The new RTR package also includes a Spektrum^™ FIRMA^™ 160A V2 Smart ESC and Spektrum^™ DX3 3-channel 2.4GHz DSMR radio system with Spektrum^™ AVC^® technology built-in to keep the huge power under control.

Numerous EXB-hardened parts and options give the ready-to-run ARRMA^® KRATON^® 1/5 8S EXtreme Bash Speed Monster Truck virtually unstoppable strength right out of the box. They include a 5mm thick EXB 7075 T6 CNC aluminum laser-etched chassis plate; EXB red-anodized CNC aluminum front brace mount; and EXB front bumper with impact-absorbing design. Topping it off is a monster truck body finished with an aggressive new EXB color scheme for a look unlike any other vehicle. No "Candy Crush" designs here — the KRATON^® 1/5 8S EXtreme Bash Speed Monster Truck is built to be as purposeful as it looks!

Adjustable, oil-filled, 20mm bore shocks with 6mm thick shock shafts and ultra-thick composite towers soak up bumps. The KRATON^® 1/5 8S EXtreme Bash Speed Monster Truck RTR blasts over dirt, asphalt, and grass — all terrain and all conditions. Beefy dBoots^® COPPERHEAD^™ 2 big block tires on multi-spoke wheels with durable hubs add all-terrain traction. Everything in the durable design contributes to confident control and responsive handling at high speeds.

A center body support, aluminum center braces and composite chassis side pods add more strength. All-metal diff outdrives and gearbox internals, plus durable steel driveshafts, provide a reliable, heavy-duty drivetrain that holds up to extreme, high-speed bashing.

ARRMA^® keeps your maintenance downtime to the minimum with its proven efficient, easy-access modular design. Considering its performance, convenience, and value, the KRATON^® 1/5 8S EXtreme Bash Speed Monster Truck is more than a massive and powerful bashing machine. It's the biggest and best ARRMA^® ready-to-run basher to date!
