Team Corally Kagama 1/8 Basher RC Truggy Released! | R.I.P. Arrma Kraton??

[@MrSteveESQ]

Love these news flash type of vids, good job bud.

[@DoRC]

Yeah they're a lot of fun to make! Definitely a welcome change from the 10 to 15 hours of total time it takes to make a standard video.

[@troymonroe9656]

My xlr has 25 packs through it. I finally busted a shock stand off screw...on my ankle. Its a beast.

[@DoRC]

Yeah the shock standoffs are one of the biggest weak points on it. You can get Arrma M2C standoffs and with very mild modifications make them fit. I have a how to in my video on my XTR.

[@troymonroe9656]

@@DoRC I modified some Ti ones from Ramjam racing. They run a bigger screw, just had to drill out the center hole on the shock covers slightly and shorten the standoff a smidge. Probably simular to what you did.

[@DoRC]

@troymonroe9656 Yeah that's pretty similar.

[@turionb1408]

im deciding between a muraco xp 6s for 400 swiss francs or a team magic e5 hx 4s bl for 400 swiss franks. for bashing and offroad. what would you take? 🙏🙏

[@DoRC]

I don't have any experience with the team magic. I would pass on the Muraco though because even the most up-to-date version of it really doesn't compare to the modern TC cars like the Kagama.

[@turionb1408]

​@@DoRCallright thanks so much. Really appreciate your opinion✌🏻

[@DoRC]

@@turionb1408 You're welcome Thanks for watching :-)

[@Ayrton_Groesbeck]

US price on the roller is $419.99 which I think is pretty good

[@DoRC]

It's not bad though I will say the RTR prices more than a Kraton which isn't super thrilling.

[@RCPropaganda]

why these weird names for them though.

[@DoRC]

All the normal names are taken :-)

[@RCPropaganda]

lol@@DoRC

[@DoRC]

@@RCPropaganda Thanks for watching!

[@rogueFactor]

i want to believe.

[@DoRC]

I do believe. The asuga is an awesome vehicle. I don't see any reason why this one won't be just as good if not better

[@rogueFactor]

@@DoRC i have the Jambo, was collecting dust for two years because parts so i just decided to start transplanting ARRMA parts onto it. 😏

[@DoRC]

@@rogueFactor I've got a few parts like that on mine as well :)

[@BeautyBeastRC]

NGL I don't believe lol. I'm still scared to bash my asuga.

[@DoRC]

@@BeautyBeastRC have you seen my Asuga bashing videos? It's pretty stout

[@S14michaelw]

Thats just a punisher with the parts that should of built it with 😂 the centre brace is biggest improvment, ive bent 2 rear centre shafts without going crazy on it!

[@DoRC]

I think you could say that for any next generation vehicle. They usually address the shortcomings of the previous generation which is a good thing.

[@rctd3260]

they were a bit lazy on the body shape, but design looks great.

[@DoRC]

I think it probably is more about ease of construction than laziness. These are vacuum formed and sharp corners are hard to do on a vacuum forming machine. That being said other manufacturers do it so....

[@rctd3260]

@@DoRC makes sense

[@Nixxtrr]

Looks abit trugly

[@DoRC]

Lol. Thanks for watching!

[@Nixxtrr]

Components do look quality though

[@DoRC]

@Nixxtrr Yes this has most of the same components as the Asuga and that's a very good truck

[@rufusyoungblood9274]

💭🤔my first 6s was the Kagama my second was the Kraton my third was the big rock my fourth was the Mojave my fifth is the outcast and now I’m going to pick up the fireteam all thanks to team corally 🤨 now ask me why.

[@DoRC]

I think you already answered the question :-)

[@redblue40rc33]

Honey comb wheels are brittle....not gonna hold up, guaranteed

[@DoRC]

I've had them on multiple models and have never broken one.

[@ShadeTree_RC]

so much for my shoutout 🙄😆

[@DoRC]

Did I promise a shout out? I don't remember doing that. Sorry if I did and didn't do it. What was it for?

[@JoeyW979]

Looks good but is a lil bit ugly 😅

[@rogueFactor]

🎶"if you wanta be happy for the rest of your life." 🎶 🤣

[@DoRC]

That's exactly how I feel about it. I thought they were moving away from the bulbous look but doesn't seem that way

[@rogueFactor]

@@DoRC this is what an RC would look like if VORTEKS & JAMBO had a baby. spittin' image, cmaaahn.

