I can see the weight and handling difference in the video. The Kraton bounces around over the bumps quite a bit vs the Sledge staying quite well planted, just soaking it up. Kraton is lighter, quicker on it's feet and more eager. My local hobby shop had them both side by side today. The tire compound and foams are much softer on the Sledge. The Kraton s are very Hard and firm by comparison. Kraton harder tire set, better for smooth track and high speed handling Sledge soft tire set, Better for off road rough terrain handling. Great vid, great comparison

The sledge is $699 compared to a Kraton 6s which is only $549 and the Kraton can easily accept all different motor and esc upgrades while cuz the sledges motor mount is a caged fit around the included motor it’s made specifically to fit it so in order to use bigger more powerful motor you gotta speed more extra money to buy a different designed motor mount/center diff mount to fit that different setup

Forsure earl! The kraton been out for some years and wasnt even the most up to date kraton he ran being rtr and not the exb. But I understand why he chose to do rtr vs rtr and not rtr vs exb. I think he was fair forsure in the video but his traxxas love deff showed just a little. I noticed him say "ohh no" on one of the categories when the kraton performed the trick that the sledge didnt lol. Both cars r dope, and I think traxxas and arrma both give us a damn good reason to buy both brands!

I have the Sledge and the Kraton too. I have the feeling that the Sledge has more Punch, and Batteries last longer. The Kraton feels really stable at top Speed. I Ordered a Motor Fan for the Sledge, but i have the feel its not really nessesary. The Kraton really need one, without u have to do breaks and wait a bit to cool down. The Copperhead Tires are better glued by factory. The diffs on that kraton makes me crazy. I broke 1 front Driveshaft on my Sledge, my maxx is still my number 1 hardcore basher.

I"m deciding Sledge or E Revo 2.0 (cost not a factor). Which do you like better for speed runs and minor to moderate bashing? Novice at fixing (I only have a Rustler VXL 4x4) but getting better as I go. Feel free to do a comparison video but an answer with lite detail would help a lot. Main draw to the E Revo is the passion of the people behind it and my buds have one which means I could get help fixing it. Draw to the Sledge is future proof and apparently it's easy to fix. Thanks for any help.

I run a 8s castle system in my Kraton 1/8 EXB that can't fit in the Sledge. I own several Arrmas and Traxxas RCs. I think the are pretty closely matched but the price point goes to Arrma.

You can call Traxxas about anything on your RC and they will accommodate you. Horizon’s customer service, while not the easiest to navigate, is average.

I do own an E-RevoVXL 2.0 and have been having a ball with it …. The E-Revo to me is an off-road speed wagon that you can terrain bash with some mild jumps along the way but it’s not for big air sends …. You will break stuff….. the sledge is similar in size as the E-Revo but like in your video …. You can really send it ……all and all Traxxas has built a true off road BASHER!!!

I always try to see what all brands have to offer rather than be a fan of a single manufacturer because they all do some things differently and all in all it is the customer who is the winner anyway because of the market competition between the brands. This is why I have both Traxxas and Arrma RCs, Xbox and Playstation game consoles etc. That said, in this case I'm rooting for the new addition to the hobby which is the Sledge and I think it is going to win your competition because there is no way Traxxas didn't focus on improving things from the most popular truggy on the market which is the Kraton. But I also think that the Sledge, being all new, will have some issues that will be fixed along the way with updated revisions, just like in every other model from any manufacturer.

Congratulations, you nailed both of your comparison videos! Plus, it was a lot of fun watching. I don't have a horse in this race as I have the erevo 2.0 and the 6s kraton exb as well as a serpent 811t for 1/8 fun. All different, all a blast. They all have their strengths and weaknesses. There is no perfect rc. It looks like traxxas used lighter shock oil or maybe the extra weight allowing the suspension to soak up the rough stuff without bottoming out constantly, looking at you erevo. Putting 70w in the rear shocks takes most of the bounce out of the kraton and I agree, on a track the lighter kraton wins. Not a clock cleaning but a win. Arrma and traxxas both did a good job on suspension tune out of the box for most drivers and terrain. Air control definitely favors the sledge and as far as chassis/driveline goes probably the more durable. Pretty sure traxxas will address the spur gear quickly. Try putting the copperhead 2's on your erevo. Don't know what the air control is but on the ground they're the best I've tried. Weight and offset are just right.Traxxas ptfe coated shocks are a huge improvement as well. Great video, glad both gave a good showing and stayed together. Choices and competition are always welcome.

I know this was an out of the box test but I'd add a bigger pinion to the Arrma just by a couple of teeth and it flips a hell of alot better. The tyre's made a big difference too. The Sledgehammer's balloon a bit more than the Arrma's stock tyre's as one's designed to flip and the other is for a track. A truly fair test is to run them with the same tyre's. I'd love to see them go head to head with the same pinion size and matching boot's. Out of the box I agree the Sledge is slightly better,,, but give the Arrma stunt tyre's like the Sledge has got,,,, I think the Arrma would win. Nice video dude 👍 😎 🙏

Depending on the promos (the Kraton was just $75 off when I got mine) as well as the proprietary battery and charger costs, the Sledge is just too much pricier to simply pass off as "$200 more".
