DoRC is a great channel. Best tear downs I've ever seen. He should be included in any future youtuber buildoff shenanigans. The fastest Vanquish competition should be annual.
Love the groms. I got both typhons when they first came out and had to replace both diffs in both of them. At least they were super easy to change....those little cars are so much fun. My 9 year old girls love them too
I love the look of the black and red body tbh. It's extremely clean if you ask me. My dream RC currently is a UDR. I love how smooth it runs and how realistically it's set up and moves.
Phil! Thanks for the video! May I suggest some mods? I will anyway. LOL I have over 250 runs on mine with MANY power systems (and boring videos showing them) and found the NDSRC servo with the HR servo saver to be EPIC! Best servo in all my Groms by far! The all metal diffs are a MUST HAVE. I tried several brands and the Arrma ones are just perfect. The steering links get sloppy pretty fast and the HR links work a treat! Have fun!
That X2 1010 kit is pretty wild in the Groms! From what I saw they actually did slightly update the output cups on the differentials. They're still plastic but they're a little bit beefier and I've had better luck with them than the original ones. Still probably won't last too long for most people with that kind of power though!
Hi mate 👍 Been watching Rc vids but not commenting so yours is the first one for Maximum years 😊 as you have always done , you've entertained me and your vids are never boring 😏 still got my Rcs and hopefully 1 day I'll be back on RUclips 🙏🏻 I really enjoyed every second of this Video mate 👍 have a great week 👍😁👍
Tony, this comment has made my day. I was hoping you were still about.... and Boom... here you are! I'm pleased you still have your RC's.... keeping my fingers crossed for you
awww thanks mate 😊 yeah am still buying and am hoping to start up next year. Really miss the Rc community 😢 just got to get my life right then BOOOOM am back lol. Just going to stick with your channel at the moment 🥰 going to watch your latest vid now 😀 thanks for replying mate 👍 it mean alot 👍
I got one on preorder and had it at the 4th of July. It is one of my favorite trucks. I have blown a front cvd and i blew a diff and now I sheared a rear tire off
My son just got Altair Scout 1/16 scale brushless truggy and we put a fisherprice dump truck body on it, It looks so cool. great car for under $50 on amazon. I have videos of it running the dump truck body in the park.
The arena upgrade diffs is $50 in the US for both with metal outputs. Not that bad. Even $68 for you. Hot racing also makes some upgrade output cups you use with the stock diff. So there are plenty of options.
That's cool as anything! Always wanted the big version couldn't afford it that 4s never even knew about it! Definitely be looking into them after the video!
I've been really impressed with the Castle Micro X2 and 1007/1010 motors, have it paired with the 1007 6350kv motor in the Team Associated Reflex 14MT and it screams, have it with the 4400kv 1010 in a Losi Mini B with the Hack Fab 1/12 scale on road conversion and it's wild.
Sick little truck man! That was funny how it plowed through that dirt clod. You literally made a Clod Buster. I love how you used the original clip system too. Oh, while I'm thinking of it, "fruity" means something else in the United States. 😆 Too much fun! I'm tellin' you man, I need to win that Mojave! Make it happen bro! That thing looks like fun incarnate! Anyway, great video as always. Can't wait to see what you come up with next. Cheers brother.
Wow Phil - that was a fun one, man! Plus you sold me on buying a Mojave 4s (if I don't win yours, of course). It'll be my first non-Traxxas RC. Time to see how the rest of the world lives, eh? Would love to know what Tomley means... Thanks for the entertaining, informative, fun vids
Sounds like me almost 3 years ago. Horizon put the Fireteam on sale for $399 on black friday. I figured for that price it was worth the risk. Fast forward to today and instead of only Traxxas there is only a TRX6 and Xmaxx left in my collection that is Traxxas. Out of the dozen or so Arrma's I have that Fireteam is still my favorite truck. I have all 3 Mojave trucks and love them all also. I just put the Furitek drop in combo in my Mojave Grom and it's a little animal. Welcome to the dark side my friend. I hope you stay around like I did.
I'm running a castle copperhead and 1007 combo in mine with a full steel drivetrain. it's an absolute monster, a tiny SCT shouldn't be able to pull backflips as easily as it does
I've seen allot of reviews about the Grom serie, but this one is by far the best! Great power with the Castle setup, sadly the Landrover body was the weak spot😂👍
@@TomleyRC you replied to me twice 🤩 I’m a big fan Phil thank you! Only been following for a year or so but you are my go to channel! Much respect to you sir !
I've been 83 mph on the stock axles and diffs so far. I'd say Arrma sorted them. That is on the NASCAR. I keep a spare Mojave for parts but I haven't needed them yet.
@@TomleyRC Any ETA on when you are getting one? Room under the body on the NASCARs for days. Motor size is limited if you aren't brave enough to get creative.
So he essentially made them off those chassis meaning they could be used as a full bash bar/skid plate and weight for them for the people who speed run the small cars some longer screws and counter sink em that would be perfect for those
Well if nothing else, that's a good little chassis. I have to admit I like this little truck. Great vid as always. Edit: I forgot, that truck looked awesome with the land rover body on it.
@@TomleyRC It did look very cool while it lasted! I made a Series IIA body for a 1:8 scale Thunder Tiger nitro monster truck once. It came out so heavy that it would traction roll all the time, so I just used to put it on the truck at home - like its "shelf body".
I love my Mojave grom! IMO. Its the best small scale on the market. FMS, Rlaro, traxxas and the hyper gos simply don't compare. (In my opinion) I wish Arrma would make us a limitless 1/14 scale!
Do you reckon a Tamiya sport tuned 380 would fit/work with the esc included? also I hummed the rest of the A team tune,it was handy the A team always got locked in a warehouse full of tank making equipment wasn't it
Hey have you checked out the Haiboxing 1/12 brushless stadium truck. It’s an all metal driveline. And it’s 2s out of the box but I have it ripping on 4s with different esc.
Nice video Phil! Think I’ll just keep beating on my MJX HPG16208, with it’s separate reciever( I switched out to a dumbo rc w / gyro). Still haven’t broke anything yet, but will I’m sure.
I really like my Mojave Grom. I went with the Furitek drop in Grom combo. It seems like the best compromise of performance and price. That being said, I'm over the mini everything craze. It's time for some new large scale rigs. We have only had one large scale release in over a year. I love my Redcat Vigilante but i want a 5th scale electric basher buggy. A 8s Typhon or Vigilante based buggy. I'd even buy a Traxxas if they'd build it first.
Are you going to review the Redcat Valkyrie MT 1/10 brushless? I've not seen a review and am very interested in purchasing one. I trust your reviews on how the trucks hold up when you put them through their paces.
If you buy one, also buy two new differentials. ARA#11193, the V2's will break their cups. Shocks will be the next thing to go. I have two, it did take around 40 packs run thru them both but those parts did break.
The castle creations 1010 5600kv motor is only rated for 3s but I'm sure you can get 4s through it. The 4400kv is the 4s motor. 5600 on 4s would be over the rpm limit. 2s-4s on the box is for the esc. You're talking 90k plus rpm on a fully charged lipo.
The grom is the perfect RC for a young kid. They can grow with it. It’s easy to work on. It CAN haul ass. 4 platforms share parts so custom is easy to achieve without spending a lot or special parts really. Granit typhoon Mohave and the losi nascar are all the same cars different sizes and bodies.

