traction control, you can dial-in extra stability as needed to carve corners or nail jumps without backing off the power. You have full-throttle freedom over rough terrain, slick surfaces and loose dirt. When you don't want the extra traction, just dial back the stability. The DX3 radio's AVC® system works behind the scenes, making hundreds of minute steering and throttle adjustments per second to keep the VORTEKS™ Stadium Truck precisely on the line you want to hold.
Download the optional Spektrum™ Dashboard™ app to your mobile device - it's available free from the iPhone App Store and Google Play - to take full advantage of the Smart electronics' telemetry capabilities. Once you connect your mobile device wirelessly via Bluetooth to the VORTEKS™ Stadium Truck's DX3 transmitter, you can use it to view top speed, battery voltage and other essential data in real time (requires an optional BT2000 Bluetooth Module, available separately).
The ARRMA® VORTEKS™ 4X4 3S BLX Stadium Truck RTR represents the highest level of speed and technology found yet in the proven tough ARRMA® 4X4 platform. If you're a basher who wants the best - and who appreciates outstanding value - it's all right here.

The arrma vorteks is extremely durable and fast but is letdown by the spektrum firmware , I initially got 4 minuets for run time before the low voltage cut off LVC cuts power to save the battery I was running a 8000 mah 100c Zeee battery but had the same issues after testing on a spektrum smart battery 6500 mah 60c After some research on the arrma forum i found this is a common issue with the voltage hungry vorteks This did not come up when i researched the vorteks before purchase this could be missed by some one new to the hobby as it was by me who is coming back into the rc hobby . I must say a big thank you to the team at modelsport for helping find and fix this issue I now can get easily 15 minuets run time full throttle and brake, speed runs on a rough gravel car park this can be extended to 20 minuets + with an alteration to driving style . The truck itself is well made, very durable and fast . You are able to slow the speed down via the remote for newer drivers which is a good feature also the acv stability control keeps the trucks handling in check if needed . I have given only 4 stars due to the firmware fault but a solid 5 for durability and quality I would personally buy arrma again ,There are some great videos on YouTube for set up and jobs to do before you take the truck out for the first time to help avoid any problems .also the arrma forum has lots of info worth a read . Thanks again modelsport for the help .
