"Motivation" ARRMA Outcast 8s EXB RTR Large Scale Monster!!!

Best in class Large Scale RC stunt truck hands down. Here's an epic group session I thought was lost due to a glitch with my GoPro. Turns out the footage got misfiled to 2016....Lol. Running the stock motor with a Max5 ESC and 25/39 gearing. The stock steering servo has been awesome!!!

[@drrcstunt]

Nice Brother Rich, really impressive Outcast 8s i like them 💪💪, As always, a great show with your videos, that place is really great and the bash is powerful. good bash my friend 🚀😎👊

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so very much Brother David 😱!!! Such a fun group session. Love the O8s EXB RTR. Building an M2C 12s "Mega Kraton" at the moment with a Hobbywing 70125 560kv Max4 combo. Truly appreciate the kind words. Hope all is well my friend. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Sick Bash session! 👊Glad you found that footage. It's crazy how that ramp shaver moved the ramp so much. 😂 Those 5th scales are no joke!

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so very much Horace 🤗. Yeah I was beyond bummed when I couldn't find any of this session months ago 😭. Figured I had accidentally switched my GoPro to Photo mode. Found it by pure chance when my camera glitched again recently and led me to a 2016 file 😂. So many cool angles and funny moments that session 😱🤣. Had a great time with you ripping around on Father's Day. Thanks for making it Brother and bringing your ramps 🍻

[@3SonsRC]

Great video here my friend, Outcast 8s EXB RTR is the best value in big RC right now.... Killing it bro

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so very much Brother Dennis 🤗. I gotta agree with you on this one. Such a capable Beast and fun as heck 😍. The stock 1100kv motor hauls ass and the stock servo is a huge upgrade from previous RTR's. ARRMA nailed it with this one. 🍻

[@CommanderAstigRC]

Big girl look dialed nicely. Seems super responsive on those back to back backflips 😍👌🚀. Those super smooth downhill landings are absolutely awesome and satisfying to watch brother. Hope you're feeling a lot better.

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so very much Brother Chris 🤗. So impressed with the O8s EXB RTR 👀. The stock 1100kv motor woke up nicely with the Max5 and taller gearing. Love hitting the down ramps and had a blast with the guys 😱🤣🤣. I'm feeling like myself again, just gotta heal up a bit more to lift these Big girls and the ramps. Truly appreciate it Bro. 🍻😎💪👊👊

[@larryowens3378]

@@richduperbash2966 how long have you had this Outcast, and how you like it compared to the XMaxx?

[@richduperbash2966]

I've had it since it first released probably 8 or 9 months ago 🤔. It's worlds apart from the XMaxx in terms of handling and ultimate durability. Both are fun trucks, but the Outcast is my favorite no question. The XMaxx can be made durable for more extreme bashing, but it takes a whole lot of upgrading and modifications.

[@larryowens3378]

@@richduperbash2966 ok cool thanks, what are some weak links to watch for on the Outcast if any?

[@richduperbash2966]

I recommend swapping the stock plastic brace ends for M2C aluminum ones if you're snapping the stock ones. Those paired with their hardened steel brace set pins work fantastic 💪. Also adding 12x14mm carbon fiber tubing over the front upper chassis brace will keep it solid. It's available off Amazon. Wise to carry a set of spare A arms in case you completely stack it or hit an inanimate, unmovable object 😂

[@justblaze1980]

Sweet launches 👍. I ll admit I’m addicted to jumping RC s . I like the whole thing . Especially going out to somewhere secluded for an hour or so where it’s peaceful . I’ve been seeing some cool animal activity .

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks Brother 😁. That's so awesome to hear!!! I'm an avid hiker and fisherman. Secluded places with deer, birds, turtles, frogs, jack rabbits, and coyotes are fine by me. I'm fairly certain I saw a California Condor while bashing last summer. It's so rejuvenating to get outdoors and bashing is perfect for that if you find a good area. 🍻

The best bashing content out there, had a traxxas x maxx before man that thing broke left and right definitely no comparison to the outcast 8s exb

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so very much Brother 🤗. The XMaxx takes a ton of upgrades to make decent and even then it's a crapshoot busting bulkheads and plastic bits. Owning and bashing both is where the truth becomes apparent. Love the O8s EXB 😍

Sadly this spot is just about completely gone Chris. After years of killer bashing, they pulled the gravel for nearby development. You'll see a hotel under construction in the same area. Behind Walgreens at 12 Bridges and Fieldstone.

Sick video brotha is that thing running stock ? Also i sold my xmaxx for this arma 8s exb blx will I have fun with it ? I was gonna get a kraton but I wanted more of a truck like car

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks Jakob 🤗. I upgraded the ESC for an original Hobbywing Max5 (non-sensored). Still running stock 1100kv motor and servo just advanced the gearing to 25/39. It runs fast with great temps. The stock 160A Spectrum ESC was ok, but the Max5 allows the motor to achieve its potential.

[@818_Custom_Garage]

Have you checked aged diff fluids at all? If so, what’s your preference? Awesome vids!!

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks Brother 😊. I like Silicone ear plugs center, 1 million front, and 500k rear. I use Rite aid brand premium ear plugs and Team Associated fluids.

[@818_Custom_Garage]

@@richduperbash2966 thank you very much!!! I have the ear plugs for center was debating on the front and rear setup. I’m going to try your setup!!! We gotta keep this RC community going strong into the future!!!

