This ready to run RC short course truck has been engineered specifically for newcomers to brushless RC driving who want to grow their skills from 2S to 3S power without purchasing expensive upgrades or having to buy a completely new vehicle. Whether you're exploring the world of ready to run RC cars for the first time or you're a seasoned basher looking for an affordable brushless platform, the FURY 223S BLX delivers premium performance at a price that won't break the bank.

What makes the FURY 223S BLX truly special is its flexible power system. Start with a 2S LiPo battery for impressive 35+ mph top speeds that match or exceed what other manufacturers offer in their 2S bashers. When you're ready to take things to the next level, simply install a 3S battery to unlock pro-level 50+ mph performance. This scalability means you're not locked into a single power level — your RC truck grows with you. The included Spektrum SLT2 transmitter features intelligent throttle limiting that keeps you safe as you develop your driving skills, automatically restricting top speed to 50% or 75% until you're confident enough to unleash the full potential. For UK RC enthusiasts seeking a brushless RC truck that offers exceptional value and genuine progression, the FURY 223S BLX is a standout choice.

ARRMA has earned its reputation in the RC hobby for building tough, reliable vehicles that can take punishment whilst delivering genuine performance. The FURY 223S BLX is no exception. Its durable composite chassis, heavy-duty transmission, and waterproof Spektrum electronics mean you can bash in virtually any weather condition without worry. The aggressive short course body styling combined with the closed-wheel design gives you confidence in competitive racing, and the adjustable suspension allows you to fine-tune your setup as your terrain and driving style evolve.

Key Features

• 2S and 3S Ready Power System — The FURY 223S BLX accepts both 2S and 3S LiPo batteries, allowing you to start at 35+ mph and progress to 50+ mph without any hardware upgrades or component replacements. This flexibility ensures your RC truck investment remains relevant as your skills improve, saving you money and frustration.
• Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) — The integrated Spektrum DSC technology features four selectable modes that automatically apply steering corrections to improve your control, confidence and safety whether you're bashing on high-grip tarmac or low-grip surfaces. As you gain experience, you can disable DSC and rely purely on the driving skills you've learned.
• Intelligent Throttle Limiting — The Spektrum SLT2 2.4GHz transmitter includes automatic speed limiting that lets you set maximum available throttle to 50% or 75%, keeping you in control as you transition from beginner to intermediate to advanced driving. You'll never have to worry about going faster than you can safely manage.
• Waterproof Electronics Throughout — Both the Spektrum SLT 45A 2-in-1 brushless ESC and receiver unit, and the Spektrum S681 metal-geared digital servo are fully waterproof, allowing you to bash in wet conditions and muddy terrain without concern. (For detailed waterproof specifications, please refer to the instruction manual.)
• Heavy-Duty Metal Gear Differential — Factory-assembled and installed, the robust metal gear differential transmits power from the Spektrum 4000Kv brushless motor to the rear wheels with reliability and precision. The entire power system is carefully protected for consistent performance across all terrain types.
• All-Terrain Independent Suspension — The truck features oil-filled, coil-over shocks paired with independent suspension geometry that keeps the ride smooth over rough, uneven ground. Adjustable ride height lets you increase ground clearance when you need it, adapting your setup to different bashing environments.

• Short Course Body Design — The aggressive closed-wheel body design not only looks purposeful and modern, it also provides practical racing advantages. The sealed wheel wells mean you can make aggressive block passes without worrying about tangling your tyres with competitors' vehicles, making it ideal for both recreational bashing and competitive short course racing.
• Spektrum 4000Kv Brushless Motor — The included brushless motor delivers efficient, consistent power delivery with minimal maintenance compared to brushed alternatives. The 40mm cooling fan integrated into the power system helps maintain optimal operating temperatures during extended bashing sessions.
• Premium dBoots Fortress SC Tyres — The truck rolls on genuine dBoots Fortress SC all-terrain tyres mounted on tough black multi-spoke wheels. These provide exceptional traction and durability across multiple terrain types, from smooth hard-packed dirt to loose, muddy surfaces.
• Impact-Absorbing Bumpers and Nerf Bars — Composite front and rear bumpers absorb impacts during inevitable crashes, whilst strong composite nerf bars protect the truck's sides during aggressive driving. A wheelie bar adds another safety and performance element to the package.
