It's nice to have a sensible graphic scheme rather than the zero-effort random jagged shards of color that Traxxas puts on most everything they do.

Been saying this for a while. Traxxas's quality is above average, they're good at their business and products. But they must have no department at all responsible for painting the rig's! 😅 Besides the trail trucks, which you get in solid colour schemes, everything else is painted with some shards of black and red/blue/orange/green. 😅 It must be a cheap way to go about it. :p

Great little truck. Now we can all afford a Mojave 👌🤣🔥

I can finally get one!

I happened to walk into my hobby store in Branford and they had the red version left. They sold out of them all in one day. I enjoy it. It’s a nice introduction to bashing.

It’s a nice truck but what kills it for me is the 2 in 1 receiver/esc. Why are we still putting these in hobby grade rc’s in 2024? It sucks because now if I want to change motor and esc to brushless I also have to change the radio receiver.

I always enjoy your reviews on vehicles. In my opinion you are one of the best if not the best on reviewing these vehicles.

Got mine yesterday, definitely making some cuts in the rear louvers

I'm super impressed with the quick evolution of the Grom platform.

Hands down one of the best RTRs arrma has made! Such a fun car I’ve enjoyed ripping it around! Super awesome Mojave!

The Grom series are all really good designs. There really aren’t any comparable cars on the market right now.

Yeah that'd be interesting. Then they really put some effort in explaining the price on the Grom series.

Gotta have one! Nice review as always, Greg!

I can see this added to my mid & post-MTB ride RC quiver. I mostly bring crawlers & trail trucks but this looks like great fun and good bang for the buck. 👍🏻

Shout out to Gallimods. At first I thought these might be a better size for their min-b track, but looks ok out there on the dirt. Let’s get a Mojave Grom race day going

What a cool little ripper. Like the body mounts!

I was waiting for your review, good thing you did it. I already ordered both colors

Can’t wait to get one!

Great machine 👏

Good stuff Greg, have a safe holiday weekend. Like button energized.

Mine is supposed to arrive on Saturday, looks like it will be a fun one!

The perfect backyard basher?

Im hoping for a Kraton Grom! Great video's! I always enjoy your reviews.

Definitely going to pick this up, I am a Traxxas guy so this will be my first Arrma vehicle. I want to see what all the hype is about!!

I don't think this specific car is going to show you what the Arrma "hype" is all about. I don't know your budget but imo I think the Kraton 4S can't be beat.

In my opinion the best looking Mini Short course

Yeah, if they come out of a gram Creighton, I’ll definitely be picking it up because I have the Creighton 4s and I love it

Omg I really want one ❤❤❤

The Mojave grom is awesome I really like the blue color, wonder if they will come out with mini infraction or felony? veen waiting to see when you was going to do a vid on the Mojave grom 😁 can't wait to get one!!

get mine tomorrow

I usually steer clear of little rcs had a bad time with FMS. But zi must say this little truck is solid. And the price is right.

Nice job, again. So, is the soft rear allowing the back of the chassis to slap. and is that why we see the back end hopping off the ground? My only concern is that these still use plastic outdrives. Arrma does offer upgraded sealed diffs for $45, but they're almost always out of stock.

Wow I love the look of this one! How does it drive compared to the other groms? Does the typhon handle better? Obviously the granite doesn’t compare.

Looks like it passes the Rez mud test, definitely gonna have to pick one up to pull around with a trx4m

Oh ya !

These Wheels, if they are available seperately. Do they fit on a Tamiya M-chassis or TT-02 for Rally :D i like the look but i#m concerned about hub clearance and size. (12mm hex is a good start).

Hey just wanna ask..does SLT 3 transmitter bind to the esc-rx combo in this truck? Because i dont really like the slt2 remote on my hand before

I installed a brushless system in mine yesterday and it pulls so hard to one side when I accelerate. I had to put the stock system back into it 😢 Still a fun lil truck but my Mini b handles sooo much better.

Hopefully arrma will make a mini kraton grom or a vortex grom

I want one. Just waiting for a local shop to get them in.

an outcast grom would be great

nobody's talking about how a Tamaya Sand scorcher body would be sick on these

Nice review! Are the dog ones plastic or metal?

Sold my 1/16 slash bc of the handling and was waiting for something to replace it. This might be it

Are the outdrive cups metal?

