Yosh Rich, I know I'm late to this show but I gotta say that was soooo cool🍧 of you to sign outta here with air from Gary's rig, such great energy here💯🏁🏁💯

6:22-6:26 is perhaps the greatest 4 seconds of ANY bashing video I've ever seen from anyone. S-O-L-I-D brother. 👏

[@richduperbash2966]

RedBeard RC thanks so much brother!!! Just finished wrenching on the Truggified Typhon...Lol. Still my favorite RC.🍻🙋🙋😨😵😵😵😲😎💪👊👊

Sweet, you & Gary bashing it up, One Luv! 😎

[@richduperbash2966]

That's some serious bashing. I really enjoy watching. Thanks

Another killer bash from you guys. Love the kraton and those backflip tires. Think I’ll put those on my kraton when I get it

[@PeterWeber]

Rich, your are sick :) What a great bash, loved every second of it, you guys had a ton of fun and good time. If we weren't few 1000 miles apart I would join for the fun. This is a great bashing location and it's never gets old. And the weather is a dream for every RC, not like mine weather where we have snow, rain and the last few days a wind storm, so that no bashing is possible. Hope the weekend will be OK.

[@richduperbash2966]

Peter Weber thanks so much Peter!!! You'd love this spot I'm sure bud. Had such a great time with these guys!!! So many laughs and funny moments. Hope your weather improves soon brother. I'm sure you'll get out bashing again when it does.🙋🙋😵😵😵😲😨😎💪👊👊

[@PaulOff-RoadDownunder]

As I said elsewhere here....I want a Truggyphon !!! Your an insanely skillful driver SirD. Great when you guys get together 👍

[@richduperbash2966]

RC OFF-ROAD DOWNUNDER thanks so much Paul, you're too kind my friend!!! The Truggified Typhon is such a BEAST and so simple to make. Arrma really should sell them as a "Typhon Xtreme" speed basher. Simply no comparison to the stock buggy setup.🙋🙋😱😵😵😵😲😎💪👊👊🍻

Been wanting to load your triple BF, but trying to put the footage in order. Got a SICK side shot to share soon my friend. Moments like that are priceless good times for me bud!!! Think I got some decent shots with my MT410, too... just haven't seen it yet. Missed driving that BEAST. It's honestly right up there as my favorite basher, but I really do love them all. Props to Tekno once again.🤗👍👍😵😵😵😲😨😎💪👊👊

Aaron Weycker Yeah !!! Tell me about it !! I want a Truggyphon as well....

[@richduperbash2966]

Aaron Weycker thanks so much Aaron!!! I'm telling you, the Truggified Typhon is off the hook!!! If Arrma new any better, they'd release a "Typhon Xtreme" as a RTR speed basher option. Just takes Kraton hexs, axels, and hubs and strapped MX28s. Some just use hex extenders to achieve the same stance. No other RC I've owned can rip as hard as it. That's why she's my favorite, period.😱🙋🙋😲😲😲😵😨😎💪👊👊

[@GreatLakesRC]

Rich Duperbash I am trying something like that with my Tekno buggy. I have mx28's for it with 2mm hex extenders. I will have to take measurements to see how close it is to your set up. I definitely want it, lol 😂😂

[@12R1rcbashr]

Awesome bash brother that place is so bad ass some big jumps out there man the Kraton looks to runnin strong💪too motor seems to haul ass for sure very quick looks like y'all had a blast out there bro happy bashing bud🖒🖒🙈🙉🙊👊✌

[@richduperbash2966]

12R1 thanks so much brother!!! Truly was an AWESOME fun bash. The Kraton had more power than I could get down to the ground...Lol. I was partial throttle just getting used to the braking...etc. Definitely happy I finally tried this setup. Your new Talion looks SICK in the dirt!!! The handling/speed looks dreamy indeed. 👍👍😨😲😲😲😵😎💪👊👊

Simply WOUAHOU!!! 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌........

[@bakermob29]

I just got the voltage hobbies chassis braces for my Kraton the other day. Not to sure about those GPM shocks. They feel to stiff. I guess I'll see after I run it. Doing a compete tear down on the Kraton. Hopefully I'll get it done this weekend. Just waiting on the new chassis. Mine had a few slit marks in it from the dremel. Lol.

