#Arrma #RCKicks #SentonBoost
Thank you for this! You are exactly right. The Arrma Senton 4x2 3s Brushed trophy truck, is the perfect tool for an introduction into RC modding and racing. I'm older and I used to have RC vehicles as a kid. Life moves on and priorities shift. Expenses get limited.
I had 200 dollars to burn and I decided to check out a hobby shop. I hadn't been to one in years. I asked where the cars and trucks were. After a short bit of talking, I saw the 4x2 boost sitting on the shelf and said, "I definitely want that. That looks cool." I knew nothing about Arrma and only a bit about Traxxis. I'm so glad I bought this thing.
I got the 4x4 upgrade kit. Then my servo went dead. So I'm learning how to replace that. I lost a wheel bearing, too. So all of it is on the way. Ive read a lot of forums and reviews so that I know I am buying good replacement parts. I can't wait to slowly replace things with metal upgrades and stronger parts.
This thing would be perfect for any engineering class.
I think that this is a great idea by Arrma, for someone new to the hobby, you can build from a great platform, slowly and inexpensively from a good 2wd to one of the best 3s 4wd cars going. Built by yourself 👌. No other manufacturer offers this kind of personal investment with a RTR. 👍👍
Good explanation, not everybody has the money upfront.
Yep I'm fixing to go brushless on my senton keep up the great videos 😊, Vegas Paul here..
Great video, and I like the way you took the time to explain how there is a clear and vibrant market for Arrma to be producing these robust RTR's with a welcoming price point that can easily be upgraded as time and budget allows.
Hi Fil :) Yep, people forget what it's like when you come into a hobby at the beginning, it can be overwhelming and off putting. people just want something that works well and isn't $400+ upfront
Great vid. It was your tt02 neo scorcher upgrade vid that got me back into the hobby 4 years ago, and everyone forgets that newbies need good info. Just upgraded my K4 to the boost alloy diffs - not as easy as a power module change - you should consider that too to help newbies 👍
Arrma is killing it with these.
Get the udr... I got one myself, waouw what a machine. Already blown a pinion but what a fun
I’m def coping
I like to see you get a UDR
Later this year fingers crossed
I’m not that beginner but,still new to the hobby but I enjoy working on rc cars that’s why I want one.
Just done this with my Vortecks great video buddy
Are you able to use the stock receiver with the stock remote for this upgrade?
Fyi ,the SLR300 Spektrum receiver works with the stock Tx if you want to use it. I did that with mine.
I can’t wait to get my Hobby wing for mine set up in a few weeks along with my bandit and I’m thinking of keeping the 2wd boost 2wd well would like to do a back slash on a senton conversion would be really cool. 😎
Go for it!
Keyboard warriors, who loves them
Been thinking about picking one of these up for a while, I reckon it's a pretty good deal for what you get out of the box. I could probably turn into a BLX with the spares and combos I have already.
Well done Arma great update route.. shame they don’t do a buggy version 😊 Pete
UDR would be cool
Go for the UDR.....you won't be disappointed......a much better vehicle......just as capable as the maxx slash.....
@@mandismith89 you need to get out more......and the Maxx Slash is worth it?
Wrong......TLR....
LoL it's still a slash LMAO , not even in the same league as the UDR. @@paulpadilla5288
get well soon maestro Gav :)
Get the UDR my best rc car Ive ever driven
Great video! In my country it’s cheaper to buy the 2wd version and convert to 4wd and make brushless myself than to buy the already 4wd brushless version. Do you know if the brushless 4wd has any other better components than the 2wd except for electronics?
Gearbox is upgraded I think
@@RCKickschannel ah okay. How has it been holding up? Have you had a lot of breakage from jumping etc? Heard the gears can be a weak point?
Dearest Gav, the Basher RC scene seems very big at the moment. Kyosho has also done one, could it be something you could feature on your show? :) it is this one:
Kyosho Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro
It’s possible 👍🏻
awesome :) @@RCKickschannel
i just ordered this, and it does not say what connector it comes with.
What plug does the Arrma senton use?
The car comes with an EC5 connector so you should use a battery with an EC5 connector. You can also use an adapter but remember that you may lose a bit of performance and runtime.
Can you use the original transmitter with the brushless or have to upgrade as well?
Yep I think you can
Yep you just need a spektrum receiver
So if I do the upgrade I need to get a new receiver and transmitter? Or can I use the original one?
I think you can use the original ESC receiver combo just as a receiver (check the online manual first to confirm 100%) so you can keep using it and upgrade it later 👋 for budget is limited. 👍🏻
@@RCKickschannel thanks bro, I'll look into that 👍
@@RCKickschannel UPDATE: The newer Arrma Senton 4x4 Mega 550 with the SLT3 transponder has a standalone receiver and does not require you to buy a new trans/reci set-up when you install the Arrma 3s blx Boost kit 👍
The senton is one of the easiest rc to work on
So can I swap the motor without making it 4wd ??
Just add the brushless kit no need to add 4wheel drive
Dose the metal spur gear come with this?
No, you have to upgrade it if I remember correctly
@@RCKickschannel ahh cool I’ve orderd the brushless upgrade so I’ll need to order the metal spur I thought it came with it
@@rhysmilligan4260It comes with the brushless upgrade boost box
@@RCKickschannel perfect mate great video I’ll watch again when fitting the upgrade
When are you picking up a Tekno SRT410 2.0?
No plans currently. I would like to get a Tekno on the show at some point as I’ve never built one
@@RCKickschannel : I wasn’t even sure you got Tekno in the UK. Tekno reminds me a bit of how LOSI started, as a small RC company who made parts and then started making really mcompetitive, highly engineered kits. I’m looking at getting a SCT410 2.0 to pair with my Kyosho Inferno MP10e buggy (since Kyosho doesn’t make anything else competitive).
1st!!!!
Your review wasn't quite so sympathetic to the Senton 😁.
Jan are you there yet sounds like an uncle would buy a nephew kind of thing it's like I love you here's your birthday party it's time to upgrade yali yali oxen free
You make enough money in the Raffle.. to supply a new battery.
How do you know?
I can't help thinking this is just a money grab. Get a Gorgon if you're young/new. Then sell and buy better if you want to upgrade. Duh!
I must get myself a Gorgon, I love the look of it
I can't help thinking you're not going to get enough money selling the Gorgon to buy 1/4 of the BLX version.
How does that work in your mind ?
Especially seeing as the brushed motor in the Gorgon is not going to last long or have significant resale value.
But you should go work for Arrma if you have all the best ideas, I'm sure you know more about the industry than some dumb decades-old company who DOESN'T make millions of dollars a year.
Keyboard Warrior strikes again, ladies and gentlemen give a big round of applause for the smartest man in the room: Jon "69 is the position for me" Hill
Now that everyone knows your favourite technique, we can all bask in the awkward glory of TMI-ville.
Creepy.
