Incredible value from Arrma, can't believe it's got the EXB chassis. I like the colors, personally. I don't need literally everything to be red and black. My daughter will really enjoy it.
Not gonna lie, that does look awesome. And personally I don’t mind these colors. Everything can’t be black, blue, or red. I’m guessing this new Kraton approaches $600? I already have the 6s Arrma notorious and that thing is a beast! I added a heat sink and cooling fan to the motor and it’s just awesome to drive. I like this new kraton, but right now one 6s arrma is all my bankbook can handle. 😂 Great video, Greg. 👊🏼
It's been a few years but all my trucks are Arrma. Best value, best fun. Thanks for a great review! New body mount system I'd like to learn more....hope it works out.
Should I get the sledge or the kraton? I am going back and forth, the prices are the same right now! Never owned an Aarma. and is the EXB that much better?
That loop (I think....?) out of the vertical bowl at 15:41 was one of the most brilliant things I've ever seen with an RC car! Absolutely on point driving & what an intense machine. Great entertainment, cheers!
Sorry if i didnt get it...was the 80mph just a jab at other manufacturers claimed speeds? This one comes with the "speed gearing" from the factory, i own a big rock 6S and i have never went full speed even with the 14T gearing, it went 67mph which is super impressive, no changes needed...so, is there a mention on what to do to actually reach 80mph? thats crazy fast territory, at least for an off road truck.
Simply awesome unboxing, track rip, and skatepark bash Brother 😱!!! Stoked to see ARRMA making some EXB options standard with the V6. Emulsion shocks included and legit skid plate. Not sure about the clipless body popping loose, but you put an excellent vid together with the bonus speed run test 👊. 4s looked perfect at the skatepark. Great stuff my friend!!!
@@richduperbash2966 Thanks Brother! Still hunting for big air spots like you have. So jealous of your amazing action footage! But yeah, Arrma made some good moves with the EXB parts.
Awesome review Greg! Great looking truck for sure! Been a while since i heard the name Hobbico....I bet several have never heard of them. 😅Nearly 7 yrs since they went off the map.
This Christmas i get to buy my first Arrma Kraton and this will be the one. I also like the exb but the Kv6 moves so much better, more durable, and seems to be very beginner friendly on 4s (Im still a noob to RC). Thank you for the fun review 🤙🏽
NICE! 4S for me appears to be the sweet spot. Looks like the Kraton was running on auto pilot / cruise control. Very controllable on all the surfaces. Thanks for sharing really good video and product review. By the way the multi colors are the way to go they stand out just like the Kraton RC performance. 🏁🏁🏎️🏁🏁
The color you got is okay but way better than the other one, but nothing a can of your favorite paint can’t cure! Awesome truck for what you pay for it! I’m soooo happy they got rid of the red anodized paint on the hubs and shocks! I’m tired of using oven cleaner to strip all the red off! Glad they listened! Arrma does such a great job with upgrading their trucks instead of just painting it different colors and calling it EXTREME and adding $100 to the price like its competitors do!
I have had the first 6s kraton for 6 or so years. I have rebuilt it several times, due to have too much at a skate park. Some good upgrades for a new kraton.
They are neck and neck, now. The EXB has fancy diff covers, nicer metal shock towers (I think). This new one has the updated steering knuckle and body support. I don't think you can go wrong with either. I'm still happy with my EXB, though I feel the jealousy for the new upgrades.
I’m a fan of the colors. I grew up in the 80’s with the neon colors. I’m buying the one you got but you’re right, they should offer one that’s not as flashy for those of us that want something else
Yea but at least traxxas takes good care of you with second to none parts support and the most inexpensive replacement parts in the hobby. Once things start breaking on this kraton, be prepared to dig much deeper into those pockets for parts. I’m a fanboy of all the big brands. Traxxas, Arrma, Losi, Associated. But I find myself driving my Arrma cars the least because it’s so expensive to repair them if something goes sideways.
