New Kraton 4s WITH CENTRE DIFF! ...These Next Gen 4s rigs are AMAZING!🤯

[@GeddyRC]

I just popped a center diff in my V2 (not the 2.5) and yeah the first thing I noticed is the sound difference. Nice change from the whine of the slipper.

[@rccrazy]

Yeah I was thinking about converting my Typhon but I got all the upgraded gears, clutch and the M2C motor mount and block system so I don't think I will. Glad it's working for people though😁👍

[@Blimpus]

congrats mate, for the front , what I did was spin the protector around to the other side , this protects the drive shaft from the shock spring digging into the shaft

[@rccrazy]

Yeah sweet that works👌

[@LegendsPizzaCo]

i was confident i wanted the red color but after seeing this video the green looks beautiful

[@rccrazy]

Yeah I thought the red looked a little too similar to the older 6s so I thought why not I'll try green, so glad I did🤩 Thanks for checking out the vid✌️

[@MechanicallyFun]

These 4s rig are awesome👍 I'll try to save some money to get one. Thanks for sharing👍

[@rccrazy]

Your welcome as always mate🙂 Yes I'm sure if you enjoy strong off-road bashers this is a AWESOME option🤩

[@armandopace6113]

Happy new year to you and the family. And a great start to the year with the 4s kraton mate 👍🎉🥳🤣🤣

[@rccrazy]

Happy new year mate😁 I actually received it before new year but I've been so behind and am struggling a little with filming and editing. It is a beautiful car though yes, really enjoying it🤘 Thanks mate!

[@gillian9178]

Arrma deff need to come up with a total redesign of the steering system on the 3s & 4s line of trucks, steering getting jammed has been going on now far to long.

[@rccrazy]

Yes I have to agree, it's the only downfall really. It definitely seems like the servo saver is too loose or something though so that could be causing lockup issues aswell. Need to look into that.

[@kraftcraft2934]

Nothing flyies like a kraton

[@rccrazy]

They are definitely smooth flying rigs from the 3s all the way upto the 8s🤘

[@Mick_Au]

Niceee mate glad to see you happy with it and enjoying it. Looking forward to the speed test and more of your thoughts on it 😁😎👍🏻

[@rccrazy]

Absolutely loving it mate🥹 Yes definitely worth every cent in my opinion, it's literally just a cheaper than average 1/8 truggy option👌 I like to imagine Arrma classed it a 1/10 to keep the price low🤔 Speedrun was a bit dodgy, need new 4s lipos, but I gave dad the 4s Mojave to try out so it'll be a speedrun and a bit of Kraton vs Mojave bashing. Thanks Michael🤘

[@Mick_Au]

@@rccrazy Sounds good mate looking forward to it even though didn't work out as planned 👍

[@libaxter5347]

I really like the new Arrma Kraton 4s. I'm starting to really like the Arrma cars thanks to your vids and other sources. Great vid as always!👍👍

[@rccrazy]

They have done a great job with these rigs absolutely mate👌 Most of the Arrma rigs will always be a good option in my opinion. Thanks Li🤘

[@libaxter5347]

​@rccrazy We should definitely catch up bashing sometime. Its been a while ayyyy😅😅.

[@rcsendandblast1579]

Ohhhhhhh Wow bro. You’re getting new trucks often. ❤️😁 So happy to see you moving along getting the new rigs when they come out. 👊😎 Super awesome stuff can’t wait one day I’ll get me another 4 s arrma platform 🙏😊

[@rccrazy]

A new car every 3-4 months if my old man is willing to lend me the money, miss out on lots of cars I want to review considering I started of wanting to be a review channel😅 Yeah basically whatever looks good to me when I have some cash I will order and hopefully get a video done before too many others are already up. Thanks man!👍

[@theadmirer_]

Really nice, these newer kratons seems good. Hope i will find a nice deal. I really want a nice allround rc

[@rccrazy]

Yes they are very nice cars👌 Hopefully you can find a affordable one soon!

