Team Corally Kagama4 - No weaknesses - Best RC monster truck monster truggy?

[@gonzo221]

I love the way the my Kagama 4 run. However the CVD's are problematic and the Ackerman bars still bend way too easily. And they finally released offset rear dogbones for smoother operation. Hopefully team corally can fix these issues on their next 4s release.

[@jordan42568]

Should have bought arrma. Corally is pure junk

[@RazorRC]

Ackermann bar still a little bendy, but mine hasn't broken yet. No issues with the CVA's yet, did you make sure your droop screws were set correctly?

[@JoeGerdingRc]

The rear shocks off of a TC Dementor work very well on a Maxx! Takes four but makes the Maxx an actual handling type rc instead of just all out tough basher! Great vid!💯🔥💥🚀

[@RcPlayer-tt2vw]

Ya I try I have hit Jenny’s up for diffs , where I get hex for the maxx I strip wheels when I try match Arrma builds , I have the LMT wheels on it those wheels lasted really long time 😮

[@JoeGerdingRc]

@RcPlayer-tt2vw I've found some rc companies tires are made very well! Traxxas makes great paddle tires! I have the 2.8's 3.8's and owned the longest ones for a Xmaxx or Xrt. Great tires!

[@Xjeepguy]

Corally has seriously stepped up their game, starting with the Asuga on. I have the Kagama 6s, and i like it so much i sold my Kraton 6s EXB V2. The Kagama just handles better, and so far, ive only broken a wing mount. Great review as always.

[@RazorRC]

Thanks, the Kagama6 is a MONSTER!

[@K5_RC]

If Team Corally makes a Short Course Truck or Desert Truck on this platform.. I may switch teams here. But for now, with my taste being fully SCT, they don't make anything I want.. but man.. this is tempting. Very impressive

[@RazorRC]

That would be cool!

[@toolbaggers]

Even though changing pinions is a pain, this setup means it is very difficult for the mesh to slip. As a basher for the gear mesh, you just set it and forget it so it has that as a positive feature.

[@RazorRC]

True, I just wish it was a little easier to get to.

[@JmanZ71]

I love your channel man definitely my favorites of all KZbinrs! Everytime I see a new vid drop must stop all the things to check it out. Keep up the great great work. #RChero lol

[@RazorRC]

Much appreciated! Very kind of you to say!

[@beyondRC]

This truck got hate on my channel for 2 reasons most think its slow and ugly. Styling wise i think it looks cool but looks are a matter or opinion. The speed complaints are straight up pathetic if you ask me and demonstrates a severe lack of understanding with a lot of RC users these days. I am doing a follow up vid soon and will be addressing some of the complaints. It blows my mind how so many users dont understand the basics of getting more speed out of these bigger/more advanced rigs compared to the cheap RTR's. A simple pinion gear change to 15t (13t stock) should easily get 40mph+ out of this on 4s which is perfectly acceptable for a 4s tank like this. I had someone comparing it to basic/cheap Chinese cars which i love btw and they have their place but this is an exceptional hobby grade machine with 1/8 components and very good build quality and not even close quality wise to an MJX (someone said a ROG1 is faster lol). Why do so many judge and RC car these days on speed alone.. What about all the other important factors?.. Crazy man. Great vid.

[@RazorRC]

@@beyondRC spot on! Looks are personal which is why I rarely comment on them. I do think they should have included 15T oob, but as you said it’s a simple upgrade. Love the “what it’s like to be a RC YTer” series btw, I’m thinking of doing a reaction type video to yours if you don’t mind. Not so much about what you said, but my thoughts on the same topics. But if you prefer me not to, that’s fine, it’s just a thought I had.

[@beyondRC]

@ no worries at all. That would be awesome to see and hear your views on the same/similar topics as I don’t think it’s spoken about enough. Feel free man 👍👍

[@richardtuin4659]

Sorry to intervere but @beyondrc i saw ur vid about it and u was a bit hard on the kraton just a bit he 😂 and all ppl have diff opions and it will always be like that but just out of the box and yes yes i know a pinion does it but still just right out of the box the kraton kills it and looks well also personal i just cant see myself buying the kagama but ofc thats all personal but who am i to say something my fav rc is the oldskool traxxas 2wd stampede just only for the fact thats its been around since 1994 but look how many haters traxxas has .. ah well .. i just wanted to say Ricky u made a point on the kraton in that vid and ppl can respond .. i must say not in a hate style but just the opinion 🙂

[@beyondRC]

