ARRMA NERO 6S MT - Smart Diffs!

this look pretty cool, a erevo competitor at last. hopefully it handles 6s better though  also it uses xt90! that means i wouldn't have to change the plugs on the esc  

Nice looking truck.

Very fancy ideas - needs somebody experienced to operate and not destroy it!

 

Most powerful? Don't think so - there are 1/5 Redcats and 1/6 FG's out there which are electric powered, even if we're not going to mention 'X'.

Does look nice. Not that we're going to be able to get hold of them here anyway! lol

Proper E-Revo rip off though. Right down to the bumper mounts

There's a pic of the diffs - now they could be made of cheese but there physically bigger than the Kraton / Talion ones.

Don't shoot the messenger!  

 

For all this publicity Hobbico ought to favour me with a test rig   

No worries, and agreed!

 

I did say I like the look, as in specifications of it!!

nice idea on the diff locking, but if I'm honest I see a locked diff causing a fair bit of wear.  Happy to be proven wrong mind.

It's ok - my dry humor rarely comes across well!

 

on the plus side for Arrma it's good to see some innovation an MT without a wing!

those a arms dont look very thick. I hope this is really good though. are there any pics of underneath? i am not expecting it to have a metal chassis, but it would be nice if it did.

Hit the source link, there's lots of photo's but due to the way ARRMA have done the page I couldn't borrow them as easily as usual

Just seems like a lot of faff to me, a big ass 6s powered MT should not be drifting or climbing, it should be looning, with mucho ramp silliness. Stop trying to invent things we don't need, Just my 2 bob.

damn it has metal tvps. its looks way too nice.  i'm sad because i can feel the wallet breaking already.

they do do a version without the locking diffs according to the website. 

looks sweeeeeet!!...I like 6s....

I quite like the look of it. Shame about the manufacturer tho

One trip down to the usual bash/ramp spot and I can just see bits of new fangled diff taking out small park dwelling toddlers in a pipe-bomb style, and I'm too pretty to throw myself on a Improvised Explosive Diff to save anyone!

The ESC looks like a Hobbywing EZRUN MAX8?

Modelsport stock Arrma, so should be able to order it. 

 

I like, 2016 is looking better and better. 

I like all the tricks they've built in, especially the locking diffs, it means you can do more than one style of driving with just one truck. 

Be nice to see Arrma really take off over here, that granite truck really really took a beating on bigsquids review, just a shame no one stocks them over here. Looks like Arrma & Helion are on the up..

I've got the kraton and there typhon and both ecs's popped on me.....I hope they have sorted that issue out with out adding more issues with the fancy new diffs!! But I really do hope it's a solid truck as the idea of it is interesting..

without taking the thing apart and swapping over bits.....

I'm liking this a lot I'm no Arrma fan but this might change my mind  

 

 

^^^...do we have a price for it???

So it's a Revo mixed with a Summit with a bit of Savage thrown in.
