Quake Grom Brushed

About the Quake Grom Brushed

A 1/18 scale monster truck built around Arrma's GROM platform — smaller than the standard Quake but sharing the same wide-tire proportions and durable composite construction. The brushed motor makes it accessible for younger drivers and keeps the price point low while still delivering hobby-grade construction and parts availability. The Quake Grom is designed for backyard and driveway bashing rather than technical driving. The large tires relative to the body size absorb impacts well, and the brushed motor is forgiving of inconsistent throttle inputs.

Key Specs

Who It's For

Young drivers or parents looking for a small hobby-grade monster truck that's manageable indoors or in tight spaces. Also works as an inexpensive second vehicle or loaner. The brushed motor means it's slower and safer than the BLX version — appropriate for supervised play in mixed settings.

Upgrade Notes

Battery life is short with the included pack — a higher-capacity 2S LiPo extends run time noticeably. The brushed motor is the limiting factor; upgrading to a lower-turn motor within the same ESC's range adds speed without replacement electronics. Stock tires are adequate for most surfaces.
