Mojave The overrated RC. The arrma mojave EXB/RTR

[RC-Dude]

I have some indistructable bodies but none on the Mojave. I feel the Mojave is eye candy and think the indistructable body is not the beauty. But I just checked on one yesterday....

The EXB body is all black. And I prefer it like that. The indestructible body is all black too . I have the Arrma original stickers. I don't think that there's much of a difference. Anyways, I prefer function over beauty . That pretty body doesn't even last looking pretty anyways once you start driving the Mojave. Even if you don't jump it no? It gets scratched and such with tumbles and regular barrel rolls etc. Unless you never drive it or something. Meh.

Or maybe a roll cage over the EXB body would look OK. You could barely tell it's there, but I already bought the Russian body.

I mos def do not like the indestructible bodies for the Mojave. In fact, I hate them. Ugly AF IMO. I’d rather buy new Mojave clear bodies after destroying the last one and have the fun of painting them.

Five Mojave’s?!?!? I hope you can multitask! If not, I hope you have four more reasonably cool basher friends.

What kind of indestructible bodies are you using? I have heard that they cause more problems than they prevent. Where do you get them and do they work good?
I own a Mojave EXB that gets a lot of shelf time cause I like to do jumps and flips. The Mojave just ain’t my cup of tea either. Nice truck and fully upgraded I just sometimes feel like it’s more trouble than it’s worth cleaning up the mess it makes of itself. It requires more open spaces I guess

Probably not the truck for you then. Maybe you should check out a Kraton or something. And how does an “indestructible“ body cause problems? Outside of them being butt ugly, I don’t think they do any harm, except on the eyes. And if you’re tired of “cleaning up the mess” you shouldn’t subject your 1/7 scale SCT Mojave to big air like a stunt truck. They ain’t really meant for that. They’re super good, durable and fun bashers. If you want to do backflips, huge sends, and skatepark annihilation than get a truck that’s more tuned to that scene.

I used to have 4 Xmaxx 8s trucks at one time. I only kept two and gave one of them to my step dad. So I just have one right now

 

[Armarookie43]

Oh yeah I have two EXB MOJAVIES

I’d like to get another one to convert to an on-road basher. I love these trucks!

You right. And I'll have my 6yr old son help me paint it. He loves doing stuff with me like that

Thank you.

And, which shop did this for you?
Was it a favor or did they charge you??

I break more body posts with the unbreakable body than I did with the stock one that is the only problem I have seen over the past 3.5 years with mine.

Are you using the new version of the body posts?