You pay for the arrma performance sooner or later but that’s the cost of racing . Greg been Rc ing every Rc there is for decades , I’ll bet you he tell you not many if any Rcs that Rip like a kraton . To me it’s the closest thing to ripping a dirtbike l/atv yourself
But I know what you mean my last kraton still on the shelf new and I rip different configurations of the Typhon mostly. I did run through a maxx n your right the parts are cheap diffs still good but it will never rip like arrma
@OGRCFanatic I have first hand experience with Horizons part support and they are awesome as well. They take care of you no questions asked. They also have 2 year warranty while traxxas only gives you a 3 month warranty which is a joke! So how exactly is traxxss part support better?? Can you explain what makes them better than arrma? Also as someone who owns many rcs from all the brands you're going to pay alot for parts on any 1/8 scale rc or larger. That's just how it is. You don't think that the bigger trsaxxas vehicles parts aren't expensive as well? Because they are. Also if the expense of parts is something you worry about than nothing beats their 3s line for cheap parts. This hobby in general is not cheap, period. I don't think your comment is that fair and is a bit biased. I see comments like this alot and it seems to come from diehard traxxas fans that pose as arrma owners and are deceptive about their "experience" with "their arrma" trucks.
@@cwatson42785 guys like you me could call horizon and they take care of us , problem is people take advantage of warranty most of time it’s driver error. They look at your accounts and can tell by your ordering if it’s faulty product or likely your a knucklehead. They still will take care of user errors but did you ever read how petty people are . They’ll buy car are clearance and complain the plastic mirrors broke off 😆
i was thinking they were going to a 1/7 chassis and a diff redesign but the things they did on this v6 is still pretty nice , When can I get my hands on those parts upgrades,
Nice looking truck and I actually like the blue and pink body. If I would get one I would get that and eventually paint one myself. Won't be getting it though because my experience with an arrma is not great. I got three RC cars for some light bashing, one being the outcast. And out of the three the outcast is the only one that broke something almost every time I took it out. Last thing was a massive bend in that cheap aluminum chassis.
I just checked today to see if I could update my firma 150 (SPMXSE2150) to this new firmware but it doesnt seem to be available? Any idea when or if this has been released yet??
I've wanted a basher/stunt truck for a while but not really enough to pay what they cost. But this one coming in at $600, the value is there honestly. It has a ton of EXB parts and I can't see a single thing I'd want to upgrade or change. which actually contributes a lot to that value.
Can’t wait to see someone throw in a max6 1650kv combo 😊. It’s insane fast . I did it and wanted the stock one as well afterwards so the build is almost complete on my second k6s . Hopefully I can get this body on there
Not my favorite colors, but atleast it's something different. And that makes arrma what 1 body out of the last hundred that you might not like. And there's always clear bodies. That skate park looked amazing! Thanks Greg
Oh man I hope this is the new truggy king. Arrma does basher suspension so well, it’s so plush, so now that some of the issues are fixed I hope it’s a good truck! Please tell me the diffs are better!
You not going to see that in a few rips ., I suspect they are because left out the plates . Duperbash is really good with arrma diffs he says these are strongest .
Thanks to this video I know what I'm getting now I was going to get a typhen 6S I want something that is better for stunts and stuff than my red cat machete 6S I mean it's fast as all can be and it's fun to drive but it's not built so much for the stunts it doesn't really pop wheelies That's even with the center gift stuffed with ear plug and the pinion gear change to a 19 juice but I was really considering the typhon because I already have a couple of basher similar to the Kraton but now I'm sold for sure
I’d love to see a follow up tuning video. Put some thicker oil in those shocks and check the diffs…. I’ve almost never seen a properly filed factory diff but then again this isn’t a production model
Should have went with Paint jobs similar to the brushless Mojave groms. These are ok just really liked the grom schemes. To me the 1/8 is the best Kraton version. I think its the right size for bashing and not break as easily as the 5th.
