I had a feeling once you pointed out the bent drive shaft out of the box, it was gonna be a disappointment. It was a fun rc for a few good jumps thanks for the video 😃
One thing I'd love to see at the end of your bashing vids is a damage assessment back at your shop. Kind of take it apart a bit and see what all is actually broken. Then we can start to see the weak points of each vehicle. Just a thought. Love the videos!!
This is good and all, till he gets blacklisted by all of the companies for pointing out EVERY single flaw. Are the videos not a good enough representation?
I own a Kronos v2, never broke or bend anything on it, so for normal use, it can hold up quite nicely, what Kevin is doing is extreme, and i don't believe that all of you are that hard on your cars, just keep that in mind.. Bless you Kevin for doing what you do, so we don't have to ;)
It's still nice to know that your rc will stand up to the abuse were something to go wrong or if you decide to do some hard bashing. Weak spots are still weak spots
I have a Shogun and I agree, if you aren't actually BASHING, Corally makes terrific cars. But if you need it to fly into walls and land literal 40 feet drops directly onto the nose/wheels/etc...get a Sledge.
Lol this thing couldn't withstand a light breeze compared to pretty much every other RC he's ever featured. For an expensive kit, a bit disappointing the lack of ergonomics and durability.
After watching the EXB, Sledge and Kronos videos... I'm going EXB - 1st Sledge 2nd Kronos 3rd (although it had harder hits than the sledge) You need to take the Sledge to that Skate Park to make it fair.
We will see what kind of hop ups come out for the sledge. The exb has loads now and that makes it number one in my books too. But let’s see if that changes in a year from now
Ay tomley! 😎 I definitely agree. The exb is superior with the 7075 chassis, shock towers, and chassis braces. Imagine if the sledge had those similar parts out the box 🤔
The Sledge completely stock is a vastly tougher car than the "7075" junk alloy that the EXB comes with. I don't know where Arrma sources their 7075, but it's such a mediocre alloy that it's only a wee bit better than most 6061 stuff. If you're buying an EXB, you better buy either a real 7075 chassis or that brace Kevin has. You're going to have a bent chassis and a bad time, otherwise. Also, buy yourself some spare shock shafts, bulkheads, and tie-rod ends. You're going to break all of those pretty often on the EXB.
@@TomleyRCwhat held better? We all know the EXB problems. Lost dogbones, braking cups, play in diffs, cheap screws, loosing wheel nuts, braeking shock mounts and the most annoying one, breaking wing mount... that's just to much for me. Traxxas have overall a better quality than Arrma, even Arrmas stickers dont stick :D so I hope that Sledge will be better, to make Arrma just a kick in the butt for a push to make them EXB2 without all that quality/bad design things :D
Man, I watched ONE recommended video a few weeks back and I’ve been undeniably hooked on this channel since. I’m even saying things like Tumble Wumble in real life. Infectious, this man! Keep it up!
I'm just addicted to Kev's accent 😂😆 he's a bloody great character !!!! Then of course having kev show us the strength of these R.C vehicles is pure eye candy. I'll never miss a video ... . Unless I've been NUKED 🤔
You guys gotta remember Kev breaks literally everything - Maxx, X-Maxx, Kraton EXB, all of it. So its a tiny bit disappointing out of the box. Bummer, thought we had an alternative to the Kraton EXB for a minute there. To be honest, Kevs landings did make it a but unfair to the truck, especially smashing the edge of that ramp - oof thats extremely rough, but no matter. With the popularity of this truck growing, alot of us think that M2C Racing will develop a 4mm 7075-T6 chassis for it. With the chassis being the backbone it should reinforce the whole truck enough to take a massive beating without any other mods, so lets hope he comes through on that 👍🤜.
You seem determined to start a LiPo fire. I know you can handle it if that happens so I gotta give you a like for that. You're saving us by showing us what can happen if you bash. That's a hero.
Same here. I was into it from 10 to 17 when I got a real car and a girlfriend lol. Now 13 years later I'm getting back into it. Getting too old to ride dirt bikes, don't heal up like I used to. Might get a SXS though but damn expensive. Until then a couple RCs and a 5th scale 2 stroke gas one will be fun enough!
