That's pretty good. In my stock xmaxx I'm seeing around 45 min of bashing using my smc 9700mah Graphene batteries. Of course its not as much full throttle laps as you probably did so I dont think I would see 36min on these.
Love seeing the laughter and joy coming from RC! Question, I am wondering about the loose metallic sound in kraton, I am never sure what diffs should "sound" like, with mine. Trying to find out what is nominal or common. Thanks!
sometimes its the dogbones rattling, CVD's can get loose and then the pinion and spur always have noise to them. All steel drivelines are rarely quiet.
Dbxl needs a solid battery 🤔 tray in the future, for upgrade parts or wider battery chassis, with stronger straps to hold steady, nice testing and bashing.🏗️☕💪😲👍🇺🇸
@@clairecooper3848 any pics you could share? I'm about to do the same conversion so I can fit these 11,000 packs in there! Did you need to drill new holes in the dbxl chassis?
The ec5 adapter to qs8 connector I was told you should use this from castle because xlx2 pushes over 200 amps and ec5 can only handle 120amps. I wanted to do adapter just like this for my felony
That things a beast Joe, the power in person is a whole lot different than video I’m sure. Nothing beats being there seeing for yourself. USTE videos coming soon huh Joe? Do some editing
There is a trade off between runtime and weight. I would sacrifice the extra runtime for reduced weight and change the batteries for a freshly charged set.
This kraton is an absolute beast. What pinion and spur are you running? The roost are insane could watch them all day great rig has alot of power. I have just got some of those lipos looking forward to trying them out great run.👍
Castle 800kv XLX2 Combo is in stock. 1100kv XLX2 combo is not. Looking to put it in a Kraton 8S EXB. Should I wait for stock on the 1100 combo or just get the 800kv combo?
Dang did you say a 45p-47s Gearing that's a Speed Run set-up ain't it? Good Battery Test with the Castle Kraton, and not overheating the ESC and Motor with the longer Run Time? ✌️🤠👍 HFLPRCing 🌟🙏 Stay Safe and Play Healthy Brother
I'd imagine the run times will get a tiny bit better after you get them cycled a few times. I've never had a battery get a "great" run time the first time out of the box.
OK so I keep seeing these videos and yours is the only one where the crate and seems like it’s actually moving quickly. I have a second generation 1/5 scale Kraton. I bought a new much stronger servo for it and I have the XLX2 combo with the 800 KV motor to put inside of it But I haven’t jumped on the project because I have so many also I’m a little worried that it’s going to be under powered and not fast after a couple months have passed I’m thinking I already have two speed run in fractions, a stock success and the shelf queen all metal 8S so if I want high speed, I got it but if I put this XL Lex, two combo in this one fit scale, Creighton and I settle for 55 mile an hour top and speed. It better have some unbelievable torque or I am going to be seriously disappointed.
Do you have the spektrum series batteries? If so do you have a run time on those? I would like to go with a bigger set. But they make more sense for my situation. In terms of plug and play, and self storage features.
HOW?!? i've now had two catch fire!! running 1200 27/48... this last time castle warranted it they sent me a 800 and want it dropped to a 25/48.. i dont even want to plug it in again...
I just get the mamba xlx2 +800kv for my outcast exb 8s but I don't want to swap the stock 47 spur soo what combination I can run I don't care to go crazy fast I just like bashing and grass?
I noticed the jumper from qs8 to ic5 connectors. I'm putting together an Outcast exb and was planning on replacing the battery terminals with qs8. Which way do you prefer?
By the way, would you recommend ec5 connectors for a max 5 1100kv set up on the xmaxx? I was planning in qs8 anti spark but they seemed overkill and would cost me another $40 on my build
No exo man I have the gen 3 3s bashing pros running in my aarma ,v5 notorious well I dislodged one last night and but it back in every thing seemed ok finished my session out to day I go to charge them and on my dual charger it keep saying connection break well one started to charge the other one didn't upon further investigation I notice my positive wire was off looking I carefully open the too and the red positive wire is brik lose I have no cluebhow to fix because the tab that's turned down in the battery is completely out
I buy arrma kraton 8s and these batteries bashing 11000 mAh , but i want to know at how many ampere and voltage ? Voltage ok i know 14.7 V Some body help me 🥺
Can you measure the length of these batteries for me? I want to make sure if what gens says is true since im trying to make a custom tray for my dbxle.
@@ebaystore4all I actually did then scrapped it since i got huge discound on cnhl batteries. But you can fit these on some plates and hold them with velcro. Just put a piece of aluminum at the end of the tray to protect battery from spur nearby. Or simply buy vitavon tray that fits them but its expensive af since if i remember well you need their engine mount too.
@@Ev0ltion thank you! How is the extra weight? Seems like the heavier batteries will actually help balance the weight distribution more on the left side
Just started watching your channel. Had a K8S for about a year now. Your wealth of knowledge is wonderful. Thanks brother 👍👍
That was a nice long runtime with them Gens Ace batteries 👍🏾💪🏾💯
Wow... an extra 15-20min run time sounds great. 💯
yeah these will give that for sure
Awesome! Can’t believe how long they lasted! Thanks.
yeah me either lol I got a little bored just on the field lol
Battery’s worked great. I’m glad the tires stayed on this time. Lol. That trucks a beast now.👍
That's a crazy amount of run time 😱 Those batteries are huge and must weight quite a bit 🤔
yeah and yeah on that lol
” that was a dance than a splat”
God sometimes you absolutely crack me up I’m gonna use that every time I crash now lmao
That spur and pinion whistle sounds sick !!
It winds up lol
That's pretty good. In my stock xmaxx I'm seeing around 45 min of bashing using my smc 9700mah Graphene batteries. Of course its not as much full throttle laps as you probably did so I dont think I would see 36min on these.
Great video! I just ordered those same lipos to run my Primal Raminator. I hope that they do well.
Now that's a lot of power⚡
Man i love your channel, keeping them coming back. Great work mate. Blessings for the UK. 👌
Much appreciated
I was just looking at them batteries somebody was trying to sell them with a DBXLE But wasn't sure myself good vid
Need to get these for my xMaxx and make an adapter / straps configuration..🤔

