    Picked up one of these a few days ago. Haven't had it out yet because it's still minus 32 Celsius here. However, it gives me time on the workbench to get familiar with it. Keep those videos coming, Chris. 👍

    When you actually see the Green , its nice . Its like the cool Kawasaki green they had and for us older guys , much easier to spot your truck when its 1/2 a km away lol. Everything's always blue , red or black . Nice to see that new color.

    • @ChriswithaCrc

    Definitely can handle a beating 🤙🏽 ive owned the first gen and 2 seconds gens and the second one is the best rc ive purchased only downside stock screws are trash and dont get me started on the servo, also motor needs an upgraded fan but beside that its an amazing project

    • @ChriswithaCrc
      @ChriswithaCrc  2 месяца назад

      Hey buddy , Yeah for sure they sure do take a hell of a beating to be fair . As you say the Gen 2 is excellent , i will say that i prefer this v2.5 mind the chassis is tougher , servo is better ( Not amazing ) centre diff is 100% a upgrade though and drive shafts are better . as you say there great fun as a project truck as well to add some upgrades .
      Stay awesome buddy 🤙

    I look forward to seeing it rip around just behind my 6s😉🫢
    we know the 4s systems got plenty of power, and arrma fair play to them have sorted some of the old problems. Should make for a really great basher/racer with added durability 👌

      @ChriswithaCrc  10 месяцев назад +2

      Ha ha ha , Ah man you know im going to give you a go !
      Yeah the 4s systems are a very sweet spot between power and weight i think and now with a upgraded ESC with a higher BEC voltage thats gotta be awesome .
      Cant wait to rip around along side your 6s fingers crossed this 4s truck will put the cat amongst the pigeons ! .
      Yeah as you say this should make a awesome basher and truggy to race about the ground ! .

    Am busy upgrading the hinge pin part ordered m2c 6s pin s and m2c hinge pin holders plus i put hot glue round all plastic now even if pin holder breaks will be fine as pin s longer plus i put 2 small holes in bumper so pins go into those aswell for more strength and hot glue on back side.Staff you need do as they not make them right like most models tbf

    Hiya Chris. Oh yeah that looks epic. I've been really pleased with my Outcast 4s since I sorted out the steering. All the upgrades to these newer versions look well worth it and make a good truck even better. I'm sure that this will end up being your go to basher. Great stuff mate 👍👍👍

    • @ChriswithaCrc
      @ChriswithaCrc  10 месяцев назад +1

      Hey there Pete , hope that your well buddy .
      Oh indeed I adore my outcast 4s and when Arrma announced this variant well it was a no brainer to be honest .
      I agree the steering is much better on my outcast since the upgrade of the servo horn .
      I do feel this is going to be the same .
      I’ve ran it today and wow it’s awesome !
      As you say do feel this could quite easily become my favourite.
      What servo horn did you use again ?
      Keep up the awesome work

      @ChriswithaCrc  10 месяцев назад

      Hey buddy thanks for watching and the kind words , yes a retro fit is expensive for anyone using the previous 3s and 4s trucks /buggies .
      It’s depending on how much you want the tune ability I suppose.
      Going to let it rip today and I’ll be able to report back .

      So this would be a unfair comparison whilst running.

    Great video, just got mine. Why did the factory set the motor timing so high, it's 22.50 degrees!
    Is a lower timing better, at least to lower heat??
    Thanks if you can answer, new to this.

    • @ChriswithaCrc
      @ChriswithaCrc  10 месяцев назад +2

      Hey buddy , Thats a seriously good question technically yes lower temps with lower timing , but that also means lower speeds in my opinion and arrma has tested these motors and they sure do allow some headroom ive have several Spektrum motors and they have been great , new had a issue with a motor getting to hot due to the really good heatsink that they have and fan set up .

  • @gillian9178
    @gillian9178 10 месяцев назад +1

    The biggest problem Arrma need to resolve with the 3s & now 4s trucks is with stones / debris jamming the steering servo, the new 4s Mojave suffers pretty bad with steering jamming which gets pretty annoying depending what terrain you run on.

    • @ChriswithaCrc
      @ChriswithaCrc  10 месяцев назад +1

      Hey buddy , now thats a very good point you have quite often you need to shake the stones out of the steering assembly . There has to be a way this can be stopped .
      As you say its hard to say when it's likely to happen.
      Hope that your well
