Every time I get a new car. I search RUclips for information on said car, everytime I search RUclips for said car, Exocage comes through with master plan! Thanks Exo, I appreciate ya
LoL thanks!
I've been bashing with my XLX2 and 1100kv motor with 35/47 gearing on my Outcast 8s for about 3 months now with zero issues. Lots of 20ft + jumps and landing on concrete sometimes. Lots of abuse. I haven't even done the firmware update yet. Now the shock shafts bending and shock rod ends breaking is another story! Waiting on those massive Rovan shocks with 10mm shock shafts.
Does it wheelie easily with that gearing? What about mid air correcting?
@@hydroboy35th Yes it does, but longer term, after around a year, I destroyed too many batteries, because they were getting too hot. No matter the brand. Also, the bullets going into the board for the XLX2 came off from the battery side. Castle told me that 30/47 gearing is the maximum you should run with this set up. I had constant 500 amp spikes, so that's a no no. Go with 30/47 gearing for this set up. I've been having diff issues too with my 8s Arrmas and I believe it's the 12HP that they're XLX2 generates.
They should all be made that way
You've inspired me to get my kraton 8s out for a rip. Been on the shelf since December. I love these big trucks.
Great review! Listen to those landings 👌!
Totally agree with offroad speed runs. Offroad vehicles are much more stable off road and you don't kill the tires for no reason.
Man you have been cranking out the videos. Thanks. Keep up the good work.
I’ve been trying. Had a couple days off so I recorded all weekend. Got editing to do now.
I just put a C.C 1406 slate 2850 kv,micro x esc n losi nightcrawler, lovin' it so far
lower kv must be so much cooler. those xt90 plugs are nice even though small. they can handle like 200 amps continuously for 10 seconds before the wires melt off. and like 120-150 amps with no melt.
That looked like a lotta fun
Can’t wait till I get mine back (esc) from Castle HQ and join the party 👍👌👍
Well done👍. Haulin ass down that field is way cooler than a wheelie.
Love the detail on the data logging. Thanks
And for that tip with the computer thing I don't like opening my receiver box on my xmaxx to plug it in Thank you 😊
Awesome. I found that because I didn’t want to dig into mine either. It works!
@@ExocagedRC I'm excited cause I got a new laptop with USB plugs that work and don't have to ask wife if I can borrow her laptop
I'm jealous of your bash spot
Sometimes it’s really good out there
Great video Exo👍🏾
Hey Joe. Awesome footage man. I've had zero diff issues until I put on vitavon diff housings on my K8S and O8s. I've found there's to much slop in the input gear with the bearing in the center driveshaft. I shimmed the input gear right behind the gear in front of bearing. I found Axial AX31269 shims they are 18x15x0.2 come in a pack of 6. I used 2 on the input gear. Hope this helps. Keep making great videos 👍
This one holds up well but I messed them up a while back, patched them back together and hoped for the best. They let loose on this run. I may try the shimming on them thanks for the shim size info!
@@ExocagedRC 👍keep up the good videos. I got hooked on vitavon from u. So thank you for that
Great video!! Looked like fun!! 😁
Man that looks awesome fun. 😁👍
First I love watching your videos.I just got the kraton 8s exb w/the xlx2 w/1100kv combo and I have know idea how to gear it or what spur gear to use its just kinda limited with the stock motor mount any help would really be appreciated thanks.
I believe the EXB comes with a 39t spur. So if that’s the case you will need a 30t pinion, if the motor will go in far enough for that to work. 1100kv may be a bit much but so long as the firmware is updated on the castle esc it may be ok with a faster ratio
Super cool! 💯
Was the 2 sessions pre and post pinion gear falloff? Maybe the esc was turned off?
How do you like those duratrax wheels/tires? I like the stocks so far but they are almost done. Not sure if I want to switch to belted. I don't want to effect pitch control in the air.
Also, what are you using in your center diff? Looks tight and wheelies nice. Good work brother 👏
I’ve had to glue them a few times but they seem to work well.
Thank you for all the awesome videos. I am installing the castle xlx2 and 1100kv castle into my armma kraton 8s. What gearing do you recommend for bashing? Also I've noticed you switch to castle 800kv should I do the same
I’d go with a 43t pinion with the stock 47t spur.
Wow I just put it in yesterday but can't find my castle link to program it and I put a 33t pinion with 47 spur and I thought I might be over gearing it
thx for the great information🤟 your videos freakin rock man thx again
Glad you like them!
So on the setting for Punch Level...a higher percentage translate to a softer launch from a dead stop? Easier on the batteries and gears?
Those are gears now.
What gearing would u recommend with that combo with 39t spur
Great video what do you suggest
Which is better castle or hobby wing
Tough one. HW is solid but Castle packs more punch.
Would it be okay to use EC5 to QS8 adapters for the batteries? QS8 is an uncommon plug to use, and I'd rather not sacrifice a set of lipos just to have those on there for one rc car running the xlx2... I'm just worried about the connectors getting damaged, or even the batteries themselves.
Do you know what the smallest pinion you can put with this motor without it interfering with the bellcrank?
Hi friend. Can you fit 39t pinion with stock 47 spur gear in the 1/5 Kraton exb using stock motor mount?
I have this same combo for my outcast exb. I was wondering if I can mount this motor with the motor mount that is included? It is hard to tell. Thank you
yeah it should go right in
@@ExocagedRC thank you for the quick response!
I asked my local hobby store about the qs8 anti spark connectors and they were clueless. By chance do you remember where you got yours?
Yeah www.offshoreelectrics.com/proddetail.php?prod=ose-qs8-anti
Would 1:1 still cog with the sensored system? Overheat the motor in a bash setup? Thanks!
probably heat issues mostly, shouldn't cog unless the motor just can't turn.
My steering goes to the left and stays there I have the same set up how do I fix it?
unrelated question had a friend to break the panhard mount on his trx4 on the trail yesterday the shock tower mount do you know of any beefy,strong,better one to get
Hey exo, I just got a hobbywing fusion for my trx4, which is kinda heavy and running 2.2s, and the 10t pinon, what's a safe temp for this motor/esc, ran it today (first run) could hold my finger to it for about 5-7 sec befor having to pull away, any help would be greatly appreciated
It’s will run it just fine. I bashed in second gear pretty hard with mine and it was only about 155 degrees. Not an issue have fun!
Do you stick with blue thread lock? I just noticed Permatex makes an Orange. Have you (or anyone) tried it?
I use blue (medium) I usually add a bit to the shaft before sliding the pinion on. Sometimes I get in a hurry and don’t do that.
@@ExocagedRC I have too, and it has worked well with enough, just curious
Punch lowers power! It gives softer launches read description, and do not I repeat DO NOT run small connectors use QS8 connectors nothing smaller or your connectors will melt
Where do you order your 8mm bore pinions from ?
Any link ? Thanks

You may have hit that 67.000 rpm.i bin reading some specs on C.C n they do have some motors that are rated I think 60 - 75 thru 100 thsn.rpm
Lol the RPM is wrong. It's a 1100kv motor on 8S, so the max RPM possible is around 35,000
Is this a little shorter than the 800kv?
1st!😁
