My friends made fun of me putting tape on my chassis to protect it and keep the "new look" a little longer. I FEEL SO MUCH MUCH BETTER KNOWING JAYTEE DOES IT AS WELL 😂😅
@@iprincemajestic2.0 that works for the body, although i meant the tape on the bottom of the chassis lile jaytee showed, but i also use it on the inside of the body to strengthen it
You're not alone mate I do it to all my RC's.. Heavy duty cloth tape over everything and it not only keeps the chassis in good condition but stops any screws from backing out..
The body is literally the only thing bringing people in to buy this truck . The 6061 aluminum makes it hard justifying spending $700 plus whatever I want to upgrade
I love how you mentioned that when Arrma comes out with new trucks everyone expects them to redesign every truck from the ground up. And if you want tuffer better trucks they cost more money. Great comparisons definitely want a brcc 6s
@@ethang2731straps are always the way to go. Clip systems like on traxxas trucks might be easier but it makes it a huge headache when trying to run different size lipos.
Good work JT! Thanks! Jennys im sure will have the plastic bits cheap for the conversion. I didnt know about the battery tray moved back. One of the better 1st mods to do on the FT. With the same tires, I dont see how they can handle any different. Id argue the price point stems from the "new" factor, as I remember the FT being ~$750. I could easily see this BR being $600 next year.
The position of the battery tray helps as well. With the receiver in the battery Trend different position it does help the performance of the vehicle and handling. Can't explain it you'll just have to drive it and see. If you were close I'd let you take it for a test drive :-)
Thanks for doing the size comparison vid jaytee. Now I've a far better clue to just how big the new big rock is. Great all the arms and stuff are interchangeable...
Best mod i did on my Fireteam was moving the battery back. That and earplugs in the center diff and its an any speed wheelie monster even with the speed pinion. I've went thru both colors of plastic on my Fireteam. It'll be getting the Bigrock conversion as soon as parts are available.
Cool comparison, I converted my fireteam into a kraton xl. Very solid platform. I did use kraton axles and hubs which added some width to the truck. I’ll stick with my converted fireteam.
Couldn’t agree more 😂 the big rock name is getting too used. Maybe revamp the Fazon name an really get nuts making a 1/5 scale looking Fazon minus the T brand E revo suspension
Part numbers are not the same on their sit. Huge down side if we have to wait to long for m2c. Sure they will only be different holes if that is the case. Also could be the same just dif numbers. Sure we will find out soon as people start to get them.
it looks like you can add some offroad lights to that roll bar, I know they have a light kit coming for the truck, that is a is a nice touch, to finish this body
I think this Big Rock 6S is roughly comparable to the Savage Flux XL...long wheelbase MT with big suspension travel. Watching videos it seems to have some handling characteristics that remind me of the Savage XL. Higher CG though on the Savage.
YES! Even though I have no funds for another RC unless I sell one, I'm good. I still love your videos! Heck. Sometimes I go watch more than what I drive when I go in a bash group. Hehehe. Nice comparison!
Big Rock has an amazing Body and it's a great effort by Arrma, BUT They are the same Jay, different tires and pinion.... They should handle almost Identical, you put the same tires on them and there the same.... Not knocking the BR, JUST made me wish I grabbed a FT when they were $400.....because 700 for essentially the same thing🤔🤔
The only talking point most have with this truck is the body which I will say is amazing however for the price point it’s not really innovation ..sure the body is good but don’t take away the fact it’s 6061 stamped aluminium chassis and shock towers which bend easily for a harder bash so there is another $250 on m2c stuff there plus chassis braces as well these have all shown to have bent in first time bashing videos on RUclips ….at a bare minimum for that price it should have been exb 4 mm 7075 chassis and 5mm 7075 exb towers and 7075 braces then I’d buy …great comparison video my friend
Bashing is a choice, Arrma's marketing for this truck didn't include any ridiculous jumping and moronic skate park runs. Some people just want RC that can speed rip, and this truck surpasses those expectations.
Hey Jay! I thought of another question that I was going to ask you the other night on your live feed. Do you stock up on a arms and tires and shocks for each vehicle? Reason why I ask because you know one day they may be hard to find.
Lol. When the Fireteam came out, a lot of people b*tched about the body. NowArrma gives them a truck body, and they’re b*tching that it’s just a new body on a Fireteam. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it. If it cost too much for you, wait for a sale, buy it 2nd hand, or….don’t buy it. If you don’t like a $700 truck with a 6061 chassis, don’t buy it. I’d say go buy a Sledge instead, but oops that’s a $700 truck with a 6061 chassis. FFS some people just have to whine for the sake of whining, and are absolutely certain the rest of us want to listen to their b*tchfests.

