RC ADVENTURES - JUMPiNG A HUUGE RC TRUCK! The KRAKEN VEKTA 5 - FiRST WINTER BASH SESSiON!

- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- WHAT DO YOU DO, When the Snow KEEPS Falling?! MAKE BIG JUMPS, and JUMP BiG RC TRUCKS! The Snow is sticky, and just right, and my Kraken Vekta 5 (1/5th scale) Race / Bash Truck is ready to launch. So many of us have waited for this moment.
Fortunately for me, it is only -2c today.. and the snow is verrrry sticky...Snowball-like. The down fall of that.. is it makes my truck VERY HEAVY when its loaded up! Stock Weight of this truck is about 43lbs with Engine installed - and with this type of snow - a truck can easily weigh 60lbs at any given time.
Whats amazing about the torque on this truck is the Kraken is SO powerful, that on a slippery surface (ice and snow) you can really get some amazing wheels speed and rooster tails of snow/mud!
Im interested in the new Kraken tires that have been floating around.. I wonder if they would be any better in the snow. Either way.. I put a beat down on this truck today.. and it took every lick. The ONLY issue I had was an ERROR on MY PART.. where a Set Screw wasnt tight enough on the back camber adjustment. It allowed my axle to pop free. It was a 5 minute fix... and I was ready to go for next time.
As a side note - a complete tear down is a good idea when running in snow and ice. I always clear and re-grease my bearings - lubricating all joints and such. Also note, I use water proof servos and electronics - which make it easier to clean up after a sloppy bash session!
I hope you enjoyed this video - please, Like, comment & SUBSCRiBE!

5:34 Literally the smoothest landing i've ever seen.
You are awesome! Im 50 years old and I get just as excited running my R/C trucks! That little bit of snow would completely shut down the city I live in! We NEVER get snow in San Antonio Texas! Lots of sunny days to play outside with our R/C's! I was at the local R/C track yesterday and adults greatly outnumbered the kids! We bring our kids to flip overturned vehicles! LOL! Im used to 1/10 scale trucks. That Kracken is to big for me. I know what it cost to continually repair my 10th scale trucks. I can't imagine a 5th scale repair bill! I had to replace a shock yesterday so I got 4 bigger aluminum shocks. Seems like every run is $50 more each time. I WOULDN'T TRADE IT FOR ANYTHING! I LOVE MY R/C TRUCKS! Keep on keepin on buddy! Your enthusiasm got you a new subscriber here!
05:34 PURA FELICIDAD, que pasada, el que sienta de verdad este hobby lo entenderá
When you pulled off that jump..... Dude, I felt your Joy!!! EPiC Session!
Carmine 🚂
When you finally made the jump and started jumping up and down, I couldn't help but laugh. Keep making the awesome videos.
What a wicked rig, but I don't think I have the balls for 5th scale. Still pretty awesome, I love the level of excitement when you made the jump!!!!
Once you go fifth scale you'll never want anything else. My poor summit has been sitting since the day i pulled my losi 5ive out of the box.
I don't have the space for it :(
Try sand tires , you know that?
I think i have used 5th scale so many times
Im a 1/8 scale guy ! 5T’s tho. 🔥
Awesome Video and great Bashing with the Kraken Vekta.....thumbs up my friend 🔝👍👍
That was awesome.. Y'know? When a man like yourself who has been doing RC's for this long can still get this kind of enjoyment out of it.. 4:43 - 5:12 - 5:39 - 8:08 . That my friend is why we keep coming back..:P Awesome..:) Great run and love this rig. I think if I was going to do 5th scale I would go electric.. Thanks for sharing my friend and have a great weekend.. :)
That thing is so MONSTROUSLY bad ass!!!
This truck just makes me smile.
Thanks for another great video helped to take my mind off things if for only 11 minutes. One of my brothers passed way yesterday after his battle with cancer. Thank you
Great start to winter bashing , hurray !
You deffinately beat the snot out of it, impressive truck!
Man that is one BIG PIG! I love this truck. if I had an area big enough to drive a 1/5 scale truck, I would definitely buy one in a heartbeat.