Topless like that at the end.. looked like a banger racer! Love it! Just make your own race cage for it.

Yes I agree… a really clean look
So glad I was patient and waited for the BLX version to come out. Ordered 2. Black/gold for me and the Teal/pink livery for the daughter 😊😎
That was the best body replacement ive seen on any rc car
what body is it
What's awesome is that he goes straight forward and doesn't wheely the whole time
Phil! Thanks for the video! May I suggest some mods? I will anyway.

Awesome, cheers mate. I’ll add the servo and links to my list. This things gonna be wild 👌
The little Arma seemed so well balanced when you were jumping it. All four wheels all the time... how cool!!
What a lil beast of a jeep RC you've made
It's like a kiddy little kitten 🐈 chasing a torch light
I love those history tidbits.Especially because u don't push it to a "drama" for some cheap views.

this might be earliest ive caught one of your vids 😎 that custom body was 🔥

This was great test and the diffs held up. As a contributing designer you should feel proud.
Yeah, I was impressed they survived!
Hopefully Arrma paid attention to this. This looks killer with that Rover body. Different shell options would be awesome
Even if they did… I’m sure they’ll not take anything from it 😅
@@TomleyRC well if they care about their customer base they should pay attention...come on Arrma!!
Awesome little truck, Phil! Great mods as well!!! 😃
About the blue body, I think it was holding you back!
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Wow Phil - that was a fun one, man!
Plus you sold me on buying a Mojave 4s (if I don't win yours, of course). It'll be my first non-Traxxas RC. Time to see how the rest of the world lives, eh?

