The media could not be loaded. If you want to bash, no better brand than Arrma and the Gorgon is the perfect entry vehicle to get started with. It rips with the stock setup. Find some ramps and tear this thing up! So much fun to bash, I bought three of these (yellow, red and blue) so two of my sons can bash together in the track at the same time. Super fun, Gorgon will not disappoint! Highly recommend buying a 2s lipo 7200 mah (ec3 connector) with a high c rating for super long run times with consistent punch. Also a 40mm fan and cover go well with this truck to keep the stock brushed motor cool for longer life and longer run times (it plugs directly into the fan port on the stock ESC for power). If this is your first RC truck, you will have to pair the remote with the truck the first time. Super easy, watch a YouTube video if the instruction manual isn't clear enough, but it should be. Also make sure to switch the pin on the controller (ESC) from its stock position from Nimh to lipo before upgrading to a 2s battery. This thing is fast. It jumps, cartwheels, flips and rolls and just keeps on going. This is my favorite basher out of my collection and super fun to just keep stock and tear it up. Gorgon's mega air is a crowd pleaser for sure. Best basher for the price and she won't disappoint. Even when you're ready to move up to faster brushless vehicles, you will still appreciate Gorgon in your collection and find yourself breaking it out from time to time because she is just made for freestyle.

First stock run on a 5200mah 2s battery...wow this truck is so much fun...I know there is higher end stuff out there but this was a great driving experience...when it started to slow down only the steering would work i got nervous...but i brought it inside threw a fresh battery on it and everything worked great!!! Not bad considering I ran in 3 inches of snow lol..I'm excited about putting my brushless system in it....once it dries of course lol..I think for the price, this is absolutely worth every penny...great product Arrma!!!

It's a great truck and I'm willing to overlook a few flaws for it's price. Before your first run, tighten the bolts that hold the motor in place, possibly even use a drop of blue loc tite on the threads. I used a screwdriver style bit driver vs the included allen key. The included esc has a ch3 output, but does not seem to supply enough voltage for any meaningful lighting. With a 2s lipo, it's pleanty fast enough and will do wheelies, just make sure to set the jumper on the ESC. Lots of info and help online with a quick Google search, and will convert easily to brushless Front shocks are a little soft from the factory, I used the included clips to make it stiffer, it does well Read more

This thing is an absolute tank. The only issue I had was that it's not brushless lol. I've since upgraded it to a brushless system and it absolutely rips! Arrma makes a solid RC! I haven't had any issues with anything on this. I've taken it off some huge jumps and it soaks them up like they're nothing. Super happy with my purchase and if Arrma ever makes a brushless version, I'll 100% buy another one. This is just my opinion, but Arrma is WAY better built than Traxxas products. I say that because I also bought a Traxxas Stampede Bigfoot and the screws on that thing keep loosening on their own, and the shocks bent. Arrma for the win! Read more

Love this thing. Put a hobbywing 120a esc and 3700kv brushless motor on it and this thing is a blast. If you’re like me and don’t want to spend a lot of money this is the way to go. I bought the spectrum slr300 receiver that binds to the stock controller to save some money. Also I would invest in body protectors I bought a proline kit for $20 but they do have arrma kits you can buy for $10 because the body will get destroyed in a couple runs if your not careful other than that it’s perfect especially for the price Read more
