The RC car Arrma Quake is a pure monster truck – big, aggressive with huge wheels and high ground clearance, which allows it to conquer everything. You can drive it full speed in terrain or on asphalt, jump, and overcome obstacles. The model is built on a new 4S Next Gen platform in 1:8 scale. The chassis is designed for maximum durability and simplicity. The model is equipped with 4x4 drive for excellent handling. A powerful brushless motor and Spektrum Smart controller allow for a driving speed of up to 80 km/h. To assist with easy handling even at high speeds, the model features electronic stability control DSC.
The basis of a real monster truck is a chassis designed for wild driving. The higher center of gravity allows for leaning in turns. The raised chassis provides greater ground clearance for driving in challenging terrain. Integrated wheelie wheels enable effective rear wheel driving. The tires with an aggressive chevron pattern dig into dirt, grass, and gravel, ensuring the necessary traction. Power is transmitted to all four wheels via a 4WD system with three differentials. The deep tub chassis made of composite material protects the electronics. The oil-filled aluminum shock absorbers effectively dampen impacts during jumps and landings. The rear arms are equipped with guards to prevent flying stones. A spacious battery compartment, a new top securing partition for the battery, properly routed wiring, and a connector holder for the regulator ensure quick and convenient battery changes. Additionally, a clipless body with rapid deployment contributes to this.
The Quake 4S car model comes with a included special electronic stability control function DSC, which automatically makes steering corrections for smooth drifting, easier control at higher speeds, and on less grippy surfaces. The stabilization DSC includes 4 modes based on the level of assistance, including the option to turn it off.
The model is equipped with quality Spektrum electronics. For effective cooling, both the motor and controller are fitted with a fan. Included is a three-channel transmitter Spektrum SLT3 2.4 GHz with adjustable motor power limiting. Thus, beginners can gradually gain confidence and utilize the full potential of the model as they gain experience. The waterproof digital servo S662 features metal gears and an aluminum steering arm with 25 teeth. It is protected from impacts by a servo-saver. To drive, a 3S or 4S LiPo battery must be added.
Pure monster truck
The high center of gravity chassis is tuned to behave like its real-life counterpart. Expect massive inclines in corners, lifting the front wheels vertically when accelerating hard, and jumps that look just as impressive as the truck itself.
Durable chassis
Extremely strong tub-shaped chassis made of composite plastic, interlinked shock towers, massive front bumper, and impact-absorbing braces are designed to withstand even the toughest hits.
Easy maintenance
A chassis with a low part count means fewer parts when disassembling, a smaller risk of losing anything, and most importantly, less time spent on maintenance between drives.
Driving stability (DSC)
An exclusive feature is the dynamic driving stability included in the Spektrum controller. Using integrated sensors, it makes steering corrections for easier control. The intensity of stabilization can be conveniently changed via the transmitter in four modes.
- High- maximum stability, ideal for beginners
- Medium – ideal for low-grip surfaces (gravel)
- Low- ideal for hard, high-grip surfaces (asphalt)
- Off – for experienced drivers
3 differentials
Power from the brushless motor is transmitted to the center differential and then to the axle differentials. This ensures an optimal level of slip and grip for excellent driving characteristics. Metal gears are used for reliable power transmission.
Drive system
The drive system is sealed to minimize dirt entry. The use of ball bearings ensures smooth power transfer across all rotating parts.
Oil-filled shock absorbers
For brutal driving over obstacles, the model is equipped with high-quality aluminum shocks and oil filling that prevents bouncing on uneven surfaces. The shocks feature a threaded body with a nut for easy spring pre-load adjustment.
Quick battery change
A spacious battery tray, a securing top partition with a ratchet mechanism, and a securely mounted connector for the regulator ensure that installation and battery changes are a quick matter.
Clipless body
No visible clips, no annoying fitting on body posts. The hidden clipless mounting system keeps the body securely in place, maintaining a clean, unobstructed appearance, while the integrated protective frame gives the car extreme strength.
Wheelie wheels
Step on the gas and enjoy the stylish ride on the back wheels thanks to the rear wheelie bar with wheels.