[@richduperbash2966]

Bakerboyzzz RC I need to check Kenny's braces out myself. All his stuff is so top notch. My Voltage towers have taken such a hammering and just keep going. Need to order a new MT410 chassis myself...Lol. I've straightened it twice, but must've landed on a sharp rock cuz it's got a huge gouge with a split in it...Lol. Wasn't so "Tekno tough" after all 😨. May have landed on a fence post??? Good luck with the Kraton BEAST. I'm hoping to run my GPMs tomorrow or Wednesday. I still haven't gotten the dampening right. Going to try 90 weight oil tomorrow.🤔🤔😰😵😵😲😎💪👊👊

[@spt_killerwood]

Rich Duperbash hell yea lol. I'm getting my kraton for Xmas and I've watched a good bit of your vids from your arrma rigs. This will be my first from a diff manufacturer. I've always had traxxas products so I'm definitely excited to get my kraton. Keep up the good work and bash on

[@richduperbash2966]

SPT KILLERWOOD that's AWESOME brother!!! The Kraton is an incredible RTR and the best 500$ you can spend in RC IMHO anyways. I'd recommend looking through the Arrma Forum if you haven't. Great place to get ideas, help with questions, and become more familiar with what people are doing with them. Let me know if you have questions, I definitely know these Arrmas pretty well. Congrats brother!!!😎💪👊👊

[@spt_killerwood]

Rich Duperbash yea I've def been doing tons of research. In your opinion what would be the first upgrade I would need to do without going all out lol

[@richduperbash2966]

SPT KILLERWOOD probably aluminum chassis supports. Easy upgrade but critical in protecting the chassis and center drive line once the bigger airs and hard rolls start going down...Lol. A front bumper is just as important really. Don't buy a shovel. RPM looks nice. I run original Tbone Typhon bumpers, small but mighty and don't shovel mother Earth off sharp jump faces. Backflips wheels are another great upgrade for the Kraton. 😎💪👊👊

Sweet bash bro 👍 the kraton is a beast with that motor sorry the a arm broke on the typhon I know you'll have it back up and running in no time 💪👊

[@richduperbash2966]

[@richduperbash2966]

Robert Porteous thanks brother!!! I'd like to help you there but don't own any JLBs and just don't know if the Arrma shocks would fit. Might ask Gary from Killer off-road Hobbyz. He might have a better idea as he's still got his Cheetah Xtreme.🍻🤔🤔😎💪👊👊

I think I might've cracked that arm with a one wheel sideways landing I didn't post. Too much footage to load, went through 4 packs!!!

[@richduperbash2966]

Amistry20 thanks brother!!! They're both AWESOME bashers. Kraton is way more stable at speed on the ground and in the air. Outcast is WILD, turns sharper and flips easier, much more challenging to get a handle on. Really is personal preference.🙋🙋😨😵😵😵😲😎💪👊👊

I haven't paired those two together, but RCJuice insisted that any 150A rated ESC should work fine with the 1730kv👊. My Castle Mamba Monster X eventually glitched out on me, but it's only 120A if I'm not mistaken🍻😎💪👊👊

I just bought the Hobbystar 1700 KV motor this morning I saw a couple of 1730s but the price for the 1700 KV was not a deal I could pass up I’m hoping the 1700 KV holds up well and produces good

[@richduperbash2966]

The 4076 1700kv is definitely a fast motor with the right gearing. Just have to be more mindful of temps. The bigger motors have more torque and better heat efficiency. 🍻

@@richduperbash2966 thank you sir I appreciate the input. Mine is going on a fire team I just picked up on sale. I guess I’ll start with a 20 tooth and see what temperatures I’m getting it’s winter time so not a big deal usually but here in Arizona I may have to adjust during the summer, just wanted to get some insight as I’ve never used Hobbystar before but I see you and thunder RC use them so I figured I would give it a shot

[@rgqban6380]

Hey brother What ESC you running with that Hobbystar motor????

[@stuart3712]

Hey rich. Question, seems like i dont get the help i need in the ARRMA forums and such but if i wanted a Cordova motor (1900kv) would i need to upgrade the dif gears and housing and any other parts if im only going to drive on roads and grass, no jumps or anything. im soft... Also is a soldering gun req and heat shrink and plugs and such? i have a hobbywing max6 in my cart with a soldering gun i may order if its req. Just looking to get more power and upgrade other parts later if needed.

