1/10 QUAKE 223S DSC 2WD RTR Brushless Monster Truck, Green 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.

2S & 3S READY

You want options? QUAKE delivers 'em on a silver platter of horsepower. This beast doesn't make you choose between tame and insane — it gives you both. Start with a 2S LiPo and blow past the competition at 35+ MPH. Feeling brave? Strap in a 3S pack and blast into 50+ MPH territory like a monster truck on a warpath. And thanks to the Spektrum SLT2 radio's built-in throttle limiter, you can dial it down 'til you're ready to unleash full chaos.

DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC)

Worried about sending it too hard too soon? Don't sweat it. QUAKE's got your back with Spektrum's Dynamic Stability Control (DSC). Whether you're ripping on slick blacktop or loose gravel, DSC auto-corrects your steering to keep you in command. Four selectable modes give you the grip, control, and confidence to learn the ropes before going full savage. Master the monster. Then shut it off and show the world what you've got.

SUPER TOUGH TRANSMISSION

The QUAKE's got guts — and they're built to brawl. Its factory-assembled, metal-gear differential sends power from the beastly Spektrum 3660 4000Kv brushless motor straight to the rear wheels, ready to churn dirt, shred terrain, and chew up everything in its path. Sealed and protected, this drivetrain isn't scared of carnage — it craves it.

SPEKTRUM 2.4GHz SLT2 TRANSMITTER

The SLT2 radio is your personal monster-taming remote. Whether you're tearing it up on 2S or lighting it up on 3S, the throttle limiting feature lets you choose how wild your ride gets — 50%, 75%, or full send. It's like a leash for a wild animal... until you decide to let it go. Bonus: four AA batteries are included, because we don't do half-sends.

SPEKTRUM ELECTRONICS

Rain? Mud? Puddles of unknown origin? Bring it on. The QUAKE's Spektrum electronics are waterproof and ready to roll through the rough stuff. The 2-in-1 45A ESC/receiver unit and S681 metal-geared digital servo aren't afraid to get dirty — they were born for it. (Refer to the manual for waterproofing specifics, because even monsters have limits.)

BOTTOM LOADING BATTERY TRAY

Pop. Drop. Roll. Battery swaps on the QUAKE are fast, simple, and body-free. Just hit the latches, drop in your pack, and you're back on the throttle before your friends finish re-taping their Velcro. No more fumbling. No more excuses.

STRONG SPINE COMPOSITE CHASSIS

The QUAKE's composite chassis is all backbone, no nonsense. It's built tough, sheds dirt like a champ, and keeps things lightweight so more power goes to the wheels and not into hauling around dead weight. You get durability without the drag. Just how Nitro likes it.

ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION

Built to bounce and blast. QUAKE's all-terrain, oil-filled coilover shocks soak up landings like a pro wrestler takes chair shots. Got uneven ground? Dial in your ride height and gain the clearance you need to send it clean — no scraping, no slowing down.

MONSTER TRUCK BODY

That body? Yeah, it's new. And it's mean. The QUAKE introduces a bold, battle-ready look that's here to stay — a cornerstone character with molded detail and that patented “get out of my way” stance. Clipless body retention means no pins to lose, and the battery swaps without taking it off. But when you do need under the hood, it pops off clean like a boss.
