Guess I gotta add a MAX4 / 70125 combo to the roller I ordered, add my proline paddles, and rip it hard next winter. Someone need to put it through its paces in winter conditions :) :) :)
The 4 link rear with the adjustable sway bar caught my eye right off the bat , and those extra large from control arms are massive good grief.. looks like it's have to add one of these vekta5e to my rc 1/5 collection lol ... great introduction man and yeah you need A/C in your shop!!!
Wow❗❗Congratulations Rocky ❗❗ This KrakenRc is beastly💪💪⚡⚡⚡ Having fun rolling this RC mate it's gonna be awesome can't wait to see the sequel in action on @Thunderrc ⚡🏆⚡🏆⚡💙
Stock tires can hold 12s easy. They’re actually great street tires. I built, converted my vekta 2 years ago and have loved it!! The transmission cover is awesome and the new rear axle setup is a cherry on top. V1 could already handle mass power but now the v2 can take even more Insane !! Kraken killed it as usual. The biggest complaint I’ve heard from people is getting parts from the website. So hopefully they can keep parts in stock now. But helluva truck! I have the vesla too and both are amazing, durable, ez to work on and fun! Looking forward to your first run w the vekta!! Keep it up thunder and congrats ! 🍻
This thing is awesome ! I love leopard motors have run 12s in my kraton for like 2 years now crazy to think it’s still running tough after daily abuse the diffs is another story 😂
@@chrisryder4709 motor is great honestly leopard in my opinion out shines castle it’s like a castle for power but reliability of a hobby wing set up also the max 4 is a great esc didn’t have it when I got into 12s but for sure the top esc for 12s
Gunna be great to have you break ( ME ! ) IN on the thing , can't wait to see it run ! I love my VEKTA5 it's a have to have for me , time to sell a couple x Max's 😵💫🤑😂
0:54 Now that's a knife. Cool looking new massive 1/5 scale you got there Thunder may you&Mama Thunder stay hydrated and be safe out there with that heat wave your having plus sun block is a must indeed.
Are you kidding me. You got one already ! 😂😂😂😵💫😵💫😵💫🤑🤑🤑🤑I'll get it in the fall , and you said 12s was to much power 😂AWSOME ! I'm very happy for you ! Try n show how you hookup batteries I've had a VEKTA5 for years
You got it first!!!!!!!! They released it today. Man that is my next build….been planning before they released it and now i will have a extra max 4 now hahaha
Thunder wow what a amazing truck. I'm proud of your brother that you have made it this far on your channel. All your hard work and dedication to this awesome hobby has paid off. I'm glad Kraken has link up with one of the best RC channels here on RUclips. You earned every penny thunder. Your a true RC Enthusiast and now a basher expert. Hopefully you can make yourself a basher expert badge or stickers one day 🤟👊
That's one insane RC buggy, I can't believe it comes with a Max 4 ESC as stock equipment and you just need a radio system. I wonder how much a vehicle like this goes for new.
I really want to know where you got that knife. Could you let me know where I can get one? I would like to get one. Just purchased the Vekta.5E roller on preorder just now. Thanks for the video 👍🏼
sick video bro question do you think you need to add fans or mount some fans on the motor for better cooling just curious im defiantly looking at getting one of these bad boys
Great share! That Leo 58113-530kv is a 20S capable motor. The Leo58113-870kv is the 12S variant. I’m curious why they didn’t just use the HW 70125 motor🤔. Do you think the HW70125 would fit the stock motor mount?
@@thunderrc Cool, thanks for checking on that! I really dig the quality of the build with this new Vetka! I think you mentioned that with 16/50 gearing, the Vetka is a 50mph RC? What are the reduction gear ratios or teeth for the diffs and input/output gears (if equipped). I’m trying to figure out the reduction by gear box like I’ve done for X-Maxx, kraton, 5iveT 2.0, and some others:) no worries if you don’t have time, just trying to decide how I would want yo run this one:)
Yes! HW70125 is a direct fitment, and the plate is designed for it. We ended up going with Leopard Motor because the cost of the HW70125 would shoot the cost of the car to well over 2K! We tested the Leopard, and it performs fantastic, lighter weight by half at least!