[@richduperbash2966]

Hoochi Koochi I'm honestly not familiar with that set-up but pretty certain Seth Holtz on KZbin is. I'd message him on his channel to get his opinion. He runs very high power setups in his Tekno ET48. You wouldn't need to upgrade the diffs, but shimming is definitely recommended. Seth is a super cool and knowledgeable dude. His word carries a lot of weight with me anyways. Think he has a few recent Cordova running vids.🙋🙋🎄😵😵😵😲😨😎💪👊👊

[@stuart3712]

would this be the shims im looking for? www.amazon.com/Tekno-RC-13X16X-1mm-Differential-TKR1222/dp/B00F8OQ2NC/ref=pd_rhf_ee_s_ocp_0_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00F8OQ2NC&pd_rd_r=2NMY2A158H42YRT91A3X&pd_rd_w=Z4ddx&pd_rd_wg=01Bmb&pf_rd_i=desktop-rhf&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=3415040082&pf_rd_r=2NMY2A158H42YRT91A3X&pf_rd_s=desktop-rhf&pf_rd_t=40701&psc=1&refRID=2NMY2A158H42YRT91A3X

[@richduperbash2966]

Hoochi Koochi Also need E0206 Mugen seiki shims to shim the internal diffs. The Tekno #1222 bearing shims are for the crown gear side bearing on the front/rear diffs, I use 2 in both front and rear, sometimes 3 to push the crown into the input gear a bit more. Watch Thomas P of tpparts-rc Xtreme how to bulletproof diffs video. I use his same shimming technique with all my Arrma diffs. The Team Durango shims he mentions aren't available anymore.😎💪👊👊

[@guyrose5594]

You think the hobbystarset up will work well in the tekno MT 410

[@richduperbash2966]

Guy Rose this 4092 size 1730kv won't fit and isn't appropriate for a lighter weight RC. You could never truly use the power to it's potential, and it was throw the weight bias completely off. A smaller 4074 would be GREAT!!! Remember space is limited with the MT. Certain ESCs may not even fit. 😎💪👊👊

[@snsrcraceway]

What size spur are you running? Is the spur in the kraton the same? I ordered this motor for my v3 kraton, and trying to find a good starting point for a pinion and 20 seems really high to me as with the stock motor I have to run about a 12t.

[@richduperbash2966]

I was running the stock 50T spur 👍. This motor is completely different from stock being higher torque/lower kv. Stock is 2050kv. I typically run a 16T Robinson Racing Extra Hard #1216 pinion with stock electronics. Any higher will likely cause you temp issues on 6s depending on conditions and tire size. Below 160-170F is the safe threshold. I typically gear my rigs to around 150F tops for maximum performance and efficiency. 😎💪👊👊

Check this out. I was searching eBay for a Kraton chassis the other day. The best price I found was $45 and it came with all the plastic parts I didn't need. I bought it anyway because all the other I saw were like $60 for some reason. I unknowingly got the 2018 chassis! Pretty awesome deal. Got the battery try and all the new chassis mud guards (the the ones on the arms). Pretty stoked to rebuild it now.

[@richduperbash2966]

Bakerboyzzz RC they're normally only 12$ from Jenny's RC when in stock, but that's awesome you got the 2018. The Outcast tray is SO much better bro!!! If you add up the Xtra stuff you got, sounds like a great deal my friend.👍👍😲😲😲😵😨😎💪👊👊

[@richduperbash2966]

Bakerboyzzz RC be glad you got the 2018 bro. I had to drill out 3 of my Arrma chassis to accommodate the different set pin and screw holes for the Outcast tray. Wasn't easy to get just right, but definitely worth the added protection believe me. The cost of one busted lipo pack is typically lots more than you paid for that chassis and extras.😎💪👊👊

Can't complain for 69$ shipped...Lol. Gary made a family trip out of it. Sacramento is a cool city with plenty to see and do. Really appreciate him coming down to get his bash on. I had spare arms at home, just forgot to bring them😨. When I built my son's Outcast, it left me with a full set of spare parts from his Typhon minus the chassis, and few metal parts. The Truggified Typhon is an absolute speed bashing BEAST!!! 🙋🙋😨😵😵😵😲😎💪👊👊

What pinion and spur you got on Rich?

[@DSC1320]

Question Rich.. I have a Hex6 and 1730kv 4092 in my Kraton and started with a 20 tooth pinion with your recommendation but my temps get hot fast. Esc 170 and motor 170.. so I geared down to a 17 tooth and still gets hot. What's your thoughts? What should I do now?

