This is an insane price, $270 off one of Arrma's most popular RC vehicles. The deal runs through Nov. 27th. Reviews on this RC are extremely positive. It goes 60+mph and has a handbrake for drifting.

The 1/7 scale, ready-to-run ARRMA® FIRETEAM™ 4WD Speed Assault Vehicle gives the fast, tough 6S BLX platform an extra-long wheelbase, mechanical handbrake, and rugged military styling for an exciting new way to bash and blast over brutal terrain.
Exciting military styling with a full roll cage, multi-panel body, and detailed interior with driver and passenger figures
Special vehicle-specific wheel and tire package including multi-terrain dBoots® FIRETEAM™ airless style tires on military-inspired wheels
Extra-long wheelbase and wide-track suspension for dynamic handling
Spektrum™ 6S brushless power system capable of 60+ mph speeds
Factory-installed mechanical handbrake for performing evasive maneuvers and initiating drifts — a first for any ARRMA® off-road vehicle

Just think... If you got 4 you'd be able to save over $1000! I've saved tens of thousands ever since discovering SD! My problem is... I can't stop saving 😭
Son of a …. I'm never gonna save money.
If you are asking why this doesn't come with batteries and a charger you definitely don't need this lmao.

The $100 off Typhon is a way better deal and you won't need to spend $500 on a charger and two batteries.

A 5000mah 3s spektrum smart battery is $80 and you can get a decent charger for $55

Obviously the buggy that costs 2x as much is a better RC car. The 3s at 240 is a great deal.
My first RC was a Big Rock 3s BLX, it's been amazing, tough as hell. Our big dogs absolutely love chasing the thing around the yard like it's a wild hare, they get a hell of a workout every couple days, it's been great for them.

I was really surprised how fast the Amazon shipped, I ordered Friday, and it is already out for delivery today.

Picked up a fireteam off Amazon with the Asurion warranty for kicks. Ordered it yesterday on the second and it shipped and getting delivered tomorrow already. Anywho, already had two 3s LiPos so I figured I'd try one out. Really couldn't beat going 6s for $400.
I'd pick up another one. I believe asurion will only give you $400 amazon credit so I will pick up another while it is on sale. The parts are really pricy to repair

Just got mine and holy crap this thing is big. It's much much larger than I had anticipated... I mean, it is intense. I actually broke my fence the first time running it, ran a little long and it snapped one of the cedar planks in half lol. It has to be 50% larger overall than my Big Rock and 60% bigger than my girlfriends granite.

was that real? king cobra was cancelling orders with using the 5% off code so that can't be right. I do notice some hobby shops still have it at the 399 price even though it's expired

It was real for a bit. I placed the order with the 5% off on 11/25 and the order was honored ($379.99 for me). It did take a bit to ship out, though I was fine waiting. After 12/4 they had a bunch of promo codes via email/SMS for various dollar off amounts a few different arrma vehicles includes the Fireteam, typhon mega, typhon 3S and one other. They must have got wise to that additional 5% because with the new promo codes you could not stack the 5% on top of those.

My local Hobbytown said they bought extra at the lower price and will continue to honor it until that stock is gone. You may want to check around your LHS. i bought mine on 12/24
