ARRMA Mojave 6S BLX 1/7 Scale Desert Truck Torture Test - 4S & 6S

Is this the best truck ARRMA has made so far?
After having one very lengthy and serious bash with the new ARRMA Mojave 6S, I have pretty much fallen in love with this monster Desert Truck-Style Beast! As an all-out-bash-truck, the Mojave delivers in almost every aspect of what we (bashers) need from a RTR. Fast, tough, great handling and the ability to put a smile on your face when you didn't expect it. Well, it's not that I wasn't expecting this truck to be good, but it just took me by surprise and I just wasn't expecting it to be THIS good. Even on just 4S and the stock gearing, the Mojave delivers buckets loads of joy right in the feels.
With all that said, I'll let the video do the rest and you can make up your own mind. Do you think it delivers on all fronts or do you still prefer one of ARRMA's other trucks?
Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy the video. :)

And how could I forget to mention.... that was probably the coolest front flip I’ve ever seen. Luck or not bro. You have skills and it was performed flawlessly. Bravo Vas! Just awesome!!

[@SpeedSyko]

I agree!

[@wiiftw]

That front flip was mega

[@andrewengland8021]

Agreed, I immediately looked through the comments for this

[@rosslee5427]

Man that thing is insane. Arrma has totally nailed it with truck. A UDR would be in pieces after a bash like that. So tempted now to add one of these to my collection.

[@rosslee5427]

@@christopherkerr8112 Yeah I have seen the Tekno MT-410 they are awesome trucks. I have a Thunder Tiger MT4G3 which is also a pretty awesome basher. Was looking for a SCT style truck but wasn't a fan of the UDR solid rear axle setup. You have to admit this Mojave absolutely rips in this video its a beast.

[@rosslee5427]

@@christopherkerr8112 yeah have seen some videos of that truck they can take a beating.

[@MolocHlevel30]

The mohave just looks better

[@ElteeMullet]

Id go SBR. It will take a beating better than any other desert truck, it also has massively better stock electrons. This thing has a cheap 8th scale hobbywing quicrun, a SBR has a max6 with a 1/5th scale motor..... Being that they are close in price, its not even close as to which one someone should buy.

[@rcbullshit7859]

No doubt bro!! if you breathe on the UDR wrong it falls apart LOL

[@SavvyCK]

That one jump was sickest rc jump I've ever seen!

[@Rickst3r_FPV]

Thanks for your honest reviews. i instantly ordered a mojave after watching this and i would never give it back. when i go out for a blast, this truck amazes me every time again.

[@rickythrower5892]

So glad I bought this ARRMA Mojave, you are sick with it bro!

[@derka5581]

I wasn't really into this truck ..Till this video.

[@danielantonello4088]

Same. I was sold on the Keaton but all I want to do is cut some laps and some smaller jumps. Not massive hits. So I think this is for me.

[@mojaverc1585]

Daniel Antonello even if you want to, the Mojave can do massive hits, and take it.

[@ELValenin]

@@mojaverc1585 it takes hits better than the Kraton but it's a lot harder to control in the air

[@mojaverc1585]

EL Valenin to me what makes the mojave the most special is that you have to actually try to drive it right, because if you don’t it won’t. What I mean is, it is very unforgiving to your mistakes. If you don’t jump right then it could parachute and you have less control to fix it in the air, turn and put the power on at the wrong time, and it could roll, and so on.

[@petechipps9770]

Vas has a way of doing that. Making us look differently at trucks we would normally bypass. Way to go Vas. You cause me to spend more money. Lol 👍👍👍

[@jacobhungerford4206]

That first big flip was awesome

[@RCDUDE81]

😛😂FREAKIN AWESOME run Vas!!! 4s was cool but 6s you went bonkers with her!! Killer back flips!! "Front flip Eric"....😂Challenge accepted!!!😜Thanks for the mention!🤗Amazing what this truck will do for a 1/7 scale short course truck! It's AMAZING! But you can tell, nothing stops it! I love how it is very balanced and wants to stay on it's wheels. Even if it rolls, it usually flips back up or on it's side! ARRMA really nailed this one! It's so exhilarating to just nail the throttle and watch it haul! The power does seem to feed in and it just picks up major momentum and hovers overs any surface! Absolutely love it and AWESOME vid bro!! Glad the driveshaft poping was the end problem! Cheers bro!!😎👊💪🍻

