Damn, they come with brushless motor ($53), a more powerful 3S ESC with built in receiver and gyro ($66), Aluminum shocks ($45), all metal/oil filled diffs ($45), adjustable turnbuckles ($8), steel axles and aluminum hexes ($30). That’s $247 worth of quality Arrma upgrade parts and you still get the same radio, 2S and charger, plus several fly new color combos and a full Arrma warranty for only $200 or about $50 more than the brushed model. It will go over twice as fast as “50+mph” with optional 3S LiPO vs about 18-20mph of the brushed ones on 2S. You give up only the stock brushed motor and 2S brushed ESC, something most of of have no use for after upgrading our Groms. I spent $149 for the brushed car, $70 for an ESC (4s but tiny), $29 for a bigger brushless motor, $45 for diffs, $8 for links, $20 for receiver with gyro, $30 for two 3S 2200mAh CNHL LiPos, $10 for a servo saver, $8 ESC plate, $6 20mm fan, $6 bigger pinion, and probably more just to have one without the $30 metal axles/hexes or the $45 aluminum shocks. So, I gladly spent more money for a car with about the same power and speed, $75+ less in upgrades, no cool pastel or black and gold body, or Arrma’s great warranty. The GROM223S cars are a SMOKIN’ deal and anyone who doesn’t immediately see that is not thinking straight. Now, I wish I’d waited two more months and bought the 223S version but, who really cares. I got what I wanted sooner and I don’t care if I had to pay more and build it myself. Anyone who balks at the higher price if the 223S versions and buys a brushed model Grom now should have their head examined though. Seriously good deal here!

This really makes me regret being an early adopter. The got the price right, because I have more money than that in the brushed version just with upgrading the axles and diffs. And now with these, they just murdered any resale value I had. Dang it! I might as well just do the preorder (although the Mojava preorder was quite the cluster). I do with they had something between the current Mojave Grom size and the 1/10 scale. Just a tad larger would help with grass/terrain. Will probably end up getting the Typhon, too. I don't know how I will justify either of these, but it is about what I would have spent putting the Furitek system in what I have and having to get Rx/Tx. I think I am girl mathing this into existence.
@DoRC3 ай бұрын

@@DoRC Fair point. I was already considering getting one of those. I may try to talk myself off the ledge and just get that and wait until the BL Groms generally release. ALTHOUGH, my stepdaughter said she wanted an RC for Christmas - and that purple colored Mojave might pique her interest. If that does, I can swap the body and wheels between that new one and the red/black brushed one I have never ran - and we both get what we want. But also considering pushing her toward one of the new Arrma 1/10 models as they seem to be more versatile for around our yard.

Well I feel dumb for getting a brushed version and then upgrading the suspension, diffs and cvds and going brushless… this is a great deal at $200

Yeah unfortunately for us it makes more business sense for them to release them in this order than the other way around. I've had a lot of fun with my brushed trucks though so I don't regret it.

£225 is a lot better than the £280 for the micro max . But the only real annoyance for me is the ic2 connector
@th3w4nted3 ай бұрын
Agreed! What the hell? Now there’s another connector I have to deal with for my charger that only has XT60 connectors.
@DoRC3 ай бұрын
Yeah fortunately it's not too difficult to swap out but I really would have liked to have seen the IC3. I think they pigeonholed themselves into the IC2 with the brushed version.

@@DoRC I found an IC2 to XT60 adapter cable so looks like there are alternative options out there. Spektrum don’t even make a decent capacity 3S battery with an IC2 connector which is a joke.

Soldering is pretty easy, and it's not like swapping the connector will void your warranty. Every Arrma warranty replacement I've got they don't want me to send in the broken part, they just ask for a picture and send me a new one. Just don't show the new connector in the picture and you're good to go!

You can buy two RIAARIO ROG1 for 60 dollars more
@DoRC3 ай бұрын
You can but buying from Horizon has its advantages. The warranty is going to be easier to implement if you have to part support is guaranteed for a lot longer and upgrades if you're into them are going to be a lot more available.

@@DoRC on another note. Can you do a video on tires? I have the fury, vorteks and a few other cars. I am looking for something in the lines of good tires for track use and tires for bashing on the fury and vorteks. Kinda like a why a style/tire works for 1 situation. I feel like tires are a trade secret in the rc world.