[@armandopace6113]

Hi mate I reckon that would be a great Skatepark basher 🤪. Yeah definitely the biggest 1/10 ever hahaha. Great video mate 🎉🙃🤣🤣🤣😊

[@rccrazy]

I thought that also😅 but our skateparks around here aren't really big enough for these bigger cars, might take it to the Newport skatepark as it has a cool bowl section but most of it is still just big jumps onto the grass. See what happens, try and get down there asap👍 Thanks mate😁

[@armandopace6113]

@rccrazy Werribee Skatepark I take one of my kraton's there a lot 👍👌😁

[@rccrazy]

Oh yeah that would be good. Sadly that's just a little too far for me these days, can't handle going to the You yanks for a downhill ride anymore either, just to far for my PTSD most days.

[@GreatLakesRC]

The green looks spectacular! Unfortunately the 4s line has terrible steering, looks like they did not really fix that. Nice unboxing and first bash 👍

[@BeauchMane]

True

[@rccrazy]

Yeah mate couldn't go past the green🤩 I wouldn't say the steering was terrible, out of the box it's a bit slack, it can be fixed/bettered. Thanks mate

[@GamezOfWar]

They have great steerjng ,they have a poor servo saver.

[@rccrazy]

@GamezOfWar yes a saver that can not be modified only changed, therefore the car has bad steering out of the box. The servos aren't great either though, mine after only 2 runs has LOTS of play at the main horn gear making for sloppy steering. Needs a high KG servo without a saver and it will have good steering👌

[@surfside75]

Your very brave sending it next to those giant boulders😅

[@rccrazy]

Brave or silly?😆 No I'm fairly confident in my abilities but yes anything can happen🫣

[@angesrc]

Really like the chassis design, keeping all the dirt and mud out of the electronics. Shame about the steering getting jammed. Overall, great review and bash as always. 👍🏼🚗

[@rccrazy]

Thanks man👊 Yeah the big mud/debris guards definitely help prevent crap ending up in the chassis. As long as the steering doesn't lock up too much I'm fine with it, only that 1 time so far🤞

[@leotruuut245]

I absolutely love it

[@rccrazy]

They are beautiful rigs yes🤩 Thanks Leo!

[@Harvz78]

Hey, is the chassis of the Kraton 4s the same on Senton 3S?

[@rccrazy]

I don't think so, I believe the Kraton chassis itself is longer than the Senton but the Kraton is also longer where the gearbox slots are and the gearbox itself is longer to compensate for the centre diff size compared to the slipper.

[@simracingchannel7691]

Yoo did these mudguards came stock ?

[@rccrazy]

Yes stock, definitely a good addition to the car👌

[@simracingchannel7691]

@@rccrazy that is great would love them for my 4S V2, do you know if they fit ?

[@rccrazy]

Possibly, the older arms don't have the mounting holes but you could easily drill some. Honestly you can make your own out of any type of flexible plastic, I use basic 1mm sheet plastic from the hardware store for all sorts of mud/bash guards. Then you can drill the mounting positions wherever you need😁

[@simracingchannel7691]

@@rccrazy thanks i will look into it. Might try to see if i can get some 3d designs.

[@brendanohalloran892]

Mine was missing the center drive shaft bearing. Only notice it was missing when i started checking everything over before the first run. I had it sitting on the bench looking at me for a week till i went out and brought a bearing since the hobby shop didn't just send me a bearing instead they were waiting on the supplier to respond.😠

[@rccrazy]

Oh that not good having bearings missing🫤 In regards to the store not sending the missing parts without contacting Horizon, that is very common as the store even though not much $$$$ for a single bearing the store still looses out if Horizon don't agree to send the parts or don't pay for the missing parts as they should.

[@Boogie_the_cat]

Why didn't you contact Horizon directly? All it took is 2 emails and they shipped out my part with two-day airmail delivery. They're great to work with. I'd never used warranty service before and I assumed it'd be like pulling teeth from an angry crocodile.