[@AussieRCPlayground]

Thank you so much for watching this, Eric. You were the inspiration behind this vid, if I hadn't seen you do those backflips, I probably would've been too chicken to try it myself. LOL. But not only can it do backflips, but it does so much more and it's damn near unstoppable! Absolutely love this thing, it's a pleasure to drive, it's big, it jumps well, it's fast, it handles well and it's the toughest SOB SCT on the market today. I have no doubt about that. Thanks heaps for the comment, brother, happy bashing. 💪😊👍🤜🤛🍻🍻

[@richduperbash2966]

Holy Crap 😱!!!! That was absolutely AWESOME Vas 😜!!! No holding back Brother 👊. Hats off for the wonderful driving👏👏👏. Completely shredding and sending it out there🚀🚀. Those were the sickest floaters, flips, and transfers 🙀. That front flip transfer was beyond sick Vas 👀. This was a well rounded, hardcore Mojave test and she passed with flying colors. Big girl even moves nice on 4s 🤗. Cheers to you Brother and huge props to ARRMA for another brilliant fun design!!! 👍👍😎💪👊👊

[@AussieRCPlayground]

Haha, thanks so much Rich. I know Eric has one, but in the back of my mind I was so hoping you'd have one too. No doubt you'd be sending it hardcore and raise the bar even further. Thanks heaps for watching brother. 💪😊👍🤜🤛

[@TomleyRC]

If you can’t say Arrma Tough after this video.......you can never say Arrma Tough! That thing took a beating! And that was the smoothest, biggest front flip I’ve ever seen 😎🤙

[@AussieRCPlayground]

Haha, thanks man. 😊👍💪

[@RCBasement]

Awesome vid, this thing just defies what this kind of truck should be able to do, has anyone ever seen an SCT or Desert truck fly through the air like that? Arrma have created an absolute beast with this thing. Great bash Vas could totally tell how much fun you were having out there

[@trentgalloway]

Vas!!! Are you kidding me?!?! What a beating! I getting this rig for sure!!!

[@trentgalloway]

Update .. I get mine Wednesday!!! Red one

[@LulzRoyce]

KZbinrs: Launching their cars into the air 60ft and bugger the landing, 100% intact Me (same car): 5ft jump, land upright - breaks shock and buckle

[@that_radio_control_guy1911]

Looks fantastic in motion, it just floats through the air on the big jumps

[@RedRoxRc]

I don’t have to see the smile on your face, I can hear it! Brother, that was an awesome video! As always thank you so much for putting out some of the best rc content out there! Always a pleasure! Early on when arrma put out their first video I commented saying this truck is truly in a league of its own. Someone made fun of my comment blah blah blah. I’ll say it again, this truck is 100% in a league of its own period. And you and Eric have truly proven that. That was truly so much fun to watch! 21 minutes and it felt like 5! What a fantastic machine! Cheers! Rcfam4life ‼️🤜🤛‼️

[@AussieRCPlayground]

Thank you so much for the kind words, my friend. Always a pleasure to read your comments. 💪😊👍🤜🤛

[@ErikvanMinnen]

You Sir, are a maniac... Of the good kind... But still a maniac... That hysterical joyful laugh... Gives me shivers... 😆 Thx Vas...

[@AussieRCPlayground]

Haha, thanks so much, man. Was in a good mood, truck was running well and I was genuinely enjoying myself. Glad you enjoyed the vid. 😊👍

[@ErikvanMinnen]

@@AussieRCPlayground you could hardly notice it... Between the school girls maniac giggles... 😆

The most epic front flip 💯🏎

You have sold me on the Mojave. Love your vids.

[@lridebashitrc9422]

Great first run video. 👍👍. That is one sweet looking rig. 👊🏻👊🏻. ARRMA did another great job.