Recently replaced the 6s Mojave's V2 Spektrum esc and motor with the new Hobbywing 200 amp sensored system. Had I known this was coming out, I would have saved the money and just perforned the update. The Hobbywing system is not worth the money. The stock Spekrum system offers the same throttle control and the truck is faster with the Spektrum system. Waate of money.
So I got a new v5 kraton a couple months ago,and it came with the same servo,esc and reciever,just minus the fan on the motor,which i put a twin fan on.i absolutely love it!
@NicholasLoan i just put a hot racing adjustable servo saver on mine.also upgraded to aluminum front and rear hubs,and aluminum diff cups.thing is rock solid!
Hey if you enjoy great! Personally, I've tried the hot racing, kimbrough, and Treal servo saver on my 6s typhon and 4s kraton, and found the Treal worked best, but still not anywhere near perfect. Thankfully Arrma listens to the people
@@darrinwoodward14 I second this comment. We can’t forget that true hobbyist will eventually upgrade parts and make it their own. Out of the box “perfection” is fun and all, but is catered towards the person wanting to dip their toes or who maybe doesn’t have time to upgrade. In the end anything that gets people into the hobby is good, but if I had an EXB I wouldn’t upgrade. I actually have the EXB in my cart as we speak on the horizon website.
To answer your question. I don’t like the body color scheme. And I know they have a reason for it but will stay silent on it to see how it sells. However everything underneath is excellent except for the clip-less body mechanics. I know it’s convenient but like Traxxas body system it is annoying. Especially if you’re bashing hard having fun. And please why do they not make the cars with cvd axles all around we will loose less dog bones that way. Overall I give it 4/5 stars ⭐️
That color scheme reminds me a very particular logo/flag that absolutely disgusts me. I hope that was just a coincidence and not intentional on Arrma's part...
You missed a few things. The part that holds the pillow balls are different as well as the pieces that screw in to hold the balls in place are different
I might have to check out that skatepark on my trips to CT. I’ve been meaning to go to the Wolcott one but this looks way better. The new Arrma looks awesome but I think the Notorious looks better. I wouldn’t mind one as I haven’t had an Arrma since the release of the OG 6s Outcast.
I’ve had many wars in my head over what cars I was buying this year and Traxxas won. Mostly because I wanted an X-Maxx again as I had to sell mine a few years back to pay rent and utilities after getting divorced. Next years around the corner sooo maybe a 4s outcast and a 6s notorious will find a new home here 😂
If you’ve been eagerly anticipating a new Arrma Kraton, like me, then you’ll be excited to see the new Version 6 here: alnk.to/1XXyVNG Arrma took this release up to an all-new level by dropping the mic with real speed guarantees along with shoving a bunch of upgrade parts into this 6S powered ready to run RC truck.

not really, the Kraton EXB V2 just came out not to long ago, id get one of those over the V6
Incredible value from Arrma, can't believe it's got the EXB chassis.
I like the colors, personally. I don't need literally everything to be red and black. My daughter will really enjoy it.
How dare Arrma, to actually make some much needed changes and not raise the price by 50%! I wonder what company does things like that?😮😮😊
I think they did an amazing job with this V6 Kraton, but I do wish they had one or two more color options.
Not gonna lie, that does look awesome. And personally I don’t mind these colors. Everything can’t be black, blue, or red. I’m guessing this new Kraton approaches $600? I already have the 6s Arrma notorious and that thing is a beast! I added a heat sink and cooling fan to the motor and it’s just awesome to drive.

ARRMA just keeps nailing it!!!! thanks for posting
They’re on a roll!
@@m2cracing168 #1 Rc company in the game right now! I don't see how anyone could dispute that
@@cwatson42785 thankyou sir!
Man they really knocked it out of the park. Push button body release and that pink & blue body looks awesome.
