Wanted to mention the slipper was a bit loose the first part of the vid as you may have heard 👀. Still quick as heck, but Crazy fast with it set correctly 👍
I enjoy your videos a lot. I just got a kraton 4s and I've heard to tighten the slipper clutch. I'm very new to the hobby. Is it something relatively easy to do?
@@jtmaner5900 thanks Jake 👊. It is fairly easy to tighten the slipper adjustment screw. I find it's easiest with the motor/slipper assembly is slid off the truck and I can hold the spur gear from underneath with finger pressure. You can do it by just removing the center driveshaft and using a 2mm driver though and applying firm downward pressure on the rear wheels to keep the spur from rotating as you tighten the slipper. I set mine 1/2-3/4 turn out from tight. 😎💪👊👊
One more quick question. Have you had any problems with the driveshaft plastic melting? The plastic on mine has melted a little towards the rear. Seems to be a common issue with the 4s.
@@jtmaner5900 I'm not 100% certain, but I suspect this is due to rocks or sticks getting tossed into the chassis tray and grinding into the rotating plastic 👀. I swapped mine after a construction site run. Same scenario. Found lots of rocks in tray and kept dumping them as I bashed, but later noticed my rear shaft had a sharp taper where friction had done it's thing. 🤘🤘
@@richduperbash2966 I have a question do you think that the 4S arrma kraton could handle me putting on duratrax 3.8 hatchet MTs they're quite a bit bigger than stock tires I have GPM CVDS but I'm worried that I'll trash the DIFFS
I just saw this video 12/12/19 and because of you I pulled the trigger an ordered my 1st arrma (kraton 4s) tonight. Only been in the Rc hobby 8 months have 4 other trucks but I'm very interested in the arrma brand. I guess I'll get my chance this tue/wed. When it arrives. Keep up the great content.
Thanks so much Brother 🤗!!!! I absolutely LOVE my Kraton 4s 😍. Many think it's a step down from the 6s 👀. It's really it's own animal. Very smooth and handles wonderfully. Hope you like it my friend. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
Taking it all the way with the 4S sir! Very impressive (your driving and the Kraton)! Fully agree about the durability on the 4S trucks, super solid. Really enjoy watching you sending it, improved my morning by 1000! That last jump, the double front, amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Really loved the early evening bash with the sun going down. Shows some sick perspectives in the different angles. Always a pleasure watching your vids. Not only are you a arrma basher king, but a great teacher as well. Thx brother! Rcfam4life ‼️🤜🤛‼️
Thanks so much Brother 😊!!!! I really love the evenings out there 😍. It was Crazy windy, but felt great making dust trails.The 4s is feeling fast for sure. 🍻🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Great run Rich! 😎 Excellent tip too, I honestly still didn’t have a clue what that tool was for until you said it. 😂 I always used a flathead screwdriver with a notch grooved into the tip when I had to deal with plastic driveshafts. Good to see that the platform has been treating you well. Bash on! 👊😄
Thanks so much Sam 😜!!!! It sat on my bench for weeks just like my 3670 👀. Was itching to try it, but lots of people want to see the truck running stock also. Loving this 2650kv 3674 😍. Plenty of smooth power and torque on tap with good temps 👍👍😎💪👊👊
WICKED 4s bash brother Rich!!😍She's inslanely fast with the Hobbystar and blx185 setup! Nice tip wit the Traxxas tool!👌 Love the chatter of the Katars! Seemed to be able to keep the power down for sure! Those running wheelies with the Badlands were SICK though!!💪💪Epic jumps and rips once again! The mega launch at the end was AWESOME!😜Gotta love the echo chassis slaps!! BASH on my brother!!😎👊🤘🤘🍻
Thanks so much Eric 😜!!!! I quickly got hooked on this rig😍. It's just so balanced and capable of getting the power down 👀. The handling has really shocked me especially with vented Badlands. I'm still tripping that it took so long to actually break something 🤣🤣. Loving this power combo for sure 👍. Super smooth at all speeds with Killer torque gains. The gravel pit at the end was from Sunday 😍. Finally got to go back and hammer it with my buddy Aaron 😊. Just ridiculous FUN Brother!!!! We're planning to make it off the friggin hook soon 🤣🤣😎💪💪💪👊👊
Thanks Nick👊!!!! Yeah I had tried them on the street awhile ago, but didn't realize how good this setup was until finally getting her in the dirt. Once those Katars hook up she's just gone...Lol🤣🤣😎💪👊👊
Thanks for doin this one RD. Folks just won't seem to love the 4s rigs just yet. And I get it... But man, these trucks are very much worth the $ imo and while I dont have one 4s yet, I'm a believer and loyalist.
@@crimsonfancy yes indeed Brother 👊. The 4s rigs are their own animal 👀. They're light, fast, durable, and cheap and easy to wrench on 👌. I honestly love this platform 😍. It's a refreshing change from 6s, with Crazy quickness and good times 🍻😎💪👊👊
Thanks so much Brother 😊!!!! She's moving quick for sure 👀. These Hobbystar motors have been great for me 👍. Price is right with great performance. 🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Dam Rich! You gave the mini Kraton a beat down 🤣 I love those hobbystar motors 😍 Even on 3s they are great motors. Lots more low end torque than stock 💪 Sucker was screaming with the Katars 😱💨
Thanks so much Aaron 😜!!!! You're exactly right about the low end torque💪. The power delivery feels so smooth too. The Katars were ridiculous on this setup 👀🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Hey rich missed you sun getting better helps watching you good tip on the tool for the axels I have had struggles feeling better finally tricking out v4typhon and I know my 6s Denton it rocks out the 16 tooth in kicks. Rear take care and thanks for the videos hope to see you soon might be able to drive your sidelines just kidding mark
Hey Mark 👊!!!! That's AWESOME to hear about your Typhon and Senton 😍. Missed you my last couple trips out. Those axels are a pain without the right tool 😝. I'm sure I'll see you out there again soon. Hopefully when it's not 105F outside....Lol. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
Thanks so much Brother 👊. This Kraton 4s is super addicting to bash 👀. It doesn't air out quite like the 6s rigs, but it's fast as heck and handles Killer 👌👌😎💪👊👊
LMAO 🤣🤣!!!! Thanks so much Trent 👊. I had to toss on a Traxxas rear link to keep bashing 👀. One ball end was totally bent afterwards, but it let me keep going 😜. I will say that little tool is like gold when you need it though. 🍻🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Hey Brutha I'm interested in buying the KRATON 4s and I was wondering if you could put a link to where I can get some good battery's for it ( hobby stars, or other recommendations) THANKS!
