I definitely enjoy the technical side of things!

[@manski209]

@ Me too. I own 9 arrmas and not one is stock, I also really enjoy building fpv drones and a few electric skateboards under my belt. Fpv drones is a little more challenging due to the electronics software involved but so much fun. Electric skateboards are belt driven with dual 6374 outrunner motors, a 10S4P battery and also the electronics software involved. I really enjoy your channel so, just keep bringing the content and we'll keep watching. You need to put some affiliates on your channel and make some money cause i know making content is not easy, it takes a punch just to make one video. you're videos are awesome, straight up and into the depth right away, that's why we watch.

[@rrrccc1571]

Loved watching that come together. Always learn something from your videos and your explanation of how the LSD works in these was great as i never really knew the difference.

Interestingly the principal behind the way these work is similar to the way some limited slip and lockers work in full size vehicles.

[@nothing-i1x9l]

Thanks so much for comparing the weighs! That solved my concerns over years😂

Yeah most people tend to overestimate how much weight upgrades will add.

Man, I want one!!!! Can't wait till I get my hands on one. I love the whole ARRMA 6S line! Mostly, it's all interchangeable. So many different combinations you can play with in the whole 6s line it's a beautiful thing.

[@DoRC]

The interchangeability is awesome

[@TheBiteSize]

18:44 yup it was never installed. And proves how rigid and tight it performs. Great vid! 🍻

Unreal build mate beast mode !... I would love to see more raw footage on your bashing, little talk through and reactions from yourself when it comes to your upgrades, unboxing and reviews etc... I feel it would top your content off perfectly 🤞👍

Yeah I've had quite a few people recommend that. I actually took it out of my videos a while back because my retention showed people weren't really interested in it but maybe I'll try adding a little bit of it back in.

[@kurtsrcTV]

@DoRC yeah that would be great if you did mate 👌 I get that you've focused more on giving people good advise and ideas on builds etc which is ideal for the audience and newbies. But yeah that raw footage will gibe it that more entertainment feeling by your reactions etc. I know it can be a lot to add all that in to a video at the same time though..

[@Eddybee6490]

A quick recommendation, when using loktite on a screw that goes into a closed hole (like on the centre diff), the loktite should go in the hole and not on the screw. If its on the screw, the air pressure would push the loktite up and off the threads, decreasing thread coverage.

[@DoRC]

Great tip!

Welcome to the hobby and I'm glad you're enjoying!

[@rustlerboi1052]

That limited slip center diff design with the “clutch” is super cool. Has this ever been done in RC before?

[@DoRC]

I'm not sure. It was first introduced in the original EXB 6s roller. I'd have to imagine some other company has made a similar design in the past in the RC hobby but I'm not aware of it.

[@rustlerboi1052]

@ Also I said it before I think, but I really like the ratio of technical, parts analysis, & post-mortem to driving this channel has. so many other channels ignore technical substance. My favorite part about RC ends up being about the build itself, how the designers thought about architecting the parts, and looking at what parts fail and wear under specific loads.

[@DoRC]

@rustlerboi1052 It's my favorite part too!

[@gordousmaximus]

This is proof that upgrading isn’t necessarily a “flashy vs functional” situation…..especially if you’re not going to use it as an extremely hardcore basher….man that thing looks as impressive from an aesthetic point of view as it does in real time…..expensive no doubt…. Is it worth it? Depends on your wallet and needs….. as a newbie to this hobby i cant thank you enough for these informative and in-depth videos thank you Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year !

[@DoRC]

Yeah I think worth it is definitely a subjective term. Would I recommend anybody do this kind of thing for just general bashing? No. The car is great out of the box and with a few choice upgrades is even better. That being said these sorts of projects are kind of like building a show car. It's not necessarily practical to do it but it sure is a lot of fun and this thing is an absolute tank now.

[@RoostedFilms]

I've been waiting for this one! I have the v5 and it would be great if some of the new v6 parts can be retro fit. On with the show !