That skate park is epic too 😎
Good stuff all around! 😎
I do miss mine ever since I put tracks on it 2yrs ago . That loop was outstanding!!
That thing as been seriously upgraded. Congrats to Arrma!
Yup! Lots of goodies on this one and a killer truck to drive!
so everyone has forgotten about the Kraton exb v2 that came out not to long ago?
I own an Army of Arrma's, looking like that army needs to get bigger🤩
More is better! 😆
arrmy
I have no idea why anyone would even think of purchasing a sledge with these kinds of rigs available 😊
It's been a few years but all my trucks are Arrma. Best value, best fun.
Thanks for a great review!
New body mount system I'd like to learn more....hope it works out.
A spare clear customizable body would be great
I have a version 2 Kraton and I love it! To see how good this truck is just blows my mind!
Did you bent the chassis on the skatepark??
This has to be by far the best basher out now!
Should I get the sledge or the kraton? I am going back and forth, the prices are the same right now! Never owned an Aarma. and is the EXB that much better?
you have some serious rc driving skills ..flawless!!
I like the color scheme! Gives late 80's/early 90's vibes!
That loop (I think....?) out of the vertical bowl at 15:41 was one of the most brilliant things I've ever seen with an RC car! Absolutely on point driving & what an intense machine. Great entertainment, cheers!
That dome flip took absolute bravery and you executed perfectly. Good bashing bud
This thing drives like it’s on rails!
Sorry if i didnt get it...was the 80mph just a jab at other manufacturers claimed speeds? This one comes with the "speed gearing" from the factory, i own a big rock 6S and i have never went full speed even with the 14T gearing, it went 67mph which is super impressive, no changes needed...so, is there a mention on what to do to actually reach 80mph? thats crazy fast territory, at least for an off road truck.

I bet you’re right! 😆 Thanks brother!
All the new v6 vids I've seen today made me take my v3 out for a bash after work this afternoon. Still love it.
This Christmas i get to buy my first Arrma Kraton and this will be the one. I also like the exb but the Kv6 moves so much better, more durable, and seems to be very beginner friendly on 4s (Im still a noob to RC). Thank you for the fun review 🤙🏽
Nice, they add EXB chassis, bumpers, and all 3 differentials are EXB also
Super cool! I think this will be my next purchase!
Awesome review and bash mate ... looks like i need me one of these !
Great review. Very useful imformation. Superb spots for the footage.
It’s good they are putting fans on motor
Agreed!
A beast!!!! Great price
Yes and yes! 😎
I have to get one!! Especially with that speed and power.

Brother, you have the Greatest spots to drive your cars, from bashing to crawling to race tracks, color me envious!! Makes for some Excellent videos👊🤩
I spend a looooot of time on the road to get to those spots. Great to hear people enjoy it.
Great driving! The skatepark was insane. 15:52 flip was wild.
I’ve only watched that clip like a dozen times. 😆
Better than the 6s exb? Getting ready to purchase and wondering if i should maybe get this one instead?
They are neck and neck, now. The EXB has fancy diff covers, nicer metal shock towers (I think). This new one has the updated steering knuckle and body support.
I don't think you can go wrong with either. I'm still happy with my EXB, though I feel the jealousy for the new upgrades.
EXB is still superior for heavy bashing.
EXB has aluminum front and rear bulkheads.
I’m a fan of the colors. I grew up in the 80’s with the neon colors. I’m buying the one you got but you’re right, they should offer one that’s not as flashy for those of us that want something else
Colors are crazy good not boring
I like the proposed dig on Traxxas MpH 😂 Traxxas mph is probably for ideal settings and relative humidity and altitude 😂
Yea but at least traxxas takes good care of you with second to none parts support and the most inexpensive replacement parts in the hobby.

Thought the same. The 6s line needs a beefed up fully splined drive system. Not buying 6s until then.
