In case you were wondering what Arrma's "Gorgon" means.

There's something about it that just looks toy grade.

I need to stay focused on my Limitless, not even finished with it yet. Besides, I have my eye on a Typhon 6s.

 

[Doom!]

I'm willing to accept the Gorgon for what it is, a truck that looks fun. At this price point I can bash without stress.

I tend to get upgrade fever when I get a new rc, this one will stay stock unless something drastic needs addressing. Sometimes we need to remember to enjoy the simple things.

Let us know what you think when you get it Doom. I'm curious as to whether or not aarma changed the way the spur mounts.

On the Granite voltage, the bearing for the spur is supported by the spur cover. That's what makes it a no for me. It's difficult to get correct gear mesh that way. Was for me anyway. I am a little slow sometimes, maybe just me.

I have to wait a bit before I can pick one up, but trying to squeeze one in. Had to order a new oven and dishwasher so the rc budget took a healthy hit this month.

I hate it when life interferes with my RC fun

Home before hobby is always the way to go.
We just got a dishwasher. But we love it.

We just got a dishwasher.

I use to have a dishwasher and a sandwich maker, but then I got divorced.






I can't imagine why she left.

No way I'm getting rid of my Cook!

 

[turbo27]

We love to cook together. No way to change that. . Just bought a Bosh. No lookin back now.

Our kitchen is to small, she kicks me out of there. I think it's more for our safety though.

 

[turbo27]

She cooks on the inside, I cook on the grill. We help each other. Either way, I do the dishes. Just the way it is. It works for us. That's why we got a new dishwasher.

They put "S. L. Jackson" on the drivers tag. I've been laughing my ass off about that for at least 15 minutes. Arrma has hit a whole new level of troll.

Exocaged did a great breakdown on the Gorgon. It has 22mm wide gears in the transmission. The a-arms are beefy. I'm almost 100% sure Arrma built it with all the intentions of running it brushless. To switch it out doesn't look at all difficult as long as you run a 550 sized can. MAX10 G2 with a 2400kv would be perfect. Slap in your favorite reciever and I'm sure you've got a 40mph monster truck for under $400 bucks.

 

[turbo27]

So are you getting one?

 

[Krakentuned RC]

Yup, i want to buy two next week. I plan to leave one for my son, and the other is all mine to tweak. Obviously a brushless swap will be in the works almost immediately.

 

[turbo27]

Cool, posts some pics.

 

[Doom!]

Picked up a Gorgon today at my local LHS. Battery is charging.

 

[luke66]

lucky.....

YOU EVEN GOT GREEN.
good taste BTW.

 

[turbo27]

Nice ride. Bet you'll have fun with that.

Looking forward to the after-action reports!