I just made a jump landing pad in my back yard. Stephan Z is helping me to put things in order. Giving advice to help me figure this stuff out. I sifted my area twice and have 15 inches deep at 8 by 4 foot wide landing area. By the time I have the truck bearings done I’ll have a superman ramp built. Thanks for all your support and ideas throughout the year. My time is coming bro. Have a wonderful day bud ❤️👊😀
@@drrcstunt thanks so much Brother 👊!!!! The internal diffs are metal and designed brilliantly 👌. The input gear is a beefy metal shaft with composite gear and composite crown gear. The teeth are massive and meshed Perfectly in stock configuration. 3 and 4s use the same front and rear. 😎💪👊👊
Friggin awesome bash Rich. Airing it out without hesitation baby!! She's ripping it out hard on straightaways too brother. Sweet upgrade to the hobbystar motor huge difference in speed department. Blistering fast with katar tires on as well. This Rig is so sexy 😍 seducing me to the point where I ended up converting my Typhon 3S to a 4S Kraton LOL 😲😂. Mounted the 3.8 Badlands on it and it's NO turning back LOL 😂. Hey I miss that construction site at the end of the video man, such a cool bashing Spot. You should have a session there bro. Mountain of Rock pile makes for some massive Sends Rich. Bash on brother
Thanks so much Chris 👊!!!! Can't blame you for building a Kraton 4s 😍. Such a Sweet basher platform. Super quick and capable 👀 with superb handling. I actually just had a session at that gravel pit yesterday😱!!!! That was a clip from it. Hopefully have more footage up. Realized afterwards my GoPro was wigging out 👀 and my new clip was angled a bit downward too🤣🤣😝. Such a fun time doing BIG sends. Hopefully get back there soon. 🍻🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Yeah 4S stock these things rip but dang 6S really woke it up. 🔥 For it's size it seems very stable also. Whatcha think about the new Sledge ? I think it's pretty tough stable and decently fast from the couple vids I've seen but DAAAMN the price tag is outrageous imo. 😆 Nice bash bro 🔥 Love the 4S Kraton even better on 6S 😁🔥👍✌️ Can't believe your buddy landed that double front flip 🔥 That was sick 🔥
Thanks Erric 🤗. That was still on 4s with the bigger Hobbystar 3674 and BLX185 6s ESC. She's wicked fast and never needed 6s 👀. I'm not convinced the Sledge is worth the 800$ pricetag. Most Traxxas rigs start overpriced. 😎💪👊👊
Great bash. Them 4s and 3s Arrma's are tough out the box huh. In planning for my "sons" first real RC, I was thinking Granite 3s brushless.... But maybe Kraton 4s? Which one you think?
WOW! I have this car and for me, it's allready a beast, stock, out of the box. .On 6s This thing is not only a Tank, it's now a Super Sonic jet to. ;-) .Nice Video Brother.
Rich, I own a V4 Kraton, I think it is a tank! BUT. Compared to my E-revo2, the Kraton seems to have a delay on controlling it. More people are experiencing this.What do you think is the best solution to solve this problem?
hey rich， i m here to ask ， was this rig are worth to have one？ thinking to have a lighweight 1/10 than 6s outcast， just still confuse to get one or not😂😂 if just as ur bash style is this enough tough out of box ？
@@richduperbash2966 I wonder if you can help. I ran 6000Mah 60c lipos through mine today and the ESC gave in, May have not been the lipo's maybe just faulty ESC. But can the standard unit run 6000 lipo's or even 8000mah 100c Lipos?
@@FullOnRC standard ESC can run anything above 5000mah 35C minimum. 60-100C is better. 8000mah will add a lot of weight most likely though. Use a temp gun to monitor temps regardless. Might try recalibrating your ESC to the controller or doing a factory reset if it's not working. 👍
@@richduperbash2966 Cheers. So the 6000Mah 60c lipo's wont have been the reason for my blown ESC, and The 8000 100c Lipos will be fine too because they are same dimensions as 5200 50c Packs I have?
Nothing can ever stop you fun bro, love the way you fix on site 😁 I get my first Arrma today, Senton 3s Blx , I'll be Soaking them A arms with WD40 for sure, carnt wait, great tip to bro 🤪 fantastic double front flip to 😱great bashing 4s test video as always 👍 Loved every minute, 👍🥰👍
Thanks so much Tony 😊!!!! HUGE Congrats on your Senton 😍👍👍. Such a wonderful all around truck🤗. I'm doing a rebuild of sorts with mine. Something about SCT is just SO FUN😋😍😍😍. I think you'll be surprised by how fast these 3s rigs are 👀🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Thanks for the great video Rich. For someone looking to get into RC would you recommend the 4S or 6s? Both seem excellent and I'm really torn between the two.
Hey thanks Chad😊!!!! That's tough to answer Brother 🤔. Both are great options. The 4s is very fast, extremely durable, and is quite simple to wrench on with it's modular design. The 6s has more brute power, more tuning options, and is better equipped for construction sites and harsher rough terrain due mostly to it's size. Both have district qualities I love 😍. The 4s is the more economical option if your budget is tighter 🤔. Really is up to you though. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 Thanks for the response Rich! I was leaning towards the 6s for the extra size and upgrades- would probably run mainly 4s on it (at least for awhile). But if you think the 4s is more durable (stock) and easier to work on then then I need to seriously consider the 4s. Thanks again for your help and advice. 👍
@@chadcasten8157 if you were leaning towards 6s don't let me sway you 👍. The 6s isn't difficult to wrench on either. Just requires a decent tool set and some practice. It's more capable at the end of the day. 👌
@@richduperbash2966 I just like the size and extra power option of the 6s- it sounds like for a first car the 4s would be a smarter move? From your vids it looks pretty beastly- especially with a couple upgrades.
I got that hobby star 2650kv I don’t now though if it’s like your one it’s a 4068 2650 and my friend give me a new in box arma blx 185 esc will the set up get my proline pro fusion Really quick that’s what I’m looking for a lot of speed thanks Rich happy Easter
Thanks Brother 👊!!!! The stock 4s BLX120 ESC has plenty of amps to feed this Hobbystar. My stock fan stopped working and they're out of stock at the moment 😝. My aim with the 185 was geared towards better weight balance and cooler temps at max speeds. It has an advantage in that department. 😎💪👊👊
Hi Rich i have Question, when i jump my 4s, the body makes really loud noises did you do somethin that yours is so quiet when ist landing, without the body mine is totally quiet, but i want mine sounding like yours? You are the best basher on RUclips 👍👍
Thanks so much Brother 👊. I reinforced my body with Gorilla tape. I clean the inner surface with alcohol and hit the tape up with a heat gun briefly after it's all layed down. The tape definitely helps take the tinging sound away. 🍻
awesome run as usual rich! have you done any tuning to the shocks or diffs? seems like you've had much better durability than I've experienced: I'd be surprised if you don't have to replace that front driveshaft; both times that's happened to me, it wouldn't stay together for 5 seconds...