[@timallen6035]

Good video as, always. Looks like a pretty good truck. Yeah, that does stink about the steering getting bound up. I think cringed as much as you did based on the sound on that first crash when it hit that front wheel.

[@rccrazy]

Yeah the first crash wasn't so nice, the second was basically a casual roll through the park😅 It is a very well built and capable truck, I'm very glad I was able to get one for the channel! Hopefully the steering is a cheap easy fix🤞 Thanks heaps Tim👍

[@doubledome2076]

It's a bit pricey for 4s, bit might just babe to go for it. Great video‼️👍👍🦾🦾🤘🤘

[@rccrazy]

Thanks Dome👍 I think focusing more on capabilities and actual size may be a better way to comprehend the price, I mean $780aud for this or $1000aud fir a Slash 3s🤔😅

[@doubledome2076]

@@rccrazy agreed‼️👍👍🦾🦾🤘🤘

[@katarraaa]

Does the 6s exb body fit on the 4s

[@rccrazy]

It could be made to fit, it's only just bigger than the 4s body but the post holes are in different spots so you'd need to drill new post holes. The 4s shell is SO MUCH STRONGER though, double the thickness of the 6s body💪

[@Joercgarage]

I will say while the steering is not perfect if you ran in a different area u will mostly Likely not lock up the steering like that but that your bash spot it is what it is..

[@rccrazy]

Yes obviously if I was not driving on bark/wood chips it wouldn't get blocked up but this is the spot I have and it's safer for the cars landing on the nice soft bark😅

[@Joercgarage]

@@rccrazy it’s a great spot

[@jjonwards]

Arrma why u doing this to my wallet 🤣 here’s another rig I need to get

[@rccrazy]

Tell me about it😱😆

[@waylinvanhalen]

whered u euros learn how to say aluminum

[@rccrazy]

Euros? Australia mate, and its spelt aluminium😆

[@Boogie_the_cat]

Wow. You really are a greenhorn huh? Can't detect an Aussie accent, never learned that in most other countries, "aluminum" is not used. They renamed the element into "aluminium" because the elemental structure is more akin to the elements that end in "ium" so everyone except north America refers to it as aluminium. God damn, you didn't learn anything in school. Probably too busy playing Angry Birds or whacking it to The Sims. How sad. For you.

[@teinspringz]

$790 is a bit too pricey for me.

[@rccrazy]

I don't know if you mean because you would be able to afford it or you think it's over priced. But in regards to price I personally think it's spot on for what you get. It's a super capable, super tough and fast 1/10 car but in actual fact it's 100% 1/8. Therefore making it a VERY well priced car considering the time we live in🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑

[@lyricofwise6894]

​​​​​@@rccrazy 800 usd is way overpriced for a stock kraton 4s

[@rccrazy]

Aud mate so 536usd

[@chubn1]

Worthless driveshafts, bellcranks are garbage the servo was a glitchy hot mess, the motor sounded like a rock tumbler mixed with a hint of kazoo...went through a couple sessions then threw the whole truck in the trash.

[@rccrazy]

What in the world are you talking about?🤣

[@surfside75]

-Funny (troll comment) as you still buy arrma I found.

[@rccrazy]

The funny thing is they state they done a few sessions with it but the v2.5 hadn't been in existence that long when they commented, clearly talking about a different versions😆🤦

[@Boogie_the_cat]

​@@rccrazythe real funny part is no one, not even the most die-hard of morons, throws a $600 (American dollar) truck in the trash. It's a troll. Probably Traxxas CEO wrote it, part of his daily work trashing Arrma's reputation. So many toxic a$$holes in RC these days, it's sad that these people fall so much in love with one company that they lose their freaking minds. It's getting worse every year. Fanboys ruin the hobby, or they try to.

[@rccrazy]

@Boogie_the_cat yeah some people just can't help themselves hey😅 And yes I like to spread my experiences around and you can't do that without trying different, better, worse, whatever to get the most fun and enjoyment.