@@ExocagedRC Haha , been there done that . I’ve fitted the Arrma Kraton 8S trays in mine . 👍👌👍
@@clairecooper3848 any pics you could share? I'm about to do the same conversion so I can fit these 11,000 packs in there! Did you need to drill new holes in the dbxl chassis?
@@ebaystore4all yup , the chassis needed to be drilled and the K8s battery trays popped right in .

Nice run time out of the packs for sure 💪🏾💯
love the 1/5 scale trucks! I need to get one!

Dam the size of those battery's awesome I use 8000 mah 100c in my kraton 8s gotta get me some👍💥
There is a trade off between runtime and weight. I would sacrifice the extra runtime for reduced weight and change the batteries for a freshly charged set.
I agree, many times I'll take 3-4 sets of lightweight 5000mah batteries out but they just don't have the punch these bigger batteries have.
thank you so much for the video😉 always a pleasure to watch your content 💯💯🤟
This kraton is an absolute beast. What pinion and spur are you running? The roost are insane could watch them all day great rig has alot of power. I have just got some of those lipos looking forward to trying them out great run.👍
I have the 8000 100c in mine an it runs forever it seems like but I'm running on the baja 5b rear wheels all four corners
Helluva a battery ! What's the rattling noise this truck makes ?
This truck has been abused on 12s I had to put it back together but yeah there could be something else loose in it.
The rattling is gigantic steel spur and pinion .
Cold day in florida 74 degrees... 🤣🤣🤣
wonder if those battiers will fit in the xmaxx?
no sir
I'm sure they'll fit if you don't use factory latching system 🤷🏻♂️
Ya D. I need to look into upgrading battery hold down. sick of using foam inserts. Traxxas really doesnt make there rigs user friendly
@@johngantner9314 yeah in stock form they're pretty much proprietary to the 6700 traxxas batteries
They will if you have swapped out the stock battery tray system.
Have you seen the kraton 8s exb
I have those same tires on my kraton 8s and they destroyed my front lawn. Lol On concrete once they get some heat in them it'll where like a mad man.
That's amazing how you drive with one hand. Very impressive, what part of FL are you from?
thank you, north florida close to jacksonville
@@ExocagedRC I'm in ft Myers, maybe like 5 or 6 hours away
Castle 800kv XLX2 Combo is in stock. 1100kv XLX2 combo is not. Looking to put it in a Kraton 8S EXB. Should I wait for stock on the 1100 combo or just get the 800kv combo?
I was told the EXB comes with a 39t spur and a big pinion, One guy just ran his with the 800kv at 39/39 and it was good for standing backflips.
If you're going to order from Amain, use this link to add it to the cart and check out with anything else thats in there. bit.ly/37JlGKV
@@ExocagedRC sounds like you’d recommend the 800 combo then? And I’ll definitely use your link I watch your videos almost every morning!
Dang did you say a 45p-47s Gearing that's a Speed Run set-up ain't it?
Good Battery Test with the Castle Kraton, and not overheating the ESC and Motor with the longer Run Time? ✌️🤠👍 HFLPRCing 🌟🙏 Stay Safe and Play Healthy Brother
yeah its a fast setup and would gain quite a bit on pavement but its an offroad truck so thats why I speed run on a field
Wow. Dang. That's Huge.
That what she said.
I'd imagine the run times will get a tiny bit better after you get them cycled a few times. I've never had a battery get a "great" run time the first time out of the box.
right, I'm sure they will, as it is now after about 10 minutes or so I'm ready for a different truck! LOL
@@ExocagedRC 😂😂😂 I like about a 2500 mah pack in my crawlers. Its enough time to have some fun but not so long that I get tired of it lol