Thanks so much Brother 😊!!!! I've only geared up to 15T and put bigger spacers on the front shocks. My 3s U joints survived repair no issue, but this one got munted 👀. That's why I wasn't jumping much the 2nd part of the video. It came apart atleast 3 times 🤣🤣. The last gap jump was done in 3 wheel drive. 🍻🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
That motor was insane Rich. Man I’ve got to pick myself up one of these 4S Kraton for summer. I think it will be Na easy great truck to run and a good one for guests that come along. I don’t think I caught it in another video but are those the Talion or Typhon V4 tires your running? They seem to fit the truck perfectly
Thanks so much Brother 👊!!!! This Kraton 4s is a Killer value. The performance has been a complete shocker for me 👀. It's easy to control and handles brilliantly. I actually ran 3 tires in this vid. Badlands 3.8, Talion 6s Katars, and last jump was with Backflip LP's (did it 3 wheel drive cuz my driveshaft had let go). 🍻😎💪👊👊
Hey rich what 4s capable combo would you highest recommend for the 3s line? I have a Big Rock and Vorteks. Mainly asking for the big rock I wanna run it on 4s. The hobbystar 3670 is always out of stock, thanks dude 👊🏼💪🏼🤙🏼
Any 120-150A ESC will work paired with a 3670-3674 motor rated for 4s. The Hobbystar is often out of stock because it works Killer. Might check for a Rocket motor. 🍻
@@richduperbash2966 yea I’m gonna get hobbystar or their leopard motor. But do you think the max 10 SCT 120A will kinda struggle or should I just go with the max 8?
@@richduperbash2966 so what do you do to keep the driveshafts from popping out? Literally can’t go 10ft before one is popping out… is there any upgrades or tricks? Does yours do this?
@@miketye2805 I have blown very few driveshafts. Aside from keeping these rigs light and using the throttle somewhat judiciously on takeoffs, making sure the slipper isn't locked is very important. I generally run mine 1/4-1/2 turn out from snug.
hi rich. i need your opinion on 2 trucks. thinking to get now EXB over the typhon 6s. do both have those rear diff issues or really just the Kraton? I know the Kraton can go very fast on the dirt and street. of course typhon is faster but also can break easy at high speeds. I have the Notorious 6s so i can always just convert that into a typhon anyway with some new arms and suspension very easy and shock towers. getting the EXB ill have to do the shims on the diff right away or should i just wait and break it first?
The Typhon is probably the most durable overall due to the compact design 💪. You'd also need the shorter links, driveshafts, mounts, body, and smaller side skirts to convert your Noto to a Typhon 🤔. You could keep the bigger Noto hubs and stub axels for about an inch of extra width 👌. ARRMA is releasing new planetary gear spacers to eliminate the issues many have had with the rear EXB diff. The Typhon has straight cut diff gears with the traditional internals. They hold fine unless you put huge wheels on and abuse them. I think the bigger question is whether you want the Kraton or Typhon 6s 🤔. Both are fantastic in my opinion. Just keep in mind the Typhon can't tackle the rougher terrain as well as the Kraton. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 thank you Rich. Yeh I'm gonna go with the EXB since it's bigger and just looks bad ass. I have some extra parts which I got really cheap BLX 2050 motor and 185 esc from a friend. Stock electronics. Just gonna buy a nice servo. I wanted the typhon for speed runs but after few time ls with typon 3S they get alittle boring plus I can easy crash it and pretty much have to rebuild the car since they go over 70 so easily. EXB sounds more fun and handling is great as you said in your videos. I can still do speed run with exb I already got a 40T spur and 27 pinion gear that should easily get over 70 if diff hold up. Hopefully it will work with the EXB. Would you recommend I check fluid in the diffs before even using the truck ? Or just shim it up first as well as diff fluids.
@@paulrakis I honestly didn't check mine the first couple runs, but it doesn't hurt to open them up to be sure 👍. The EXB diffs take a little practice to reassemble correctly. I recommend watching ARRMA's latest how to diff build video. Chris did a solid job with it. 🍻ruclips.net/video/AYXinRONWxk/видео.html
@@richduperbash2966 great thanks again will do. Yeh I just saw it I definitely do t want to mess that up. Il make sure to do a nice video on it as well.
Thank u for all your help king Would u ever consider changing or adding more shock oil to the 4s kraton . I opened them up and theres not much oil at all. Again your a huge asset to this $$ hoppy. Happy thanksgiving 2 u and fam🤘🏻👍👍
You bet Brother 👊. Happy Thanksgiving to you too 🍻. I'm pretty happy with the stock 4s oil weight. You might want to add oil, however I recall there's a fill line you don't want to really go past do to the design. Razor RC did a great build video on this awhile back. 🤙🤙
What is THIS ABOUT THE SLIPPER DOES IT ALWAYS COME LOOSE AND IS IT SOMETHING I REALLY NEED TO WORRY ABOUT AND THE SHOCKS LEAKING AND THE SERVO THESE ARE SOME OF THE PARTS ON THE 4S 4X4 KRATON I'M CONCERNED ABOUT WILL IT BE A PROBLEM BECAUSE THATS WHAT I'VE BEEN HEARING ON LINE FROM OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE 4S KRATON MAYBE THEY ARE JUST DRIVING THERE BUGGY TO HARD WHICH I DON'T DO SO WHAT DO U THINK ABOUT ALL OF THIS I'M JUST REALLY EXCITED THATS ALL CAN'T WAIT TO GET THE 4S KRATON BUGGY!!!!
