The ARRMA MINI KRATON 3S BLX 4X4 packs brushless power in a compact frame. PowerGuard lets you run 3S batteries at lower speeds for 50% more runtime, then unlock full 3S fury with the PowerKey. Tough, agile, ready to dominate.

  • Introducing the MINI platform. This small-scale, bash-anywhere size replicates the performance and durability of the larger scale KRATONS
  • Dynamic Stability Control as 4 selectable modes that automatically apply steering correction for easy, controllable stunt action
  • Fun and manageable 3S performance for pros and less experienced drivers
  • Includes 3S LiPo battery and USB-C charger

Overview
Half the size. Double the attitude. All KRATON.

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 colors. 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.
