ARRMA Typhon Grom 223S BLX Brushless Buggy

By: Tim Gluth

The small-scale R/C genre is having its moment in the sun. Several new models have been released this year, bringing new levels of excitement to the 1/18 and 1/24 sides of the hobby. For fans of go-fast buggies that are built for action, ARRMA has rolled out its Typhon Grom in a new, brushless configuration.

The Typhon Grom 223S BLX Brushless 4x4 Buggy features more power and smoother performance than its brushed cousin, the Typhon Grom MEGA, all thanks to its Spektrum 2838 4500kv brushless motor and LiPo compatible ESC.

Capable of handling both 2S and 3S LiPo batteries, the Typhon Grom 223S BLX is a ready-to-run R/C buggy that should bring plenty of excitement to the track, backyard, and everywhere in between.

Three body color options are available (silver, blue, and red), letting you keep track of who is who when you run with friends or family. The silver model is solid as a vehicle and controller-only package, while the blue and red models include a 2S Spektrum Smart battery and charger.