I'm still running the stock servo and shocks. The 3s shocks leak, but I haven't had a problem with my 4s ones 🤔. I think ARRMA made a slight tweak to the slipper clutch after the first batch of rigs. Mine hasn't been a problem. It's easy to tighten or add a drop of thread lock to the set screw if needed. 🍻
My goodness that thing is movin bro holy shit wow now I'm definitely interested into gettin one she a lil ripper for sure happy bashing my friend👍👍🤙😎🤪😜😝🙈🙉🙊👊✌
Thanks so much Chris 😜!!!! The Kraton 4s is like a dang hover craft 👀. It winds up and just rips over terrain Killer 😱. It's Crazy fast with the Katars on. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
Nice set up Rich !! The Hobbystar gear seems to be quality. I might try to get them to ship a Lipo to Aus. Want a 6S hardcase 😊 Sick run man these 4S rigs look badass I have to hold myself back every time I go into the LHS 🤙🏼👍🏼😁
Thanks so much Cam😜!!!! I'm absolutely stoked with Hobbystar. Their Lipos, motors, and other parts have been AWESOME 😍. Priced very reasonably with solid performance and wonderful customer service 👌. Not sure they ship internationally, but definitely worth a shot 👊. This 4s platform is just MAD Fun Brother. So incredibly FAST 👀 and planted at speed. I'm thinking it has a leg up on the big brothers in this area with the right set-up. 🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
I watch your videos and wonder how you can keep up with what you're doing. So fast paced!😮 I have the Kraton 4s and for my stay on the ground driving, I think I like it as much as the 6s. Did you put any spacers on the shocks to stiffen things up? Keep on doing what you do so I can enjoy it. Thanks.👍👍
Thanks so much Brother 😊!!!! I really prefer running at speed 👍. Keeps me focused in on what's happening. I did swap in the biggest extra front shock spacers. Took off the smaller ones. 😎💪👊👊
Thanks a lot for the info. Feels like it needs a stiffer suspension especially on the front. It rolls so much in the turns compared to the 6s version. What it really needs are anti-sway bars. Sure wish someone with connections would put a bug in someone's ear.😁 I've gotton too old and with the hands swelling and hurting, I can do nothing at speed, except fall down. I'm pretty damn fast at that.😮 Again thanks for your reply, it means a lot to us here in Grumpyland.👀
Yes, I think I was at the time. These rigs don't have sway bars and are pretty light. Not sure what steering is possible, but she gets the job done for my bashing needs without running into solid objects. 😎💪👊👊
Rich Duperbash for sure brother! Love your videos, love watching you rip these rigs with your robot engineered hands, that’s how you drive so well right? Anyway, looking forward to more!
hey I have a losi 8ight T 2.0 that I converted to electric. I'm going to run 4s and I'm looking at a 2300kv motor. Should I get a motor with higher KV or not? thanls
The Kraton 4s is addicting to drive 😍. Especially with high traction wheels. My heart is always towards 6s, but these 3-4s rigs wind up something fierce. Just pure RC FUN 🤗👍👍😎💪👊👊
I'm thinking you'd need to either raise the body or fit the ESC between the motor and ESC stand over the chassis 🤔. Might check on the ARRMA 3 and 4s Facebook Forum. 👌👌😎💪👊👊
What would I need to change to turn my 4s into a 6s ? Will the 185 esc run a 6s motor and if so can I just get the sAme 6s motor that is in my Typhon 6s ? I’ve already upgraded both my diffs and yokes to metal hot racing
The BLX185 ESC is from the 6s rigs. You could certainly run the 6s 2050kv Typhon 6s motor with it. Gearing with just depend, but it should rip with the stock pinion. 🍻
@@Gazelle0078 no I don't. Might check GPM out of China. They make all sorts of upgrades. Just realize that chassis itself was designed to support lighter components. Each piece of aluminum puts further burden on it. That's fine for speed runs, but will lead to other breakages out bashing.
@@richduperbash2966 I upgraded both yokes and diffs to hot racing aluminum already so that should help. I’m worried with the 6s power that it’s going to shred the drive shaft. Traxxas makes an aluminum drive shaft but I don’t know if the inside is shaped the same. If it’s to long it could be cut to length
@@Gazelle0078 just realize the stock telescopic driveshaft allows the chassis to flex without hindrance or damage.. It's honestly one of the best features with the 3&4s line. I would try 6s and see how it goes. My Traxxas driveshafts always bent 😝. Used to drive me nuts
No I haven't. I replaced one awhile back because a rock wore a groove in it. If the bearings are maintained and rocks don't jam under or alongside the shaft, I've had no issues. Running rubber sealed bearings in the slipper housing and input gears front and rear is a must. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Hey RICH Should i get the New motor like yours could u write it down for hobby star 36 74 with the protexBatty charger or overlander battery Charger which battery should i GET to match up WITH BATTERY TO MAKE TRUCK FASTER AND MORE DURABLE NEED YOUR HELP BIG TIME BROTHER PLEASE AND THANK YOU RICH!!
I'm honestly not at expert on the different chargers Troy. I love my Hobbystar motors and Lipos. That's the 3674 2650kv from RCJuice. Just go to their website and search 3674. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Here's the link to the motor. It appears the 2650 is currently out of stock 🤔. You could grab the 2200kv and just gear up a couple teeth. Hot Racing makes an adjustable motor mount that will allow you to use more gearing options. 😎💪👊👊www.rcjuice.com/hobbystar-3674-4-pole-brushless-sensorless-motor-v2-waterproof.html
Mr. Duperbash keeping front tyre wear to a minimum again, and racking up the frequent flyer points. I have said this before, but this platform started life as a cuddly little brushed rtr with an included battery and charger. And here we have this sort of behaviour.
Arrma needs to revise the arms on this car or at least provide the replacements for dirt cheap while pumping up production around the clock. Everyone who owns the car will break them and as proof they are sold out everywhere. From my piddly incident that broke mine, I can see that this part will need to be swapped out almost as often as lipos. Rich’s awesome videos make this car look like a tank, but it seems far more fragile in reality.
Wanted to mention the slipper was a bit loose the first part of the vid as you may have heard 👀. Still quick as heck, but Crazy fast with it set correctly 👍
I enjoy your videos a lot. I just got a kraton 4s and I've heard to tighten the slipper clutch. I'm very new to the hobby. Is it something relatively easy to do?
@@jtmaner5900 thanks Jake 👊. It is fairly easy to tighten the slipper adjustment screw. I find it's easiest with the motor/slipper assembly is slid off the truck and I can hold the spur gear from underneath with finger pressure. You can do it by just removing the center driveshaft and using a 2mm driver though and applying firm downward pressure on the rear wheels to keep the spur from rotating as you tighten the slipper. I set mine 1/2-3/4 turn out from tight. 😎💪👊👊
One more quick question. Have you had any problems with the driveshaft plastic melting? The plastic on mine has melted a little towards the rear. Seems to be a common issue with the 4s.