I straight up love the Kraken Vekta.5 ill say you got me into the hobby and got myself a trail truck of my own! I watch your videos every day! Love the channel keep up the good work!
you are the reason i am getting my first fifth scale rc in a couple weeks
I love reading these types of comments :) Excellent! Be careful, and have fun! Think about putting in a KillerRC Kill Switch, if it is a gas powered machine. It can save you from a lot of heartache. Good luck!!
RCSparks Studio I've got the killer rc super bee coming with it as well as a killer rc Lipo battery bag for the Lipo receiver pack
Hell yea the camera caught how awesome that was!! Send it!!
When I see u jump up & down, left & right I get a chuckle. you really enjoy and I would too. And I get a lot of enjoyment watching ur videos!!! Because of ur videos on the Blizzard, I bought one in October 2017. Will be making some of the upgrades that I have seen you do. Another find job and a "D" for DARN GOOD!!!!!
Awesome bashing with that beast. You nailed Medic pretty darn awesome. You are probably the first one to get snow....lol👍
the 89th jump had super clean landing.
I had just as much fun watching your reaction. Sucks being alone doing something so much fun.
By far my favorite vehicle! Love it!!!!
I am so glad to see this back on site, I’ve been wondering if you lost interest in the 1/5 scale. Really thank you for showing me how much abuse these vekta.5 can take. Upgrades in the works I hope. Thumbs up on video!
Couldn't believe it went that long without damage. One tough truck to say the least! Looks like your back is feeling good! Happy to see that!
at first I was a bit (a lot) intimidated by the size of a 1:5 scale rc vehicle. THTAT'S A BIG ### VEHICLE!!!! impressive, most impressive!!!! big, fast, agile, and can take a thumping( 99% thumping) that is. but as you said that's part of the rc fun, run it , break it, fix, run it again. might have to one these big beasts. lots of fun and awe rolled into one. I must say WOW !
Love the 1/5 scale gas 👍🏻👍🏻
She and really beautiful 😍. Unfortunately not the means for the moment. Thank you again for making us dream with its beautiful toys. See youPS: Sorry for my English, I'm French
Kraken Super Truck. That look like so much fun. I follow you video content all the time. That video made my day so much better. Thanks.
I love 5th scale but then I love all scales and all RC
First proper vekta-5 bashing I've seen so far on youtube. Keep up the carnage mate. All the kuddos😎
My hands are freezing watching this !!
Dude epic jump to jump,nice job, and yes it does appear that you are having fun Sir! I had fun just watching.. thanks again. Oh ya big scale me likey.
Excellent!!! Been a while since we saw some 5th scale action.
I remember the first video i've watched from this channel........... The Short Course Truck
I would love to get a 5th scale. I grew up racing dirt bikes, trucks and buggies and I miss that smell of two stroke. It doesn't matter how shitty of a day you're having, firing up a two stroke and smelling that oil changes everything. One day I'll afford a 5th scale. Keep up the good work.
Love that one landing !!!!!!
Oh that was a great moment when you landed that huge double. That's awesome
Thank you Adam! Glad you're enjoying the film!
Rcsparks the best RC videos ever
wow that's awesome! i flew RC planes many years ago now thinking about getting into RC cars/trucks....gas power for sure!!!
Nice to see the 1/5 scale out
You should get some spiky tires for that Beast during the winter.
1/5 scale rock crawler would be sick
I would love to have a 1/5 scale but I'll never be able to afford one. But I get to see them run on RC Adventures. Thanks brother, keep up the good work.

Seems like your back is better
Thumbs up love the sound of it it's a beast
That was awesome !! Love that fifth scale but I think I'll stick to my crawlers, and I have a few monster trucks that's enough fun for me Great video thanks for sharing
Wow that thing looks like stupid fun! Took some good shots and kept on going...
Awesome video Medic!!! That machine is a beast!!!
Caught it just perfect good job Aaron!! Good jump.
That's an awesome truck man! Nice job! Sounds like it not definitely not standard! Sweet!
Such a mean rig. I want a 5th scale again
i love my fifth scales always have a blast with them great video man...!
