I like it. I have a few Arrma cars with the 2 in 1 ESC/Receiver (Gorgon for one) and honestly I don’t mind it so much. I mean, is it top of the line quality, probably not. But, it’s functional. And for guys like me in the hobby since I was a kid, who just lightly blast and bash for fun, this is sufficient. I realize hard core RC guys who are in the hobby for top performance and racing in leagues, etc, this just won’t cut it. But for the average Joe like me, it’s fine. That’s how they keep the prices down. I love this thing. Great video, Mark.
I love my first gen vorteks 3s 4X4, slides on the street handles great plus best basher ive owned, backflips all day. I had my transmitter go bad and had to replace tx/rx with this new 2 in 1 ESC it would cost like five times as much to replace those parts.
when you are trying to do flips, make sure that the DSC is off. also i think arrma throws larger gears in here to hit their top speed claims, put a smaller one and you'll get rid of that cogging issue.
@Donnieburger80 I held off the old one to wait for a centre diff version. If the 2 in 1 esc gives me problems, I'll just put a hobbywing in it. I'd much rather have a centre diff.
They look great but we have have the previous vortex (boost and 3s) the 3s does back flips, wheelies and with right ramp a double ...interesting. im wondering if that update will fix the difference
I’m fairly new to the hobby. I got a Typhon Grom BLX and Granite 3S BLX. I’m really beginning to hate body clips. I’m sold on this one for the clipless body, but that aside, I think I like the way the Granite drives better.
Great video man I love my v3 vorteks and I agree it is capable everywhere. I think the v3 had a better radio and speed controller but I like the new 3s arrmas
Love my V1 Vorteks.. I added Typhon Arms and MX28 Badlands to it but now Im missing the true stadium truck vibe.. Im going to change out the wheels for something more standard and go for the HPI Nitro MT Racer look..
Totally just Want to say Hi.!! See y'all in person soon.!! I'm up to 12 rcs ever since the promoto drop. I'm a superfan since your semi local...Unlike Tomley.. But I love their voices over seas gives me a extra giggle.!! Anyways Thanks Again.!! Team MSM FTW.!!!
Ya pretty cool i like the looks wonder if u can adjust the punch and stuff on it that would be the only thing that i wouldn't like if u cant adjust stuff but other then that sweet car ...
Help guys...i purchased last 2weeks ago Vortex 4x4 clipless and i noticed that it overheat. first thought its low battery bit when i change my battery still no punch trottle and blinking red led..😢😢...
Dude, what part of the world do you live in. I have zero desire to go to the USA, but that place looks gorgeous and could be somewhere pretty in Austria
That throttle response is a bit disappointing. It would be interesting to know if the update fixes that, or even dialing back the DSC? It would prevent damage to the diffs, but wheelies are fun and all cars should do wheelies!
I’m wondering if the previous version of the Vorteks was better. It had a better radio with it and I think receiver. Mine goes right off the line. Wheelies like crazy! If this is the new vorteks it looks disappointing compared to the older one.
It's like... "who's paying Mark today?" in your reviews!!! 😅😅😅😅😅 because, you know, secret payroll. 😉 thanks for not telling us all to kick rocks and keep the vids coming, buddy!!!!
The rc industry took 3 steps back with these cheap alieexpress 2n1 escs...if the receiver fails then both need to be replaced. Cheaper components to increase their profit.
@10:52 He's literally having a hard time, trying to take the body off, as hes talking about the truck and says nothing about that shitty body mount mechanism.............Pfffft.
The Vortex Boost was my first car when I got back into the hobby and I still love it.

2 in 1 ESC is a letdown, not an upgrade
Mark, man youve been opening alot of boxes lately! I like it!
I love my first gen vorteks 3s 4X4, slides on the street handles great plus best basher ive owned, backflips all day. I had my transmitter go bad and had to replace tx/rx with this new 2 in 1 ESC it would cost like five times as much to replace those parts.
Bro I guessed it before you took it out of the box I have 70+mph vortex love it and it runs on 4s