@@krakenrc - Fantastic job and I have a lot of experience with Leopard 58113 series motors. I agree, the Leo58113 is a great match up with Hobbywing ESCs and I have used the 870kv with the Max4 in a heavily modded 5iveT 2.0 conversion with great success… I think 67mph with 23P/62S gearing. That’s the upper limit for that motor on a 42lb vehicle but I did recently switch to the 70125 and was able to hit 91mph in the same truck (VERY different gearing though). All this to say that the Leo58113 is a perfect choice for the usable range of speed with some room to spare:)
Nice! Just tossed you a follow, never heard of a vektra before this popped into my feed. I just got into large scale RC this year with an SCX6 and I just got a Losi Super Rock Rey i have yet to take for a run as its been holding steady around 100-105*f up here in Canada. I look forward to seeing this thing rip :) cheers from Canada eh!?
DO NOT treat that thing like your Vesla lol. I loved my vekta but it’s not going to take the jumps. It’s so heavy. Upgrade the lower rear trailing arm heim joints to metal. I ripped one of my plastic ones out like nothing.
if only kraken would not do all so over wide , because here in europ we have no problem to make kurves without roll over we don't nee so over wide stuff , looks like a kid bike with additionnal side wheels ;p ;p ;p hihihiih now iii ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnn
Bro, that's amazing. I'm so glad the company jumped on board with you and hooking you up brother. You deserve every bit of it
Couldn’t agree more!

Morning...😶🌫️Until rc big large scale the sport maniac beast has ,that interesting from Boston edition
Thanks for watching in your support! This car is amazing!💯💯⚡️🔥🏆🚀
Bonniehas collect gallery ,can't send here
A computer genius managed build, remote control
I hope the tires hold up on 12s
Its Christmas everyday 😁
Ha ha yes absolutely!😂⚡️🔥🏆😱
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you link to wear the occasional sunglasses
Can’t wait to see how fast it breaks. Lol.
One bad machine can't wait to you rip it up
It a dream truck, all part are over build, this truck is too big for me because I walk with crutch :)
1.:45 in and yup I knew they gave you the first one!!!!!
NIIIIICE 👌🏻
Jesus that seems to be a perfect build. Make sure you don't hit anything. You could probably kill a horse with that thing 😂
How much run time approx with these batts?
About 30 mins 👍
Whats bigger the Rovan XLT 450 or the Kraken Vekta?
Man that is a tough one! I’d have to put both of them side by side in a future video and see!⚡️🏆⚡️🔥🔥
@thunderrc big broooo!! a size comparison video of them 5th scales would be dope 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@thunderrc love your content bro 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
💯🔥🔥👀
independant shock each wheel > solid axle all day long, it works in 1:! ...but in RC, just makes it handle like crap. All for bling!
That is badass! Look at the size of those trailing arms! Oh, Mamacita! They are thick like a Latina! 😂
💥❤🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bra…. Check that Losi Dirt bike out
I just saw that thing, man! It looks sick!😱⚡️⚡️🏆🏆🔥
Noooo he didn't break it in see u on the next one
Yes, I drove it today and it is amazing!💯⚡️🔥🏆🏆🚀
@@thunderrc got a video
DO NOT treat that thing like your Vesla lol. I loved my vekta but it’s not going to take the jumps. It’s so heavy. Upgrade the lower rear trailing arm heim joints to metal. I ripped one of my plastic ones out like nothing.
😮
For cheaper. Fid racing volts is way better
Time to put the Taylor engine in there
Max 4 will blow that Taylor gas motor out of the water.
@lilherb3864 the gasoline engine is so much better with the noise and all. Electric motors are boring.
if only kraken would not do all so over wide , because here in europ we have no problem to make kurves without roll over we don't nee so over wide stuff , looks like a kid bike with additionnal side wheels ;p ;p ;p hihihiih now iii ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunnn
The tries are way to small
Rc also 2 in 1😂
Nice truck but overpriced as usual.
