Mojave vs Fireteam | Heavy Weight RC Car Comparison

[@robgoffroad]

I love my Fireteam! BTW a great mod for it are the M2C Racing ZRS shock caps... it eliminates the bladder and mostly eliminates the rear end's tendency to bounce upwards uncontrollably.

[@FarmerFpv]

Those are just emulsion caps. Hot racing has had them for a long time. They're not great for all-around driving. Integy piggybacks emulsion shocks are much better and have fully adjustable rebound and compression via knobs. You can turn the stock caps to emulsion bladderless shocks too. 4 x16mm O-rings then drill and tap a bleed hole on the cap.

[@wootwootjr]

@@FarmerFpv anything integy is absolutely trash. Opinion invalid

[@paulclancy2404]

1st person I heard say like integy shocks, good idea making own shock caps , I have some integrity stuff that wasn't bad slash chassis

Another solid comparison👍 A lot to take into account but you have given a ton of info to make a solid decision.

[@FarmerFpv]

I have both. I prefer the Mojave on a track with friends for some closed-wheel rubbing and racing and the Fireteam for some high-speed bashing.

[@chrisginoc]

How are they both holding up?

[@joshcraig1441]

I really like the comparison videos, you could do it with almost all the manufacturers. I would like to see more of these videos Thanks.

[@JoshDTech]

Well they were both on sale this year .

[@markmonteiro5961]

Just the comparison i was waiting for. Amain u r the best.

[@GreatLakesRC]

Have both, love both! The Fireteam is a bit more versatile especially for big air 🚀

[@chrischris6399]

Fireteam! Hankbrake is an awesome feature to have! and it looks better in my op

[@kinglolo88]

I love SCTs, so I got the Mojave v2. I've beat the brakes off that thing. One of the toughest rigs. That being said, my buddy has a fireteam.. also a tough rig. If you understand the strengths of each rc and understand how to drive them, you can't go wrong with either. Really it's up to your preference, but both are really fun.

[@myharryface]

Because your videos are so awesome, I drove quite a bit out of my way on a regular road trip that I make to see your store and track. A Main hobbies is awesome! Got some great advice on tires and picked some up. I look forward to visiting again soon. I wish you had a store near me. Brilliant.

[@AMain_Hobbies]

Cool! Glad you could come over and visit our shop and track. Hopefully some people were getting sideways with the drifters. Where were you coming from? -Brett

[@myharryface]

@@AMain_Hobbies Hi Brett! Thank you for the reply. I am regularly between San Jose CA and Medford OR. So your store is between but with a diversion. Totally worth it though. What an awesome store. Next time I am brining my Sledge with me and I want to run it on your track!! Would love to meet you.

[@tspoon5922]

I have both. Definitely different driving experiences. Very hard to pick my fav as I absolutely love them both 😍

[@anugroho1174]

I was thinking about getting a Mojave to add to my basher collection. Your video helped me make the final decision to go ahead and buy it. Thanks!

[@egiljo72]

Great comparison video, keep em coming 👍

[@VS666]

a Talion would have been another good one to compare these with, i've driven all of these and the Talion was the most fun, especially with all the EXB parts and belted tires. the mojave tires on a Talion are awesome too though

[@shaunodriscoll]

Wouldn’t replace my Mojave I love it! Great informative video as always, great stuff guys thanks

[@damaylaphoenix1155]

after a full year of running both , this is not a fare comparison. the fireteam is easily the best out of these two. for more power without any modifications put the kraton 8s gen 1 system in there. if in aint now it will elevate to your favorite RC

[@lillekenatnek195]

Both awesome RC's have the same green blx mojave and i must say dang ive had so much fun moments with it, great for ripping

[@MetalHeadRCGarage]

Great vid and comparison! 🤘🏻

[@zach.225]

I like this "VS' type of video, I'd be interested in comparisons of other trucks.

[@damaylaphoenix1155]

i have them both , the fireteam is the best especially on kraton tires . For offroad i like the backflips. i removed the rear brake , i will try it on a two wheel verison when i find a good use one.

[@RedRoxRc]

[@BMfins]

Fireteam is bad ass imo.

[@TRAVELER197]

Awesome video! 2 awesome RC's!

[@applefordguy76]

Love my Mojave 6s & 4s, the Fireteam will be my next Arrma machine. When I first saw it, I didn't care for the body either. But its growin on me!

[@drunkinmaster1]

Just putting this out there. The Fireteam body might be heavy, but it greatly contributes to the durability of it. I let my wife drive my Fireteam and she ran full speed into a light pole. She hit it so hard that the pinion gear flew off yet the chassis never bent at all.

[@collinmorris]

Exactly! People don’t realize the roll cage is functional! Also rollover nicely and usually lands back on all fours haha

[@turboman2019]

Had a Mojave exb with Spektrum 8s electronics,nearly impossible to control,fun but requires lots of skill,the Fireteam is my favorite,you can drive it like a jerk and still keep it in line,only thing I did to it was put a 21T pinion gear,it does wheelies at will,blindingly fast.

[@shaunsanford2253]

I've had the fireteam for a month and it's pretty good. Gets squirrelly but it's fun in the rough stuff. The bigger gear almost is unusable.

[@jackala67]

Mojave for me...the way it drifts on dirt is amazing...its not all about big air...now the udr looks better but u can only send it once then onto the operating table lol...

