ARRMA Kraton 1/5th 8s "Complete Animal" 29T Mega pit session...

[@richduperbash2966]

The K8s did AWESOME at the pit 👀. Did bend 2 shock shafts landing sideways and cracked a rod end on the front brace 😱. Here's the link to M2C Beefcake bliss 😍m2cracing.net/60-kraton-8s

[@jasondearden1394]

That was epic. She rips so hard it gave me goosebumps

Boss Jason please release the Outcast 8s

[@PaulOff-RoadDownunder]

Are you kidding me? Simply insanity. Hard to grasp these big beasts doing this kind of stuff.... Animal for sure !

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so much Brother 😜!!!! Hope all is well. The K8s is quite incredible for it's immense size and weight 😱. With the M2C chassis and mount and Hobbywing set-up she's gone from fairly nuts to downright ridiculous 👀🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

Wow Rich, the sending of the 8S 1/5th scale rig are just unreal.... I can't believe how lively your rig got in comparison with the stock setup. Absolute angry animal what you build! 😘😘😘

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so much Kimberly 😍!!!! It felt Crazy sending the K8s off that big mound the first time 🤣. Almost slow motion watching her soaring past 👀. This rig feels night and day different from box stock. Finally reaching her true potential. I'll admit it's a rush to bash now 😜🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

Crazy air man she rips on the 29

[@dis3nchant3d42]

@@richduperbash2966 Fantastic run brother. How are your batteries holding up? I've got the m2c hotness on it, but been holding off on motor just because I feel like I'll need to get a whole new fleet of higher quality 4s packs to handle the amp draw of the motor and the additional weight.

[@richduperbash2966]

@@dis3nchant3d42 thanks Brother 🤗!!!! My packs are holding up great Bro👊. I did have to close my trays back up and start using yoga mat under my packs though. I'd earlier moved the rear tray portion rearward with padding in the front to change the weight distribution. That created a gap on the bottom. Turns out it was allowing my packs to flex in that gap and cracked my casings across the middle at the gravel pit 😱. Fortunately, all my cells are fine. Gorilla tape to the rescue. Now running the trays stock with padding and the truck is doing Killer 😍🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

Hey Rich this was a great video for me to enjoy during these cold months 🥶☃️🇨🇦. Man that truck is really ripping and I love that terrain your on. Similar to what I run in. I want this truck come spring time. And I will do the same setup I think as I want that performance. I love this rig because I run on rutted out undeveloped neighbourhood construction areas so the big truck would make ease of the terrain

Hi rich hope you are doing well 👍💪 I have a little bit of a problem with the kraton 8s 🤔 I bought two smart batteries from spektrum and the charger s1200 DCsmart charger But the problem is that the charger doesn't come with a leed cord and the connectors ove the charger are too small for the spektrum smart batterys that i bought. So my questions are the following : no1 :can I put xt 60 on the batterys and not connect the wire of the smart chip, and charge them with my over charger. No2 :will xt60 connectors be big enough for the power? No3 :if i put xt60 on the car will that limit the power going to the esc and servos!? Hope you can help me out mate because don't want to do something stupid See you Saul 👍👌💪✌️👊

I'd go with the Kraton 6s Harry 😱. She's the benchmark for go anywhere basher's 👀. Plus all the upgrade options are readily available if you choose to customize her. The power to weight ratio is perfect and the price is reasonable. Good luck with whatever you decide Brother 👍. Appreciate the kind words as always. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊

[@didgeteria9068]

That should be named Arrma Kratos . Because its a car of war . You could kill the whole Valkyries using that chassis of chaos .

[@islandrc-duke1972]

wow awesome bashing,you must have a pilots license the way you fly that thing...lol

[@hendrybudi8462]

What kind a gear 29T..?..is it spur gear..?..let me know thanks

[@bdubbyabt]

Does the average basher really need the chassis upgrade to prevent bending? I’ll never moon jump like you so do I need it? Thanks.

[@richduperbash2966]

Sorry I missed this Brian 👀. Great question. My feeling is not necessarily. It's perfectly fine to upgrade based on your needs as you go. 🍻😎💪👊👊

[@rcsendandblast1579]

Wow man how do your servos last. I can’t get a Arrma 6 s servo to last for longer than a week. Always water makes them flake out. 5 in a row. Arrma servo blissness for me to reap. How does yours last Especially with punishment that would incinerate my servos. What and why I say.

[@richduperbash2966]

My 6s servos get swapped ASAP 👀. They all have the same gear strip out after the right hit or tumble. No wonder they're dirt cheap on Jenny's RC 😜. Been running Power HD 23kg with good luck thus far. 38-40$ is more my style for decent performance and torque. This S905 1/5 Spectrum is starting to crap out 😱. It stopped holding center at the very end of the video 😝. Maybe there's a reason it's only 49$ 🤣🤣. I've beat the crap out of it so I can't complain. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

[@rcsendandblast1579]

Rich Duperbash Your also saying power HD servo the 23 kg one. That’s perfect. Appreciate the help bud. I need it. Ya I was just running 2 s in my new typhon and the servo I had just went out with no hard bashing. It just happened easy. Your driving is up there with only a few who do this big sending and I am setting myself up here slowly to. With great help / ideas and advice I’ll make it fine. Have a wonderful evening Rich. 🤘😊❤️👍👊😀 Thank you for your help.