[@Abyssdiver]

So does it look good or look ugly.... Your comment makes no sense!

[@DoRC]

@@Abyssdiver I'm guessing he meant it looks like a sweet truck but is ugly. I agree with that. I'm going to be buying one because I think it's going to be a Great basher but at least in the pictures I don't think it looks that awesome.

[@christianhvidt6823]

Arrma is way better than this team corally thing..at least for the long run 😮

[@DoRC]

Do you have a lot of experience with the most recent team Corally cars?

[@christianhvidt6823]

@@DoRC yes i think i have..i got the radix 4s and now asuga 6s and they tend to brake a lot as far as durability goes..compared to typhon 6s never had any issues what so ever!!

[@DoRC]

@@christianhvidt6823 Yeah the radix is based on the first generation of vehicles they made and definitely had some weak points. I'm surprised that you're breaking the Asuga a lot. It does have a couple of weak points such as shock mounts but those are pretty easily remedied by upgrading to unfortunately Arrma parts. In general though I find that the TC vehicles are pretty durable and certainly have better aluminum than Arrm. That being said the Typhon is one of the most durable out of the box RTR vehicles ever made so it's definitely a high bar to compare to

[@christianhvidt6823]

@@DoRC its specially the front CVD driveshafts i had a problem with on the asuga..tend to brake now and then..i thought they had fixed this issue by making them a tad bigger🙁any advice?

[@DoRC]

@@christianhvidt6823 not sure. I haven't experienced that myself

[@jessicajay2484]

Kraton killer???? Ahahahah best joke ever. Clearly you don't know what you are talki.g about.

[@DoRC]

Thank you for watching and I appreciate your feedback :-)

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

Lol you love your kraton that much huh , I have arrma parts for life thanks to the kraton , been through a handful , have one new still on the shelf and one that’s TYPHON straight cut diffs arms dog bones and kraton axles , truggy buggy or Mojave wheels 🛞, why ? Because no matter how good you are with tuning diffs there wear or break , that said still a favorite rc just it really can be a money pit , my first one I constantly changed pinion and ring gear till I realized you have to change the diff cases after a while , aluminum of course is better but just means last longer .

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

The team c. Electronics are really good , even though it was my first esc to go up in smoke lol , I probably pushed it too much , I ran it with 26 46 gearing with lots of cooling , weird thing is I ruined the pinion so I threw a standard 18t or something and didn’t even get warm before it went up . Now everyone knows how good they are and the price we might as well just go with hobbywing

[@DoRC]

@@RcPlayer-tt2vw TC electronics are better, TC aluminum is better, TC bodies are more durable, in general the TC differentials are very good etc. TC cars also handle better out of the box. The main places that arrma excel Are the shocks and shock mounts aftermarket support and parts support. After bashing the Asuga I absolutely think this car could be superior to the kraton

[@jessicajay2484]

@@RcPlayer-tt2vw i dont have kraton, i just know that corrally sucks. Thats it. Corally very bad cars... so i wonder how it can beat any other rc, including kraton.

[@dbirds21]

I think the kagama doesnt land very good. very prone to bounce and flip over on stock setup. I need to find a way to maake it stick better on landings. very poor performance iun that aspect.

[@DoRC]

Maybe needs some shock tuning. Not really my area of expertise unfortunately

[@rufusyoungblood9274]

💭🤔 I had the kagama the longest and drove it the least it has the least amount of miles on it and something’s always breaking on it. I have yet to get through a full battery pack compared to my Arrma’s the one I drove the lease the amount of times have a total of 19 battery packs through it and still have not broken anything but every time I get the kagama fixed something break in less than 20 minutes At first, it was the ESC blowing up a big white cloud or smoke catching fire then it was the servo had to be replaced then the servo arm broke now that has a leaky center diff which sounds like the gears are grinding. I emailed the company and it took them more than 30 days to respond, and they was not willing to honor the warranty at all again will I ever spend a penny with Team Corally but I do think them for helping me make my mind up with my 6s lineup. 😆😂😂 Arrma tough 🤛🏽🦾💪🏽, 🫡💯🔥
