ARRMA VORTEKS MEGA 550 2WD Stadium Truck RTR Overview
Join the stadium truck racing fun with a ready-to-run basher built the way only ARRMA makes them - the VORTEKS MEGA 550 2WD. It's super tough, easy to handle, and fast enough straight out of the box to thrill first-time RC hobbyists and experienced drivers alike. The ARRMA VORTEKS 2WD is the most affordable hobby-quality 1/10 scale stadium truck available. And it's easy to upgrade with LiPo batteries and brushless motors whenever you're ready to take it to the next level.
The VORTEKS delivers more refined performance than any previous ARRMA 2WD vehicle, with the perfect combination of stability and agility. Its wide stance contributes to confidence-boosting control at any speed while racing in your backyard or at your local park. New drivers can take advantage of the easy handling to learn lines and precision driving techniques. Low and sporty, the VORTEKS 2WD lets you carve through the turns without slowing down. The specialized tread design of the all-new dBoots Dirtrunner ST front tyres makes it easy to jump and corner on rough surfaces.
If you're brand new to RC, the included Spektrum SLT2 2-channel radio helps you safely learn control skills by limiting maximum speed to 50% or 75% until you're ready to unleash it all. Blast through wet conditions without worry - the Spektrum 2-in-1 40A ESC/receiver unit and high-torque Spektrum S660 steering servo are both waterproof (see the VORTEKS instruction manual for details).
Proven ARRMA engineering gives the composite chassis the durability for bashing over punishing surfaces. The independent suspension, oil-filled shocks, and adjustable ride height combine to provide a smooth ride over uneven terrain. For unstoppable traction, the stadium truck's metal gear differential moves power from the installed MEGA 550 motor to the all-terrain rear tyres.
As you gain experience with your VORTEKS 2WD, you can also stretch its performance envelope by customizing it with option parts that are already available. Take advantage of its 2S LiPo-compatible Spektrum electronics to feed it LiPo power. The VORTEKS chassis has enormous potential to grow into a next-level RC bashing beast!

We want to ensure a smooth delivery experience for you, and here are some key details to keep in mind about our service.
- For orders exceeding £120, delivery is available exclusively to mainland UK addresses. However, orders below £120 can be delivered to outlying Isles and Northern Ireland, provided they meet specific criteria: they must be deliverable by Royal Mail, weigh less than 30kg, and fit within the dimensions of 61cm x 46cm x 46cm. Please be aware that certain highland areas may entail additional delivery fees, as couriers often charge more for these deliveries. If you reside in the highlands or any outlying regions, we recommend reaching out to us before placing your order to verify delivery options and any potential extra charges.
- Delivery is typically included in the price for the majority of our products, unless otherwise specified. However, please note that orders under £80 will incur an additional delivery charge. You can easily view this charge on the checkout page when finalising your purchase. We aim to maintain transparency in our pricing structure while providing you with the best possible service.
- Most orders will be delivered via either a next working day delivery service or within 2 working days, depending on your chosen service. Please note that for next working day delivery, the cut-off time is 12pm, and dispatch occurs exclusively on weekdays. However, certain items may have longer shipping times, and the expected delivery period will be clearly specified in the product listing.
- To streamline your order fulfillment process, please note that when your order includes items with varying shipping times, we follow this approach: If any item in your order has a longer shipping time, we will hold the entire order until all items are in stock. However, if certain items are expected to be restocked after a considerable delay, we offer you two options. You can choose to wait for complete fulfillment, where we'll dispatch the order once all items are back in stock. Alternatively, you have the option to receive a partial delivery, where we'll promptly send you the in-stock items and deliver the remaining items as they become available. Your satisfaction and convenience are paramount, and we strive to accommodate your preferences for multi-item orders.
- To ensure efficient delivery, we work with trusted carriers: DPD Local for next working day delivery and Royal Mail for the 2 working days option.
- After dispatching your goods, we'll promptly send you an email containing the parcel's tracking number. To ensure you stay updated conveniently, kindly provide a valid mobile number, which we will add to the consignment. This way, you can receive real-time updates on your mobile phone for added convenience.
- For listings specifying a shipping time of "Dispatched within 3 working days," please note that orders under this category will typically be delivered within a timeframe of 3 to 5 working days.
