Arrma Scaler?

[Mopar man]

I have the Arrma Tallion and it is by far the most durable and fun Rc that I own and have owned. The thing is practaly indestructible. Can't wait to see what they come up with next.

They're announced. Not scalers or anything, but its first 4WD 1/10 scale vehicles .

Nothing too remarkable, standard pan RTR with brushed motor.

They hyped up this garbage with a teaser video? WTF? They look like absolute shit from the body to the chassis. And they're about as standard as it gets. But these look more toy grade than anything.

Not scale at all. I was wrong, sadly.

EDIT: $239 for a RTR 4X4. Yep, I do expect garbage.

I mean, I told you guys what it was on page 1 lol...ARRMA has always been entry level cars, but their 1/8 line-up was a big hit because they're pretty durable and well priced.

ARRMA's lineup mostly coincides with Traxxas products anyways. I do love my Nero though, that thing is a beast and takes a lot of abuse, albeit I do snap a lot of axles in the process.

I was running on hope! Don't tear me down more than Arrma already has!

Yep. Arrma is HobbiCo's Traxxas copy. So much so that it resulted in the lawsuit and the divorce. But Traxxas just released the TRX-4 so I was hoping Arrma would follow suit.

Unfortunately, the ProLine is almost definitely the same truck. ProLine's teaser videos gave some clear shots of independent suspension. Does anybody still want independent suspension monster trucks? I thought everything was going scale.

Sheep! We are cloning sheep!!!! Lmao

Well, this might be where companies get the bread and butter. Make affordable bashers at low cost and rake it in from your casual types in the hobby, so the companies can afford to barely break even trying to please the elitist boujee scaler crowd hahaha

I keed, i keed! Well... kinda lol

i mean.. it is Arrma. the fury only lasted so long. I think their 1/8 scale stuff will be the only thing to last.

Sliding Driveshafts This is not new from any stretch of the imagination. They are also putting it on the center shaft which I don't think is a great idea at all. This is where you want metal and don't need the sliding shaft IMO. I think this is the only thing that they are patenting, but I'm not sure.

Seems Arrma is going to patent everything, even if it's not their idea, because they are pissed about the Traxxas lawsuit which was justified by every stretch of the imagination IMO. They directly copied Traxxas.



Electronics Module This thing is interesting because everything can be removed from the chassis at once (hence the term "module"), but I don't think they are the first for this. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.



Shock Absorbers Self bleeing? Tell me more! I hate building shocks.

Keyed perch doesn't seem to be that big of a deal except that it appears to have a shock shaft protector built in.