The mega launch at the end was AWESOME!😜Gotta love the echo chassis slaps!! BASH on my brother!!😎👊🤘🤘🍻
Thanks so much Eric 😜!!!! I quickly got hooked on this rig😍. It's just so balanced and capable of getting the power down 👀. The handling has really shocked me especially with vented Badlands. I'm still tripping that it took so long to actually break something 🤣🤣. Loving this power combo for sure 👍. Super smooth at all speeds with Killer torque gains. The gravel pit at the end was from Sunday 😍. Finally got to go back and hammer it with my buddy Aaron 😊. Just ridiculous FUN Brother!!!! We're planning to make it off the friggin hook soon 🤣🤣😎💪💪💪👊👊
Great video and awesome truck 👍
That thing is wicked fast brother 😱🤣🤣🤣❤ another awesome video! 👊👊👍
Thats a seriously Hot Car, that sucker is smoking it up !!! Nice Running!! Aiiirrrrr Duperbash!!!
Thanks so much Phill😊!!!! It's probably as fast as any of them 👀. Doesn't have brute 6s power, but doesn't need it either. 🍻🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Once again Duperbashing the shit outta the rigs! I cant believe just how fast that thing is moving....insane
Dude all this time I never knew what that tool was for. Thanks for the insight 🤯
You bet Brother 👊!!!! Makes holding and snapping the yokes back together super easy. 😎💪👊👊
Bad ass bash Rich. Those Talion tires just look so right on that beast
Thanks Nick👊!!!! Yeah I had tried them on the street awhile ago, but didn't realize how good this setup was until finally getting her in the dirt. Once those Katars hook up she's just gone...Lol🤣🤣😎💪👊👊

You da man bro...that thing rips. Thanks for the video buddy.
Thanks Brother 👊!!!! She's definitely a Ripper. Can't believe it went so many bashes without even a small breakage 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
Thanks for doin this one RD. Folks just won't seem to love the 4s rigs just yet. And I get it... But man, these trucks are very much worth the $ imo and while I dont have one 4s yet, I'm a believer and loyalist.
It tabletops for 30 feet. Who wouldn't want one of these lighter blasters?.... and less cost to run all around.

Wow. That thing rips and your skillz are 👍💪
Thanks so much Raul😊!!!! She's feeling pretty quick with this setup. Turning into a 4s sleeper 👀🤣🤣😎💪👊👊
Dam Rich! You gave the mini Kraton a beat down 🤣 I love those hobbystar motors 😍 Even on 3s they are great motors. Lots more low end torque than stock 💪 Sucker was screaming with the Katars 😱💨
Thanks so much Aaron 😜!!!! You're exactly right about the low end torque💪. The power delivery feels so smooth too. The Katars were ridiculous on this setup 👀🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Perfect set up bro!!!!!!
The Talion tires are a great balance
@@philthyco1 The Katar tires make sense on this 4s rig. Lighter and they really get down on it. Results are winners

Hey rich missed you sun getting better helps watching you good tip on the tool for the axels I have had struggles feeling better finally tricking out v4typhon and I know my 6s Denton it rocks out the 16 tooth in kicks. Rear take care and thanks for the videos hope to see you soon might be able to drive your sidelines just kidding mark
Hey Mark 👊!!!! That's AWESOME to hear about your Typhon and Senton 😍. Missed you my last couple trips out. Those axels are a pain without the right tool 😝. I'm sure I'll see you out there again soon. Hopefully when it's not 105F outside....Lol. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
Awesome video like always ! Thank u brotha
Thanks so much Brother 😊!!!! Happy bashing. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
Great vid!! I was wondering, was the new ESC required for the new motor?
Thanks my friend 😊!!!! The bigger BLX185 6s ESC was not required with that motor. Just wanted maximum efficiency with more amp potential. 😎💪👊👊
Awesome rip Rich,I love my Kraton 4s.Been wondering about putting the Katars on it.Figured it would help with handling and lighten up the truck👍🏻👍🏻
Wicked rip as usual. Awesome display of the 4s line capabilities with upgrades even. Bash on 😎😎
Thanks so much Brother 👊. This Kraton 4s is super addicting to bash 👀. It doesn't air out quite like the 6s rigs, but it's fast as heck and handles Killer 👌👌😎💪👊👊
Awesome control as always 😎 sick bash.
Traxxas to the rescue. Who would've thought 😂
Bash on bro 👊👍
LMAO 🤣🤣!!!! Thanks so much Trent 👊. I had to toss on a Traxxas rear link to keep bashing 👀. One ball end was totally bent afterwards, but it let me keep going 😜. I will say that little tool is like gold when you need it though. 🍻🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Would the hobbystar motor work with the stock ESC? Might try it.
Rich that power combo rocks🤘🏻and plenty 💪🏻💪🏻sick vid once again brother ✌🏻🤪👊🏻🍻
Hey Brutha I'm interested in buying the KRATON 4s and I was wondering if you could put a link to where I can get some good battery's for it ( hobby stars, or other recommendations) THANKS!
I just made a jump landing pad in my back yard.
Stephan Z is helping me to put things in order. Giving advice to help me figure this stuff out.
I sifted my area twice and have 15 inches deep at 8 by 4 foot wide landing area.
By the time I have the truck bearings done I’ll have a superman ramp built.
Thanks for all your support and ideas throughout the year.
My time is coming bro. Have a wonderful day bud ❤️👊😀
Really fast rich wow 👍, great jumps and backflip spectacular💪💪
you who are an expert in arrma, the differentials of the 4 are in metal right?
are they also good on 4x4 granite?
