Awesome video excellent bashing session a very cool little rig definitely a problem with so many vehicles are difficult to get the batteries out of. Take care and keep up the great reviews
I ran mine on 3s the other day on the track and had to dial it back to 75% to keep it out of the pipes!! 2s is much better for the small track. It is an animal on 3s for sure. Mine is still the same noise level as it was in the beginning so I assume it is just the all metal drivetrain. I am really loving it so far!
It's really good on 2S! By the way, it's reassuring to hear from such a widely-known channel that three to five minutes is "plenty enough fun for a good time". I shall refer my wife to this statement of yours next time she suggests that three to five minutes is a little...quick.
On 2s still so much better than the Granite Grom it was not a good truck and this is good. The body clips a real pain, is a worry you cannot got it off fast. The Typhon that seems to be the best body to get off from the videos I have seen, but no seen the brushless version yet. Wow the battery time is very short for me a big issue as I do not have many small batteries.
You are such a bad influence on my wallet! LOL! Already wanted one of these (and a mini z which I ordered) That is quick on 2s, awesome review bud, keep up the excellent work!
I wanted one of these but was reading mixed reviews about the diffs being the weak link. Ended up buying a 2wd fury, didn't want to buy small lipos just for one truck. Kinda regret it in retrospect, I want a 4x4. And the fury, the servo turned out being straight 🗑️
I think the Mojave is a really fun truck but I do see what you're saying about the diff issues.but that aside I have had nothing but a big smile the whole time I'm driving it was more fun than I expected
The gear noise is coming from two different places. One of them is the input drive to the diffs, and I don't think that can be fixed. The other place is the pinion to spur mesh, which is insanely loose from the factory. The fix for that is to install the motor mount plate for the next smaller pinion (21T or K) AND just barely enlarge one of the holes. Either that or use the aluminum adjustable one from Hot Racing. You wind up with a way better lash and a little less noise. But that's only a half of a fix and I don't think the thing is going to self destruct if you run it as-is. Not for a while anyways. My $0.02
The noise that everyone is talking about the gears making noise is the axles being too long. I was sure it was the gears but once u pull the rear wheels up then rev it the noise goes away. I installed Hot racing mojave grom axles front and rear and the noise is 100% gone! So whoever has a grom brushed or brushless get Hot Racing axles which are beefier then the arrma blx axles too,the pin that connects the hub joint or whatever is called,well that pin is way thicker on the Hot racing one compared to tue BLX.
You probably could i just have a bunch of 2200s so thays why I have been using them also i drive full throttle most of the time with it that doesn't help my run time but really fun I love how it's slides
All of the GROMS look like so much fun! After I get thru xmas for my 5 kids I may have to pick one up! Thanks for another great video buddy!
It's making me want one I can't get over how well they handle they look great aswell 👊
absolutely brilliant 👍😀 fantastic trucks and off road adventure 😀😀👍👍😎😎
Thats the exact one ive got on my list for sure! Great vid bro. Cheers

Thank you, it's fun to drive and it's been a great truck so far just the body stuff really

"Most time it lands on it's wheels" is the best argument for me. 😂

Excellent review Brent! I may have to pick up a brushless one at some point!👍😊
Nice run around the bases.

Very nice truck just the issue with the body clip system, did you figure it out what scale is it?

Hey Brent, what a ripper! I have my eye on one of these 😊😊best wishes to you and the family 😉🙏😎

Thank you very much for the information I will hit Amazon and see if i can find them
nice rip showing it off! That on 2s is fast now I want to see it in the same spot on 3s!!! that blows when you can't get the body off.
👋😎
Very cool video!
nice review, thanks for sharing
Can’t wait for proline to make the Badlands for it. The BLX Typhon drives like it’s on rails with them. The Mojave is way more planted though.
I opened the diffs up right away. Always do this on rtr vehicles … Diffs are bone dry metal gears or not they shouldn’t b loud like that.
2s does look great but after 3s its can be hard to go back down to 2s 😊 get hooked on power 💪
The 4s mojave was hard to get the body off too guess the plus is it doesn't pop off by axadent 👍
Would be cool if Arrma make Notorious Grom Blx.
That would be a amazing idea
Flip around. Run on its back. Noise goes away. It's the dog bones hiting diff cups
You can fit a 3000mah Lipo in the Mojave
You probably could i just have a bunch of 2200s so thays why I have been using them also i drive full throttle most of the time with it that doesn't help my run time but really fun I love how it's slides
That run time sucks for someone with only one battery
I dunno how you are getting only 3 to 5 mins out of these things. Mine last at least 15 to 20 when ripping nonstop
This is the brushless version. No way you’re getting 15- 20, really? I’d say 10 max before power starts falling
