Hey Kev. I’d love to see you make the Gorgan brushless! I think you should put an Arrma 3s combo in it from the Vorteks blx or Senton blx. Not only do you already have a few but it’s keeping it Arrma which I feel like would be the route for most beginners.

They use a tapered head screw on the steering servo saver so it causes the collar to break. I switched it to a flat screw. You can’t get the servo saver because they are on back order but the one that fits the Voltage, the parts will fit this one. There are two screws take out the top the screw first remove that part of the servo saver and the steering arms then remove the servo screws and the saver will come out as normal. You do not have to split the chassis.
@fartdonkey82907 ай бұрын
I've seen what tapered head screws can do to cabinets, can't imagine how easily they'd split plastic. Pretty stupid
@204_rc7 ай бұрын
11:40 No, no you don't have to split open the chassis to access the servo-saver. You just remove one screw from the linkage below, 4 screws from up top to remove the servo and it's all out. Easy peasy. (I bought the kit Gorgon.)

so when you change the motor to brushless does it need a new esc too or are there esc that run brushed and brushless because id like to see a cheap brushless upgrade for it since its made for beginners.

This will need a brushless ESC & separate receiver if you want to go brushless. The fitted ESC is brushed two wire only & has a receiver built in. I think this truck is probably best left as is, there are plenty of “relatively” cheap brushless trucks out there.

I got one of these, the green and yellow one too. My first ever Arrma purchase. I absolutely love this thing! Sure it’s brushed and 2wd, but for me that’s what so alluring. It takes me back to the 80’s feel and look of RC cars. This thing is cheap, durable, stable, and for a brushed motor it scoots! I liked it so much I bought another Arrma RC, the Big Rock. This Gorgon I’m sure is supposed to be aimed more at the new or novice RC hobbyist. But as a guy who’s been in this hobby on and off nearly 40 years, I love the Gorgon. I drive it more than any other RC I have. Great video as always, Kev. This traxxas fanboy of the past is starting to pay much closer attention to the Arrma lineup. Mostly, because their prices across the board are in some cases much cheaper than the traxxas comparables.
