REBUiLD! HUGE KRAKEN RC Class 1 TSK for the Off Road HPI Baja 5B/SC/T | RC ADVENTURES

After much abuse, and many years of racing - it is time for Everett to re-build his Kraken RC Class 1 TSK (True Scale Kit) for his HPI Baja 5T. This thing is FAR from Stock - and Ev wants to make it even STRONGER! By installing the Kraken X3 Chassis, new Fonzie-RC Beef Links for his arm suspension links, as well as an Engine from OBR Racing and a Vertigo Clutch Kit assembly - we actually got quite far in this episode. From a box of parts.. into almost a full roller - check it out as Everett and I bumble our way through the process!
This thing is a BEAST!

[@RCKING1]

Damm I remember when you did that release video I thought it was the coolest truck ever!! I think it still is one of my favourite 1/5th scale builds out there so I am vary much happy to see it coming back!! 👍🏼👍🏼

[@evtek3962]

_RC_KING_ thanks very much and the support over the years man.

[@f1zzycx286]

I'm watching from Mississippi in sturgis I love your videos

[@almighty151986]

Can't wait to see this finished! Just finishing my Kraken build and will ordering the last few parts over the next few days. Video in my channel :P - This particular version of the cage has been discontinued though and the cage you showed on DDM is completely different, after 4 weeks of searching I finally managed to track down the same cage Everett is using and it may very well be one of the last and newest cages in the world.

[@GeneralHobbies]

put a smiley face on that shroud : )

[@BOTAJELL]

Did you guys finish the r build yet on this? I'm looking for it all over your channel and can't find it.

[@scottgeoghegan1808]

Love your videos been watching them for a long time from lake panasoffkee. Fl

[@siffonen]

great looking baja, i own a 5b with few mods. ditched pullstart because had many problems with them (i ride in sand) and purchased a killer rc drill start and love it

[@evtek3962]

siffonen I had issued until I changed it to the bearing cogs.

[@siffonen]

EV TEK you mean turtle pull start? i was going buy it but some people had problems with it and it was way more expensive than the drill start system. only negative thing is carrying the drill

[@evtek3962]

Yes. It's not perfect though. I didn't like it at first at all. But after the bearing cogs and graphite lube every outing it's never failed me since. I don't put it on my race rigs though as it's heavy.

[@markamd1]

You guys are awesome!!!! Wicked Vid!

[@dantyler7028]

hey from uk that's a beast 👍👍

[@whiteboy2600]

wish i could buy another rc a fast one so my dog can run after it so win win for both and you all have a great night thumbs up

[@humblerc841]

hahaha, the tool I'm missing is always in my pocket or my left hand!

[@cbr600fu2]

hahahaha the business card all ripped up for doob filters! hilarious.

[@ghmakes7853]

Sadly not... I have wondered about that though - The business card's for setting your flywheel/ignition coil gap.

[@evtek3962]

cbr600fu2 lol. actually it's just how the tag tore off the fonzie links package.

[@gavanreid2888]

Mate I'm from Australia and love the video big fella and I want your shirt I just ordered a sx-5 sidewinder today to put on my Baja 5b can't wait to see how that works out

[@BraxxJuventa]

[@evtek3962]

Six Shooter yup

[@skold75]

Great video!

[@Nickwillfixit]

Everett's Kraken RC tsk is the first Class 1 kit Kraken brought out not the tsk-b as you showed on DDM's site I don't think you can get the tsk anymore, Everett's fits the 5T & SC, you can fit it to the 5B but you have to buy all the body mounting parts for the conversion to take a 5B to the 5T/SC, where as the one you showed is for the 5B, you can fit it on the 5T/SC but you will need to remove all the truck body mounting parts. I found the Kraken chassis was very good but needs to have a thicker lip along the top edges where the tank and radio box fit it flex's along there, I always bolt the tank to the chassis to stop flex as you needed to for the stock HPI chassis and do not use the radio box, I use the Team Fast Eddy battery box eliminator servo mounts one for the steering and one for the throttle/brake and the Associated receiver box and a carbon fibre battery tray. HPI bought the rights to the Kraken-RC SX5 Sandrail and the tsk-b Class 1 buggy and sell them as RTR on the 5B 2.0 Baja chassis, at the moment you can get the tsk-b from Kraken DDM and any shops with stock, but I think when stock's are gone that is it, so anyone who wants the tsk-b best search out one.I have both and the tsk-b is the nicer looking of the two but the tsk is the stronger of them.

[@TheRealRCSparks]

Ohhhhhhhh... that makes MORE sense! Thanks for pointing that out. I had to re-read your comment.. thanks Nick!

[@SlackinPanda]

Yeah, TSK-1 is no longer produced and has been discontinued on DDMs site. I believe the panels are still available until stock runs out. TSK-1 actually got discontinued around the same time the Kraken launched.
