That a v4 Kraton with the tower brace removed or is it a v3? Seems like you don't have any issues with the arrma v4 based models that addressed virtually all the v3 chassis issues (aside from the ads15 servo that arrma just needs to bin). Arrma diffs do tend to need to be shimmed though - but then they're quite durable. Haven't broke a single thing in my v4 Talion besides a single shock rod end. Definitely agree on how much of a pita the erevo can be. I hate working on that chassis.

Things I don't get triggered bY: 1. Anything on youtube otherwise: 2. You don't have a Talion (or Typhon) because you bought what they all told to buy. Of six Arrma RC's I own, the V4 Kraton 6s is my least fav. The V3 Talion, my first, is my best. 3. XMaxx may be solid but I don't buy from tricksters any more. I've sold or let sit all my Traxxas vehicles....including VXL Slash that still can't get right even with piles $ in it, and ER-2.0 that I was glad I sold off. Absolute fail, that one. 4. Why buy a 4s Arrma when 3s is very solid and 6s are unbeatable? 4s was made for the middle road buyer and in any tech or anything, middle of the road is always the one that is least dependable. rofl. Anyway, nice show. Again, I don't downvote. I only upvote what I like and I upvoted here.

Ive destroyed the plastic servo and only one drive shaft...over all i would recommend the Rustler 4x4 vxl to anyone, but if u bash hard you will need upgrades...ohh and yes...replace the shock caps with metal ones. the plastic ones come off relatively easy and then i got to clean up a dirty oily truck.

Sound vid KT! Glad you say it how it is and stand up for the end user - these things are spen! Basically, i'd rather be driving than fixing. Too many other things to do in life without spending hours fixing RCs every time they get used. So RC manufacturers, why is my 6 year old Vorza is still running tougher and better made than any Arrmas or Traxxas?? My Mugen whups them all! The Arrma Swiss cheese chassis are way too weak (too thin and v poor quality al) and plastics inconsistent. The E Revo (my ultimate shelf queen) sheds rod ends like confetti, or breaks something different every time! The Slash snaps metal stub axles, but is otherwise pretty strong. Those Traxxas clipless body shells are junk - always coming off or pulling the shell apart. So Arrma and Traxxas - step it up! Durability durability durability!!! I want a bomber V5 Kraton, but not buying the current one and dropping £500 making it useable. Wouldn't touch the E Revo 2.

Hey kev, thanks for the long time rc videos. I wouldn't be in rc if it wasnt for you. I recently switched to arrma from my traxxas xmaxx and e revo. I will admit the xmaxx is much more durable then the arrma kraton stock but 1 thing i think you should have considered in your review was pure drivability. While the xmaxx drives nice I grew board with it because of its size being so large I couldn't do as much stunts and stuff. I think the kraton is hands down one of the best handling and pure drivable rc I have driven and I have had an xmaxx 3 Revos a traxxas summit and a new rustler vxl 4x4. I think the kraton defenitly drives so much better. I do agree most of those problems you mentioned with the kraton I have dealt with as well but I definitely think you gotta consider the drivability of these rc. Even as a basher handling can change a driving experience.

KEV, your opinion on putting a max 5 & def an upgraded motor on the 8S Kraton?? It does come with the smart features but looking for good ol’ clean fun power. If not, what would you recommend?? 4s also?? Thx KEV.

I have a Traxxas 2 Wheel Drive slash and wow it puts a smile on my face, probably one of the most invincible cars I’ve ever had.

I have the 4x4 rustler too and had the same problem with the drive shafts breaking I installed the tekno m6 drive shafts on it and it's been fine since they well pop out of the cups but I prefer that over breaking and they're about a third of the price of the mips and the traxxas upgrades

Kev, on the X-Maxx to keep the body from flexing, when you really airing it out, could you not install some small steel rods on the bottom of the chassis to help stiffen it and keep it from flexing?

Thanks you, you helped me make a better decision.

Honestly as far as the rustler goes. I would recommend the tekno axles and the Traxxas gtr shocks are worth the money

I did some huge jumps with my arrma talion and it was stock. Didnt break anything. I guess people just drive/bash differently.

@THE NPC i jumped 50 feet and landed on top of an old hot water heater 3 times and didnt break anything. So it was preeltty huge.

@THE NPC im not lying, or exaggerating, it all really happened, and nothing broke. I believe they can break as i have seen it happen irl. And im not an arrma fanboy, I've got traxxas, axial, arrma, tamiya and all other sorts of brands of rc's.

@THE NPC what rc would you recommend to someone since you seem to know so much?

@THE NPC my dude, i was just looking for a legit suggestion. Im well aware that every brand has good and bad trucks
@maxxdavidson77955 жыл бұрын
kev i think the reason your breaking your upgraded traxxas drive shafts on your slash is because of the RPM arms flexing and causing the shafts to snap

i have learned thru the years that if someone puts down another it is because they had bad times and jealous of others cause the have something or done something better than they have......all i can say is if something isn't the way you/they like just use it as a learning curve to make it the way you want......as long as you are or had fun THEN YOU DID THE BEST YOU CAN AND KEEP IT UP....IN SHORT......YOU NEVER CAN GO WRONG IF YOUR HAVING FUN EVEN IF IT IS VERY SMALL.....FUN IS JUST FUN

I was thinking of getting the arrma outcast especially after you said that it's pretty strong. Do you have the 1/8 or the 1/10?
@KevinTalbotTV5 жыл бұрын
both, 110 is strong, 18 is ok but could do with a lot of upgrades

Just buy an MT410 at the end of the day you will have more money in an Outcast than the Tekno.
