ARRMA 1/10 Fury 223S BLX 2WD Brushless RC Short Course Truck
ARRMA 1/10 Fury 223S BLX 2WD Brushless RC Short Course Truck
The ARRMA Fury 2WD 223S BLX Brushless Ready to Run offers a RC short course truck designed for accessible, high-speed bashing. Featuring a Spektrum 4000kV brushless motor, a composite chassis, and Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) with a Spektrum SLT2 radio, it supports 2S or 3S LiPo batteries for speeds from 35+ to 50+ mph. Tailored for brushless RC truck enthusiasts, it delivers robust performance on dirt, grass, or pavement.
Performance
The Fury 223S achieves 35+ mph on 2S and 50+ mph on 3S LiPo power, driven by a 4000kV brushless motor and SLT 45A 2-in-1 ESC/receiver. The 2WD system with metal gear differentials provides reliable power to dBoots Fortress SC tires, but traction is limited on loose surfaces, causing wheelspin without DSC adjustments. The throttle limiter (50% or 75%) aids beginners, yet some report throttle sticking or low-voltage cutoffs after 10–15 minutes, potentially due to battery quality or ESC overheating. Steering may feel vague at high speeds, and tires wear quickly on asphalt, requiring replacements for frequent use.
Design and Features
The pre-painted purple body features a closed-wheel short course design, ideal for racing without tire entanglement. The composite chassis with a bottom-loading battery door enhances durability and access, but the polycarbonate body scratches easily during crashes. The absence of LED lights limits nighttime appeal, and the integrated Spektrum ESC/receiver locks users into Spektrum radios, restricting customization. The oil-filled shocks and adjustable ride height handle rough terrain, though the 2WD setup may struggle in deep mud compared to 4WD models. Waterproof electronics support wet conditions, per the manual’s standards.
Ease of Use and Maintenance
The Spektrum SLT2 2.4GHz radio with DSC offers four stability modes for beginner-friendly control, though the small transmitter grip may feel cramped. The truck requires a 2S or 3S LiPo battery and charger, with runtimes of 15–30 minutes and charging times of 60–90 minutes. Maintenance is simplified with a modular design, but small screws strip easily, and debris can clog differentials without regular cleaning. Some users report ESC/receiver reliability issues, necessitating replacements for consistent performance.
Special Notes: This is a Ready to Run model, fully assembled with a pre-painted purple body, Spektrum electronics, and four AA transmitter batteries included. Requires a 2S or 3S LiPo battery and charger (not included). Suitable for beginners with DSC and throttle limiter, while advanced users can tune shocks or upgrade tires for better grip.
