Hobby-Grade RC Monster Trucks
These aren’t your typical Walmart RC monster truck toys. Toy-grade trucks break easily and are not upgradeable. However, 2WD and 4x4 hobby-grade RC trucks can be repaired and upgraded to match your favorite truck, whether that truck is a Monster Jam truck like the Grave Digger or a street machine like the Toyota Tacoma and Chevy Blazer.
When you are ready to make those upgrades, our expert customer service representatives are there to help you make the best decisions for your truck. You won’t get that kind of help when you purchase a remote control truck from Amazon or eBay. Whatever you call it, remote control monster truck or radio control monster truck, the fact is that these RC trucks are some of the coolest available.
RTR RC trucks come in many sizes, from 1/16 and 1/10 scale for beginners to 1/5 and 1/8 scale for more advanced radio control users. With average speeds from 20 to 35 mph, RTR bashers are super fun right out of the box.
The Traxxas Stampede is an excellent example of an electric 1/10th scale RTR monster truck that is easy to use and has tons of factory replacement and after-market parts for those new to RC. The Arrma Kraton may be better suited for more experienced RC bashers. With its 1/5 6S to 8S power, it is one of the fastest RC monster trucks on the market today. It comes in a 1/8 scale extreme bash roller version if you are ready for the challenge, and a 1/10 scale option for a great introduction to the excellent line of Arrma RC cars and trucks.