2 mojave 6s custom
1 Kraton v5 custom
Nice looking truck and I actually like the blue and pink body. If I would get one I would get that and eventually paint one myself.

You found the best skate park I’ve ever seen.
I like it wonder how long until I can buy the body mounts and body
I just checked today to see if I could update my firma 150 (SPMXSE2150) to this new firmware but it doesnt seem to be available? Any idea when or if this has been released yet??
All great upgrades that really were required. This truly is RTR. I spent way more than $50. On my V5
And the center Diff is the EXB
Posi traction limited Slip Jawn
Whats the difference between this one and the XB? I have the infraction, typhon and would love to have a real truck.
Love the new look man. Glad I waited and did not buy any of the other new models out
67mph = REAL SPEED
I thought it was going to be the advertised 65mph. +2 was a nice bonus! 😎
I've wanted a basher/stunt truck for a while but not really enough to pay what they cost. But this one coming in at $600, the value is there honestly. It has a ton of EXB parts and I can't see a single thing I'd want to upgrade or change. which actually contributes a lot to that value.
Awesome video Greg.. I'd love to see you cut some laps at RC madness.. He great to hear how it handles on track...
Can’t wait to see someone throw in a max6 1650kv combo 😊. It’s insane fast . I did it and wanted the stock one as well afterwards so the build is almost complete on my second k6s . Hopefully I can get this body on there
would love to see if any of the new parts are compatible with v5 if i ever wanted to upgrade 😄
The exb have red shocks. Only the foreteam and TlR typhon had black bodies. No more popping nice red under the body. It was arrma signature
Love the new colours and upgrades 👍
It runs so smooth🔥
The dome of doom seems dangerous with a metallic fast rc tho
I stood back far for that. Especially after the earlier incident in the video.
This is so exciting!
Didnt they do a Kraton EXB V2 with a 7075 chassis not to long ago? is this better than that or the same?
Where is the bmx track and the skate park?
Awesome video! Pre-ordered mine, and can't wait for it!
Thanks! Enjoy
@rcdriver I think you may have put out the first video on this, btw. Nice work. You've got the hook ups with Arrma!
Not my favorite colors, but atleast it's something different. And that makes arrma what 1 body out of the last hundred that you might not like. And there's always clear bodies. That skate park looked amazing! Thanks Greg
Oh man I hope this is the new truggy king. Arrma does basher suspension so well, it’s so plush, so now that some of the issues are fixed I hope it’s a good truck! Please tell me the diffs are better!
You not going to see that in a few rips ., I suspect they are because left out the plates . Duperbash is really good with arrma diffs he says these are strongest .
Looks Amazing!!!!
How good fit 6s 6800Basher Series?
Thx for all your Great Videos 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻
Very tight. Pushes out the cradle a bit, but I got it in there.
Thanks to this video I know what I'm getting now I was going to get a typhen 6S I want something that is better for stunts and stuff than my red cat machete 6S I mean it's fast as all can be and it's fun to drive but it's not built so much for the stunts it doesn't really pop wheelies That's even with the center gift stuffed with ear plug and the pinion gear change to a 19 juice but I was really considering the typhon because I already have a couple of basher similar to the Kraton but now I'm sold for sure
I’d love to see a follow up tuning video. Put some thicker oil in those shocks and check the diffs…. I’ve almost never seen a properly filed factory diff but then again this isn’t a production model
Always wanted a 6s kraton! But I would do a clear body painted custom
I hear ya
lookin good and durable
Should have went with Paint jobs similar to the brushless Mojave groms. These are ok just really liked the grom schemes. To me the 1/8 is the best Kraton version. I think its the right size for bashing and not break as easily as the 5th.
So was the body popping off a lot? Was it only on landing? That would piss me off. How would one combat that… can you tighten the spring mechanisms?
Thank you!
Nice job on the dome of doom 🙌🏻
This happens all the time just made my kraton 4s just about bullet proof then this comes out. I want one !
