Overview

Go from budget-friendly basher to hard-core beast with your first remote control monster truck, the ARRMA GRANITE 4X2 BOOST 550 MEGA Brushed 2WD. This big RC truck is ready-to-run and easy to afford, with only a battery and charger required. But the included MEGA brushed power system can still send it to 30+ mph under optimum conditions, and the tough composite chassis takes on off-road, dirt, grass, parking lot, paved and asphalt surfaces all without breaking a sweat. If anything goes wrong, get back on track in a snap thanks to the easy-to-maintain modular design exclusive to ARRMA RC cars and trucks — every on-board component is instantly accessible. The included Spektrum radio also has what new drivers of fast RC trucks need. You can limit the throttle to 50% or 75% of full power until you’re prepared for extreme speed. Of course, you won’t be a new driver for long. The ARRMA GRANITE 4X2 BOOST 550 MEGA Brushed 2WD is ready when you are for monster truck RC action, amplified! It’s brushless-ready, so you caN easily upgrade to a 3S brushless motor system and go from bashing to all-out blasting. And with the 4X4 BOOST Transmission Upgrade Set (ARA210003, sold separately), the extra traction of 4-wheel drive is just ten minutes and three simple steps away!