Fun vid! Nice of you to ritually sacrifice an RC truck for us. Yeah from what Claire went through I didn't think it would be very good. For mild bashing only perhaps.
Kevin I love your show it's taught me a lot. But! You say how the 7075 chassis bends on your other cars. But look at what you do to them Kevin?!!! Knowone drives there rc cars to that extreme, plus these cars are expensive and we don't have the money to just replace parts after we"go to the moon"! Your not careful with the cars, we have to be. Please consider that as facts and not the company making unreliable rc cars all time, it's you Kevin more than the failures of the company to put out a decent product. I love your show dude!! Keep it up. Thanks Kev.
Yall already know I'm gonna comment on Kevs video 😆. Man I just don't know which one to choose.. 🤔 kev which is legit better? Forget price, which the more durable? Traxxas sledge or team corally Kronos???
Word of advice. Check availability of the spare parts. You'll definitely break stuff and you're gunna be upset if parts are rare/expensive. Personally I'd pick the traxxas, they have replacement parts for every car they've ever made and most can be bought in-store to keep you bashing.
@@Anarchy522XD not gonna lie, I'm an arrma fanboy for sure. Thats what I'm used to. BUT as soon as the sledge came out, I thought damn, I might just switch over to the dark side 😂
Tip: an easy way to set the gear mesh is to put a piece of paper between the spur and pinion gear and ram it up to the paper and gear mesh set! Love the vid, keep up the great work!
Man Kevin u put the new sledge thru worst run. An it out did the arrma. I was running my Mojave exhaust. An broke the front bumper from underneath. I'm guessing a bad landing no problem just ordered another one. Keep up the video s brother
the trick to getting stripped screws out of rcs is to use a rotary tool with a little cutting disk kiss a little slot in the screw and get it out with a flat head
To be fair, although this video is old, I recently bought an Arrma Kraton BLX RTR. After only 3 runs the motor locked up. And the center diff failed. The center diff was completely dry. No diff oil at all. And the motor center cartridge literally just exploded into pieces. After only 3 runs. I got everything warrantied. But it's been over a month waiting on replacement parts. So lesson I learned is that with Arrma rc you can't trust what you get. You buy one the first you have to do is check all the diffs. Check all the bolts. And then rip it.
I’m starting to think that if your going to keep jumping at the skate park you should at least try to keep it in the park, not jump over the whole park!😂😆 Jeez, you could hit a bird, or a plane or something!😂😜! Epic Kevin!
Damn it came out the box bent already😂😂😂 as of now nothing is besting the 6s exb kraton🤷♂️ nice throw down kev, now run the sledge JUST like that in that very same park 😂😂😂😂😁😁😁 man i saw the sledge today it looks badass but one thing i noticed is that theres barely if any room for upgrades it has so much plastic. But it looks beast🔥
Love your channel Kev but you would be the “ultimate villain” in toy story movie about rc cars ..I can see it now all your rc cars trying to make a epic escape every night but fail dramatically. Call Pixar!
Hey kev here's a little truck for ur rounded Allen's. Stick a torks bit the same size in it it will grab the corners and usually get em out quicker than drilling and using extractors
I had a feeling once you pointed out the bent drive shaft out of the box, it was gonna be a disappointment. It was a fun rc for a few good jumps thanks for the video 😃
Something I'd expect from a RTR from Banggood, not a $650 roller.
Not the driveshaft, it was that carbon fiber brace. It was bending up, sticking out of the chassis.
Mine rear drive shaft from the XTR 2022 was bend even worth fresh out of the box.... 🤷♀️ HOW?!?!?
Another honest review that just doubles down on the fact that Corally just doesn't quite cut the mustard.. Thanks for the video kevin.
One thing I'd love to see at the end of your bashing vids is a damage assessment back at your shop. Kind of take it apart a bit and see what all is actually broken. Then we can start to see the weak points of each vehicle. Just a thought. Love the videos!!
that + the repair bill $$$ !

