Hi everyone, How's it going? Today i woke up in the morning to some exciting RC news that there will be coming 2 new Arrma trucks the Senton "V4" 223S BLX and the Fury 223S BLX both coming with all new ESC and Motor combos as well as new body colors and with the Senton it has an all new body and body mount design which is a quick release system with 2 buttons and springs. I'm personally interested in the Senton as i always have been interested in the Senton but never bought one until this got dropped and i may buy one to replace my Slash 4x4 Ultimate and for $339.99 for the new Senton compared to what my Slash currently needs. Let me know what you all think in the comments down below, I think it's been a killer year for RC and Horizon Hobby in general.

Here's more info on both in the links below.

I didn't get along well with my 3S Arrma models, poor drive-line design for my uses, theses loom to be of thd same design, different body though.... maybe that will help. :hehe:

Oh really? I bought a new-old stock Vendetta a few months ago super fast car but just can't stand the plastic diffs they always would mesh too tight no matter how many shims i used so eventually it will get metal diffs. And maybe at some point in time once the new Senton comes out i might try the center diff from it in the Vendetta but who knows. I believe the new Senton has front and rear metal diffs no more plastic as well as a center diff with a steel spur gear like the v2.5 Kraton\Outcast\Mojave 4s trucks. So hopefully these updates will fix those issues.
 
I am a fan of the 3s Sentons. Any Arrma SCT for that matter.

I'm glad they have gone with the centre diff, although I haven't had many issues with the clutch like others have. The clipless body is a good change but I'm sure it too will have teething problems. The raised dirt deflectors is welcomed. Metal gears all round is good too I guess.

Thought they may have fitted sway(anti-roll) bars.

I'm surprised they continued with the Fortresses tyres. They are great when new but are a bit soft and weak so don't last long.

Stability control is a good addition. Not that it needed it.

The 2in1 esc/rx I'm not a fan of. Seems like a budget cut and 80a may be anaemic.

The body styling will take some getting used to. It looks....... moden I guess. I like @Doom! nerf reference 😆 . I prefer the previous SC truck bodies.
 
My question is why does the fury have a 45amp esc and the senton has a 80amp esc.

45amp on a 3650 4000kv setup. Do you think it's gonna get hot?
2wd vs. 4wd power requirements are certainly going to be different.
