    Greetings, am also the proud owner of a Kraton 4S v2 and have followed with great interest your "upgrade" video!
    When I saw the video, I was unfortunately already too late and at Custom RC Upgrades, the DriveCups were unfortunately already sold out at that time!
    I unfortunately don't use Facebook so could you villeicht in experience when the Drive Cups would be available again, that would be super!
    Hope to see many more great and informative videos about your Outcast v2 even though I drive the Kraton myself but technically they are identical except for the chassis!
    Best regards

      many thanks for watching the video , and hope that your well , i know that Lee the owner of custom Rc upgrades is currently out of the country but i can drop him a message if you would like about stock availability on the drive cups if you would like .
      Massive thanks for the kind comments and look forward to hearing from you

    NIce 1! My rear axels have had a bit of a workout now, slightly twisted, but still good to go. I did get some ally ones but haven't needed to install them YET. The other upgrade I would suggest are the rear axel mud guards. The suspension arms are so long, which is great, but the front wheels give the rear wheels every rock and stone they can fling at them, and I noticed it tends to wear the rear out a bit. The other problem I have with the 4s trucks is stones and pebbles lodging in the steering and the driveshafts and just filling up inside the body in general. Be interesting to see how you go with that, and what you suggest. Excellent work with building your channel, getting the merch up and running really adds some authenticity to the whole appearance of it all. More power to you mate, can't wait to see this bad boy in action!!

      Hey Avo mate ,
      Hows the world at the other end dude !
      Got to ask man hows the little dude ? has he had a go yet on the outcast yet lol .
      As for the Mud guards yes your right for sure 100% bud , ive got a set being made as we speak by Big Foot Customs , Im a advocate for guards really made a diffrence on my Tyhoon and Big rock keep the rear of the car clean and debris free .
      As for stones yes this is a issue i have had in the past with my big rock , Im planning on upgrading the servo saver and servo when i get chance to sit down and wrench on it again now , just working out which route to go down with the servo saver as the one they provide is very weak .
      Ah man thanks so much for all the support with the channel also its the likes of you guys that are making it what it is and i can only hope that i can keep it interesting enough for you all to want to come back and keep watching buddy .
      As for the merch bud drop me a email in the week and ill get a T Shirt made for you and sent to OZ as long as you promise to wear it in one of your videos lol !
      Got a video of the first run of this truck coming out at 9am this morning so please make sure you tune in to watch it buddy .
      Stay awesome fella and by the way when you making another video man , I would love to see the outcast in action again 100%

      I wouldnt worry about keeping it interesting mate, so long as you are interested that comes through and I think thats the key. Its easy to get lost in the details.
      My pleasure mate, thanks also for your support!
      As for the shirt, I would be honored mate, look out for an email this week for sure!! Champion! I need some new threads too lol
      Next vid was supposed to be out 3 weeks ago lol. But I have other priorities so sometimes YT has to take a back seat. Never fear though, my vision will not die. Have a few surprises lined up so look out!!

      Hey mate , Yeah i was suprised also , but now im running full Metal gearing now so all good , Weird one as this truck also came with the 3s shafts , so i belive that its a pre production model from what im told of the v2 according to Logic RC .

    Hey great stuff Chris. Those drive cups do look the business. I'd definitely have a look at upgrading if I break the stock ones. Kind of those companies to send you those bits. Like you say the weather should hopefully perk up and you can get out and actually drive this thing. Be interested in what you think. Cheers mate 🙂

    • @ChriswithaCrc
      @ChriswithaCrc  Год назад

      Hey Pete ,
      Hope your well buddy , Yeah CRCU do make some amazing upgrades , As you know im more of a Upgrade before running kinda guys or at least run once then work out what i want to upgrade from the off .
      Also i got to give RC Breakers UK a big shout as they had my parts out to me the next day thats service you dont get from many places .
      Hoping to get out tomorrow for a bit of a shake down with it on 3s as by all accounts its quite spicy on 3s , i want to get used to the way it handles before handing it its arse on 4s firstly.
      i suspect the servo is going to get on my wick so thats on the cards straight away , Ive got a fast 35kg servo to go right in , but i also have listened to what you said about the servo saver and planning on ordering that next week i think .
      Stay awesome buddy
