Out with the New Arrma Kraton 8s EXB RTR with a new Brutally fast setup! Simply running stock electronics with Proline Masher X belted tires and 28/39 gearing! Really got her moving with decent temps! Had a total blast at both stops and only breaks were a wing mount and broken Motor lead in the ESC. I'll get her fixed back and ready to rip soon! HUGE thanks again to Arrma and Horizon Hobby! This is really a dream beast right out of the box!
Thanks for watching!
Took me a while to realize just how much you're actually moving, in terms of foot work, head movement, everything. Your camera work, positioning ect is as good as your driving, and the fact you're doing both at once is mind boggling lol. And even still, 99% of other youtubers don't touch you in either category. Keep doing it right bro.
Right 💯👌🏽 always thought that
No talking, No Music and somehow still an absolutely epic video! Great job man
Thanks so much man!👊Yeah I can't talk and drive at the same time🤣
Exactly why this is my favorite RC RUclipsr, also the badass driving skills. Makes it look so clean and just rips hard as hell 👌🏽
Awesome rip Brother Eric 👊. K8s wakes up nicely with the higher gearing and Masher X HP's. ARRMA did awesome with these new RTRs. Sick freestyle as always Bro. Love that spot you got!!! So cool to hear the kids getting excited with the ramp sends. Hopefully they'll take an interest in the hobby 😍. Great stuff as always Bro. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊
DUDE!!! What an awesome bash!! You KILLED IT!! Im always amazed at your driving skillz! Those fronties tho!!!! Thanks for posting!!!!
Thanks so much!😜This rig is an animal! Just needs a few more M2C bits now!😎💪💪
As a kid, this would have been, by far, the coolest experience at camp. 😆
Sick bash! Love that spot, it's like it was made for RC bashing haha. And @ 5:37 , whatever happened there, that was the coolest thing ever. 😄😁
I really appreciate it bro! Yeah had a blast and love how this rig is running right now!😎🤘🚀🚀
Perfect right on time for my lunch break 😍👌🏽
Haven't made it to yr channel much lately since my Mojave days due to life, but damn you lay it down hard with this one!😱🤙
Thanks so much man! Glad you made it back!😎💪👊
These tires are seriously the best setup for this platform. Had the same set on my 800kv 39/39 outcast 8s EXB for the last 2 seasons and they haven’t missed a beat. Killer video as always!
I agree man best tires hands down! Thanks for watching!😎💪👊👊
Absolutely amazing video
💯🫡⭐️
Thanks bro!😎👊🚀🚀
Absolutely love this wicked Bash with a Kraton 8's exb rtr my friend just Wicked sends and what's really cool is that your favorite bash spot to send it off the ramps has now become a great option for construction site bashing as well I mean it's all rolled into one how cool is that.
What a beast and them Prolines were smashing!
See ya round my friend
Thanks Brother Dennis!😁Yes the church is now a perfect bashing oasis!🤗Those mounds won't be there forever but I'll use them while I can! I know the owner of the property and he loves I bash out there! They do have plans to build a chapel for the summer camps but I'm ripping while I can! Just need them to cut the field so I can really launch it!😂Yes, she's super agile with the Masher X's! Like ripping a 6s around. Thanks for watching bro!😎💪🚀🚀
Insane freestyle and Ramp Blast brother Eric. The masher X belted looks good and performed awesome. The cheering crowd was totally cool. Another amazing session Ramp Blast Bro.
My friend I’m really amazed by all the cool stuff you can do with an Rc. You’re a car driver and a drone pilot at the same time! Seriously I’m so so surprised!! I enjoyed this video so so much, thank you for sharing :D
Massive sends with the mighty K8 bro! Awesome video man! 🏆⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
Thanks so much bro!! It's a beast for sure! Even with stock electronics!😎💪🚀🚀
I don't know how you f****** don't break it doing that holy crap man things just sending it I have never been that hard in mine
Amazing basher super fast too great driving big fan
I really appreciate it bro! Yes it's a great basher!!😎💪🚀🚀
Those kids were loving it That's awesome 🔥
Yes they were! I had a clip of them talking to me but kept it off RUclips since I didn't have parents permission but they were digging it!😁👊🤘🤘
@@RCDUDE81 Cool 👍🏻
i knew he waz gonna post today 🔥🔥🔥
Great bash!! Amazing ramp sends!!👍🤙💯
Thanks so much!!😁💪🚀🚀
"Ballooning increases your gear ratio" im dead lmao
Dude! That thing was made for you 😮
Yes it was!😜💪🤘🤘
Awesome video, your control in the air is on point :) amazed with how tough that truck is in stock form. Keep it up :)
I really appreciate it bro! Yes it's a tough cookie!
Awesome bash! Would love to see another vid with your Outcast Exb
Thanks!! It's in my near future plans!😁
You should change your name to Colin Mcrea. His moto "if in doubt, flat out" really suits you. You have the calmness and skill too.
The Chris Joslin of RC.
Very cool beatdown bro👍🏻👊🏻
I also prefer these tires on the road...they whistle so nicely and you can do nice, fast drifts🚀😎
Man!!! Killer sesh!!!!
I run some 6mmX1.0!counter sunks in when my factory 5mm’s start to pull on my Ol big girl ocexb bulk heads and they’ve never pulled out of the bull heads! Went a little longer than factory too, been so long I can’t remember the length, I measured depth maybe 14-16mm back when I did it. Works like a champ, give it a shot!
Thanks for the tips bro!👊I'm going to add longer screws plus the larger B and C block screws are the ones really backing out. Gotta look into an alternative for that too!
Snag a 6mmX1.0 while you’re at it and it will thread right in where the 5mm pulls out in the composite parts, in the aluminum I’m sure you already know to loctite. I snagged a multi pack of 6mmx1.0 counter sunk bolts with various lengths off Amazon for like $20, well worth it, had some I used in the 6s rigs too! Watching this has me itching to get the big girl out soon!!!