[@DoRC]

Everything from the V6 can go on the V5. The only things that would really require additional parts are the body and body mounts. You would also need to swap over the shock towers as the mounting holes are different and you would need the rear wing and rear wing mount too.

[@RoostedFilms]

Awesome!! Just got my 4S Outcast, I love it. Still need to adjust punch settings, diff fluid and just get used to it. I want to do jumps but I am a little nervous, gonna just start small and try to learn air control. Thanks for the great videos!…

[@DoRC]

That's the way to do it. A lot of people immediately go for the biggest air they can and that's a mistake. It's fun but it's going to end up with something getting broken. Fine just a little jump or put a piece of plywood on a concrete block and jump that over and over until you can land on your wheels every single time. Then start working your way up. Getting the fundamentals down will really help you when you start doing big air

[@Cryptazz666]

I'm currently in the works of doing this and even more to my Outcast 6s v3! Can't wait!

[@DoRC]

Nice! What else you going to do?

[@scarifrougeone7225]

Very nice well done. A lot of nice detail and information on upgrades and how to’s. The run / bash session was very good. I just got a Milwaukee M12 model # 2401-22 variable hex screwdriver. That was a pile of left over parts nice add in there to see what all was changed for that 1lb. Difference. Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year! 🏁🏁⭐️🏁🏁

[@DoRC]

Yeah I think a lot of people overestimate how much extra weight upgrades add. Obviously if you're replacing a ton of plastic with a ton of aluminum it's going to add up but It's always important to remember that the weight you're adding is the weight of the new thing minus the weight of the old thing and often that's not really a big difference

[@scarifrougeone7225]

The new Ryobi 4V driver is awesome. It has swappable batteries and you can charge it UsB or get a 3 slot charger. It’s on sale now for $29 and so far it’s been perfect. Only thing I wish it had is a variable trigger. The trigger is just on or off but its top speed isn’t crazy so it’s been perfect for RC wrenching. That and some MIP bits and your set!

[@DoRC]

I'll take a look but for me variable triggers a must

[@SVCprints]

@@DoRC that was me too, honestly didn’t realize this wasn’t till I got it home. But the swappable batteries make it worth it for me. The top speed is just fast enough where it works. But I do wish it was variable. Just got done doing several of these upgrades to this truck myself. So far loving it! Got the treal bulk heads, M2C brace you showed, EXB front and rear braces, savox servo, same fans you used. And the aluminum center diff housing and support. Been a beast so far!

[@Dankboi420]

That cardboard trick is really good

[@BASSstarlet]

Yes but you need a spare chassi!

[@DoRC]

Well to pre-punch the holes you do but you don't actually need to do that You can just punch the holes as you go. They don't really need to be in the exact right spot as long as they're within the ballpark you can figure out which ones go where. That being said if you're removing the old chassis you're probably doing it to put a new chassis on anyway at least most of the time

[@jaceSHO]

@@BASSstarlet eh - you can draw out a template from the bottom of your truck ..

[@BASSstarlet]

@@jaceSHO That's clever!

[@jaceSHO]

@BASSstarlet indeed. And if you push a thick piece of carbord against it that will leave you with a great impression you can cut out

[@Anton-gz1go]

7:14 it actually is more functional. I have striped the threads on the stock plastic part , now the screws always back out and my esc won‘t hold on properly. I bet this won‘t hapen with those metall threads and if they back out than you can use loctite. Nice video as always!