@@richardtuin4659 it seems that I triggered a lot of people when I said I didn’t like the kraton. I was referring to the old kraton 6s. I am yet to try the new one so maybe my mind would change but even then. I still think the kagama 6s is the better truck. We are all entitled to our opinions and as mentioned above I fully respect someone else’s opinion but only if they have tried both trucks and can directly compare the two after trying them both. There are many that will defend the kraton who have never even driven a kagama whose opinion means minimal in my opinion. You can’t say something is better or worse without trying it yourself 😂 I could say the airbus a380 is better than a 747 but my opinion there would mean nothing as I’ve not flown either of them which means there is no value to my opinion. If an airline pilot tells me he’s flown both and prefers the 747 his opinion would hold value as he’s flown both. If you get my terrible example 😂

[@richardtuin4659]

@beyondRC huh .. well now we are going from rc's to airplanes and the last one i was in was a lil Cessna on the old wooden backseat and we had a lot of fun huh how to say as im Dutch say 90 degrees flying with a pilot in training but anywell bit off topic i understand what ur saying and i dont have the kagama now how to say this .. ur neighborhood on the left u think hmm ok.. well .. u know the one on the right u think nooo fkn way .. for the one its the one on the left for the other the one on the right every one has a personal opinion.. my personal opinion on ur vid is just plain simple u make a vid about the kagama u give ur opion and show the watchers what u think about it .. but i than dont see a reason to talk down on the neighboor that u didnt like 😉

[@Chicco181]

Congratulations for your videos, I've seen a lot of them and I like them all. For Christmas I bought myself a Rustler Ultimate. I'd like to know what you think about it beyond the technical specifications because I'm having a lot of fun with both the Rustler and the Mjx hyper go 14210 I love when they do wheelies.

[@gaffle-411]

Very thorough breakdown!

[@kenkim9112]

Hello. Thank you for the good video. I don't go to track. Sometime it's far, but it will go. I'm doing it in the park or on the grass. Sometimes on the asphalt or tennis court. Which buggy will fit well? for Carpet or dirt. If Team b7 what tires Jconcepts dirt Trac mini or Smoothie 2 thank you 😅❤

[@oscarsonne9168]

Did you experience the tires rubbing against the body with the prolines on?

[@RazorRC]

@@oscarsonne9168 yes, a tiny bit if you’re doing a lot of backflips. My badlands are pretty old though and stretched out.

[@gillian9178]

How would you rate the Valkyrie compared to the Kagama 4s ?

[@careynorris9961]

Valkyrie is a great rc and WAY faster than the excellent Kagama 4. I am a Corally guy and I love my Valkyrie even with its quirks.

[@RazorRC]

Doesn't handle as well, not as durable, but it's darn cheap!

[@supertjeduc]

I am from the netherlands and over here part support is best in class , all parts within a few days at home , Think they ship worldwide for 9,25

[@jordan42568]

Still not worth it for a second rate RC

[@RazorRC]

Nice, yeah for sure more local brands are always going to be easier to get parts!

[@cristovalmontoya5222]

Mine is on the way I hope I do t have those metal band problems I might put a dab of black flexible ca glue or some loctite retaining compound. But it seams maybe the adjusting droop screws helped can you explain on what you did and were the droop adjustment is. ?

[@RazorRC]

Little grub screws towards the inside of the arms limit how far the arms can extend down. If it's too far, then you get too steep of an angle and can rub/hit the driveshafts against the outdrives.

[@HOBBES152]

Team Corally solid bran❤d

[@Fortes_RC_Adv]

Good looking machine but on the performance I have my doubts 😉💪

[@careynorris9961]

I like this truggy but by the time I upgrade the esc and throw some Proline badlands on I could've just got a Kagama 6s. I still want one though. I have a problem😂😂

[@Hungrybird474]

Edwin lamonaco s channel shows some cool things that work for the kagama 4s like Ackerman and arms . Typhon arms fit .

[@backlashD]

I'm having annoying weakness in my Corally cars where the front Stub Axles keep breaking where the pin in the CVD is supported. And the worst part is Corally doesn't sell their driveshafts in parts like every other brand. Only the whole thing. It's really frustrating because I love everything else about the cars

[@kennysilvers-z4x]

I'll assume you're talking about RTR's because I've never heard of any of the electronics mentioned. Most people call Hobbywing, Tekin, R1, or even Castle, the perfect esc/motor combo.

[@RazorRC]

Yes

[@Myexoticexperience]

can you compare it to the Arrma Kraton 4s v2.5 please. because I'm leaning towards more on getting the K4 v2.5 though I have the Syncro4 and its a beast!