I got the mashers on my Xmaxx they are the best belted tires out there, light weight and nicely glued
I agree! They are fast and hold up great! I've been running them on all my 5th scales for over 2 years and still holding!
awesome rc and bashing
Really loving mine. I’m on 25/39 and wouldn’t feel comfortable going higher, BUT that is on stock tires. When I switch to mashers I may try the 28 that things rips hard bro
Yeah belted tires you can go a few more teeth since there is no balloning! I'm really digging the performance of this setup!
Where are yall getting your gears from?
@@Scootbreezy23 SAGA
I'm thinking about buying an 8s Kraton too. But at the same time I think about it afterwards. Whether my 6s exb Talion can do everything the Kraton can do. Just a little smaller. 🤔
Awesome run
That thing is more of an airplane than truck.
What is it your running!!! that's insainly fast 👀
Replace the 16mm length diff case screws to Front-front 25mm,Front-rear 30mm, rear-front 35mm then rear-rear 25mm. You'll have the drill all the way through diff case screw holes to make thr longer ones fit. Itll grab on to a lot more plastic, reducing greatly the possibility of them backing out.
Thanks for the info man!👊 Yeah I gotta figure out the B and C block larger screws. Those were the ones backing out
@@RCDUDE81 you got it! Yes B and C are the ones that back out most commonly.
No idea how you survived that death rock
Aweome
Those damn diff case to chassis bolts are the bane of the 8s lines existance. I wish Arrma would either add metal inserts to the cases to lock in the bolts to the chassis. Or just just thicker and more aggressive threads on their bolts. They eventually always pull out...hence bigger bolts and eventually new cases...then to metal cases...thats the evolution of that situation..😂
I agree! Every big launch and they were popping out. You can go M2C aluminum blocks which is probably my next move!
Big beast throws down hard ! Killer bash 🔥🤘🏻
Thanks!!😎💪🚀🚀
Ok this thing officially passed X-Maxx for me as next truggy after seeing thus and the upgrade Arrma did, it can play with its 6S sibling
What an absolute beast!! Epic bash Eric!!
SIIK Man!!👍🏼👍🏼 How Much Was It & Did You Reinforce The Body?
Thanks man! These run around $999. And I reinforced the body with Gorilla tape and shoe goo in spots.
Curious: why don't you cut holes in the windows, or cut them out entirely, for cooling?
Is it that you take care of cooling in your build and how long you drive it, or what? 🤔
What GoPro settings do you record with ?? Always loved the angle / frame of these shots you get 👌🏽
Thanks so much! I use Prototune with go pro color, 400 max ISO and standard wide angle 1080P 60ffs.
Great video and great car! Did you buy it with electronics already or was it a roller?
Thanks!! No this is the new RTR version so it already has electronics!
Why did they remove sway bars?
Can U feel the difference?
Hi Eric, I just bought my first 5th scale (Outcast EXB roller). I'm having a hard time deciding between 800kv on 12s or 1100kv on 8s (likely a Castle 2028). Which do you prefer and why?
How much run time do you get out of this 8s Kraton compared to your 6s?
Awesome video. Do you like this better or the XRT? Thank you.
That's a toss up! The XRT is lighter and is pretty tough too once upgraded. If I had to pick one though it'd be the Kraton!
Are the front shock shafts the same and the 8s EXB V1
The proof is in the poop!
Can you get this in fully carbon version
Did you happen to get temps? I can only get ahold of a 29 pinion and didn’t know if id be tempting fate lol
If your running belted tires I think you'll be okay. I forgot my temp gun this session but she never got dangerously hot just feeling by hand. If you're running stock or unbelted tires a 29 will be a bit too much imo.
@@RCDUDE81 mashers! Ran the piss out of it today and never got hot even with a broken fan! Granted, it was only 55° today 🫨🤠
Awesome!!
Love the content❤. I had a question my arrma kraton 6s is making a loud clicking sound whenever i accelerate and the pinion is good. Do you know what the problem is😅
Thanks! Sounds like a diff. Possibly rear🤔
@RCDUDE81 I'll check the rear. I put 20,000 weight diff fluid in the middle because the pervious just exploded and leaked everywhere
@RCDUDE81 Before I put the weight fluid, it was fine, but the click wasn't loud. I put it and tried the car and it's so loud. The fluid leaked out again 😟. Do you think I need to rebuild the center diff?
I'd start there and maybe go 100k or higher. Is your center diff gasket in good shape? Also make sure the little grub screw hasn't backed out. Clicking though isn't good. It could be a front or rear diff. Usually a large ring gear or an internal planetary. Usually if a planetary goes you'll loose your 4 wheel drive. Maybe go thicker center oil and check your front and rear main ring gears.
@@RCDUDE81 the diff gasket is good. I can show a video of the car a bit later
What lipo did you use ?
Bruder wegen dir hab ich mir diese Reifen gekauft danke ich liebe diese Reifen, auch wenn sie so viel kosten wie ein Arrma grohm 🤣🤣
Sie sind viel besser als die originalen
Are you ready n sc?
I'm in SC yes
Horizon is sleeping on this truck. Zero marketing. The only videos are from guys who bought these cash a month after release. Meanwhile Traxxas demos them out to big channels weeks in advance and the videos come out when they are announced to the public so we all get peppered with reviews.
Finding content on these rtr exb trucks is tough. Horizon is sleeping on these. What a shame, these trucks are objectively better than any large scale truck on the market and it’s not even close.
I agree this is the best 5th scale truck! This truck was sent to me for review but unfortunately weeks after release. I'm still grateful and gave it my best!😎
