Arrma Granite

The Arrma Granite is the 1/10 4X4 monster truck that most people meet Arrma through - tough, simple to run and easy to learn on without worrying about it. It has been in the range longer than almost anything else, which means parts are everywhere.

Which version?

• Granite Mega 665 - the brushed version. Slower, and the sensible first Arrma. Plenty quick enough to be fun while you learn.
• Granite 223S DSC - brushless, with DSC telemetry on the transmitter. A large step up in speed for drivers who already know what they are doing.
• Granite Grom - 1/18 scale, 4WD. Same character in a size you can run in a garden or a car park, and easier to repair.

What DSC means. Dynamic Servo Control puts a small screen on the transmitter so you can adjust steering rate, throttle profile and other settings without plugging anything in. It is genuinely useful when tuning a car to a driver.

Granite or Big Rock? Both are 1/10 4X4 monster trucks on related chassis. The Big Rock has the wider, more road-going stance; the Granite is the traditional monster truck shape. Little between them mechanically - pick on looks.

For more speed, see the Kraton. For a buggy instead, the Typhon.
