Arrma Mojave Grom goes Brushless with Furitek!

[@RCRoads]

Thanks for sharing the Furitek system. This is the first video that I've seen with it actually running. Great setup overall for it's compact size and performance.

[@arupruprc1406]

That's an outstanding upgrade! Definitely need it for mine!!

[@Macgyver46]

Been waiting to see this! Awesome option. This combo will definitely go into my granite and typhon. Was looking at castle Creations options since it can get a typhon to 108mph basically stock.

[@johnvaz2048]

Love it. Will definitely pre order for both my groms. Awesome video.

[@1500chessie]

Man i`m already hooked to 1:18 scale. My fingers are itching to order an Mojave Grom and the Furitek combo. My Mini Lmt has a Furitek 5600 KV Kinetic motor and it´s an animal. The Grom is way lighter and i guess even quicker. Had a blast to watch the vid.

[@GSG-lc5zm]

That thing rips now! Heeeelllll yeaaaah!!

[@RunThatRC]

That's what I'm talking about! 35mph is a good speed. 50mph on 3s is insane! Waiting for mine to show up!

[@jrmbtr]

This is very compelling. I have the Granite and Typhon Groms, and two Mojave Groms in the box waiting to figure out how I will mod them out the gate. Been waiting to see what BL stuff hits that is meant for them.

[@Chekin6swreckinloofas]

So, love the format of this video. Typhon grom, if you run a hobby wing or mamba x2 million kv motor folks may want to build a motor support to shore up back end. Otherwise you may snap the shaft.

[@AnySumptionBanter]

should you have some trees out there, you could then make a trail around them for these types of vehicles... tree changes the landscapes too including some roots and bumps so it adds character and very little work... and would keep you cool with shade! fun looking rig

@@AnySumptionBanter yeah i definitely need some shade!

Nvrm I just clicked the vid and said that my bad

Amazing video brother!!💯Love how you said everything you were going to do inthe first 30 seconds of the video. its so awesome of you to leave links in the description and explain eveything you used and did as you were doing it. will definitely be coming back to watch some more videos! happy to be a new subscriber man. I know im a bit late but one more thing, will this also fit on the typhoon grom?

[@2fmrc]

@@LilyPadPro777 I really appreciate the sub! Glad the video was what you wanted. I don’t have the Typhon grom but I assume it should fit it also. I think they use the same motor mount setup.

[@darwandoo]

Hi where do I find the new receiver you used. Can't find it in the notes

[@RC-Closer1313]

We race them against Rlaarlo Omni Terminator’s .. fun as hell!!

I am concern about installing this system to the Granite Grom having no fan and ended up burning the brushless motor. I am ordering for my Mojave and Typhon.

[@toolbaggers]

What about the heat sink?

[@TheHudsonValleyWanderer]

I bet the release a brushless version in some months.

[@Inkognito_tk]

Anyone get the issue where it turns but doesn’t throttle? Any suggestions on fix? Noob here thanks!

[@APxRChead]

What transmitter/receiver did you use on your grom? Sweet video as always thanks bro!

[@2fmrc]

@@APxRChead flysky noble for this one. I just happened to have an extra receiver around for it lol

[@TexasWaters]

That motor looks to small for the truck, I'd put in a 2840 or 45 and HW 60A. Everyone seem to put in 24XX motors in these Grom's but I've found they run way to hot. I bought two HW quicrun 16BL30 Combo's with 2435-4500kv G3 motors, one for the Granite Grom and one for a Latrax Rally, both run way to hot and nether one has seen a 3S, plus the Mojave is bigger then the Granite and Latrax Rally so I'm not sure how that combo is even holding up. I've ordered a Tenshock TS-X1401-4150kv and I'm think about ordering that HW quicrun 16BL60, I'm going see how this 30A holds up first. How's is the system holding up?

[@birdistheword1327]

Excuse me sir I have a question. What would be a good servo upgrade for it? I'm unsure how to find one, there's so many to choose from. I know I want a nice metal geared high torque model, the spectrum that came with it is shot

[@MysticRiverRC]

This is how Arrma should have shipped it! Fun as heck with brushless!

[@jefferycoleman3781]

Lots of reviews on the arma web page stating that the diffs are weak broke quickly..Maybe they nmeed shimmed?

[@2fmrc]

Yeah I’ve seen lots of issues. Luckily mine have been fine so far

[@netoesm]

What reciver did you use? I really want to have something just like your setup and I’ve finally saved up the money so I’m going to buy it now but I was just wondering what is everything that you used? And one more thing, what type of charger do yo use for your battery’s I’ve always used the ones that come with the box because I never bought any supérate battery’s or cars that come without it because I stick to the cheaper side of them like the rustler and arrma groms

[@2fmrc]

@@netoesm I’m running a flysky noble receiver in this one & a spektrum s2100 dual charger.

[@tootyful]

Do you have a discount code from Furitek for this?

[@rcguiden5002]

Should it be calibratet with the transmitter somehow? so the esc/transmitter knows what throttle, brake and so ?

[@2fmrc]

@@rcguiden5002 you can calibrate it in the FuriCar app like all of the Furitek stuff.

[@jguillermoii]

Any issues after few days of bashing? I read a lot of post on social media about the shaft snapping their expensive brushless set up.

[@2fmrc]

@@jguillermoii so far mine hasn’t had any issues thankfully lol. Mostly running on the dirt in my backyard.

[@Havingoneofthosedays-]

Oh snap. That motor shaft seems inadequately small. Only from experience playing with my Grom.

[@Steve_J81]

Snap is right! motor shaft has left the building 🤣🤣🤣

[@jtracer1143]

It’s the same size as stock 😂

[@Steve_J81]

@@jtracer1143 True but the Furitek motor makes 3 times the amount of torque.

Yes it will. Furitek has a Mini LMT specific kit which is identical to this kit it just uses a different name.

[@jrmbtr]

@@2fmrc Was considering going BL in one of my Groms with a Spektrum Rx/Tx with AVC. I have seen a lot of your Furitek videos on your crawlers, but was not aware of this upcoming product until your video. Was thinking of the Spektrum 2-n-1 and dialing back all the punch settings, but this Furitek system is not that much more cost-wise. May hold out for a sale or coupon, but this is now on my short list.

[@2fmrc]

@@jrmbtr yeah I had also picked up one of these to put in mine before I learned about the Furitek. The main reason I didn’t want the spektrum is I believe it’s 2s only. I wanted the option for 3s. amzn.to/4fQFoFG

problem is it cost more than the rig itself.

[@2fmrc]

@@DearDiaryMe close to it lol

[@Chekin6swreckinloofas]

Yes, i agree. But it its such a tough rig why wouldnt you spend the extra $$? If its only in your budget to buy a stock grom, consider yourself blessed because stock they are badass. Over built from factory. Makes me twitch

[@peteroman4297]

I get that you want more “Punch” but I just threw in my Mojave Grom a Hobbywing set and that only ran me $60 for both the ESC and motor and I’m getting 51-53mph with fans on both motor and ESC with no problem. Why would I spend the same amount of money that I spent on the truck on an ESC & Motor? Don’t get me wrong I do like “Furytek” but if I can save a $100.00 dollars then why not? There’s nothing wrong with a “Hobbywing” setup. Anyways, love the video brother.🤷🏻‍♂️💯👍
