Whether displayed in your collection or actively used in competitive or recreational bashing sessions, this trimmed polycarbonate shell delivers the quality and appearance you'd expect from an authorised ARRMA body component.
Key Features
- Polycarbonate Construction — The body is manufactured from high-quality polycarbonate material, which provides an excellent balance of lightweight durability and impact resistance essential for absorbing the forces generated during high-speed off-road driving and crash events.
- Factory-Finished Black Paint — Pre-painted in professional black finish, eliminating the need for you to spend time and resources on body painting, allowing you to install and run your RC vehicle immediately upon arrival.
- Factory-Applied Decals — Authentic ARRMA decals are pre-applied to the body at the factory, ensuring clean, professional application that would be difficult to achieve through aftermarket customisation and providing authentic styling that's instantly recognisable.
- Interior Trimmed — The body arrives with all internal details completely trimmed and finished, including wheel well openings, window apertures, and mounting points, saving you hours of careful cutting and preparation work before installation.
- 1/8 Scale Compatibility — Specifically designed for 1/8 scale electric off-road RC platforms, ensuring perfect fitment and proportions on ARRMA MOJAVE 4S chassis and compatible vehicles in this popular size category.
- Lightweight Design — Polycarbonate construction keeps overall vehicle weight minimal, which translates to improved acceleration, handling responsiveness, and battery runtime performance compared to heavier body materials.
- Drop-In Fitment — As an OEM ARRMA component, this body shell integrates seamlessly with MOJAVE 4S chassis specifications, requiring no modification or adaptation for proper installation and secure mounting.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA MOJAVE 4S Interior Trimmed Black with Decals body shell is engineered from polycarbonate, a material specifically chosen for its superior combination of impact resistance, lightweight properties, and weather durability required in competitive and recreational 1/8 scale brushless RC off-road applications. At 1/8 scale, this body complements the high-performance capabilities of modern brushless 4S LiPo-powered chassis, with the polycarbonate construction maintaining structural integrity even when subjected to the extreme stresses generated by 4S brushless motor systems delivering high torque and acceleration across varied terrain. The factory trimming process ensures that all interior details are cleanly finished to exacting standards, with properly cut wheel wells that accommodate multi-terrain off-road tyres without interference, window apertures that maintain structural rigidity around the cockpit area, and mounting points that align precisely with MOJAVE 4S chassis geometry. The black paint finish is applied using professional automotive-grade processes that provide UV resistance and durability against the dirt, mud, and chemical exposure that comes with outdoor RC bashing in UK conditions. The factory-applied decal package adds visual depth and authenticity without compromising the structural integrity of the polycarbonate, as all decals are application-tested before shipment to ensure they remain securely bonded through sustained use. For drivers running 4S LiPo battery systems (which provide approximately 14.8V nominal voltage), this body shell offers optimal aerodynamic properties and visual styling whilst maintaining the lightweight characteristics necessary for responsive handling and extended runtime. The polycarbonate material exhibits excellent colour stability and is resistant to the types of minor abrasions and scuffs that commonly occur during recreational and competitive RC driving, meaning the black finish and decals will maintain their appearance across multiple seasons of use.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this body shell compatible with my ARRMA MOJAVE 4S RC car? — Yes, this body shell is specifically designed for the ARRMA MOJAVE 4S platform and will fit directly onto your chassis without modification. The factory trimming and interior finishing ensure perfect alignment with all mounting points on the MOJAVE 4S frame.
- Do I need to paint or decal this body myself? — No, this body arrives completely finished with professional black paint and factory-applied ARRMA decals already in place, ready to install immediately without any additional painting, decaling, or customisation work required.
- What material is this body made from? — The body is constructed from high-quality polycarbonate, a lightweight yet durable material that provides excellent impact resistance whilst keeping overall vehicle weight to a minimum, which improves handling and battery runtime on your 4S brushless RC car.
- Is the interior trimmed, or will I need to cut the body? — The interior is completely trimmed at the factory, meaning all wheel wells, window apertures, and mounting details are pre-cut and finished. You can install this body straight from the box without any cutting or preparation.
- Will this body work with 6S LiPo batteries? — This body is designed for the MOJAVE 4S platform and is optimised for 4S LiPo systems. Whilst you may be able to physically fit this body on a 6S-capable chassis, the body itself is specifically engineered for 4S specifications and styling.
- How durable is polycarbonate for off-road bashing? — Polycarbonate is an excellent choice for off-road RC bodies because it absorbs impacts effectively, resists UV degradation, and remains lightweight compared to other materials. It will withstand repeated crashes, mud exposure, and high-speed running across dirt, gravel, and rocky terrain common to UK off-road RC venues.
- Can I use this body on other ARRMA models? — This body shell is specifically designed for the MOJAVE 4S platform. Whilst ARRMA manufactures bodies across multiple model lines, fitment is model-specific, so you should use this body only on MOJAVE 4S chassis to ensure proper alignment and secure mounting.
