ARRMA Big Rock 3s: Still an AWESOME RC Car in 2024?

This is the ARRMA Big Rock 3s v3!

I have heard so much about this truck and I wanted to see if it's still relevant in 2024 as a worthy 3s basher!

I have reviewed all of the ARRMA 3s BLX range apart from this one and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about.

These trucks are capable of 50mph+ with gearing upgrades and I think due to the big Rock 3s being wider and longer wheelbase it will handle that way better compared to the Vorteks and granite 3s BLX.

The 3s BLX Platform has been around for a while now and its proven to be one of the best and easiest platforms to work on making them an ideal intermediate option for a lot of people getting into the RC Car hobby.

There is serious competition in the 1/10 RC truck world with so many excellent options out there like the Team Associated Rival MT10 and ideal beginner truck the Maverick Quantum 2 flux so is the Big Rock worthy of being an excellent option as well?

Today we find out!

Let me know in the comments what you think and do you agree that this is still a really good option in 2024 as an all out RC Basher?

See you on the next one!