I'd like to see the Losi do that jump.... :) Great fun this video Medic! Thank you so much for entertaining us with awesome rc!!! :))
Braxx Juventa that's a Vecta .5 , not a Losi.
Braxx Juventa Kraken Vecta.5
More power.
It's funny to watch your reaction great!!!😄
5:36 perfect jump and landing, celebration shows haha. Man you have a fun job.
I did 50 ft with my Losi, looks insane watching that huge thing fly so far! Video on my channel from a few years back.
Man! I was just thinking about that truck. That thing sounds like a dirt bike!! Keep up these bashing videos i love it! 🤘🤘. I wish i could do 5th scale. Way too rich for my blood tho.
R/C IS THE COOLEST SPORT EVER
You were sooo happy.
Love 1/5 scale keep it up brother.....
I'm really hoping for snow here in the UK... then it's time to fit the front skis to my Baja 5b and paddles on the rear! I bought them years ago - and not seen snow since :( top video Medic, great to see you having fun!
Hell ya !!! 5th scale is so much fun
I have 3 in my rc collection and still looking to get more you rock Aaron
This truck is so sick you should put a trophy truck body on it 😋
It's a scale model of something more bad ass than a trophy truck
That thing is the awesomeness!
He’s like a big kid
awesome mashine!
love to se more of the kraken.
I never thought you would bash that rc and you went all out crazy lol what a savage
Your reaction to landing that jump is priceless! 😂 Love the enthusiasm!
Hey bud just watched the video again this morning...the trucks awesome but the best part is watching how excited you get driving it..so cool
Haha! Hey Rick.. thanks so much my friend.. Yes, I love the fight, and then a victory! Celebrations every time :)
Nice video! Always good on RC sparks studios!
Any POV videos of a 1/5th scale jumping snow? or racing around? That would awesome to watch for your fans. Another kick @$$ video Medic.
Awesome bro! It's in the 40s here in va and it's cold. I can't imagine having snow yet lol I have a HPI BAJA which isn't good for snow but I have two xmaxx 8s and they are great in the snow. They get really weighed down as well! Rock on bro!
when you made the jump i jumped. up of sofa and shouting thats my boy great vid
That is so Kool, Id like to have Vr goggles on and cam on the ride it be just like you driving it man. Far Out !!
Looks like awesome fun saving for my first one now. I think its definitely a gift that keeps giving there's so many upgrades to get just incredible. Thankyou for your time keep Rolling.
YES I LOVE THIS MONSTER
I liked the kraken since it first came out... now if I could just afford to buy one
Respect! You got balls!
You are sooooo funny. I get a kick out of your videos. 1/5th is a little big for me. I enjoy my slash 4x4. It's so versatile. I can go from sct to monster truck to crawler in minutes. Although it would be nice to have one of each. I have 4. And expand or add to when possible. Love my RC.'s Now have sailboats. What a challenge. Happy thanksgiving to you, gem and your son.

That rig is awesome dude, what a beast. Needs tire spikes.
It looks pig heavy, not meant for big airs, horrible...
The video is hardcore, kudos for sharing!
Super cool, need some paddle tires for the snow.
Christ those are expensive...2 grand?! That's outrageous!
i love rc vehicles, in fact i have five of them (unfortunately only one runs at the moment) and i would love to go big scale but i just dont have the money too do so, also your collection of rc vehicles is amazing.
Very nice looking rc dude.
Love your youthful ness
That thing is sick I would love to see it in the dirt. And I would love to have one like that.
Awsome jump action!
I wasn't in to them before but after watching this beautiful rig and Everett's OBR my mind is open.
I was stoked when you landed it.
I️ love rc adventures vids
Even though I am not a big fan of winter..
I can’t wait to get some snow and take out my custom 4wd slash...
Only say custom because I welded the rear diff... makes for a fun time in the dirt, can’t wait to see what it does in the snow
Awesome channel. Love your RC videos. 👍👍👍
Dude I’m sitting here laughing my ass off. Good job.
Nice jump!!!that was a good shot with the camera too!great job bud
