About the MOJAVE GROM
Aesthetics
The desert truck body arrives factory-finished in two exciting color schemes, capturing the unmistakable look and form of the original MOJAVE in a smaller scale. The dBoots Fortress tires provide all-terrain traction and are mounted on durable, color-coordinated wheels, ensuring both performance and style. The body snaps onto the chassis easily, quickly, and securely, coming off with a simple press-and-release. With no tiny clips to force into place, it’s a body attachment system that’s perfect even for young bashers.
Drivetrain
The enclosed drivetrain with rugged metal gears channels power from the MEGA 380 brushed motor to all four wheels, ensuring high traction and dependable performance on any terrain. The updated V2 differentials front and rear, enhanced with metal internal gears and cross pins to handle future power upgrades. Designed for carefree bashing in any condition.
Electronics
The Spektrum Smart 2S LiPo battery with IC2 connectors powers the MOJAVE GROM for long run times. When it's time to recharge, simply plug it into the convenient Spektrum Smart G2 S10 USB-C Charger for safe, automatic charging in about an hour.

I'm disappointed got the Mojave grom for my sons second truck thinking the upgraded metal diffs would last longer then his first truck the granit grom with plastic diffs.I pulled the Mojave truck out maybe got 15 mins of fun.. butt naw it's making this horrible grinding sound I ran through it and wasn't able to fined the problem.. I'm not to happy with my purchase at this point!
"Arrma tough" doesn't apply to the brushed Mojave Grom. Go ahead and buy the upgraded version, but be ready to put more into it as well. Set at 50%, my son has broken the servo saver, plastic rear diff gears and one CV. All on loose dusty dirt and gravel (low traction surfaces) in less than an hour of run time. Every time I upgrade a part and think, "ok, that should be it", something else fails. Also, don't expect to put the Hot Racing servo saver in without some significant reengineering. I have two of these and both now use the NSDRC servo and mini-b mount with the HR servo saver mounted "upside down" and steering reversed. That pretty much fixed the steering issues, except for the need for threadlocker to keep the servo saver from coming unthreaded. Also, go ahead and buy a good 25mm fan and attach it directly to the top of the heat sink. Otherwise you're going to cook the motor. Almost forgot, the orientation of the motor is perfect for having little rocks fall into the motor and jam it up as well. Is it fun? Yes, but.... I don't know how the people on YouTube abuse them like they do and get away with it.
Not a very good experience. I bought this for my daughter to play with and it lost a front cv axle. So I ordered arrma cvd part numbers ARA31126,ARA31127. And when trying to assemble i found the outdrive is stripped. And the shafts are not the correct length even though I searched for arrma grom mojave cvd shafts. Pretty disappointed as this is my first arrma purchase.
Car was for my son’s Christmas. We got it out as quick as we could had a blast before all the winter weather came in. Could not be happier so much fun so fast great for a new person in RC cars.
Muy bonito soy primerizo aún no lo podido usar mal tiempo y estoy mudanza
Reviews are mixed. Most reviewers praise the Mojave Grom's value, appearance, handling and ease of use, and several describe it as a good first RC or a fun, quick truck straight out of the box. Several reviewers report durability issues, mainly with the plastic-to-metal differentials, which some say fail quickly, along with broken servo saw parts, a lost CV axle, and a grinding noise. One reviewer reported stripped outdrive parts and incorrect replacement shaft lengths. Some owners say the upgraded diffs are easy to fit and that other parts held up well after the upgrades. Several reviewers note the weak points under rough use on loose surfaces and at 50% throttle, and at least one reports difficulty finding a problem. Two reviews are very brief or off-topic.
- + Good value for the price