[@CKDezines]

Great detail. Thanks for putting it all together.

[@stormpup5649]

Can you give a shout out to rc boys

[@johnday4883]

[@chaoticadventure]

Fireteam is king!

[@EJ-74]

Imo the FT is a better basher like doing backflips etc but I'm more into racing and more realistic driving experience so I'd have to go with the Mojave 👍🏻

[@codenamethecleaner7519]

I love my fireteam, It was originally a kraton exb so I have the exb diffs, aluminum bulkheads and other upgrades, it’s a beast, handles and flies so well too, I like the Mojave but it jumps like crap, it parachutes like all sct.

[@zonegamma8197]

nice trucks, i prefer the fireteam

[@gaffle-411]

Mojave ftw but I like the white camo Fireteam too.

[@davida8407]

I hope there are some good bodies for the Fireteam in the near future. Still no good options that for correctly, although that F250 looked really good.

[@stinkmod2297]

hey i have a arrma senton but its the brushed version, could you do a video on brushless senton

[@reallythough4591]

Fireteam is the best driver I've experienced. I'm relatively new to rc, if you discount my neighbor showing off optima mids and turbo optima mids. Never got to run those. My vorza buggy rides better than my slash, original tmaxx electrified just likes to break plastic shafts. Fireteam body takes rolls and crashes exceptionally well, but it doesn't want to roll, even at speed.

[@farvatron]

Great video! Thanks man!

[@Tomason187]

Can the fireteam rear hand break be installed in the mojave and you need to start posting to Australia lol

[@waltergleaton7654]

The ebreak. Makes the fire team better then mojave but you don't need it the truck take conyers better then mojave without the ebreak it's less to roll over I like both if I had to pick fireteam more stable

[@jonathanboyer8723]

400 dollars for the fireteam on Black Friday, can’t beat that price

[@paulclancy2404]

Glad u say I just grabbed one wasn't sure I wanted exb diffs

[@truerc]

Have to disagree. Wider is better imo. Plus, Fireteam has much more tire options available. And then the biggest reason the Fireteam is better, the current price of $399 shipped.

[@SpoolinVR]

@@truerc I jumped on it at that price too right before Christmas.

Is there a different body for the fire team that will fit if so do u have a link for it thanks

[@jeffbarton4398]

Why's the talion like $200 more than the Kraton? 10 extra mph?

[@fmc7209]

The $150 bucks extra is due to the Talion being an EXB rtr, so more durable components when compared to the Kraton rtr. It also comes with a better transmitter

All you fireteam haters the man just toll you which one is better the mojave tends to roll over in sharp turns just like the udr.the fireteam is very responsive in conyers no flipping over ask me the fireteam is the udr and mojave all in one truck

[@jgrc73]

The Mojave doesn't roll in sharp turns that's what makes it the Mojave hates to roll over. I'm about to have both of them and don't have a preference but I love that the pick up kicks out the rear end before it flips. SC trucks don't normally do that.

Grabbed this when Arrma put it on sale for $399. I mean just fantastic of Arrma and Horizon when they do this for their fans. Just amazing price drop sales on their great vehicles unlike dumb Traxxas that gives free light kits on over priced vehicles….big whoop Traxxas….smh We just run and slide outs around on gravel and loose dirt. It’s just awesome!

[@ginabeltman2808]

can you do a review on the traxxas xmaxx

[@Fatt_Tony]

The mojave is my favorite. It's actually fun to drive!

[@Youworstnightmare77]

there is no comparison each rc is very different. In tires, chassis, body's there will be many people who like the fireteam. but with time. The same thing will happen to the already forgotten axial yeti xl. If you look closely it's almost the same design just for some different arrangements. In my case I have never liked that type of design. I have had bashers, scts drifting rcs drag rcs and the ones that I liked the most are the scts like the udr and arrma mojave and the super baja rey v1 and 2. and the baja rey 1/10 scale. There will never be a comparison in these two different designs. That's what I think in my humble opinion.🤷

[@santannaguzmansr.1107]

I have the Fireteam & Senton 6s. Love both & drive both equally to death. Lol

[@scuba6797]

I was about to buy the Mojave but I guess there's no snow tires for them.

How dare you suggest that we put a traxass body on an Arrma

[@keystoners2007]

Sry 2 years later have them all Kraton is still all around king.. Typhon Notorious and Mojave have broke the least.. Typhon actually seems to be a little beast I have broke nothing but rear wing.. but with all minor upgrades on all and having the exb versions the Kraton is just the most versatile an Fun truck IMO

[@ErocsRc]

Soooo what ur saying is we all need both... Ok On It!😅

[@asparagoosagus5954]

I wish the Fireteam could come with a different body. I'm not really personally a fan of the dudes with guns "fireteam" part of it, just not my thing.

[@Boogie_the_cat]

Yeah, no kidding. I'd buy the Mojave solely because you get a usable body out of the box. Fireteam looks dumb and offensive. I don't play with G.I Joes for 35 years now.

[@stevekeiron30]

So what about a Mojave with FireTeam A arms, shocks, wheels ect. Handbrake the lot. Surely it would be an absolute BEAST?!

[@Nathan-qt2zi]

It would literally just be a fireteam with a mojave body

[@surfside75]

It's possible to make 6s custom that is lighter then the Mojave or the fireteam while being just as wide and long. I'm doing it👍