The chassis bent before it got any real air. The steering went funny just from standing back flips 🤣
It's still nice to know that your rc will stand up to the abuse were something to go wrong or if you decide to do some hard bashing. Weak spots are still weak spots
I have a Shogun and I agree, if you aren't actually BASHING, Corally makes terrific cars. But if you need it to fly into walls and land literal 40 feet drops directly onto the nose/wheels/etc...get a Sledge.
@@skeezixmccat Sledge is tempting, its just far to expensive.

EXB without aftermarket upgrades held up better than the Sledge, so I guess it will come down to cost at the end of the day

Welcome aboard!
It's ABSOLUTELY EPIC
Yup, I just said tumble wumble today myself - it might just make it into the dictionary!
Hi Kevin
So it's not that tough 🤪 still better off with a Max
Great job unboxing it and showing us what it was capable of 🤘😎
The new Traxxas did way better. Corally XTR no better than version 1
I’m super sick right now but I love watching these videos they help me keep my mind off the pain!❤
I'm just addicted to Kev's accent 😂😆 he's a bloody great character !!!! Then of course having kev show us the strength of these R.C vehicles is pure eye candy. I'll never miss a video ... . Unless I've been NUKED 🤔

The way you opened that Max-8 Combo box.... Jeeez🤣🤣

We have all seen an RC get punished hard but the comedy you bring to it KEv is just GOLD! RIP TC
Kevin is so hard on his rc’s that parts are bent before he even drives it for the first time 🤣
They come pre-bent just for him. Gives that worn in feel. 😂😂😂
That drive shaft bent out of fear. It knew what was coming.
These videos are always very helpful when renting on rc car
I think it looked cool even without the stickers
Thats why I like this channel not only do you try new rc cars out but you actually put them to the test so we know if it's worth it are not.
Mammuth Stealth!!! We need to see it already
This vid made my day. Just came back from school and open yt to see you uploaded:))
Wow kev thanks for the good video and review of the new car!
Wow can't believe the shaft was bent out the box 😆 Could be worse it could be mine 😂 As Kev would say 😂 Nice torture test Kev 🔥
Honestly I really like that car, I think I would buy it! It looks like it was made for the track, the handling looks perfect 😁
I have a Kronos V2 and it handles insanely, so good for BMX/RC track
Aaah it's Christmas every day love your videos Kev you bring the most awesome and true content love to be a subscriber.........
You are a mad mad with your expensive toys! Love it.
You are the best youtuber in the world
Would be cool to test a Tekno MT410 for us, thanks 😉😁
You seem determined to start a LiPo fire.
I know you can handle it if that happens so I gotta give you a like for that.
You're saving us by showing us what can happen if you bash.
That's a hero.
Kev you're goin to destroy that Arma , and I'm here for it !! #1 fan
landing in that tree had to be the best possible outcome from that jump, freaking awesome!!!!
This video is absolutely epic😘😘😍😍😍
That pinion install was smooth af.
Would also be interesting to swap out the metal chassis on one of these cars with a plastic or carbon fiber to see if its more durable.
Yep!!! Will excessive bendage kill some internals or not
Wonder how a good length of hardened plastic would do like the kind for a plastic chopping block.
greetings from Vancouver Island!!
Man that drivetrain sounds silky smooth 👌🏻
I love your reviews!
Just getting back into the hobby after a 12 year break, really enjoying the vids Kev👍

I literally said I wish Kev made a new video and then I saw you made a video what a coincidence 😂
Thx 4 helpin us 2 decide mate!
🤗 Most of the rig survived 👍 You can bold down the ESC with four M3x6 screws in addition to double sided tape 👍👍👍
Nice to see steve and jay
i think this is the only video that Steve is not smoking :)
Kev your vids are always great and funny
That’s a shame with the Corally having some issues before it’s even run. Hopefully, the Sketer does better.
love your vids❤️
Christmas everyday never ends 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Looks like the traxxas sledge takes the crown on the latest bashers, thats the 1 I'm gonna buy thanks to your videos 👍👍
Your are the SI unit of temperature🤘

He does consider that and other cars take the abuse better than this junk!
THEY CLAIM IT TO BE AN EXTREME BASHER.......EXTREME!!
and that is why i don't give an opinion and let the viewers make up their own mind!
Man i love your vids keep it up and man that car rips
Yall already know I'm gonna comment on Kevs video 😆. Man I just don't know which one to choose.. 🤔 kev which is legit better? Forget price, which the more durable? Traxxas sledge or team corally Kronos???
Traxxas all day everyday. For the price and durability you just can't beat Traxxas. I would love if someone could prove me wrong.
Can’t imagine very many people knew ngl

At 11:39, that Kronos decided to nest on that tree 🤣
I loved u throwing it in the trash can!!
Tip: an easy way to set the gear mesh is to put a piece of paper between the spur and pinion gear and ram it up to the paper and gear mesh set! Love the vid, keep up the great work!
That's an horrible way to setup the gear mesh...
Why is it horrible?
Greetings from México!!!
That is a good RC car and great video
Man Kevin u put the new sledge thru worst run. An it out did the arrma. I was running my Mojave exhaust. An broke the front bumper from underneath. I'm guessing a bad landing no problem just ordered another one. Keep up the video s brother
Kev just keep bashing if your smiling 🙂 it’s working!!
I friggen love keys videos esc right outa the box snip snip ..... hahah
the trick to getting stripped screws out of rcs is to use a rotary tool with a little cutting disk kiss a little slot in the screw and get it out with a flat head
That would probably have cut into the chassis too
I love the little bits you throw in😅 “lets go brandon i agree” 😂. Also makes me sad but we all know the facts here😅
“Every car with a metal bottom I have… I broke”. 😂
Your jokes man
Whenever I strip out a screw I pound a torx bit in the hole and they always come out! Way easier than drilling
Good tip! 🤔 Hard on your torx bits though 😂 Don't use your Wira's
Dude love the crawler videos
Great episode 👍🏻
I would really like to.see the banggood special "Rofun something or another", just look.it up and it should come up. Awesome vid tho Kev👏👌

I’ve you gotta loctite the sledge motor mount screws and take it out for another test bash 😈
When you launch them off a skate ramp, I think they will always bend. LoL
