Choice is good. Fun times were had with the kids, that's always good. Just don't like that Traxxas tax. Kraton 6s RTR 599.99 and its on sale right now for 529.99. None of these companies are my friends so I'll be trying to keep as much money as I can in my wallet.😉

What a stupid price comparison. The spectrum is a much better esc with more tuning options, the vxl combo is way overpriced for what you get in return. A decent bashing servo costs 50$. And just buy a 2 or 3 channel radio, plenty good radios about 30 or 40$. So it's actually a lot cheaper than the sledge. Traxxas servo is underpowered, esc is a disaster with the lights off dead and the radio is just overpriced for a 2 channel. Definitely need to replace the servo and esc within several months, maybe weeks so the arrma is much cheaper at the end, even with a m2c chassis replacement. I'm also not convinced with the Traxxas chassis but time is gonna tell. Compare the sledge with a Kronos and a kraton. All with the same tires, same electronics. I'm gonna tell you the result right now. 3 total losses for sure 😃

You quoted the Kraton EXB at FULL RETAIL with an overpriced Servo, and a ridiculous number for RXTX. This is so swayed 😂😂😂 You can literally get the motor and ESC as brand new take offs for 115$ for the set on Jennys RC. And a Amazon 35kg Servo is more than enough. My entire Kraton EXB build comes out to 80$ less than a sledge with the same system in it. 😂

For what it's worth, he _did_ put the same ESC and motor into his Kraton that come in the RTR ones. And the V5 RTR Kraton 6S actually has a lot of the durability upgrades from EXB, so should be fairly comparable to the Sledge (but is cheaper).

I think the same way Mark does, having the choice to have either is pretty cool. We should all be happy it isnt the fragile breaking cars from the 80's and super long charge times vs just a few minutes of run time.

But it's always hard to tell because everyone drives their own way. So fun to see the boys out there having fun with RC and flipping them.

Good comparison. I think they are both great cars and competition is great for our hobby. I have roughly $650 in my Kraton. $329 Black Friday, $20 metal gear servo, $260 Max 6 combo 1650kv 20T pinion, $40 Dumborc 6 channel w/avc. Gps at 66mph on grass on 6s, can run 8s. Stock punch setting (3). If the traxxas was $650-699 I’d own one as well. Can’t lose with either of these. 👍🏻

650 kraton v5 is more inline with the traxxas sledge. The exb can be any cost over 450. You can put a solid max 8 system for 200. That's 650. And decent remote and reciever for 100. It's 750. Servo you're at 800. 1000 is a upgraded price range. Imo.

Thanks for the video, but come on dude, the Sledge doesn't have $100 worth of servo or $200 worth of radio! Not even close, and it doesn't matter what Traxxas might charge for them. The radio is 2 channel for goodness sake! That doesn't make the Sledge a bad RC and I'm still contemplating buying one, but you sound biased by making up crazy numbers. Traxxas tires need to go in the trash out of the box though. Ain't no one gonna be replacing tires every few weeks or months and putting a decent set of wheels/tires on the Sledge is gonna bump the cost up significantly.

Hmmm, oh, they both have 4 tires, 4 shocks and a spoiler. Oh man traxxas clearly stole the idea from Aarma. How dare anyone make an RC with 4 tires and a spoiler? Man! Please. Buy what you like and quit giving a crap about what other people spend their money on. Like Mark said. Be glad you have choices.

Nice video dude! Was interesting to see how these monsters stacked up to each other. One thing I will mention though is that in the beginning the arrma was gonna run you just shy of $1k… realistically If you got all the stock Spektrum electronics from JennysRC (and I even made a video on it a while back and JRC is NOT a scam) then it would only be about $720. (I know you put a really nice Savox in there, but the stock S652 is $20 on JRC and from what I’ve seen is actually really fast and torquey) And as for the punch settings, you can adjust those with the little secondary button on the esc without the little programming card. Not trying to diss you or anything, and I like your content, just wanted to put that out there.

you must've missed his 2nd video. Slightly bent chassis, pinion gear came off and ended up stripping teeth of both the pinion and center diff. and bent rear left axle (dog bone) I believe.

Wonder how kevs would’ve held up if the motor mount screws had some loctite 🤔 debating on getting one myself that motor mount issue could be really annoying if loctite doesn’t solve it

I can say with confidence just from owning both arrma and Traxxas, that the Traxxas will definitely have the better drivetrain. Other than that, if price is no object, both are great choices. One allows you to pick whatever electronics you want, and they other comes ready to go with pretty good specs. I do prefer the c-hubs on the sledge as compared to the pillowball hubs on the kraton 6s, as well as the fixed turnbuckles on the sledge, especially if they're more durable. But it is nice to have the tuning options on the kraton as well as the LSD differentials which is neat.

It took me 5 months of purposeful attempts to break my typhon 6s. I broke an a arm from 30’ in the air. I have yet to break my kraton exb. I race and bash 4 days a week for 3 hour sessions. I’ve broke Traxxas rigs right out of the box. Not saying I don’t own a fleet of them. I have 11 Traxxas rigs but they do break often.

@@js5906 I have videos of it. I flexed the chassis so many times that my 4s has a permanent bend in it. I’m not arguing with someone who has a slash as their profile pic. My slash is the only Traxxas I have that doesn’t break every time I drive it.

@@Sackmatters we all have different experiences and the real issue is we dont acknowledge this. For example, my comparison story is....my hoss has yet to have any major breaks (only lower plastic shock cap part) and I sent in 20-30 times off big jumps. The amount of time (months/years) is really not something we can use as a metric as some people might drive their car 1 time in 6 months and another 30-50 times. That dude driving 1 time could break and have the worst exp, the other guy could break a few parts and be 100% extremely happy customer still. Now, back to my hoss story (maybe 2 battery packs through it at the time)...It was stock. I also had a stock NIB notorious, took it to the same places to jump (1 battery pack into it)...bent the chassis, bent both shock towers, and bent both rear shocks and also the top shock mount screw for 1 front shock snapped in half. I still enjoy both trucks. So it's very hard to take 1 persons experience as "this is the example we will all experience"

@@patrickmccarthy3289 I agree. I just find that Traxxas rigs are bound to fail especially in the cold and 6 months out of the year I’m driving my trucks in the snow. Even my x maxx breaks quite often. I installed a brand new front diff with ring and pinion. The first pack out on 6s it blew the front diff I had just replaced. $75 down the drain in 10 minutes.

Thats what arrma fans usually say haha, but the geometry of the kraton is indeed a bad design thus making the servos more prone to fail. So yes it is a worse truck