@@drrcstunt thanks so much Brother 👊!!!! The internal diffs are metal and designed brilliantly 👌. The input gear is a beefy metal shaft with composite gear and composite crown gear. The teeth are massive and meshed Perfectly in stock configuration. 3 and 4s use the same front and rear. 😎💪👊👊
Perfect rich really kind thanks a lot👍👍😁, so I mount them in my granite💪
Nice video I’ve been looking at the kraton 4s and I think you just made up my mind!!! Lol 😂
Thanks Brother 👊!!!! The 4s is very underrated I think 🤔. It's turned out to be one of fastest, best handling, and most durable rigs I own 👀😎💪👊👊
Yeah he’s made your mind up with his car that has that different motor in it 😂😂😂
Stripping diffs is a big problem with them
Crazy fast!!! How were the temps running the 2650kv on 4S? What size is the spur gear? 😎😎👍👍
Thanks Brother 👊. Just saw this. Using the stock 57T steel 4s spur. Temps were fine. Think around 140F. 😎💪👊👊
Friggin awesome bash Rich. Airing it out without hesitation baby!! She's ripping it out hard on straightaways too brother. Sweet upgrade to the hobbystar motor huge difference in speed department. Blistering fast with katar tires on as well. This Rig is so sexy 😍 seducing me to the point where I ended up converting my Typhon 3S to a 4S Kraton LOL 😲😂. Mounted the 3.8 Badlands on it and it's NO turning back LOL 😂. Hey I miss that construction site at the end of the video man, such a cool bashing Spot. You should have a session there bro. Mountain of Rock pile makes for some massive Sends Rich. Bash on brother
Thanks so much Chris 👊!!!! Can't blame you for building a Kraton 4s 😍. Such a Sweet basher platform. Super quick and capable 👀 with superb handling. I actually just had a session at that gravel pit yesterday😱!!!! That was a clip from it. Hopefully have more footage up. Realized afterwards my GoPro was wigging out 👀 and my new clip was angled a bit downward too🤣🤣😝. Such a fun time doing BIG sends. Hopefully get back there soon. 🍻🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Awesome video as always
Yeah 4S stock these things rip but dang 6S really woke it up. 🔥 For it's size it seems very stable also. Whatcha think about the new Sledge ? I think it's pretty tough stable and decently fast from the couple vids I've seen but DAAAMN the price tag is outrageous imo. 😆
Nice bash bro 🔥 Love the 4S Kraton even better on 6S 😁🔥👍✌️
Can't believe your buddy landed that double front flip 🔥 That was sick 🔥
Thanks Erric 🤗. That was still on 4s with the bigger Hobbystar 3674 and BLX185 6s ESC. She's wicked fast and never needed 6s 👀. I'm not convinced the Sledge is worth the 800$ pricetag. Most Traxxas rigs start overpriced. 😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 Oh my bad I thought you said it was on 6S. lol Yeah I think it's over priced.
Great bash.
Them 4s and 3s Arrma's are tough out the box huh.
In planning for my "sons" first real RC, I was thinking Granite 3s brushless.... But maybe Kraton 4s?
Which one you think?
WOW! I have this car and for me, it's allready a beast, stock, out of the box. .On 6s This thing is not only a Tank, it's now a Super Sonic jet to. ;-) .Nice Video Brother.
Great bash Rich, I must admit that Kraton 4s is verry tempting 💪🌞🌞😎
Rich, I own a V4 Kraton, I think it is a tank! BUT. Compared to my E-revo2, the Kraton seems to have a delay on controlling it. More people are experiencing this.What do you think is the best solution to solve this problem?
Wow 😳 unbelievable " wicked bro , intro is class 💯🏆💯
Thanks so much Brother 🤗. The Kraton 4s is a little Ripper 😍🍻😎💪👊👊
Sweet bashing brother. Down right impressive 💪💪👍
hey rich， i m here to ask ， was this rig are worth to have one？ thinking to have a lighweight 1/10 than 6s outcast， just still confuse to get one or not😂😂 if just as ur bash style is this enough tough out of box ？
man! i will probably just have to get one of these. the kraton 6s is too much money lol
GREAT BASH!
Should've bought my wife a 4s instead of a 6s. But I love my 6s rigs. U have so many companies near u. Lucky for me I'm only 20min away from M2c 😁👍
My Arrma Kraton 4s is pure fun factor five!
No doubt Paul😊!!!! The Kraton 4s quickly became a favorite of mine. It's incredibly capable, fast, and easy to wrench on. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 I wonder if you can help. I ran 6000Mah 60c lipos through mine today and the ESC gave in, May have not been the lipo's maybe just faulty ESC. But can the standard unit run 6000 lipo's or even 8000mah 100c Lipos?
@@FullOnRC standard ESC can run anything above 5000mah 35C minimum. 60-100C is better. 8000mah will add a lot of weight most likely though. Use a temp gun to monitor temps regardless. Might try recalibrating your ESC to the controller or doing a factory reset if it's not working. 👍
@@richduperbash2966 Cheers. So the 6000Mah 60c lipo's wont have been the reason for my blown ESC, and The 8000 100c Lipos will be fine too because they are same dimensions as 5200 50c Packs I have?
So does the esc make the car go faster? Just wanted to know why you changed the esc to begin with.
Sick bro it's definitely moving now 💯💯💯💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🔥🔥
Thanks Brother 👊!!!! She's a Screamer 👀. Can't wait to get out bashing again. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Tony 😊!!!! HUGE Congrats on your Senton 😍👍👍. Such a wonderful all around truck🤗. I'm doing a rebuild of sorts with mine. Something about SCT is just SO FUN😋😍😍😍. I think you'll be surprised by how fast these 3s rigs are 👀🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Awesome bash bro 👍👍👍
I heard this spot is in the Sacramento area is. That true
Yes indeed 👍. Township 9 bike park. 7st and Richards BLVD. 😎💪👊👊
Thanks for the great video Rich. For someone looking to get into RC would you recommend the 4S or 6s? Both seem excellent and I'm really torn between the two.
Hey thanks Chad😊!!!! That's tough to answer Brother 🤔. Both are great options. The 4s is very fast, extremely durable, and is quite simple to wrench on with it's modular design. The 6s has more brute power, more tuning options, and is better equipped for construction sites and harsher rough terrain due mostly to it's size. Both have district qualities I love 😍. The 4s is the more economical option if your budget is tighter 🤔. Really is up to you though. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 Thanks for the response Rich! I was leaning towards the 6s for the extra size and upgrades- would probably run mainly 4s on it (at least for awhile). But if you think the 4s is more durable (stock) and easier to work on then then I need to seriously consider the 4s. Thanks again for your help and advice. 👍
@@chadcasten8157 if you were leaning towards 6s don't let me sway you 👍. The 6s isn't difficult to wrench on either. Just requires a decent tool set and some practice. It's more capable at the end of the day. 👌
@@richduperbash2966 I just like the size and extra power option of the 6s- it sounds like for a first car the 4s would be a smarter move? From your vids it looks pretty beastly- especially with a couple upgrades.
I got that hobby star 2650kv I don’t now though if it’s like your one it’s a 4068 2650 and my friend give me a new in box arma blx 185 esc will the set up get my proline pro fusion Really quick that’s what I’m looking for a lot of speed thanks Rich happy Easter
What battery are you using?
Pretty sure I was running a Hobbystar 6500mah 4s hardpack. Ovonic makes quality packs also. 🍻
Great vid.Would be nice,to see it with the stock esc on 4s,to compare how much more power can we get for less than 40$ worth of motor
Thanks Brother 👊!!!! The stock 4s BLX120 ESC has plenty of amps to feed this Hobbystar. My stock fan stopped working and they're out of stock at the moment 😝. My aim with the 185 was geared towards better weight balance and cooler temps at max speeds. It has an advantage in that department. 😎💪👊👊
Hi Rich i have Question, when i jump my 4s, the body makes really loud noises did you do somethin that yours is so quiet when ist landing, without the body mine is totally quiet, but i want mine sounding like yours?
