The Arrma Gorgon Smart RTR remote control car is an affordable RC monster truck model with 2WD and DC drive. The Gorgon retains all the advantages of Arrma models, such as durability, off-road capabilities or availability of spare parts. This is the perfect car for children and novice drivers. Complete set including a NiMH battery and USB charger, no need to buy anything else!
The model will immediately attract attention out of the box with its original appearance. The body is factory finished in a modern style with color-coordinated elements. Proven Arrma technology gives the composite chassis high durability.
Independent suspension, oil-filled shocks and adjustable ride height ensure a smooth ride. For unstoppable traction, a 2WD transmission transfers power from the Mega 550 DC motor to wheels with massive dBoots Chevron tires. The metal gears used are durable enough for an eventual upgrade to AC drive.
The Spektrum SLT transmitter provides safe operation without signal drops and allows beginners to limit power to 75% or 50% of maximum. For carefree driving, the model uses waterproof components - a Spektrum 2-in-1 25A ESC with receiver and a Spektrum S660 high-torque servo.
Once you get better at driving, you can improve the model and get more power by upgrading to a brushless drive (components for higher power are not included).

Accessories for normal operation
For normal operation of the RC car, you need tire glue, silicone oil for shock absorbers, and a set of Allen screwdrivers.
Tire glue is used to glue the bead of the tire to the rim. It is always necessary to glue the tire firmly around the entire circumference! If the tire is not glued around the entire circumference, it may burst. Tire glue has a special composition, so it is able to glue materials such as rubber or nylon, and the glued joint remains flexible even after hardening. Do not use ordinary superglue - it is not flexible after hardening, and cracks will gradually form around the rim on the tire.
Screw glue is required for routine maintenance. Screws screwed into metal materials (e.g. screws in a motor, worm gear in a pinion) must be secured against loosening with this glue.
