Product Description
Arrma VORTEKS 223S BLX Brushless 4X4 Stadium Truck RTR with DSC, Purple
Stretching your skills with high-speed brushless bashing is easy when you start with the 1/10 scale ARRMA VORTEKS 223S BLX 4X4 stadium truck. It has everything you’re looking for — ready-to-run ease, legendary durability, and an affordable low price — plus 2S and 3S capability for amplified performance as you grow, no upgrades needed.
The VORTEKS 223S BLX 4X4 reaches 35+ mph top speeds with a 2S LiPo. That matches or beats the best that other manufacturers’ 2S bashers can do. When you’re ready to go faster, just install a 3S battery. Now you can unleash the stadium truck’s full 50+ mph potential for aggressive off-road blasting!
You determine how fast your VORTEKS 223S BLX 4X4 can go with your battery selection and where you set the SLT3 transmitter’s throttle limiter switch. Throttle limiting automatically limits the top speed to a level you prefer until you’re ready for it all. Set the switch to 50% or 75% and you’ll never worry about going faster than you can safely control. You’ll make the transition from 2S to 3S brushless speeds with complete confidence.
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) built into the stadium truck’s Spektrum electronics offers steering assistance to match the driver’s experience level. 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, just turn off the DSC and use the skills you’ve learned.
With its ideal combination of stability and agility, you can bash the VORTEKS 223S BLX 4X4 stadium truck in almost any environment — off-road, on dirt and grass, in parking lots and over paved and 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 composite chassis features extended height dirt defenders, oil-filled shocks with silicone O-rings, metal geared differentials, and more for impressive durability. Its high-quality, factory-installed Spektrum electronics are waterproof for worry-free bashing in any conditions. High-traction dBoots tires on tough multi-spoke wheels add to the unstoppable performance. Topping it all off is a sleek stadium truck body with tough, injection-molded wing and protective roof skids.
Choose the ARRMA VORTEKS 223S BLX 4X4 stadium truck for an affordable, successful start in brushless bashing. It’s all you need to take your bashing skills on to pro level!

The included SLT3 radio can automatically limit top speed to a comfortable level until you’re ready for it all.
DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC)
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) built into the stadium truck's Spektrum electronics offers steering assistance to match the driver's experience level.

The included, high-quality Spektrum SLT3 3-channel transmitter is perfectly equipped for all drivers. Whether you’re using 2S or 3S power, it can help you learn control skills safely by limiting the short course truck’s maximum available speed to 50% or 75% until you’re ready for it all. Four AA batteries are included.
SPEKTRUM ELECTRONICS
Bash without worry, even in wet conditions. Both the Spektrum SLT 80A 2-in-1 brushless 2S/3S ESC and receiver unit and the Spektrum S662 metal-geared digital steering servo are waterproof. (For details on waterproof standards, refer to the VORTEKS 223S BLX 4X4 stadium truck instruction manual.)
SUPER TOUGH TRANSMISSION
Factory assembled and installed, the heavy-duty, metal gear differential sends power from the Spektrum 3100Kv brushless motor to all four wheels for blasting through challenging terrain. The entire power system is well-protected for dependable performance on all terrain.

The durability of its ventilated composite chassis lets you send your VORTEKS 223S BLX 4X4 stadium truck over punishing terrain with confidence. Higher side guards offer maximum protection from dirt and debris.
ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION
The all-terrain independent suspension and oil-filled, coilover shocks soak up bumps. If your bashing takes you over uneven surfaces, you can adjust the ride height to increase ground clearance.
LOW STADIUM TRUCK BODY
Adding to its exciting realism, the VORTEKS 223S BLX 4X4 stadium truck body is securely held in place by a hidden body retention system. The body is easy to remove if you need to access the on-board electronics.