Do they charge the same way are do you need special charger
Nice jumping thanks for sharing.
Nice. Whear did you get the beadlocks from?
Those are proline badlands and they come with them
Thanks.
Mann you always get the good 🔋
Ok, so you never showed the batteries inside the outcast... I opened my trays up all the way like that and still they don’t fit
Good choice batteries ☺️
Will these batteries will the arrma outcast 8s exb
When you buy the 4S Do you get two batteries or just one
How about the extra weight?
They don’t seem heavier than any of my other big batteries. I’d have to put them on the scales to see for sure
@@ExocagedRC good idea.
Will that fit into the udr? I would love to get something like that in mine.

LOL yeah those things are HUGE!!!
@@ExocagedRC that's what she said.....sorry brother couldn't resist 😂
Can't mud/dirt/rocks get in-between the spur & pinion being exposed?
Hey man I was wondering what motor and esc you run in your Capra?
Right now I have an Axe 2300kv system in there
@@ExocagedRC how expensive would that be
I just get the mamba xlx2 +800kv for my outcast exb 8s but I don't want to swap the stock 47 spur soo what combination I can run I don't care to go crazy fast I just like bashing and grass?
Do I need a 11amp charger to charge these
They’ll charge on any amp you have but lower the amps the longer it will take to charge
I noticed the jumper from qs8 to ic5 connectors. I'm putting together an Outcast exb and was planning on replacing the battery terminals with qs8. Which way do you prefer?
Depends on how much power they need. I use xt90 on most things but some need more. And those get QS8.
Where in FL are ya?
Yo! How you get those batteries? They have been out of stock for a while now.
I was lucky to get on a first order.
Are you not running in sensored mode? If so is there a reason?
Will they fit on the Xmaxx 8s?
Do these fit the X-Maxx 8S?’
No sir
Good video
Would they fit the xmaxx?
What part of Florida. Im looking for people to rc with around lakeland and winterhaven
By the way, would you recommend ec5 connectors for a max 5 1100kv set up on the xmaxx? I was planning in qs8 anti spark but they seemed overkill and would cost me another $40 on my build
Do you think it can fit the tekno et48.3?
No sir
What pinion do you have in this?
I think this has a 43/47 in it for gears
No exo man I have the gen 3 3s bashing pros running in my aarma ,v5 notorious well I dislodged one last night and but it back in every thing seemed ok finished my session out to day I go to charge them and on my dual charger it keep saying connection break well one started to charge the other one didn't upon further investigation I notice my positive wire was off looking I carefully open the too and the red positive wire is brik lose I have no cluebhow to fix because the tab that's turned down in the battery is completely out
Do u think they will fit th xmaxx
What's the length of those batteries?
Solid!👍
Can you get better rear arms for this truck ...stock ones break like an old man's hip
LOL yeah RPM makes arms for them. I have a whole set of RPM front arms in the bin just waiting for the day I need them
Can't find the battery anywhere.
It’s been coming in and selling out fast, they are kinda cheap for their size.
I buy arrma kraton 8s and these batteries bashing 11000 mAh , but i want to know at how many ampere and voltage ? Voltage ok i know 14.7 V

That capacity will outlast my luck/ skill lol. Prefer lvc before breakage
And Spur?
What am I missing? These don’t fit my outcast 8s
Yea just got mine.. 8s outcast..11000mah and trying to figure it out if u got any tips let me know... kinda really mad right now
Can you measure the length of these batteries for me? I want to make sure if what gens says is true since im trying to make a custom tray for my dbxle.

Those weigh 40lbs?! 😱🤣
