Overview
You don't tiptoe into the world of monster trucks. You come in swinging. And the ARRMA QUAKE 223S BLX 2WD? It's your first punch — and it hits like a freight train made of thunder.
Right out of the box, the QUAKE brings everything you want in a brushless monster truck: ready-to-run simplicity, attitude that won't shut up, built ARRMA tough to take the hits, and the kind of raw power that only gets meaner as you do. It's 2S affordable and 3S capable, so you can start smart and send harder as your skills grow. No extra upgrades. No need to swap trucks. Just throttle up, hang on, and let the ground feel the aftershock.
ARRMA created the 223S series for new brushless bashers who aren't here to play it safe. With the QUAKE 223S BLX, you can drop in a 2S LiPo and tear it up at 35+ MPH — already fast enough to outpace the competition. Then, when you're ready to unleash full beast mode, slap in a 3S pack and you're launching past 50 MPH like a bottle rocket strapped to a boulder.
Worried about getting in over your head? Don't be. The included Spektrum SLT2 radio features a built-in throttle limiter that lets you tame the tremors. With the flick of a switch, set your top speed to 50%, 75%, or 100% — so whether you're teaching the next generation or just building up confidence, you can keep things under control until you're ready to unleash the chaos.
And when the dirt gets slick or the pavement throws curveballs, Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) has your back. Integrated into the QUAKE's Spektrum electronics, DSC helps correct your steering input in real time, giving you more traction, more control, and a whole lot less crashing. Choose from multiple levels of assistance or turn it off completely once you're driving like a legend.
This beast is built to bash anywhere. Off-road. Parking lots. Dirt tracks. Open fields. Heck, we wouldn't blame you for sending it down your neighbor's mulch pile (just don't say we told you to). Its wide stance and long-arm suspension give it a planted feel that carves through corners and flies straight and true. Perfect for new drivers, but wild enough for seasoned senders.
Under the body, the QUAKE is every bit ARRMA. Oil-filled shocks, metal-geared differentials, and a rugged composite chassis mean it's built for carnage and keeps coming back for more. Factory-installed Spektrum electronics are waterproof, so the fun doesn't stop when the mud starts flying. And the high-grip dBoots tires, mounted on tough-as-nails wheels, are ready to claw through any terrain in your path.
Crowning this beast is a brand-new monster truck body, with a bold new face that'll be a cornerstone character in ARRMA's future lineup. With molded details and battle-ready trim, the QUAKE doesn't just look the part — it lives it.
If you're ready to get loud, go fast, and make the ground shake, the 1/10 scale ARRMA QUAKE 223S BLX 2WD is your ticket to the action. Just add your battery and charger — and prepare to send shockwaves.