[@richduperbash2966]

Assuming your gear mesh is ok, I'd go through your bearings to make sure they're all in good shape. I'd think there's some resistance somewhere in the driveline 🤔. Also check the center diff is in good order. Just curious, what tires and weight diff fluids are you running. Those numbers are way higher than I'd expect 👀

[@DSC1320]

@@richduperbash2966 fresh build. Everything is new. All m2c parts. 200k center, 60k front stock rear. All diffs, axles and bearings serviced or new. No resistance in driveline. Gear mesh is perfect. Practical prototype motor mount. Super easy gear mesh setup. Keeps going into thermal cut off at worst time possible.. 30 feet in the air. I'm kinda getting upset. Thinking I should try a lower kv motor if the 1730 is getting so hot so quick on 6s.. but some have no issues

@@DSC1320 I'm running the Hobbystar 4092 1480kv with Hex6 and 22T in my Kraton with zero issues. You might try upping the center to 500k and dialing back your punch if it's maxed up to 5. You could be bleeding power to the fronts. Other thing is vent your tires if you haven't. The Hex6 (3-8s) version has a

@@richduperbash2966 okay upped center diff to 500k and vented the tires. Still got to thermal cutoff before battery dumped. I did forget to tell u I'm using 6500 65c 6s bricks. Think the batteries are just to big and getting to hot before they die? I still can't believe my motor and hex6 are getting to 180 with a 17 tooth.. granted I am beating the living sh*t out of the rig. And because its m2c touch I just need to figure out this heat issue

[@stewdoggstew5018]

Awesome bash Duperbeast!!! Why no tower to tower brace anymore? Seems that would have helped that screw not sheer off...? Looked like a great bash with friends day for sure! You can only jump them big so long before they soften up and break. The Truggy has held up nicely to your "style" of driving:) Glad to see that motor is a beast in the Kraton! Where was Tdogg with that sweet new Outcast? Haha, I already miss the warm weather...:(

[@richduperbash2966]

Stewdogg Stew thanks so much Stew, had a killer time with the the guys again!!! Tdogg had to work until later on Saturday 😥😥. He actually didn't get the Outcast until Monday I think. Total score for him!!! Yeah I took RC Bashing the Kratons idea to stop running the tower to tower since I'd never tried with just the HR chassis braces alone and because I had decimated my MT410 several weeks back when it knocked out both bulkheads...Lol. It's been an ongoing experiment of sorts. The brace was breaking the front screws off my HR chassis supports at the top plate I believe and bending the towers. No brace has equated to more body damage at the mount holes from linear chassis flex. You're right, the tower brace would've likely stopped my Kraton rear HR screw from getting sheared, however, wingmount movement also leverages that screw heavily when that curved plastic diff piece craps out. Bottom line, better to recognize a problem and act on it before collateral damage occurs😨😱. The new 4092 Hobbystar is pretty BADASS so far, despite being a portly fat 🐖. Our weather has been perfect for bashing lately no doubt man. Appreciate the comments brother. You always make me think and give killer feedback. You have an inquisitive mechanical mind and I dig it!!! Not to mention your bashing gets me fired up to get out there.🙋🙋😲😲😲😵😵😨😀😲😎💪🍻👊👊

Cool

[@JKZ103]

Rich I am wanting to truggify my typhon. Can you tell me which kraton parts I will need? I hear cvd's and 17mm hex's is that it? Looking for a setup kinda like yours not the hybrid but the typhon. Thank you in advance your help would be awesome bro!

[@richduperbash2966]

J Ho mine is a V2 Typhon. I simply swapped for V2 Kraton hexs, axels, and hubs. This allows for 2.8 MT style rims. I prefer the Proline F11 17mm hex rims with strapped MX28s. You could use hex extenders instead as an alternative, but it places more torque on the bearings...etc. Did a recent video on the Truggified vs my Outcast Hybrid to clarify.😎💪👊👊

[@JKZ103]

Rich Duperbash okay so hubs as in steering knuckles... did you get the complete kraton axles? I'll check out your video to see if that helps me any. Thank you for your reply bro

[@richduperbash2966]

J Ho yes brother, you need Kraton hubs/knuckles, the red hexs, and axels. Your not swapping driveshafts or A arms. Make sure they aren't V1 cuz those are different and many places still sell them. I'd check eBay, otherwise it will cost 70-80$ regular price.😎💪👊👊

