Reefs RC BEAST 1000 Servo in the Kraton 8s! NO SAVER!!

[@mikebird8290]

GREAT VIDEO JOE. YOU GAVE HER SOME ABUSE. AMAZING SERVO. CAN'T GO WRONG WITH A REEF'S SIR

[@zura3743]

Very helpful with servo upgrade👍 having 18T 60kg servo, there is no saver from Arrma for that, so I was thinking about solution and what you did will definitely work on my project. Thank you so much for being professional in all details👍

[@Addicted_2RC]

Another beastly servo run and test!!! Very impressed so far. 👊👊👍👍

[@craiggreenhalgh1082]

Looks like you been taking tips off the motocross guys with your air control & whips 👏👏👍

[@ExocagedRC]

LOL Its driving in the air

[@mikeboncheck5555]

Exo....you are an excellent driver ...Yeah

[@ExocagedRC]

thanks

The one handed Bandit !!!

[@theirishaxe9405]

I never understood why 1/5 aarma mounts the servo saver to servo with a cheap plastic insert so jank. I sold my outcast 8s like a week after I got it. Something broke every five minutes. I'm used to my xmaxx's . Great video man I love these I run a triple 5 on 8v on my summit so strong I love it!

[@Bro_wdf_you_doing]

I feel the same way about 08s

[@Ter1000zx10r]

Loved the slow motion jump and all the others for that matter.

[@grayghost5973]

I would love to see about a dozen trucks like this in a demolition derby. Last one that can move wins. I would even watch it on pay per view. Trucks crashing into each other. Some with their batteries going up in flames. Could even make it into a show similar to Battle Bots, with just trucks.

[@517rctrailcrawling]

Great video bro! The beast is a fitting name for that servo🤣🤙💯💯💯✅

[@joshchatwin8569]

That’s awesome I want to do this to mine the saver sucks man was thinking bout upgrading it

[@RuisRcAdventures]

Great footage Joe, that servo held up really well considering its got no servo saver.

[@ExocagedRC]

Yeah I was a bit worried about that one being such an expensive servo

[@RuisRcAdventures]

@@ExocagedRC yeah i could tell on your voice but it took it really well dude. Awesome!

[@3SonsRC]

That back yard😳😳😳 why would you bash any place else....rc paradise 😎👍 Your a madman, no saver on that 💵 Servo😲

[@ExocagedRC]

Yeah it was risky. I ran it again yesterday for a battery test and broke the link end coming off the servo. Servo is good.

[@3SonsRC]

@@ExocagedRC wow that's some good gears then if the link breaks before the gears and there is NO saver😎😎 Too bad this beast is WAY out of my price range. I'm always looking for the 40-120 servo that is a bargain and reliable. Wondering how this 9imod 45kg servo is gonna fair for me, it was $30😳😲 so if it's 80% up to specs will be great. Worth a test on your servo testor?? ... The video should make back that money eventually I have this 70kg 1/5th scale STI or somthing off Bangood I haven't put in yet for my Outcast. To be fair my Outcast has been fine on stock servo Bec 8.4💪... And I am Rough on my rigs, you know if you seen my videos 🤣🤣😳 Rock on brother

[@3SonsRC]

@@ExocagedRC Maybe try cutting the bottom of the box to drop that servo lower to make up for it being taller, that way saver and servo axel can fit proper.... Protect that beast.... It will eventually die from impact no matter how tough, without a saver. But with one it might last FOREVER

[@grayghost5973]

@@3SonsRC That would be cutting into the waterproof receiver box. Not a good option.

[@rcpete7055]

SO YEAH 👍😂😂🤣 Another Good One 💪💯

[@JohnSmith-lk8me]

Ahhhh the pain. I wanted to put this servo in my karton... I wanted to mate it with my 4pm I believe this servo was SR compatible....the pain continues I recently purchased the AGFRC A280BVSW 3/4S I believe this servo was compatible as well...unfortunately I had the same problem as you, the mounts on the servo sat higher than the mounts on the 1/5 servo mount supplied with the 1/5 exb....no room for the servo saver...the hunt continues. This is getting aggravating.

[@ExocagedRC]

I have a newer video showing the use of the Hotracing servo saver. That works.

[@SpicyBurger]

Nice man!

[@GreatLakesRC]

That was a great run! You have got to get the EXB front bumper and put it on your K8S, they take some much abuse compared to hitting the tires first every time. Also, HR has come out with a servo saver design that is a bit more traditional, might be worth checking out.

[@clairecooper3848]

That’s a whopper of a servo and looks like it was happy with no servo saver …. time will tell 👍👌👍

[@ExocagedRC]

Yeah how long will it last is the question

[@trevorchan917]

GREAT VIDEO JOE, DO YOU HAVE A VIDEO TO SHOW HOW THE BEAST 1000 SERVO CAN WORK AND FIT ON THE X-MAXX??

[@9kade]

Thanks for the video and your time .. please from where I can get like your wheel or more options to my kraton 8s !

[@jcallesano]

So awesome. Are the exb front arms different than the blx? Mine broke already...

[@Z17xMachine]

Gnarly!