[@robertrichardson2868]

could I get you current mod list if you dont mind? I'm thinking about gettin this bad boy and would like something close to what you have and what battery would you suggest, I was looking at a pair of Gens Ace 4S LiHV 100C LiPo Battery Pack this would be my first lipo truck and would like to get the most out of it. any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated

[@richduperbash2966]

I'm currently running the M2C Racing Crusher SWB chassis kit and 7075 motor mount with Hobbywing 5687 1100kv and Max5 on a 29T pinion. I favor Hobbystar 6000 and 8000mah 100c 4s hard packs from RCJuice. Lots of guys seem happy with GensAce 😎💪👊👊

[@ARR5ifty]

Why so light in the shock oil rich? Chassis slap for the win? Or just better over handling?

[@richduperbash2966]

These pistons have very small holes and tight tolerances 👀. The stock 40 weight felt too firm, too much pack. Chassis slap for the win 😜. She handles amazing now. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

[@ARR5ifty]

Ahhh ok makes sense now But yes I definitely learned from you chassis slap is the only way you WIN lol Great video by the way brother! I wanna check that place out!

[@bicketybamRC]

Wow! Are you still on stock electronics? If so, I'm super impressed that it can handle that big pinion! Truck does so well for its size. Arrma hit it out of the park! Great video, Brother Rich 😎👍👊 Edit: just heard your electronics package. Very nice!

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so much Ed 😜!!!! The 5687 1100kv is working great so far 👍. It's got all the power and torque I was really looking for. The K8s really is amazing for a first release. Fortunately, we're not seeing really cold weather this winter. That's helped with the plastics for sure. I bought spare arms but haven't needed them yet. Think I saw you posted up a vid earlier 👀. Gotta check it out here shortly. Bash on Brother 👊!!!! 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

[@Skogsvasen]

Absolutely amazing to watch this heavy beast fly like this Rich! 😲🤯❤💪 Awesome build, truck, location and handling of the K8! 🤘😎 Truely awesome work all together, thanks! 👊 Could you please recommend me a good oil setting for my Kraton v4 M2C build? I use 16t pinion, punch 9 and very heavy and large tires (compared to the dBoots). All the best! /Peter

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so much Peter 😜!!!! The K8s felt totally dialed out there 🤗. She excels at these bigger terrain spots. As far as oils for your V4, that's really a preference thing 🤔. I actually like the stock 80 weight shock oils. For diffs I'm running 50/500/20k front to rear in both of my Kraton 6s rigs. Which wheels are you running 🤔😎💪👊👊

[@Skogsvasen]

@@richduperbash2966 Thank's for the reply Rich! I have a red, black and chrome/silver theme on the build and I therefore bought some parts more for the "looks", rather than just performance. 😉 So I bought the "Louise MT Rock" 3.8 tires with 1/2 offset and chrome rims, to match the M2C parts and new body paint theme. (Maybe they are called "Duratrax" in your region, or perhaps it is two different brands..?) They are very heavy and wide, but they have a ton of grip in the sand pit, are dirt cheap and look awesome. 👍😎 But I do not know how strong and good they really are yet though. I hope to finish the build today, but I have some tuning left to do before I can give it a real go. All the best! 👊 /Peter

[@enozone]

no one needs a weapon if he is owning a beefcake Kraton xD nice Vid !

[@robertredzich7292]

Wow! Great torque. How fast is that beast? If I was driving I would have smashed that jump even if I wasn't jumping towards it 😂. Awesome skills as always! Oh 58mph. Missed that till I researched the back end of the vid.

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so much Robert 🤗!!!! This setup feels about perfect 😍. She's plenty fast now with gobs of useful torque. ARRMA did a wonderful job with the design and the upgrades just take her to the next level 👍. Much appreciated Brother. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

At the beginning of the video it was 30 front 35 rear..at the end it was 35 front 30 rear..???

Sorry Jason 🤣. I misspoke at the end 👀. Probably hunger and fatigue. I'm running 30 front and 35 rear. 🍻😎💪👊👊

[@derka5581]

What is the secret to not braking shocks? I don't jump that big and I've have ripped through 3

[@richduperbash2966]

Sorry I missed this Brother 👀. Running softer suspension with lighter 30-35 weight oils definitely helps. Thank goodness ARRMA went with beefier shafts and rod ends with the newer 8s EXB. They're a direct fit on the RTR 8s. 🍻😎💪👊👊

[@derka5581]

@@richduperbash2966 All good! droop screws seem to be the key for me

[@richduperbash2966]

@@derka5581 most definitely for sparing the rod ends 👊. 3mm button head screws straight into the existing stock arm holes. I've found putting small M3 aluminum spacers under the screws helps keep them from pushing into the arms over time. 🍻

Nice Rich, Hey I have the 4985 in my Notorious, with the C4 fan do you think a 23t pinion is pushing it?

Also @richduperbash when is Mitch gonna have those 6S suspension mounts?😫 Been waiting forever🤷‍♂️

[@richduperbash2966]

@@Crewchief227 I would just run the 23T and watch temps. I'd think 21-23 would be about perfect with that kv anyways. Mitch should have the mounts up on his site by next week 🤔. The Delrin inserts make for silky smooth movement with the hinge pins 😍😎💪👊👊