I've been waiting for this for SOOO long! Definitely worth the wait, tho!
Great vid!
Great job that body on the mohave grom is sick!!!!!
The red and white looks an awesome combo
I agree 👌
I'm running a castle copperhead and 1007 combo in mine with a full steel drivetrain. it's an absolute monster, a tiny SCT shouldn't be able to pull backflips as easily as it does
the best quality brand of this century
Cheap enough I can order one of those without having to explain why I need another Tomley RC suggestion. Thanks for just what I was looking for.
Looks great stock, love the way it leans proper!
This brought joy to my day. Thank you, God bless.
I've seen allot of reviews about the Grom serie, but this one is by far the best! Great power with the Castle setup, sadly the Landrover body was the weak spot😂👍
I loved the look of the landy body shame it didn't hold up to testing. With the upgraded system this thing is an absolute monster
Must admit i do like how it squats in the rear when you punch the throttle!
What's the best controller to buy for all my ftx cars fed up of the standard chee controller s you get with the cars. I just want one for all of them.
Crazy bonkers filled show here TomleyRc🤙🏿🤩🥳👋🏿👋🏿😎
The truck handles much times better without the shell
Boy like a topless wonder🤗😏💯
Haha, love it! Looks like you made a cool truck even more fun!
And yes, that was an interesting story you told about Arrma…hmmm…
Perfect video with morning coffee thanks
Great video! Did not disappoint! Some awesome shots and a wicked build!
Thanks Jay
@@TomleyRC you replied to me twice 🤩 I’m a big fan Phil thank you! Only been following for a year or so but you are my go to channel! Much respect to you sir !
Ez Phil. We are all getting the mojave grom’s to race for a larf at Badlandz during the winter
Yes! Sounds awesome… I’m not sure I’ll be down that way anymore this year, but o can imagine it’ll be a riot!
That transition was smoooooooth Phil 🤣🤣🤣
church warsop,god that brings back some good old bmx memories!!! thanks tomley
I've been 83 mph on the stock axles and diffs so far. I'd say Arrma sorted them. That is on the NASCAR. I keep a spare Mojave for parts but I haven't needed them yet.
That’s a decent speed! I really want a NASCAR but they are not out over here yet
I flattened my diff gears my first time out after going brushless on my Mojave ☹️ but the steel gears have held up perfectly
@@TomleyRC Any ETA on when you are getting one? Room under the body on the NASCARs for days. Motor size is limited if you aren't brave enough to get creative.
man that looks cool with the Landy' body whacked on it!...I want one!!...NOW!!.
Yes, of only it was a bit tougher
That’s the same system I put in my Mojave. It’s crazy fast on 2s and 3s. On 4s, it’s insane!!
That was funny!😅👍
It looked more like an Aerial Atom by the end!😂
So he essentially made them off those chassis meaning they could be used as a full bash bar/skid plate and weight for them for the people who speed run the small cars some longer screws and counter sink em that would be perfect for those
I like this one. Think the price is good too. Nice conversion. As long as it lasted that is.
The black and red is always a good combination.
Yeah, it’s a good platform.. the body was just not made for that abuse 😅
Call the insurance company, that’s total now 😂😂 I love that trunk.
That little guy screams great video 👍👍
Very nice build. Now I want to build one.
Well if nothing else, that's a good little chassis. I have to admit I like this little truck.
Great vid as always.
Edit: I forgot, that truck looked awesome with the land rover body on it.
One of my favorite hobbys keep trying to win one day it will happen keep up the awesome videos me and my son love watching them
Well done, Phil. This is important work.
Cheers Del… you know I like a good body swap 👌
@@TomleyRC It did look very cool while it lasted!
I made a Series IIA body for a 1:8 scale Thunder Tiger nitro monster truck once. It came out so heavy that it would traction roll all the time, so I just used to put it on the truck at home - like its "shelf body".
That would be a super awesome chassis for a classic mini cooper
Will a 10th scale tamiya shell fit on it? If it dose it’d make a lovely little rallycross car 👍
Looks so cool with the landy body.
i've also fitted a vxl3m, the esc is terrible but the motor is nifty, i cut a slot system and enlarged the holes to do that, stuck with a 19t
I have the same system in my granite grom, full metal drive train,48 mph on 2s! Have fun!
Holy sh!t bro!! That is really really cool! Great job… I’ll bet it will clear the jumps at the track now😎
Just been and got my free entry into the Mojave compo!...oooooh...I got My fingers crossed for that! Thanks for the chance Phil!
Good luck dude
What’s the promo code, I’m new to giveaways lol
Haha the “oh hello” part was hilarious.
I love my Mojave grom!
IMO.
Its the best small scale on the market.
FMS, Rlaro, traxxas and the hyper gos simply don't compare.
(In my opinion)
I wish Arrma would make us a limitless 1/14 scale!
Do you reckon a Tamiya sport tuned 380 would fit/work with the esc included? also I hummed the rest of the A team tune,it was handy the A team always got locked in a warehouse full of tank making equipment wasn't it
It might fit….and yeah, always a full workshop wasn’t it haha
So far I'm liking this truck a lot better than the mini 1/16 Losi that I purchased.
Awesome, was waiting for this one. Think it's time now to get my own!
Hey have you checked out the Haiboxing 1/12 brushless stadium truck. It’s an all metal driveline. And it’s 2s out of the box but I have it ripping on 4s with different esc.
Impressed. You bet cha I'm impressed.
😊😊😊😊😊
🤩
Looks cool with the landy body on
Yes, shame it broke 😅
My bad I really was busy when I first kinda watched but that was great Phil . Good trail with jumps nice . ok that’s why the first comment was off.
No worries dude
Maybe this is your new travel-basher!
Good luck everyone on the Mojave 4s raffal!
any chance there's a side by side body that fits?
Nice video Phil! Think I’ll just keep beating on my MJX HPG16208, with it’s separate reciever( I switched out to a dumbo rc w / gyro). Still haven’t broke anything yet, but will I’m sure.

