This updated 1/8 scale KRATON 6S BLX 4X4 has the power for 65+ mph speeds and the toughness to keep going after getting big air. It’s also fast and fun on 4S if you’re not yet ready for 6S extremes - and comes equipped to make that leap whenever you are.
The 1/8 scale ARRMA KRATON 6S BLX 4X4 earned its reputation as the ultimate speed monster truck. The 6S-ready design, reinforced with legendary ARRMA toughness, handles big air and brutal bashing right out of the box. Now, the KRATON launches a new chapter with this latest evolution. ARRMA takes its epic speed and strength to the next level, adding key upgrades to elevate its performance to new extremes.
The chassis plate, differentials, front bumper, skid plate, and even the wing mount have all been improved with EXB (Extreme Bash) toughness. New side guards, a two-piece tower-to-tower brace, and inner body tower add more strength and simplify maintenance. The iconic KRATON monster truck body now comes in four striking new multi-color factory finishes, and has a convenient, quick-release, clipless body retention system.
With its 6S-capable Spektrum brushless system, you can send the KRATON 6S BLX 4X4 racing and leaping at incredible 65+ mph real speeds. Components include a Firma 150A Smart V2 ESC with new, more powerful firmware, a Firma 2050Kv brushless motor, and reliable, steel geared S665 steering servo. The electronics are waterproof so you can blast without worry in any conditions - even mud or snow.
Install a 6S LiPo battery and your KRATON 6S BLX 4X4 unleashes next-level speeds and performs jaw-dropping jumps. If you’d prefer to log more bashing experience before hitting those extremes, simply start with a 4S LiPo pack. You’ll have plenty of fast and fearless fun without leaving your comfort zone. Then, when you’re ready to take it up to eleven, plug in a 6S battery and blast off!
With its throttle limiting feature, the Spektrum SLT3 transmitter can also help smooth your transition into 6S power. When activated, throttle limiting automatically limits top speed to a level you select until you’re confident you can manage it all. Set the throttle limiter switch to 50% or 75% and you won’t have to worry that your KRATON 6S BLX 4X4 will go faster than you can handle. You’ll make the move up 6S brushless speeds confidently and in complete control.
Take the ready-to-run KRATON 6S BLX 4X4 blasting on any terrain, including asphalt, dirt, gravel, or short grass. Set up some ramps or build a few mounds in the dirt - set a new long distance record every time you jump. With your choice of 4S or 6S battery and charger, you’ll have everything you need for speed monster truck thrills the way only ARRMA makes them.

EXB (EXTREME BASH) UPGRADES

ICONIC KRATON BODY
The streamlined KRATON monster truck body is available in four striking, multi-color factory finishes. Its quick-release, clipless body retention system doubles as protection against body punch through. The mount for its high downforce wing now has EXB (Extreme Bash) durability to resist breakage.

An EXB (Extreme Bash) 29mm limited slip center differential improves your control even on slippery or rough surfaces. Durable steel driveshafts provide a reliable, heavy-duty drivetrain that holds up to extreme jumps and high-speed 6S bashing.
SPEKTRUM 2.4GHz SLT3 TRANSMITTER
The high-quality Spektrum SLT3 3-channel transmitter is perfect for drivers of all experience levels.

Four AA batteries are included.

Factory-installed Spektrum electronics deliver added reliability and punch. The Firma 150A Smart V2 ESC has all-new firmware for even more power, and the high-torque S665 digital steering servo uses tough steel gears. Both are waterproof for worry-free bashing in any conditions. (For details on waterproof standards, refer to the KRATON 6S BLX 4X4 instruction manual.)
ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION
With an all-terrain independent suspension and adjustable 16mm oil-filled shocks on aluminum towers to soak up bumps, the KRATON 6S BLX 4X4 blasts over dirt, asphalt, and grass. If your bashing takes you over uneven surfaces, you can adjust the ride height to increase ground clearance.
dBOOTS COPPERHEAD TIRES
Massive, super-aggressive dBoots Copperhead tires, mounted on strong, multi-split-spoke wheels, provide solid grip for fast action on all of your favorite bashing surfaces.