[@RazorRC]

I've got a 4S shootout. It doesn't have this truck, but can help you get ideas on the pros and cons of each.

[@Myexoticexperience]

@RazorRC yeah I've watched your video on the K4 V2 it's a great video. Just thinking about the V2.5 over all looks and OOB performance looks like it's better than kagama4 but I can't deny the build quality and just simply changing the stock pinion to 15T will make a big difference for the kagama4 looks like the donwside of the K4 V2.5 is the plastic chassis kagama will outlast the K4 any day.

[@RockyMtBashers]

Lfg sick bro 🤘🏻

[@jacobbuckles6741]

Wow I’m early to this one 😮

[@boduke9428]

I can't decide if i want this or the 6s version for my first TC rig.

[@matthewhendrickson4209]

The 6s is an animal…get the 6s, Asuga and Kagama 4s Can’t go wrong with all three

[@619roca]

Spend the extra $200 and get the 6s. Just got mine last week and it's mental, I would suggest going 4S first and try getting some practice before you move up to 6S. If you want to go a little further, I would learn how to program the ESC to level the punch down maybe by 1. Trust me this thing is insane.

[@jordan42568]

AVOID TEAM CORALLY! Part support sucks, and their trucks are junk. Save yourself the headache and just get an arrma

[@RazorRC]

depends on how fast and big you want your RC

[@boduke9428]

​@@619roca​@619roca that was my plan until the 4s came out. It's not my first truck, I've got a couple dozen or so. Just my first Team Corally. Most are 6s and 8-12s. I say I like large scale better but I've noticed I'll grab a smaller 3s or 4s truck if in just going out in the yard to bash around by myself. Thanks for the advice, I do think the 6s is cooler, I just hope I don't fall in love like I did when I bought my first Arrma (Fireteam) and ends up with a dozen Team Corally trucks and buggies piled up everywhere. Sounds like that's a legit possibility if its as good as you say.

[@enricomiceli5517]

Tough compact oversized basher,for me looks a lot like a stunt truck, nothing about speed or aerodinamic but more abour power and reliability. It is aimed to a different public than the track entusiast or the speedrunner, this thing belong to a skatepark

[@RazorRC]

I don't do skateparks, but it's excellent on big dirt jumps.

[@DadandmadzRC]

I have the Kronos XTR, possibly looking at the syncro 4 or this. The buggy just peaks my interest. hmm..

[@thunderbomb515]

Just my two cents. I just bought the Syncro4 and a Typhon 223. The Syncro is one of the best built buggies I ever owned. Solid as a rock and handling is fantastic. The Typhon is good. A bit faster on 3s, but if I was buying another vehicle soon, I will by Team Corally 100%. No hesitations.

[@DadandmadzRC]

@@thunderbomb515 that's great info mate! thanks for the 2 cents! Cheers

[@ElStriker777]

🔥👍🤘🏻

[@tacoman4005]

How can a 4s be this slow? I would rather get the Redcat Valkyrie tough as a maxx and faater

[@beyondRC]

its geared low out the box. I really cannot understand how so many do not understand how gearing works and how easy a $5 pinion can increase speed. Blows my mind...

[@RazorRC]

the Valkyrie is definitely not as tough as a Maxx...

[@bassstarlet5729]

First :P

[@philpowell1162]

The only RC they hav made that's decent is Kagama 6S. I wouldn't bother with Kagama 4. To slow out of the box. I won't to like Team corelly but my Asuga breaks front upper and lower arms all the time. I seriously question the plastic on Team corelly !?I used to be a Team corelly fan boy. Not any more . Kagama 4 is way OVERRATED !!!

[@RazorRC]

I believe the Asuga has the same arms as the Kagama6, so this post doesn't make any sense.

[@philpowell1162]

@RazorRC No there not the same. Kagama upper and lower arms are much beefer on the Kagama 6S. My friend has a Kagama and I hav the Asuga. He never breaks his arms but I am continually splitting my upper and arms and lower arms on my Asuga. Team corelly has been saying there going to fix this problem but all the arms I hav bought hav done the same thing ! I should of bought the Arrma Typhon 6S instead. Not impressed with Team corelly !

[@switzou]

​@@philpowell1162 It's amazing, when you look corally american's vidéo, it's always the best. Here in France corally is considered as a not really good brand, all you mention problème !

[@philpowell1162]

@switzou None of my Arrma RC break arrms. The only issues I had was my ESC. But it was covered under warranty. None of my MJX break. Traxxx stampped don't break. My Asuga just sits there in the corner of my room. Junk !
