These have been out for a little bit but I saw a friend on Instagram gram a couple, so I grabbed one for my daughter and myself. I liked them so much I ordered 6 more and I think I’m going to start giving them to my customers! These little guys are rippers and can take a beating, move quickly and are nimble. They are built tough and look awesome right out of the box. When I was a kid we had crap that couldn’t even turn one direction and now at 45 these little things can do so much. This is a great time to be alive!!!! Arrma is an awesome brand, thank you guys for making such an amazing little machine!
Let me start by saying this was worth every penny at $229. For $269, no. The value was half the fun. I’m afraid now you’ll be wishing you spent the money on something bigger, and hopefully not a Horizon product. Horizon increased prices across the board because of the tariffs, however I highly doubt if they were forced to disclose how much the tariffs affected them that they could justify a $40 price hike on this rig. That’s just pure greed. Horizon is taking advantage of the tariffs, offsetting their cost to pay them, and price gouging behind the curtain. Aside from that, the Mojave Grom is tons of fun. But you’ll be wishing you saved for something bigger, and the value is no longer there in this small of a SCT. Bottom line, it’s not worth nearly $300 after taxes. It just isn’t, and I wouldn’t buy it again.
The truck is pretty cool. I love it! It drives well, looks even cooler and has a pretty solid shell. The included battery is a complete joke though. I didn't think you can even get 10 mins of drive time. And spektrum doesn't even make a larger ic2 battery so you'll need to go aftermarket of you want more time. It floors me how much time went into designing the truck with the stability control and button release so have such a garbage battery system.
Awesome truck and WOW fast. We are having a lot of fun running it. It looks like my wife needs one too.
The truck is every thing I thought it would be.and the customer service is great. Very speedy delivery
Reviewers broadly praise the Mojave Grom's speed, acceleration and durability, with several noting the reinforced body survives rolls and jumps and that it performs well on dirt, driveways, carpet and skate parks. Some owners report the included battery gives short runtime, and the included 2S setup is described as adequate by others. The main recurring complaints are price (several feel the $229 to roughly $269 cost is high for the value), rapid tire wear, body mounting towers that can strip or let the body fall off, and dirt getting into the suspension and hard-to-reach areas. Small tires limit clearance on rough or grassy ground. Shipping speed and customer service were mentioned positively in some reviews, while one reviewer was still waiting on delivery. Several reviews are short and non-specific.