You are the best basher on RUclips 👍👍
Thanks so much Brother 👊. I reinforced my body with Gorilla tape. I clean the inner surface with alcohol and hit the tape up with a heat gun briefly after it's all layed down. The tape definitely helps take the tinging sound away. 🍻
awesome run as usual rich! have you done any tuning to the shocks or diffs? seems like you've had much better durability than I've experienced: I'd be surprised if you don't have to replace that front driveshaft; both times that's happened to me, it wouldn't stay together for 5 seconds...
Thanks so much Brother 😊!!!! I've only geared up to 15T and put bigger spacers on the front shocks. My 3s U joints survived repair no issue, but this one got munted 👀. That's why I wasn't jumping much the 2nd part of the video. It came apart atleast 3 times 🤣🤣. The last gap jump was done in 3 wheel drive. 🍻🤘🤘😎💪👊👊
Insanely fast!
Just how we like it 🤣🤣👀. I LOVE this platform Jason 🤗!!! Absolute screamer. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Skills Rich🎯😎
That motor was insane Rich. Man I’ve got to pick myself up one of these 4S Kraton for summer. I think it will be Na easy great truck to run and a good one for guests that come along. I don’t think I caught it in another video but are those the Talion or Typhon V4 tires your running? They seem to fit the truck perfectly
Thanks so much Brother 👊!!!! This Kraton 4s is a Killer value. The performance has been a complete shocker for me 👀. It's easy to control and handles brilliantly. I actually ran 3 tires in this vid. Badlands 3.8, Talion 6s Katars, and last jump was with Backflip LP's (did it 3 wheel drive cuz my driveshaft had let go). 🍻😎💪👊👊
Nice brother Rich I sold my 6s Kraton thinking about the 4s version Outcast 🤔👊
I think you'd love these 4s rigs Kizzel 😜!!!! Fast, fun, durable, and super easy to wrench on 👍. Parts are cheap too. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
Hey rich what 4s capable combo would you highest recommend for the 3s line? I have a Big Rock and Vorteks. Mainly asking for the big rock I wanna run it on 4s. The hobbystar 3670 is always out of stock, thanks dude 👊🏼💪🏼🤙🏼
Any 120-150A ESC will work paired with a 3670-3674 motor rated for 4s. The Hobbystar is often out of stock because it works Killer. Might check for a Rocket motor. 🍻
@@richduperbash2966 yea I’m gonna get hobbystar or their leopard motor. But do you think the max 10 SCT 120A will kinda struggle or should I just go with the max 8?
@@miketye2805 I've heard the Max10 is reliable, but it's almost always better to have some extra amperage. 👍
@@richduperbash2966 so what do you do to keep the driveshafts from popping out? Literally can’t go 10ft before one is popping out… is there any upgrades or tricks? Does yours do this?
@@miketye2805 I have blown very few driveshafts. Aside from keeping these rigs light and using the throttle somewhat judiciously on takeoffs, making sure the slipper isn't locked is very important. I generally run mine 1/4-1/2 turn out from snug.
hi rich. i need your opinion on 2 trucks. thinking to get now EXB over the typhon 6s. do both have those rear diff issues or really just the Kraton? I know the Kraton can go very fast on the dirt and street. of course typhon is faster but also can break easy at high speeds. I have the Notorious 6s so i can always just convert that into a typhon anyway with some new arms and suspension very easy and shock towers. getting the EXB ill have to do the shims on the diff right away or should i just wait and break it first?
The Typhon is probably the most durable overall due to the compact design 💪. You'd also need the shorter links, driveshafts, mounts, body, and smaller side skirts to convert your Noto to a Typhon 🤔. You could keep the bigger Noto hubs and stub axels for about an inch of extra width 👌. ARRMA is releasing new planetary gear spacers to eliminate the issues many have had with the rear EXB diff. The Typhon has straight cut diff gears with the traditional internals. They hold fine unless you put huge wheels on and abuse them. I think the bigger question is whether you want the Kraton or Typhon 6s 🤔. Both are fantastic in my opinion. Just keep in mind the Typhon can't tackle the rougher terrain as well as the Kraton. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 thank you Rich. Yeh I'm gonna go with the EXB since it's bigger and just looks bad ass. I have some extra parts which I got really cheap BLX 2050 motor and 185 esc from a friend. Stock electronics. Just gonna buy a nice servo. I wanted the typhon for speed runs but after few time ls with typon 3S they get alittle boring plus I can easy crash it and pretty much have to rebuild the car since they go over 70 so easily. EXB sounds more fun and handling is great as you said in your videos. I can still do speed run with exb I already got a 40T spur and 27 pinion gear that should easily get over 70 if diff hold up. Hopefully it will work with the EXB. Would you recommend I check fluid in the diffs before even using the truck ? Or just shim it up first as well as diff fluids.
👍👍👊👊👊
@@paulrakis I honestly didn't check mine the first couple runs, but it doesn't hurt to open them up to be sure 👍. The EXB diffs take a little practice to reassemble correctly. I recommend watching ARRMA's latest how to diff build video. Chris did a solid job with it. 🍻ruclips.net/video/AYXinRONWxk/видео.html
@@richduperbash2966 great thanks again will do. Yeh I just saw it I definitely do t want to mess that up. Il make sure to do a nice video on it as well.
Thank u for all your help king
Would u ever consider changing or adding more shock oil to the 4s kraton . I opened them up and theres not much oil at all. Again your a huge asset to this $$ hoppy. Happy thanksgiving 2 u and fam🤘🏻👍👍
You bet Brother 👊. Happy Thanksgiving to you too 🍻. I'm pretty happy with the stock 4s oil weight. You might want to add oil, however I recall there's a fill line you don't want to really go past do to the design. Razor RC did a great build video on this awhile back. 🤙🤙
What is THIS ABOUT THE SLIPPER DOES IT ALWAYS COME LOOSE AND IS IT SOMETHING I REALLY NEED TO WORRY ABOUT AND THE SHOCKS LEAKING AND THE SERVO THESE ARE SOME OF THE PARTS ON THE 4S 4X4 KRATON I'M CONCERNED ABOUT WILL IT BE A PROBLEM BECAUSE THATS WHAT I'VE BEEN HEARING ON LINE FROM OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE 4S KRATON MAYBE THEY ARE JUST DRIVING THERE BUGGY TO HARD WHICH I DON'T DO SO WHAT DO U THINK ABOUT ALL OF THIS I'M JUST REALLY EXCITED THATS ALL CAN'T WAIT TO GET THE 4S KRATON BUGGY!!!!
