A fluffy Arktos Refresh – we shall call it the V1.5

Our critics have and continue to speak about the versatility and fun level of
the Arktos 6x6. Most recently, it topped the list of best crawlers under $200 on
the ever-popular Do U RC channel. With over a year on the market, the
accolades keep pouring in. So, while the new V1.5 hasn’t changed much, we
wanted to take the time to keep up with the latest electronic conveniences of
the FlySky system as well as make a few small updates so we continue to
spark this type of comment - "The most fun I've had with an RC in absolutely
ages."

The latest in FlySky technology/configuration allows for the existing
transmitter and receiver to be integrated seamlessly with a brushless
ESC/Motor. This eliminates the need for a new standalone receiver or a new
transmitter. It’s a simple aux input in the receiver that allows for this seamless
transition. All the brushless system is an easy plug and play upgrade
without changing any lighting wiring require.

Two new colors to choose from – tan and green, along with super soft 60mm
MT tires wrapped around blacked out beadlock wheels. While rolling on a new
look, the all metal transmission gears have been updated and give longevity
our users have come to know of the Evo Transmission.

The complete Arktos package continues to lend itself well to the curiosity
of the consumers. Curiosity in the remote two-speed transmission, remote
operated LED lights with 5 modes, a remote working rear recovery winch,
deployable and storable access ramps, a versatile flat bed with pivoting bed
side rails for larger loads and adjustable wheel chocks, a hard body that
consist of fine crisp detail throughout including retractable side mirrors,
windshield wipers, sun visor, side marker lights, blinkers, low/high beams, LED
offroad light bar, bull bar and tinted windows.
The curiosity only increases when the sharp departure and approach
angles are super generous for those impossible obstacles, a portal axle high
clearance axle design that clears more debris than it should, a solid HD
driveshaft system with a high torque 280 motor that propels the 6x6 up and
over the most extreme ascents and all controlled by an anti-sway bar, oil-filled
coil over spring shocks, super low gear ratio, and a strong metal gear 1.5kg
servo. The Arktos truly is a unique offering that continues to surprise the new to
RC consumer and the RC veterans, alike.