RE: dropping the Mojave and spilling your coffee: Well, that what you get for drinking coffee.....;)
At 12:15 what pin tire were you using for a track marker.
No sure mate, I think it came off a ZD Racing Truggy
I think my granddaughter needs one of these 😉. What onboard camera do you put on the cars?
Yes she does! I use an Insta360 Go
She's a beast!!! Careful you don't get KO'd by a flying rock! 😅
Would the differentials made for Wltoys 14401 fit in this mini rc basher?
THE GROMM
🤘
I have much more expensive rc cars in the 6s category, but for some reason, I like this even more😊
Yes, sometimes these little ones over powered are way more fun!
Those diffs look suspiciously like FTX ones... Great fun, as others have said keep it topless and make a roll cage.
Tomley got the mojave grom and a 22t pinion and its too tight (thats not what she said) do you know the solution??? Thanks
Are you going to review the Redcat Valkyrie MT 1/10 brushless? I've not seen a review and am very interested in purchasing one. I trust your reviews on how the trucks hold up when you put them through their paces.
R the stenton 6s tyres better then the 4s Mojave I've just noticed the 6s sentons are cheaper,needing for mojave 4s
If you buy one, also buy two new differentials. ARA#11193, the V2's will break their cups. Shocks will be the next thing to go. I have two, it did take around 40 packs run thru them both but those parts did break.
im getting a mojave 6s next christmas, can't wait!
Nice, love to see you do similar to the MJX14301/14303. just hit 63mph yesterday :D
I was going to do a ‘road’ version at some point
Now that’s a landy after my ow heart. Awesome
I brought one at SST. Excellent fun.
Yeah, they are good fun!
Awesome video, thanks for sharing!!
Cheers John
What’s a good servo for these smaller cars? I can’t seem to find one that lasts.
Mate cool build. Also wheres the bmx pump track that you go to located, it looks really good.

The castle creations 1010 5600kv motor is only rated for 3s but I'm sure you can get 4s through it. The 4400kv is the 4s motor. 5600 on 4s would be over the rpm limit. 2s-4s on the box is for the esc. You're talking 90k plus rpm on a fully charged lipo.
3:02 that matches so closely it is unlikely that it’s a coincidence.
p.s. kindness does not enter into duty, but you already know that.
Yes, when I was unboxing it I remembered about the conversation again… so had to check!
The grom is the perfect RC for a young kid. They can grow with it. It’s easy to work on. It CAN haul ass. 4 platforms share parts so custom is easy to achieve without spending a lot or special parts really. Granit typhoon Mohave and the losi nascar are all the same cars different sizes and bodies.
