If this stays at that current price, I believe you may be right about it being the best 1/10 budget Rc going today!

Totally agree. I can't think of anything at that price with that level of quality, parts support, and when you go brushless, it's absolutely RIPS!

I love this thing! It was my first Arrma purchase. Had it almost a week. Got the yellow and green one. Got a 2s Lipo and a cooling fan just to be safe. I love love love that Arrma gave us something so retro looking and feeling when you drive it. For me, the 25mph top speed I get stock is more than enough for fun bashing around my yard. I can’t get enough of this thing! I have a traxxas XRT and the newer slash BL 2 that sit on the shelf now in favor of the Gorgon. Great video man. 😎 I also hit the sub button too and smashed the bell!
@Rek_Rc 10 ай бұрын
most of the time 25 MPH is plenty for general bashing and just plain fun. You're right, it does have a retro feel to driving it which I neglected to mention in either video I've done on it so far. It's a great car in general and Arrma made a really good decision making a 1/10 scale car with that level of quality and durability, especially at that price range. It's a grand slam! I really appreciate you watching and dropping a line, it means a lot to me. Thank you!

Can you please help me decide? Arrma Gorgon vs Mjx 14210. I have a fair bit of experience in racing RC years ago. I want to buy myself and my 13 & 14 year old sons a truck each for Xmas to race on a small patch of relatively smooth dirt in my back yard and build some decent jumps for a bit of aerial acrobatics. Which would you buy again knowing what you know now after trying both?
@Rek_Rc 10 ай бұрын
Good question. Both trucks are really good, similarly priced, and durable. But if I had to pick one to buy again, I would buy the gorgon because it's 1/10 scale, has parts support from Arrma, and soon many 3rd party parts as well, it's super easy to upgrade to brushless, more versatile as it's better off road, and it doesn't take much to make one ripping fast. Both are great, but I would go gorgon again. Though I really love MJX cars.

That's crazy. Your Gorgon I've seen so far. 62 mph 👍 What a great little truck. It does it all. Tricks, jumps and speed. It sure would be nice if they had a 4wd version but from what I can see the Gorgon is superior to the Traxxas BigFoot and cost less. I'm looking forward to more awesome videos of this super cool truck. 🏆

It's the best budget priced RC car pretty much ever. I would have liked 4WD myself, but being 2WD helps keep the price low and it's quite capable off road for a 2WD actually. I'm impressed by this RC in every way, and brushless swapping it really only took about 15 minutes, it's the easiest brushless swap I've ever done.