Duran Duran album cover. Love the new style
I'm not a big fan of that body color scheme but it's def not a deal breaker at all. The new notorious body's are looking really good though
I like the pink and blue but I agree it could be better. They should have 3 choices I think
That was a sick jump at the skate park nice vid
Yeah, that could have gone either way. Little punch of throttle right at the end rotated it enough.
I can’t decide between these two for RC Car of the year:
Redcat Ascent 18 or Traxxas Mini Maxx
Recently replaced the 6s Mojave's V2 Spektrum esc and motor with the new Hobbywing 200 amp sensored system. Had I known this was coming out, I would have saved the money and just perforned the update. The Hobbywing system is not worth the money. The stock Spekrum system offers the same throttle control and the truck is faster with the Spektrum system. Waate of money.
I like the Miami vice color scheme tbh
This is by far my Favorite RC!!
Will there be a typhon v6
So I got a new v5 kraton a couple months ago,and it came with the same servo,esc and reciever,just minus the fan on the motor,which i put a twin fan on.i absolutely love it!
Exactly. Clipless is not enough to upgrade. I have two Arrma Grom’s with clipless and it’s trash. Any dirt jams them
The servo saver is a major upgrade
@NicholasLoan i just put a hot racing adjustable servo saver on mine.also upgraded to aluminum front and rear hubs,and aluminum diff cups.thing is rock solid!
Hey if you enjoy great! Personally, I've tried the hot racing, kimbrough, and Treal servo saver on my 6s typhon and 4s kraton, and found the Treal worked best, but still not anywhere near perfect. Thankfully Arrma listens to the people

In the end anything that gets people into the hobby is good, but if I had an EXB I wouldn’t upgrade. I actually have the EXB in my cart as we speak on the horizon website.
Awesome camera work!
Thanks! Driving and videoing at the same time at the skate park was a bit tricky with this one. 😆
To answer your question. I don’t like the body color scheme. And I know they have a reason for it but will stay silent on it to see how it sells. However everything underneath is excellent except for the clip-less body mechanics. I know it’s convenient but like Traxxas body system it is annoying. Especially if you’re bashing hard having fun. And please why do they not make the cars with cvd axles all around we will loose less dog bones that way. Overall I give it 4/5 stars ⭐️
That color scheme reminds me a very particular logo/flag that absolutely disgusts me. I hope that was just a coincidence and not intentional on Arrma's part...
I prefer these color options over the "classic" colors.
Are arrma bringing out new 4s model s
You missed a few things. The part that holds the pillow balls are different as well as the pieces that screw in to hold the balls in place are different

I might have to check out that skatepark on my trips to CT. I’ve been meaning to go to the Wolcott one but this looks way better. The new Arrma looks awesome but I think the Notorious looks better. I wouldn’t mind one as I haven’t had an Arrma since the release of the OG 6s Outcast.
It’s a little hike for me to get to that park, but it’s fun! Sounds like you’re long overdue for an Arrma.
I’ve had many wars in my head over what cars I was buying this year and Traxxas won. Mostly because I wanted an X-Maxx again as I had to sell mine a few years back to pay rent and utilities after getting divorced. Next years around the corner sooo maybe a 4s outcast and a 6s notorious will find a new home here 😂
That thing is awesome!
So many cars I’d love to have but there is no where around me to drive them like you have. No big skate park or bmx track.
The livery is decent, I don’t hate it. It’s definitely different. Wouldn’t prevent me from buying one.
We need this done on the Mohave 6S Greg!!
I’m with you on that!
Cross up, Whip it, Love your old school reviews Brother
This is one of the best RC 😊love it 😊
Yeah, they did great on the updates!
I live near Chicago, does anybody know of a great place to run my rcs just like these cool places he is running it in this video?
whats the price?
I think this color scheme would have looked waaay better with white wheels.
That would look cool.
True! I kinda like the black ones though!
You can always sand and paint em!
