. . . ARRMA 1/16 MINI KRATON 3S DSC BLX RTR Speed Monster Truck
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The flagship ARRMA basher gets a new member of the family! Leaner. Meaner. Determined to earn its place. The 1/16 scale ARRMA MINI KRATON 3S BLX 4X4 arrives with raw ambition and zero fear, built to prove that smaller can still send shockwaves across any bash spot.
Its compact footprint hides a full arsenal of ARRMA strength. The mini chassis uses reinforced components and heavy-duty bumpers for the kind of durability that lets you go wild without thinking twice. The aggressive body comes in bold factory paint with a quick release clipless system for fast pit stops and even faster bragging rights.
Then comes the power story that flips the script. The MINI KRATON 3S BLX is the first ARRMA vehicle equipped with PowerGuard. Right out of the box on 3S it runs at the sweet spot of 30+mph and 20mins plus runtime, great for everyone, perfect for dialling in your skills while still feeling the pulse of real brushless authority. If that's too much, flick a switch on the transmitter and open up 30mins plus of play time. When your confidence rises and your grin widens it is time for the PowerKey. Plug it in and unleash full 50+mph 3S muscle that turns this little powerhouse into pure KRATON Chaos.
Inside sits a Spektrum brushless system tuned for maximum fun per square inch. The MINI KRATON launches hard, soaks up punishment, and stays planted across asphalt, dirt, gravel, and grass. Waterproof electronics keep the fun rolling through puddles and mud. Every squeeze of the trigger reminds you that this may be the smallest KRATON ever created but it refuses to play small. The Spektrum SLT transmitter adds helpful control as you level up. Use throttle limiting when you want a calmer learning curve or remove the limiter once the PowerKey is in and let the MINI KRATON show its true colours. The built in Spektrum Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) also has 4 selectable modes that automatically apply steering correction for easy, controllable stunt action based on your preferences and bashing ability.
Set some ramps. Carve new lines. Claim your territory. The ARRMA MINI KRATON 3S BLX 4X4 gives you everything you need to create full scale excitement from a half scale beast. Bring your 3S LiPo and discover how much trouble a compact speed monster can stir up.
Because this is not just the little brother. This is the next KRATON chapter and it is hungry for your trigger finger

Mini Size, BIG Scale Performance
The MINI platform is the next evolution of small-scale ARRMA chaos, debuting with the MINI KRATON 3S BLX 4x4. Built to deliver the performance and durability of its larger-scale counterparts, it packs signature ARRMA speed, toughness, and full-send attitude into a bash-anywhere size. From backyards and driveways to tight bash spots, the MINI platform lets you rip harder, anywhere.
Colour Coded Bash Bar
The colour coded anodized aluminium bash bar integrates into the chassis to provide a rigid backbone for the Mini KRATON.
Dynamic Stability Control
With four selectable modes, Dynamic Stability Control (DSC). will automatically apply steering corrections to improve your control, confidence, and safety, whether you're bashing on high- or low-grip surfaces. As you gain experience, just turn off the DSC and rely on your own skills.
3S Ready with Powerguard
PowerGuard is a new power-control technology that lets a single 3S battery deliver two distinct driving experiences without swapping packs: Adrenaline Mode for smooth, controlled power and long runtimes, and Chaos Mode for full 3S performance and maximum speed. By default, the truck runs in Adrenaline Mode, offering manageable acceleration, 20-30+ MPH speeds, and extended runtimes ideal for newer drivers or backyard bashing. Inserting the included PowerKey into the PowerGuard unlocks Chaos Mode, unleashing explosive acceleration, 50+ MPH capability, and shorter, more intense runs for experienced drivers. This system eliminates the need for both 2S and 3S batteries and gives drivers complete control over performance. Cruise longer when you want or flip the switch to go full send, all with one battery.
Clip-Free Body Attachment
The MINI KRATON 3S BLX 4X4 monster truck body snaps onto the chassis easily, quickly, and securely, and comes off with a simple press-and-release. With no tiny clips to force into place, it's a body attachment system that's perfect even for young bashers.
Tough Metal Gears
Enjoy carefree bashing with your MINI KRATON 3S BLX 4X4 monster truck in any conditions. The drivetrain is metal geared for durability and includes a sealed centre differential for smooth, consistent power transfer.
Iconic KRATON Body
The MINI KRATON monster truck body is available in three striking, multi-colour factory finishes. Its quick-release, clipless body retention system doubles as protection against body punch through.
Fast, Safe Battery Charging
The included Spektrum High Power Smart 3S LiPo Battery and Spektrum S22 3S Battery Charger provides faster charge times and longer runs. When it's time to recharge, just plug it into the convenient Spektrum S22 Mini USB-C 3S Battery Charger. (ARA2508ST1/T2 Only)
Spektrum SLT2 Transmitter
The high-quality Spektrum SLT2 2-channel transmitter is perfectly equipped for all drivers. With 3S power, it can help you learn control skills safely by limiting the desert truck's maximum available speed to 50% or 75% until you're ready for it all. Four AA batteries included.
