Technical Performance
This bodyshell is engineered specifically for the NOTORIOUS 6S 4X4 RTR Brushless Stunt Truck platform, a vehicle renowned for its high-speed capability, responsive handling and aggressive stunting performance. The 1/8 scale polycarbonate construction provides the optimal balance between durability and weight, critical factors in maintaining the electrical efficiency and performance characteristics of brushless RC trucks. The pre-painted finish is applied using ARRMA's factory-grade processes, ensuring colour consistency and professional appearance that matches original equipment specifications. The matte blue colour provides excellent visibility during daylight operation and maintains aesthetic appeal throughout extended use. The pre-decalled design incorporates high-quality vinyl decals applied during manufacturing, protecting against peeling and fading far better than hand-applied alternatives. The polycarbonate material specification allows flexibility without brittleness, crucial for absorbing impacts from jumps, rollovers and high-speed crashes typical of 4WD stunt truck operation. With compatibility across NOTORIOUS 6S 4X4 RTR Brushless models and OUTCAST 6S variants, this body demonstrates engineering versatility across ARRMA's stunt truck family.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What models does this ARRMA bodyshell fit? — This shell is compatible with the NOTORIOUS 6S 4X4 RTR Brushless Stunt Truck (models ARA106044 and ARA8611V5) as standard fitment, and with the OUTCAST 6S 4X4 RTR Brushless Stunt Truck variants (models ARA106042, ARA106060 and ARA8710) as standard fitment. If you own an ARRMA 1/8 scale 4X4 RTR brushless truck from these platforms, this body will mount directly without modification.
- Is this bodyshell pre-painted and ready to use? — Yes, this is a completely pre-painted bodyshell with factory-applied matte blue finish and high-quality decals. You can mount it directly to your truck immediately upon receipt—no painting, sanding, primer or finishing work is required, making it perfect for quick replacements during driving sessions.
- What makes the Real Steel finish special? — The patent-pending Real Steel finish authentically displays realistic battle scars, scuffs and scrapes that develop naturally during aggressive RC driving and stunting. Rather than attempting to hide wear marks, this innovative finish celebrates the authentic character of active RC bashing, with each mark telling a story of your truck's adventures on track and in the field.
- Will the bodyshell survive heavy impacts and crashes? — The strong, flexible polycarbonate material is specifically engineered to absorb impacts from high-speed crashes, rollovers and aggressive stunting typical of 4WD stunt truck operation. The flexibility of polycarbonate prevents cracking and splitting that would occur with rigid materials, making this shell highly durable for intense RC driving.
- How quickly can I install this body on my NOTORIOUS 6S? — Installation is exceptionally fast because the body arrives pre-trimmed with all windows and body lines already cut to precision tolerances, and body post mounting holes are pre-drilled. Most users can complete installation in just a few minutes without requiring cutting tools or specialist knowledge.
- What is the difference between this pre-painted body and painting one myself? — Factory pre-painted bodies eliminate 2-4 hours of spray application, drying and finishing time whilst guaranteeing professional-grade colour consistency and appearance that matches ARRMA OEM specifications. The factory-applied decals are more durable than hand-applied alternatives and resist peeling and fading far longer.
- Is this suitable for competitive racing? — This bodyshell is designed for the NOTORIOUS 6S platform, which is engineered as a recreational stunt truck rather than a dedicated race vehicle. It performs excellently for high-speed bashing, stunting and aggressive off-road driving, and is equally suitable for casual club events and bashers who prioritise durability and fun over competition performance.