[@DoRC]

Well yeah if the stock part is broken and upgrade would definitely be more functional :-)

[@nashanya4262]

I will say, for drivers, I use a Hyper Tough 1/4 inch compact impact for my projects. They make a brushed model for $35 ish dollars but I got the brushless version for a little more. Along with a 4 amp hour 12v battery. However I don't recommend it for 1/10 and smaller cars. It's super easy to strip things out and I've also snapped stub axles off tightening wheels way too tight. However, for larger 1/8+ projects. And it's speedy too, way faster than an electric screwdriver. You just gotta be careful lol If impacts aren't your style, Hyper Tough does make electric screwdrivers as well. By the way, hyper tough is a Walmart brand. So they're pretty easy to get ahold of. LOL

[@DoRC]

Yeah that's one of the things I really like about these drivers. With the modification I showed in a previous video you can use them all the way down to Grom screws.

[@nashanya4262]

​@@DoRC yeah the impact I use would absolutely destroy those poor grom screws. So I use hand tools for those. So while that impact is fast and efficient, it's limited use. 😅

[@DoRC]

I have done an upgrade video on the forest outcast so it wasn't quite as extreme as this. Honestly there aren't really that many upgrade parts available for the 3/4s line. Since everything's kind of integrated and plastic it's a lot harder for manufacturers to make upgrades like they can on these platforms

[@dylanwhite6539]

I’d highly recommend you check out hobbystar servos. They have a variety of budget options, but imo the best are the 4724 and 4717. If I’m not mistaken the board is the floating type and the lower gasket is a pain to reinstall so if you’re going to water test it, do that before disassembly. They’re very torquey and fast on 8.4v, and I also found them to be cool running, at least in the erevo which also has the best thermal design for servos.

[@RUZTY1311]

[@RUZTY1311]

You have a ton of comments so hopefully this wont get lost, but it's very important to clean each new screw and even old screws with rubbing alcohol or brake cleaner before applying loctite and screwing into metal or they will back out quickly :) Maybe you've covered this before but you didn't mention it in this video

[@DoRC]

I have mentioned it and Yes it is definitely best to do that. I tend to not do it unless it's on a grub screw or something that I know has a tendency to back out. This of course is too by detriment because I do have screws back out sometimes :-)

[@dylanwhite6539]

@@DoRCthe big thing I like about the Amazon basics driver is the shape. It’s basically a screwdriver handle, so you a sung up a screw and finish the last bit by hand. Before it I had the dewalt gyro drive and it was a PITA. The difference between torque level 1 and 5 were almost indistinguishable. It was always a game of twisting the clutch up real high to break screws loose and then taking it low to reinstall. Wouldn’t recommend.

If your just doing a chassis swap.. Tuck a towel under the rig supporting everything.. Then take all the screws out.. And then it's a reverse process to install the new chassis 👌 work's pretty well

Arrma has been doing a great job this year, can’t wait until 2025. The notorious does look really fun, is it true it feels like a Kraton and an Outcast baby?

[@DoRC]

The outcast and notorious are basically the same vehicle just with different bodies. It's kind of similar to Kraton but the much shorter wheelbase means it's a lot harder to keep the front tires on the ground. This can be good or bad depending on what you're looking for. It's harder to control but it's also more playful

[@djtazzmtl]

That SMC! Mmmmmmm

[@DoRC]

Yeah they make really good batteries. I have tried a bunch of different brands over the years and have settled on SMC long-term. Obviously nothing's perfect but they consistently rank at the top of test charts and they stand by their stuff if there are problems

[@andrewfrench4850]

I've tried a bunch different drivers DeWalt Makita there all great but tork settings are a must most drivers are to powerful for rc I've found that Bauer 4volt driver from harbor freight is perfect cheap doesn't have tork settings but I have never stripped anything with it cause the low tork just enough to tighten but not strip the plastic threads great breakdown of car great imfo from your channel

[@DoRC]

Yeah the problem I have with low torque drivers is that they sometimes don't have the jam to loosen thread locked screws.

[@WowoodogPlays]

You should have got the new paint job one. But this one looks cool too

[@DoRC]

I thought about it but between the two I just preferred the black.

[@WowoodogPlays]

@ all good. You want something that you are proud of purchasing

[@miketube6662]

What a build

[@DoRC]

I'm happy with it!