[@JKZ103]

Rich Duperbash thank you so much! Your expertise is much appreciated

[@richduperbash2966]

J Ho no problem brother, you're very welcome bud.😎💪👊👊

Now that’s a bash. That playground is amazing. I would need a bank loan to fix all my cars after I got done their lol. Now I want to go bash but it’s only 7 degrees here and they would break like glass. Lol. Keep up the great vids man. Next vid I would like to see the pro come out of retirement with her Kraton at this spot 👍👍👍👊👊👊

[@richduperbash2966]

Kenny mph Melanko thanks so much Kenny!!! You'd go apesh.t here no doubt brother...Lol🛫🛫. Everyone breaks parts at this spot, it's almost a given, just like a hard skatepark run😵. Angie "the pro" D is going to be ripping the Proline Pro MT very soon. No RC can be properly tested without her little hands at the controls....Lol😱😨😨. Just wondering how many flips she's gonna go for.🤔😦😦😲😰😰💩😵😵😎💪👊👊

[@kjdva]

I am looking to truggify a typhon. Are the outcast and kraton hubs the same? Also congrats on 900 subs👍👍

[@richduperbash2966]

kjd15328va thanks brother. Yes, Outcast and Kraton V2 stuff is the same. Haven't any V3 stuff yet so I don't want to speak for that. Think they bulked up the new front hubs, but they're probably the same width to fit axels and hexs as before.😎💪👊👊

[@strtchrmstrng]

Do you like the typhon more than the kraton or outcast? Liking Arrma more and more everyday. Love the vids man!

[@richduperbash2966]

Jacob Greth thanks brother!!! My Truggified Typhon is my favorite basher overall because it's so fast, agile, and more challenging overall for me personally. It keeps me more focused and on my toes. The Kraton and Outcast are mad FUN too and perform better on rougher terrain (rocks, ruts...etc.) I just keep switching it up to keep it interesting. Love variety when out bashing.🙋🙋😲😲😲😵😵😎💪👊👊

[@ronjaberjaw9539]

I've never owned a castle esc are they better than hobby wing?

[@richduperbash2966]

R Jabberjaw I think that depends. My Castle Sidewinder 1/8 ESC and my my 1/10th SCT Castle Pro, both got hotter than I'd like fairly easily running in smaller vehicles. Hobbywing makes great stuff and often comes with a program card. This Mamba Monster X is the best performing ESC I've owned though I'm pretty sure. Think it's actually only rated at 120 continuous amps, but it runs cool and puts out Crazy power. Think it's the internal 8 amp Bec, who knows... Lol. Not an expert with electronics, but notice fairly subtle changes.🙋🙋😵😵😵😱😲😎💪👊👊

Hows the hobbystar motor doing?

Hoochi Koochi motor is doing great, but my MMX ESC just took a crap😱😵😵. Went to bash 2 days ago and it went kaputs right after a hard landing. Was just reading data log...etc. No throttle output. Think the circuit board broke??? Sending back to Castle.😂😂😥🍻

[@stuart3712]

That sucks! Too cold here in Ky to play with my Kraton =(

I just got my HS motor the other day but now im trying to install it, it wont mount to stock kraton mount. the motor holes, one is off set so i cant screw both mount screws in that one pushes the motor off set and or wont screw in. what to do!?!?! You can see the holes were not drilled even just by looking... its only by a hair but sucks i dont have any tools to grind out space on the mount to fix it..

[@richduperbash2966]

Hoochi Koochi that's weird??? My 1730kv mounted up no problem. Think it had 3 and 4M mounting holes. My 4M stock bolts mounted up no problem.🤔🤔

Rich is a great driver. Gary not so much haha...

Sean Hatch I think he needs to get used to the area. Plus I can't help but think he might be a little intimidated being bashing with the great rich duperbash and the Holy grail of bash sites! He gets pretty sick on his home turf! But he had some pretty sick jumps and landings.

Do you use discord? if not be cool if you did. You could make a Ch for RC's so we could jump in as a RC discord community. Just in case you dont know what discord is, its a free voice chat used for games or not and has cool features like easy posting pics, chat and other cool stuff. It works with phones and you can post pic and clips in the chat on the fly. Also keeps things privet too. If not thats cool, just a random idea.

[@richduperbash2966]

Hoochi Koochi haven't used it, but might check it out. I'm on Facebook and use the Messenger app daily. 😎💪👊👊