Want this but still waiting for my Typhon Grom in the UK ….. 🇬🇧 ordered in March and still no stock 😢

I wish their next one would be an Infraction or Felony Grom. Unless the NASCAR line from Losi is being counted (hoping they’re not though), either way I’ll be grabbing one of the Losi NASCARs either way lol

I need it

This or the granite grom for around the yard?

I know of the upcoming Losi stock car but perhap a Vendetta Grom next?

@a-guy1912

Ай бұрын

I've heard of people also wanting a Felony grom

They upgraded the diff gears on this version too

You should take the arms off the typhon from and put it on the Mojave and make it the first wide Mojave grom

How does it handle in the grass? I have a big yard but its all lawn.

Should I get this or the Latrax Desert Runner

@demoths

Ай бұрын

The latrax stuff is ancient at this point, and traxxass quality is.... well, not.

Looks good but are the axle stubs still plastic? Had issues with one of those causing bearings to bind on the Granite Grom. There are a few other things I wish Horizon would stop on these models though. The Smart batteries, sure it's cool but I wish they had standard balance plugs as well, I have no interest in buying another charger just for Spektrum stuff and the USB charger takes forever. The Radio needs a rework to how it handles steering trim and dual rate. the trim knob simply acts like you've turned the wheel a certain percentage so if you need a lot of trim to get the car going straight it also limits your overall steering in that direction which compounds worse if you adjust the dual rate down. Also, would be nice if they just had a separate receiver so you could swap the radio out if you wished without having to buy a new ESC. I own a lot of mini's it's getting annoying keeping track of all the radios, maybe make a cheap multi model radio for these SLT equipped models?

they should grom the limitless and the gorgon!

1/16 would be a better pick for the whole grom line imo

I’m hoping for an outcast

IC2 Plug, not an EC2. Thanks for the Info

What grom is your favorite?

Hasn't the Grom name been used?

1/5 Mojave? Let’s push an make suggestions An bring back 6s senton

I predict an Arrma Kraton Grom coming soon. Then an Arrma Felony Grom…. Maybe not the Felony, but I feel like there’s a Kraton Grom coming. What do you all think?

arrma brushed motors last like 2-3 batteries. they are terrible. i usually replace with brushless spectrum/castle setup

Good luck installing a brushless system in this.. it's pulls to one side when you accelerate.

Mojave grom race class anyone?

You have to let people know that the V2 diffs are NOT full steel gears, the 2 larger internal bevelled gears are still plastic and they strip even on the V1 stock diffs with full plastic internal gears. At least this model should have come with full steel gear diffs. I can't wait to review and test then upgrade mine though😅

My grom throttle is reversed and their support blows. My sons is fine and it is fun but getting support is like pulling teeth.

Very nice, little truck goes and handles very well and love that it stays clean inside but........there is always a but, it would be a winner if it were 1/12th scale, same car but bigger and maybe brushless but would take brushed with a 540 15t motor or 21t on 3s lipo, seems no one makes a nice 1/12 sct

A groom fireteam will be nice.

I just can’t like it 🤷🏼‍♂️ I mean for me if it’s not a pinnacle of performance 10th scale i.e. Tekno ET410.2 , or even 12 scale Losi mini B (original), or absolutely dangerous, like dangerous enough to crush a Tibia i.e. Arrma Mojave EXB or Mugen MBX8TR Eco, or even better, slice through a Femur like a GD Samurai, i.e. TLR 5T w Taylor 71 Supreme V2 or MCD RR5 Max Ultimate with MGM X3 (40Kw!!) combo… then it’s just not for me. 🤣 I’m fkn w you lol, grom isn’t for me but I’m not THAT picky

*partially metal geared diffs. All groms are getting a v2 of the standard diff. It features metal planetary gears but the sun gears and output cups are still plastic. The diff case is also still 2 piece so you can’t tune it with fluid like the fully metal upgrade diff. Imo for this price, with a brushed power system, we should get fully metal sealed diffs.

Everything arrma makes and has grom , boost , mega in their name doesn't worth your mnoey it gives less aand inferior in quality i tried i had the infraction mega it lived about a week before the esc cooked itself and cooked the receiver also just repair it to stock form with arrma/horizon parts would costs more in middle europe than buy a new infraction mega alltogether arrma overpriced their basic repair parts if it's even avaliable... it you want to buy arrma cars to for the top models wait for sales or jsut buy soem chinese ones which will be also liekly to fial but would be chepaer than the arrma spare parts and some chinese manufacturer has good parts avaliblity
