Infraction 223S BLX 1/8 Brushless 4X4 RTR - Black/Red

The ARRMA Infraction 223S is a 1/8 street basher built for fast runs, controlled slides, and both paved and rougher road surfaces. With stability control (DSC) and 4WD, you get plenty of grip and confidence up to around 105+ km/h on 3S with the speed pinion.

Features

• 1/8 4WD mid-motor street basher (RTR)
• Powerful 3400KV brushless motor
• Top speed up to approx. 105+ km/h with speed pinion (on 3S LiPo)
• Spektrum DSC (stability control) for controlled drifting and high-speed driving
• Strong drivetrain with metal differentials, steel input gears and dual rubber-sealed bearings
• Waterproof steering servo with metal gears
• Transmission overload coupling: protects the drivetrain, no slipper clutch tuning required
• dBoots Hoons belted all-road tyres for asphalt, gravel and mixed surfaces
• Modular design for quick access to diffs, drivetrain and electronics

Overview

The INFRACTION 223S is made for anyone who takes street bashing seriously, but still wants to stay in control. It hits that sweet spot: faster and more aggressive than many 1/10 models, without jumping straight into a 6S setup. Parking lots, industrial areas and rougher roads become your test track—hit the throttle, break the rear loose, and keep the slide clean and controlled.

The key difference is the stability control (DSC). With four selectable modes, the system automatically corrects small steering errors, making it easier to drift, stay stable at higher speeds, and learn the car faster. It’s great if you’re stepping up to 1/8, and just as fun if you already have experience and want consistent, predictable slides. And if you prefer full manual control, you can simply switch DSC off.

Under the body, the Infraction has clearly been upgraded as well. The drivetrain uses metal differentials, steel input gears and rubber-sealed bearings. The transmission overload coupling absorbs shock loads and protects the diff gears without any slipper clutch tuning. That means less setup work, more driving, and more confidence when launching hard on high-grip surfaces.

The dBoots Hoons belted tyres complete the package: strong traction on asphalt, but also usable on gravel and mixed terrain. Add your own 2S or 3S LiPo, choose your pace with the speed limiter, and you’ll quickly see why a fast street basher is so addictive.
