I can’t wait to let it loose but I’m having a hard time finding places where I can turn it loose in the Washington DC area. I’ve got a set of paddle tires and plan to take it to the beach for the day.
Leave it stock, it's just awesome as it is, I'm a bit of an Arrma fan boy and have the Bigrock 6s too, I love both but the Mojave is definitely at the top of the list by far! Enjoy👍👍👍
Looks like a nice neat package, I'm not sure I like the velcro on the body sides that could be a real pain to open up in our colder western Canadian temps. We've finally got rid of all our snow and the temp is forecast to be 7C so I'm getting my grand kids out today to have a blast with my big rock 6S. The ground is still frozen solid so we should be able to get some massive slides Thanks for everything.
How’s the Mojave 6s holding up? I’m torn between this or a Fireteam 6s. The only RC experience I have is with a Typhon 3s and was debating if the 6s is worth it over the 4s money not being a factor
@@chrisginoc Hi, they are both solid vehicles, Arrma doesn’t build junk. It depends on what you want to do and how much space you go ave access to for driving. Now I’m pretty sure you are not into racing or you’d be looking at a more focused kit in 1/0 or 1/8 and not RTRs. Nothing wrong with that! The Mojave is closer to being a race designed vehicle; strong and reliable suspension and drivetrain. It’s got a low wide track which makes it stable at high speed even over rough terrain. The Fireteam I’ve never owned, but I looked it up and reviewed the images and specs. It’s looks more like a “rock racer” but it’s not far off from any of the Arrma line of big rigs. Personally I’m not intrigued by the “hand brake”. I’ve had RC cars with mechanical brakes and prefer electric/esc braking since it’s more tunable. But if you want to do rear brake slides, this may be a selling point for you. They are both solid vehicles that should be reliable. The fireteam has a lot of plastic parts to brake but they are cosmetic. Aside from personal taste, they are both good trucks. You’ll have to choose the one that you think you’ll enjoy most. I hope I was some help. Thanks for watching, CJ
@ No, I’m sure they ran it and tested it extensively for heat issues. If it had needed a fan, they would have added one. If you go with the Mojave, you can always add a fan to the heat sink if you wish, but I’d test first to see if the motor is running hot. Personally I’d be more worried about the ESC getting too hot. They are more susceptible to heat damage and more expensive to replace.
CJ, this is my favorite Arrma. I have run this more than any. Hope you enjoy this as much as I do

…wait, I’m thinking about a different car. I’ve got the paddle tires for the Losi DBXL-E 2.0 Buggy which will also be going on that trip!

Thanks, looks like its going to be fun!!
Indeed, I’m having trouble finding places in the Washington DC area where I can let this loose.

@@MyRCChannel-CJScottDo you think the Mojave 6s only having a heat sink and no fan is a flaw?