[@n00b247]

Merry Christmas!!!!111

[@DoRC]

Thanks same to you :-)

[@Paul0088]

Yea that shock nut was missing you can see it when you checked the weight, also the screw in the esc wire holder is missing also, good job though looks pretty good.

[@DoRC]

Yeah I noticed that when I was editing. I was pretty sure that was the case since I've literally never lost one of those in the past.

[@brucebaker0316]

Another Great video bud..!! 🤟 Question..are your giveaways over? You haven't contacted me yet! 😅

[@DoRC]

I still haven't done the drawing for the ramp yet. Should be in the next couple of days I've just been kind of overwhelmed with holiday stuff as you do

[@brucebaker0316]

@DoRC Awesome no worries just curiosity 😉

[@DoRC]

@brucebaker0316 I'll definitely keep my eyes open for another one

[@Hobz79]

I got a used DeWalt gyro driver with the twistable handle. Too expensive new really, but the 8v battery gives good rpm compared to my old one.

[@DoRC]

Yeah I've had one of those in the past. It was good though I wasn't super impressed with the speed or torque

[@Hobz79]

@DoRC true, It would be nice to have something faster without resorting to my impact driver

[@AVERAGEJOERC]

Dude can u review yipin servos? They come with spare gears and they have some crazy cheap prices for what they rate the speed and power

[@DoRC]

I will check them out!

[@Boogie_the_cat]

I own a Yipin "70kg" servo and it's fine, but for a similar price I also got an AGFRC 62 kg 12-16.8 volt direct power servo, which kicks ass. The Yipin did include an extra gear, it looks like the first gear that comes out of the motor, the one which has the least stress on it. I used the Yipin for a couple months, and it's hard to compare its power to the AGF, because I didn't tighten my servo saver (which was really loose) until after installing the AGF. But the AGF is definitely faster at 12v than the Yipin was at 7.4.

[@AVERAGEJOERC]

@Boogie_the_cat ya ive tried a bunch of them now. The ak47 and. the ak70 is in my xmaxx for over a year and its been flawless. The ak series come with 3 gears in the box.. ive used the 35kg ones in my 10th scale cars ive only roke one and it was from a really hard hit

[@gillyboyNY]

How do you know K? 😂 Merry Christmas 🎄

[@DoRC]

Not sure what you mean? Thanks you too!

[@gillyboyNY]

@ oh, you said how do you know longer screws can destroy an ESC 😂

[@DoRC]

@gillyboyNY ah. Brand new Max6 a few years ago. Killed it with a screw.

[@UserWasBannedForThisPost]

You should do a video on the Worx WX242 driver. It’s only sold on Ali for about 30$. 0.15-5Nm clutch setting. It has the lightest clutch and nicest design I have ever seen.

[@UserWasBannedForThisPost]

And you can also try the TOPK magnetic tip usb-c charging cable with it. It gets you Apple MagSafe like charging by usb-c for 3$. Also only on Ali.

[@DoRC]

I'll check it out

[@justatyranitar]

What’s a good servo for a Mojave 4s??? I’m new to rc/ upgrading.

[@DoRC]

I usually recommend the power Hobby 729 but I've been really impressed with these savox servos. The one in this video would be a great option. It's not cheap but it would probably last you a long time.

[@Soney_Manic]

Great video. Taking into account the runs you mostly run in dirt n sand. I’d love to see your take on after run clean up etc a modern video. Otherwise nice1.

[@DoRC]

Yeah I'm planning on doing that in one of my videos coming up soon

[@Soney_Manic]

@ sweet. Look forward to it. Always good to get others take on after run cleaning.

[@litianliu8270]

Hi, I am thinking to add chassis bash bar to the Big rock 6s. However, the modification seems needed. Could you make a video how to add bash bar to the 6s big rock. its chassis is the weak point of that truck for sure

[@DoRC]

I don't currently have a big rock 6S unfortunately
