Mojave Some first hand info!

[The_Otherside]

Sent an email to Arrma because I'm a loser and have no friends.

Basically to let them know that I love the Mojave.

They confirmed the V2 will be continued for a while yet

And I planted the seed for a 1/5 scale Mojave! I'm sure it'll never happen, but at least they heard me!

Funny/embarrassing story. I emailed Tabasco to suggest a spray bottle type of bottle. They said they tried a few differnt sprayers and all clogged so they stopped trying. Hahaha.....TABASCO was my thought at that moment??????????????

As a big fan of the Mojave, that would be awesome to have some more variety of colors and stupendous to have a 1/5......

Problem is, Horizon Hobby owns Arrma.....and Losi....which has the 1/6 SBR SCT and the DBXLE 2.0....

Wish they would do a 1/5 Mojave, though

 

[The_Otherside]

I was thinking Arrma could compete with Losi...

Then you just reminded me they're all owned by Horizon...

I'm pretty sure the 1/5 Losi stuff is Nitro only? Could be wrong, but am electric 1/5 Mojave is my actual dream.

DBXLe is true 1/5....On my very short list of next.rig.....
SBR is 1/6

The $1500 Losi SCT is nitro, the others are electric....

Believe.me, I would love a true 1/5 Mojave built accordingly....

Same. I have cash. I'd quite literally pre-order in full right now!

Write them again and tell them to re-release the Senton 6s !!!! That a lot of us are still interested in it !!!

I have the DBXL-E , it is friggin heavy !!! But what a handling buggy !!

4 colors? What's that, the EXB body, red, yellow, and what's the last one?

 

[The_Otherside]

Silver. It's probably my favorite. But at $135 for the body shell, I can't justify that. Lol.

If you look at my build thread, I have a picture on there that compares the size of the chassis of the Mojave, the Senton, and an 8S Kraton.

It's easy to see which is which.

The picture also shows the bodies for each. What is bizarre is the Senton body is wider than the Kraton, and you can see how much bigger the Mojave body is vs the other 2....thus the higher price for the Mojave body.

A 1/5 Mojave body....wow....that could be $200 itself more or less

Huh, somehow never seen that one before. Is it the V1 body, or did they just make it cause it looks nifty.

 

[The_Otherside]

Not sure!

Yup...Horizon is slowly working there way to a monopoly investigation. A few more acquired companies and the will have total control.

Kidding about the monopoly thing but they are bigger than a lot of people know.

I really hope that doesn't happen. I'm not a Trax fan. They belong on the other team!