I told myself no more rc purchases. Well I changed my mind. Vorteks looks awesome. Thanks arrma and MSM
Get the old version.
@gabemiller9873 thanks I will look for the older vorteks version. I've been hearing a lot of negatives with the 2 in 1 esc
I told myself that also but I ended up buying the Traxxas Ford raptor xrt xmaxx and mini maxx 😂
@@gabemiller9873 why?
@Donnieburger80 I held off the old one to wait for a centre diff version.
If the 2 in 1 esc gives me problems, I'll just put a hobbywing in it.
I'd much rather have a centre diff.
Awesome livery 😊
I really want the green 223 Typhon. And this in the purple. 👍🏻
Be a good Christmas gift
Hi great video again I watch all your vids and always fun keep going I have a few rc’s I have got after watching you reviews .
They look great but we have have the previous vortex (boost and 3s) the 3s does back flips, wheelies and with right ramp a double ...interesting. im wondering if that update will fix the difference
Good evening brother enjoy the weekend cool car nice review I like the set up

The Vorteks will have better handerling as the new 223s 1/10 range have centre diffs.
The new Granite if it releases should also get a centre diff.
Bill OxiQueen is a tool thanks!!!
Niiiice i have the Mojave Grom Blx Black & Bronze on the way & then gonna get the Vortex & Kraton 6s Blx ARMA'S KILLING IT 💯💯
Great video man I love my v3 vorteks and I agree it is capable everywhere. I think the v3 had a better radio and speed controller but I like the new 3s arrmas
Love the arrma vorteks. Whered you get that ramp?
Love my V1 Vorteks.. I added Typhon Arms and MX28 Badlands to it but now Im missing the true stadium truck vibe.. Im going to change out the wheels for something more standard and go for the HPI Nitro MT Racer look..
Seems like slipper is loose or too thin center diff fluid? Not sure what these have.

I have three of the four you listed on the way. I just didn’t order the new fury. I figured the Senten looked very similar
Looks insane I wound buy one
Aweman i need to get one
Great video
Ya pretty cool i like the looks wonder if u can adjust the punch and stuff on it that would be the only thing that i wouldn't like if u cant adjust stuff but other then that sweet car ...
Off subject, but what watch are you wearing, Mark? Looks cool😊
Kool spot
Help guys...i purchased last 2weeks ago Vortex 4x4 clipless and i noticed that it overheat. first thought its low battery bit when i change my battery still no punch trottle and blinking red led..😢😢...
Did you manage to programme the 223S esc's with the smart programmer? That sucks it you can't, I'd like to adjust the bec for that servo.
Dude, what part of the world do you live in. I have zero desire to go to the USA, but that place looks gorgeous and could be somewhere pretty in Austria
Patiently waiting for Gorgon 223s!
That throttle response is a bit disappointing. It would be interesting to know if the update fixes that, or even dialing back the DSC? It would prevent damage to the diffs, but wheelies are fun and all cars should do wheelies!
Does this have a slipper or center diff? It looks like the newer center diff housing like the kraton
its center diff
When does it release?
That looks like a very random place in Spain.
What you think. Can we wait Arrma Granite 223s?
Maybe centerdiffs should have a little thicker fluid in it.
Sorry to ask, new to the hobby. What effect would that have?
@ElProfeMoto that would change the difference in frontnd rear wheelspeed. It transfers power in another way. So it will pull wheelies more easy
All i want to know is are we getting swaybars as an option?
No one seems to know the answer.
Still waiting on the Granite v4 to be announced..
How fast is it
I’m wondering if the previous version of the Vorteks was better. It had a better radio with it and I think receiver. Mine goes right off the line. Wheelies like crazy! If this is the new vorteks it looks disappointing compared to the older one.
A 2 n 1 ? Come on its 2024 almost 25,geez
And your issue is? There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Buy it, try it and stop bitching 🤪
It's like... "who's paying Mark today?" in your reviews!!! 😅😅😅😅😅 because, you know, secret payroll. 😉 thanks for not telling us all to kick rocks and keep the vids coming, buddy!!!!
I thought you didnt get any arrma or traxxas stuff for free
Hmmm looks like a MAXX
Comment for the algorithm
Anyone else think it looks like a or reminds you of a Rustler??
well it is considered the rustlers competition.....
My rusty would piss on that thing. I did have a v1 vorteks….
Every new Arrma unboxing looks the same as the last one 🤷🏻♂️

First 😂
second
Just doesn't impress me much, also the 2 in 1 to me is too toyish. Real RC guys like the option to change radios without spending a ton.
Real rc guys only build their cars out of wood 🤜🤛😎🤯
First
Shocks look cheap
Seen you can't tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth , I'll say it for you , it sucked right out the box 🤣🤣🤣 .
@10:52 He's literally having a hard time, trying to take the body off, as hes talking about the truck and says nothing about that shitty body mount mechanism.............Pfffft.
2-1 esc's probably going to be a deal breaker for a lot of us....