[@CommanderAstigRC]

One Hell of a Bash Vas!! Hands down the BEST, Toughest SOB SCT to date!!💪👍🤘😲🚀👊👏. This thing is undeniably Strong!! And surprisingly controllable midair. Very stable on turns. Amazing truck Vas. Props to Arrma for such an outstanding and very well done Basher SCT. You went Big.. I meant BIG!!!! Serious Air with this Beast man🚀🚀. Awesome backflip and a massive wicked frontflip!😲😱👀🤘👍👏👏. She took some hard hits and just keeps on going!!!😱. She hit LVC and went home in one piece.Just amazing. Well done brother.

[@moonsavage1978]

One of the best Mojave Vids I have seen, they all are great, but you took it to the next level! The fun you had sending it, awsome Vas :).

[@AussieRCPlayground]

Thank you so much, man. Yeah, I had a lot of fun driving this truck and I can't wait to do it again. 😁👍

[@CCxRC]

Wow.... Wow.... that thing is insane.

[@genisdevlin2751]

Absolutely loooovvvveeee this video!! Because of your excitement in this video I actually bought a Mojave!! Excellent truck!! Absolutely no complaints!! All I did was pull the stock transmitter and installed my 7px futaba and gyro. Love this truck to death!! Continue to put out great content bro!!

Amazing video!! I love that you show it running on both 4s and 6s. That front flip was EPIC!!!

Thank you so much man. I had a lot of fun running this truck and I can't wait to drive it again. 😊

@@AussieRCPlayground I just spent $639.00 on one of these trucks and I blame this video lol Great bash my friend and I could tell how much fun you were having so I had to grab one

[@cbix86]

I’ve said it on Facebook and I’ll say it here, cleanest front flip landing I’ve seen in ages! Looks like a awesome truck and Arrma have added another great model to their range. Great real world first run too man 👍🏻

Thank you so much, man. Had a lot of good jumps that day, but this just stands up against the rest for sure. 😊👍

This is a real test of torture ! Amazing truck arrma 🙌

[@robertredzich7292]

Just crazy good. Skills have alot to do with its survival but, even then you took some hard, hard hits. This one really is begging to be added to my collection. It'll beg a little longer for now. So many good RC's out there right now. This one sooo impressive. Your enthusiasm was infectious right up to the nerher region comment LOL. Couldn't you have just said it made your toes tingle lol. As always fair and rugged bash (blast).

[@duuden23]

Tell me how you can not be a fan of ARRMA? 😎 But this one is incredible awesome and must have! Great vid as Always!

[@petergoodwin2465]

Thank dyou very much Vas , was waiting to see this. What a beast, so glad you showed us this . Can see this beautiful truck being another great investment from Arrma. What a great torture test ,cant wait for it to arrive. Wife just bashed the hell out of the 6s senton and its a blast . I cant break the 3s Senton so how hard is it to break a Mojave ? This thing is a tank, Arrma just did it again. Im Having too much fun with these Arrmas and i cant get enough of these beasts. Thank you for the great video Vas ,very enjoyable.

[@AussieRCPlayground]

Thanks Peter, glad you enjoyed it. 😊👍

[@Sheldinator]

i was so against getting this truck i thought it was restricted to only flat platforms. then i saw this. now you made me spend 1000 euros... thanks

[@andrewtexieraa9316]

This thing is basically a monster slash what a beast

[@cwatson42785]

Its crazy how you lose an incredibly insane and epic bash spot but then your backup park is equally as sick! I know the drive sucks for you tho. We love and appreciate the videos! Damn that thing got some insane air! Very impressive.

[@FullOnRC]

Great stuff Vas, been looking forward to this. 👍👍

[@12R1rcbashr]

Awesome freakin video man i love this truck just watching all the videos good Lord i cant wait to get one looks so sweet running thanks for sharing happy bashing my brotha.

truly impressive...WOW My CenXT would've folded for sure - THAT was proof positive that ArrmA is and always has been the most durable in the business. I remember hearing about a big sexton and here it is.... This will be my next truck for sure

4:07 I had my Granite 3s land like that at about 30mph and tumble for a good 30ft afterwards, over and over. Still perfect. No braces inside, all stock.

[@AussieRCPlayground]

Thank you so much, man, I really appreciate that. This truck performed way better than I had hoped and it amazed me that I could do a backflip or frontflip and keep it right side up. It's an impressive machine and ARRMA should be proud. 💪😊👍🤜🤛