Brother did you ever buy the losi pro moto mx ? If you didnt man im sure im the 100th guy to tell to grab that beast it will blow your mind we will all love to see you send that rc dirt bike

[@richduperbash2966]

No I haven't grabbed one yet. They look awesome, the engineering is truly impressive. I got a bit turned off seeing spokes bending. I'm sure there's upgrades at this point. Might have to take another look, especially having grown up on dirt bikes 😍

[@joelhamilton6784]

Hey rich tell me how to keep my toe link screws from breaking. Almost every bash i break on the outers or inner ones and had to upgrade the steering Akerman plate and horns.

[@richduperbash2966]

That's frustrating Joel. I generally upgrade my hardware to grade 12.9 socket head screws from Monsterbolts.com whenever a bolt breaks. They sell in quantities of 10 or 50 for cheap. The outer link screw is an odd 43mm length M4. I replace mine anytime I notice it starting to bend, but haven't found a suitable direct replacement in 12.9. Make sure to use threadlock on all metal to metal fasteners and keep them snugged. Hardware tends to snap once it loosens slightly and gets torqued on. Hope this helps. 🤙

[@kmass77]

Do you like it more, or less than the 8S 1:5 sledgehammer ?

[@richduperbash2966]

This is my favorite all around large scale 😍. The stock 1100kv motor rips with 25/39 gearing and Max5 ESC.

[@KyKane]

that car is a beast. My diff was alright on the inside but i'm waiting on tekjoes gaskets as when I opened it up I only had half a gasket..Quick question what do you think about the guy putting those silicone earplugs in the diff??? 🤔 I was like hu..had to rewind to make sure i wasn't losing it..

[@richduperbash2966]

I only use silicone ear plugs in my 8s center diffs, in my ARRMA's, XMAXX, and XRT also. It's too thick for the 6s rigs in my opinion.

[@KyKane]

I wasn't going that thick. He gave me 15k for the rear. That's as close as they had he said. Should I go ahead and order some? Run what you said since I'm going to be down until around July 7th? So while all this has been going on, I was looking for a used something to play with. I saw a Kraton V5, but I've seen so many problems with it. I can't find anything that has what the Outcast has with the backflip head turner. Sure, it isn't good at all on it, but man, it sure is fun. What other would you suggest? I'm not feeling these new prices, but I still want to be able to hang with the cool kids! Lol

[@richduperbash2966]

​15k-30k rear is just fine. There's nothing wrong with the V5 K6s, however the K6s EXB RTR has way more upgrades. It and the O8s EXB RTR have been super impressive. Prices for everything have gone way up unfortunately. Stay within a reasonable budget and just enjoy the hobby. Nothing is absolutely bulletproof. I love most all my rigs including the newer budget Groms. It's just about having fun in the end and learning along the way through experimentation.

[@KyKane]

I totally agree. Short time away I forgot what I was missing..I have a drone as well rc is by far my fav...

[@KyKane]

@richduperbash2966 so those shims that sit outside the diff cupp...got ne thinking I got a lot of catching up to do lol..

[@SaltyDuck97]

Might as well buy a plane at this point lol

[@creekcreeperrc7972]

Rich are you into surface or Air RCs? Rich "yes"

[@richduperbash2966]

LMAO 😂

[@KyKane]

Rich..Can I still get the rear diff parts for the 6s? She finally gave out tonight on 6s..Can you send me in the right direction? Never changed the diff watched you serval times though so I think it's manageable!

[@richduperbash2966]

I still use Mugen planetary shims #E0206 to replace the smaller standard 6s ones (non EXB diffs). Over time, I stopped adding the smaller Mugen satellite gear shims, instead using the newer stock ARRMA outdrive shims that sit outside of the diff cup on each outdrive. Still use 2 to 3 Tekno #1222 bearing shims on the crown gear side bearing.

[@KyKane]

@richduperbash2966 okay I confirmed it is the rear..what kinda diff oil do put back? Thanks rich ur still the 🤴

[@richduperbash2966]

I usually run 50/500/20k front to rear fluids in the K6s. Usually Team Associated fluids.

[@KyKane]

So when i buy the diff is the arA20041 the same as the ara310957 I seen where someone was saying there were different ones that are not compatible.

[@richduperbash2966]

Ara20041 is not a complete part # 🤔. Not sure what that is. Standard K6s gears are spiral cut 43T ring gears. The EXB K6s uses different EXB gears. The ring and input gears must both be EXB or standard to mate properly. They use different size diff cups and internal gears as well.

[@shawnscott9704]

Jesus rich! So aside from a max 5g2 esc and taller gearing that’s it? Rest of its stock??

[@richduperbash2966]

Only added M2C alloy brace rod ends with their hardened steel pins and a carbon fiber sleeve to the front top brace. Did that months ago after snapping a plastic brace end. The Max5 is an original non-sensored borrowed from an older build.

Absolutely amazing. I took out a loan for mine in September. Only thing broken was a tie rod end , I'm terrified of launching them. Extremely tough twuck. Question is , straight outta the box which do you think is tougher , Outcast EXB Rtr V2 or X Max ??? Ohhhhhh , greetings from Portland Tn. I've got to run with Scott Johnson , lives up the street from me. Only been in the hobby a couple of years and learning ALOT from y'all. Thank you. Very much appreciated

[@richduperbash2966]

Thanks so much Scotty 🤗. Without question the EXB RTR is tougher out of the box than the XMaxx. Both are fun trucks, but the XMaxx requires tons of upgrades to make it truly durable for extreme bashing. The pot metal main gears usually blow the first big jump due to poor quality and flex in the motor mount/chassis. With proper upgrades, the XMaxx is very capable.