I'm still running the stock servo and shocks. The 3s shocks leak, but I haven't had a problem with my 4s ones 🤔. I think ARRMA made a slight tweak to the slipper clutch after the first batch of rigs. Mine hasn't been a problem. It's easy to tighten or add a drop of thread lock to the set screw if needed. 🍻
I had the exact cartwheel situation you had at 7:18 except I was going way slower and it broke a rear arm. I made a new one though!😃
Never mind, I broke the on I may as well.
So is that motor with the blx185 faster than stock motor and esc? Ordered that motor and have the 6s esc I’m going to put in my outcast 4s
Most definitely faster with this setup Kyle. It's worked Killer in my Kraton 4s. 🍻

Sick run man these 4S rigs look badass I have to hold myself back every time I go into the LHS 🤙🏼👍🏼😁
Thanks so much Cam😜!!!! I'm absolutely stoked with Hobbystar. Their Lipos, motors, and other parts have been AWESOME 😍. Priced very reasonably with solid performance and wonderful customer service 👌.

I watch your videos and wonder how you can keep up with what you're doing. So fast paced!😮 I have the Kraton 4s and for my stay on the ground driving, I think I like it as much as the 6s.
Did you put any spacers on the shocks to stiffen things up? Keep on doing what you do so I can enjoy it. Thanks.👍👍
Thanks so much Brother 😊!!!! I really prefer running at speed 👍. Keeps me focused in on what's happening. I did swap in the biggest extra front shock spacers. Took off the smaller ones. 😎💪👊👊
Thanks a lot for the info. Feels like it needs a stiffer suspension especially on the front. It rolls so much in the turns compared to the 6s version. What it really needs are anti-sway bars. Sure wish someone with connections would put a bug in someone's ear.😁
I've gotton too old and with the hands swelling and hurting, I can do nothing at speed, except fall down. I'm pretty damn fast at that.😮 Again thanks for your reply, it means a lot to us here in Grumpyland.👀
Hi R
Will The stock esc work with this 3674 kv motor. Thanks🔥🔥😎🍺
Yes it will Johnny 👊. I just wanted less load on mine so I put in a spare 6s one. 😎💪👊👊
You running stock servo still? It seems so damn lackluster.
Yes, I think I was at the time. These rigs don't have sway bars and are pretty light. Not sure what steering is possible, but she gets the job done for my bashing needs without running into solid objects. 😎💪👊👊

Looks like an awesome rig! I really like the 4s but would still prefer 6s powa! Chassis slap sucks with the 6s rigs though
The Kraton 4s is addicting to drive 😍. Especially with high traction wheels. My heart is always towards 6s, but these 3-4s rigs wind up something fierce. Just pure RC FUN 🤗👍👍😎💪👊👊
I'm trying to fit that 185 ESC on my 3s typhon but I'm having difficulties..any ideas?
I'm thinking you'd need to either raise the body or fit the ESC between the motor and ESC stand over the chassis 🤔. Might check on the ARRMA 3 and 4s Facebook Forum. 👌👌😎💪👊👊
Mega cool👌😁👍
What's the top speed on this with different motor and esc
I'm not positive Chad 🤔. My guess is 60+ mph. With the Talion Katar wheels it feels quicker than the 6s rigs 👀😎💪👊👊
What would I need to change to turn my 4s into a 6s ? Will the 185 esc run a 6s motor and if so can I just get the sAme 6s motor that is in my Typhon 6s ? I’ve already upgraded both my diffs and yokes to metal hot racing
The BLX185 ESC is from the 6s rigs. You could certainly run the 6s 2050kv Typhon 6s motor with it. Gearing with just depend, but it should rip with the stock pinion. 🍻
@@richduperbash2966 do u know of anyone that makes an aluminum or steel center drive shaft for the kraton
@@Gazelle0078 no I don't. Might check GPM out of China. They make all sorts of upgrades. Just realize that chassis itself was designed to support lighter components. Each piece of aluminum puts further burden on it. That's fine for speed runs, but will lead to other breakages out bashing.
@@richduperbash2966 I upgraded both yokes and diffs to hot racing aluminum already so that should help. I’m worried with the 6s power that it’s going to shred the drive shaft. Traxxas makes an aluminum drive shaft but I don’t know if the inside is shaped the same. If it’s to long it could be cut to length
@@Gazelle0078 just realize the stock telescopic driveshaft allows the chassis to flex without hindrance or damage.. It's honestly one of the best features with the 3&4s line. I would try 6s and see how it goes. My Traxxas driveshafts always bent 😝. Used to drive me nuts
Did u melt your drive shaft
No I haven't. I replaced one awhile back because a rock wore a groove in it. If the bearings are maintained and rocks don't jam under or alongside the shaft, I've had no issues. Running rubber sealed bearings in the slipper housing and input gears front and rear is a must. 🍻😎💪👊👊

How fast does it go with that motor
Probably around 60mph as is. Just depends on the tires and gearing. 🍻😎💪👊👊
I want to get one but 3674 line says 1900kv or 2200kv pleas help me lol thanks
Here's the link to the motor. It appears the 2650 is currently out of stock 🤔. You could grab the 2200kv and just gear up a couple teeth. Hot Racing makes an adjustable motor mount that will allow you to use more gearing options. 😎💪👊👊www.rcjuice.com/hobbystar-3674-4-pole-brushless-sensorless-motor-v2-waterproof.html
Mr. Duperbash keeping front tyre wear to a minimum again, and racking up the frequent flyer points. I have said this before, but this platform started life as a cuddly little brushed rtr with an included battery and charger. And here we have this sort of behaviour.
Isn’t it 5s rated?
This motor probably is 5s rated, I'd have to double check. The BLX185 ESC doesn't recognize 5s though. Only 4 or 6s or lower. 😎💪👊👊
Arrma needs to revise the arms on this car or at least provide the replacements for dirt cheap while pumping up production around the clock. Everyone who owns the car will break them and as proof they are sold out everywhere. From my piddly incident that broke mine, I can see that this part will need to be swapped out almost as often as lipos. Rich’s awesome videos make this car look like a tank, but it seems far more fragile in reality.
What’s the top speed
Probably around 60mph geared as is. Definitely fast enough for bashing. 😎💪👊👊