I spray the inside of all my bodies with a light coat of black Gorilla Glue epoxy. Looks professional and makes the body way more durable‼️

@@iprincemajestic2.0try butyl tape on the inside of your bodies! I got a video comparing with and without on my channel.
@@portcityengineering wouldn't it be too heavy?
Thanks so much for taking the time to make a comparison between these two beasts.

Yes!!! Thank you for making time brother! ✊
Any time!
Still like the fireteam!

Hopefully next they will redesign the battery tray. The Velcro straps are a pain in the neck to change out or put in
They are but I've never had a battery come out of my Fireteam.
I've never had an issue, makes me wonder why you wanna remove it or change it? Should i assume you do it so often its a hassle for you or what?
No issues with them but it's just old technology that could be updated

@@bigsammy991 jennysrc is a website that sells discounted arrma parts that are brand new

Now the gunmetal is talking to me...hmmmmmm....but definitely ordering one!!!
Next is the 8s big rock and something to take on the xmaxx
Yeah but I think they should change the name. Maybe call it something like an arrma Sapphire
Couldn’t agree more 😂 the big rock name is getting too used. Maybe revamp the Fazon name an really get nuts making a 1/5 scale looking Fazon minus the T brand E revo suspension
Yes sur this Whut I been waiting to see ! Thanks Bruah
Hey Jay tee are the a arms, turn buckles and shocks the same on both trucks?

ty!
I know it's a different chassis but will you compare it to the notorious 6s if you or a friend has one. Thanks Jay T
Hi mate great video. The new big rock with battery mounted back would help with handling. 👍😁😁
it does!!!
Great video brotha Jay!! I still want buy the big rock lol
Great comparison for the masses to see. That is one cool truck i must say!! I really like it!! 8:50

Thanks 🙏🏾
Super curious if you can do a short or a pic of the 6s Mojave next to the fireteam and the Big Rock

maybe one set or two. no more
Very nice comparison. Look to be an awesome truck.
Thanks for this!
My pleasure!
Great vid...people always want to convert somerhing to something else....i dont get that 🤔
Hi mate nice video same same 1/7 chassis different body. The new kraton 6s is off its chops amazing. A real basher 😍😅🤣🤣🤣
Looks like something is new in the front upper A arms. No shims for caster adjustment? Vs fireteam, Kraton, typhon etc
🤔
Nice comparison video 😎
Nice brother

I wouldn't mind paying $399 for it 😅 but $699 is steep .
Crazy that the Typhon has the same system in it
Looks like a notorious tub.
Is there any weight difference
Can you put it side by the xrt
FIRETEAM GO. 🎉
Compare 2 stock Cars ofc
I wish the Fireteam has the stock wheels on this video. 🤦🏻♂️
Can we fit big rock 6s body on kraton 6s?
They gotbaby kraton parts,lol
You talked for the whole intier video could you please do at least 3 minutes of rc driving😢
Wonder how much it would cost too convert my mojave 6s into a big rock
🤔
I'd like to know that as well
You opened the floodgates, we now want it compared to all the things!
Great comparison for the masses to see. That is one cool truck i must say!! I really like it!! 8:50
Glad you liked it!
