I love this little thing. More fun than any other small scale I've owned (a lot). Low top speed, but it's amazing in literally every other way. Super tough, super cheap parts, super easy to work on, and handles just as you would expect a tiny Mojave to handle. 10/10 in my books.

I couldn't agree more. After 2 minutes, the speed escaped my mind completely because I was just enjoying the drive!

I picked up the red and black Mojave Grom yesterday. It looks SO good. I used to have a Mojave EXB and this thing somehow looks even better despite being so much smaller. (It's the moldings on the front grill like the 4s Mojave that adds to it.) It's a ton of fun for what is and a good companion to my Granite Grom and my kids' small RCs.

Both of my typhon grom and my Mojave grom are fast enough for me and I'm used to 50mph nitro cars it takes a while for those small electric motors to break in people don't give time for that to happen arrma did their research I'm happy with both of my trucks 😮😎👍

What really surprised even more than the speed comparing it to the awesome 1/14 scale hbx is the minimal size difference between the two and the Arrma being a 1/18! Ihave the 3100a and it’s an awesome rig for the money, it’s a bit faster when you put a 1800 mah lipo in it. Believe I got like 26 or27 mph. That Arrma is sweet though! I’ve got one on back order.very excited! Epic video and shakedowns friend!

They do make great small scale SCT rivals. Both have an advantage in certain areas that the other can't match. Both are good, both are similar in price as well.

I really like the look of this Grom. The color looks excellent. The detail is great including the white lettering on the tires. As you know I have 2 Typhon Groms and I converted one to brushless but I actually like how the stock one performs off road and off jumps.

The consistent hole shot from the Grom is impressive for a brushed system.

It really is, I was thinking the same thing because I was expecting it to lose the majtof the drag races. It dropped one or two but it was mostly a win for the Grom, or a draw most of the time

We're going to do a full head to head shoot out of the two, then give one away. Give away winner picks, but we'll get them a new one. You don't want a car that's been in a Rek RC video generally hahahahaha. Though, we've been surprisingly gentle lately.

I'm just not convinced with the Grom.. They just smack of being a cynical cash grab by Arrma.. (but I do tend towards cynicism myself) 😉 😂 😂 The Mojave is the best version, but it's just too expensive, it's not brushless, the essential upgrades (that it's competition has stock) are way overpriced.!! I own a few Arrma's & I enjoy each of them, I'm especially loving my Infraction 3S & Limitless.!!!... I just don't know about these ones.!