[@terryporch5332]

Do you have a video on how to set the end points

[@lifeofcurry86]

Sounds like u have a spool/diff locker.... it's it in the center & or the rear? I'm new to your channel so I don't know if uv already covered that in another video

[@ExocagedRC]

no spool or locker, just ear plugs in the center diff.

[@Miguel.herrera.71]

Great video brother. Do you see yourself going back to the stock setup? Using the servo saver.

[@ExocagedRC]

Stock servo no but I do want to figure out a way to get a saver on it somehow.

[@tjpighin]

How did this end up holding up? Did it ever fail?

[@carsonjulian3892]

How did you power this beastly servo, would I be happy with it just on my max5 stock bec turned to 7.4?

[@rckids6557]

💯👍

[@joshchatwin8569]

I need them steering upgrades wow just wow

[@DMOpps-666]

Did you use the larger receiver box bud ?

[@ExocagedRC]

Yeah I got the one that comes with the EXB I think.

[@mrstanton81]

That escalated quickly...

[@grayghost5973]

My Hot Racing servo saver arrived. There are 2 issues with it. The center hole for the screw is too small. I had to drill out the hole to 9/64". The 3.5mm X 8mm screw supplied by Reefs RC is too short. Finding the right screw is like looking for a needle in a hay stack. The 3.5mm screw is one of the oddest sizes ever. However, I did manage to find the screw that's needed at McMaster-Carr. It's an Allen cap screw with a 3.5mm thread that's 16mm long. Search for 91292A352 at McMaster-Carr and happy bashing.

[@ExocagedRC]

Awesome info. Yeah the 3.5mm is odd. I’ve got the saver here now. Need to make it work

[@pfunk72]

Have u ever had the problem where your wheels don't turn left or right but there's nothing wrong with the servo if so how did u fix it

[@jdsrcs8061]

Dang that is a monster!!!! Any bigger it could be used as a power steering box in a full size!!!! What are you going to install the 2000 into?🤘🤘🤘

[@keaginm2791]

It's in his dblx e 2.0

[@joshcross5379]

Woah that’s wicked I’m so sick of buying junk xmaxx 2085x servos I would love to have that’s setup

[@ExocagedRC]

yeah but these are way way too big for an xmaxx.

[@Bro_wdf_you_doing]

Get the savox 2290

[@Urfavgirl_Avani]

Hey Joe just wondering how's this working out for u now is it still running good I want to do the same servo

[@ExocagedRC]

did fine but I used that servo in another vehicle so I could put a saver back on this truck

[@Urfavgirl_Avani]

So how many runs did u use it like this I'm gonna run this servo in a outcast 8s how would you suggest to set it up. Also is there a servo that's good quality but cheaper in price that you would recommend?? I love reefs but in canada this thing is almost $500 lol bit of change

[@joshchatwin8569]

What servo horn is that and how meny teeth

[@BNIRc]

What servo would you recommend for your Typhon build , I have run upgraded spektrum servos and have been great never had a reefs, and few of those crashes look like you ment too big balls brother 🤣

[@ExocagedRC]

RAW500 would be it

[@mikep.9338]

First I've ever seen a dog bone bend

[@ExocagedRC]

Oh man we bend them every time out, all 4 are bent and been hammered out.

[@jhawk1985]

Wats up Joe

[@anthonymiller7184]

How did you get the HR servo savor on its way too tight

[@RobertCarrizal]

why's was won't fit for my xmaxx???

[@chrispalusak7725]

Do i need vitavon axles for for a vitavon steel spool.

[@ExocagedRC]

nope

[@meanf1502]

What is the best way to set end points on a stock kraton 8s

[@ExocagedRC]

with the motor disconnected lol

[@John_D2]

Will the Vitavon Kraton 8s servo saver work ?

[@ExocagedRC]

if the servo would sit back like the stock one, yeah it can be made to work, I've ordered the Hot Racing saver as I'm hoping that design will fit in there

[@grayghost5973]

@@ExocagedRC If the Hot Racing servo saver works post it up please. My Beast 2000 arrived yesterday. It probably doesn't need it. I placed 3 washers between the mount and the servo.

[@jusswild]

Do you think the 1000 will go in the Xmax ??

[@ExocagedRC]

Nope

[@jusswild]

😞😞😞to big even if I cut some away from the Chassis what 1/5 servo could I use I need help

[@runngunrc1991]

@@jusswild I believe they have 3-D servo mounts on EBay . You might have to trim for that servo an it’s gonna install on of the RX box. Hope this helps.

[@jamesbacon5978]

I've been I've been running my exb without a saver the whole time it's a lot better

[@ExocagedRC]

really? Anything break?

[@jamesbacon5978]

No no breakage but I don't really bash it

[@jamesbacon5978]

It's really nice it's really fast just like you're running a 10 scale race race truck

Put it in a Xmaxx

It won’t fit without a LOT of cutting.

Hate to burst your bubble but those two reefs servos are just rip off of AGF RC Servo you're just paying $100+ extra for it to say Reefs 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@larryburns777]

Not seeing the appeal in the car slow and clunky.. I got a 16 scale brushless from laegendary it's so awesome... much better than this car...

Until you put the power down you don’t know feeling. You should run one might change your mind.
