ARRMA Kraton 6S V4 "First Bash and Upgrade" adapt and overcome...

  • Got off to sort of a rough start...lol!!! Despite being the best RTR money can buy, these wonderful new ARRMA 6s rigs still need some key aftermarket upgrades for harder bashing in my opinion. The new center brace itself did fantastic, but needs aluminum chassis braces to help it stabilize things more. I'm super impressed with the handling straight out of the box regardless. Huge props to ARRMA for all the great updates and attention to detail. Thanks also to Voltage Hobbies, M2C Racing, and my LHS, Fast Track Hobbies in Rocklin, CA.

    Like I always say, better to do the must have upgrades first 🤣🤣🤣. Or be that guy using a hammer and curb 👀. Will say the center brace held up perfectly 👌 as well as the motor mount and center diff. The tires performed wonderfully for brand new (not broken in). Very impressed with the handling box stock👊.

      @BillKisel Před 5 lety +2

      I think that most of us "normal" bashers would not need the upgrades you mention. For guys like you I suspect, from the get go, a stronger/thicker chassis is needed.
      BTW, thumbs up on the video.

    Nice first Blast and Bash! I've seen other channels that would have hid breakages like that, but not on this channel. Hats off to you for a super Blast on an Awesome looking new rig and for showing the consumers just what needs to be done to the rigs with no "sugar coating" in order to save them some hard earned dollars.

    These trucks are so tough😂 I had a slash 4x4 and couldn’t keep it from breaking. Every single run it broke. I’m still gun shy when taking out an Rc because of that car. I’ve got a kraton V3 with a ton of upgrades (JBIRC chassis) but have babied it because I’m still scared to break it like the other. I’m slowly gaining back confidence with every video you post!

    Nice bash, great to see you show the good with the bad in terms of breakages. It helps no one when channels just show a car that's 100% perfect but in reality has had a breakage. Love the zip tie mod I've a few cars I'll be doing that on tomorrow!

      Thanks so much Richie😊. You're absolutely right my friend 👊. Hopefully most people will realize there's a reason to do basic core upgrades 💪. As much as I enjoy wrenching and fixing, it's better to get them handled upfront. The zip tie mod is a keeper for sure. 🍻🤘🤘😎💪👊👊

    Awesome video Rich! Just simply awesome jumps and rips. I sure like my v3 Kraton, but I think the M2C chassis, Voltage braces and the front upper hinge pin brace, and skid plates is a must upgrade along with adding shims to tighten up the front and rear diff pinion mesh. Still cheaper than getting a racing 1/8 scale truggy kit and turning it into a basher.

Too bad chassis Bent on first bash. I'm so grateful for the M2C Goliath chassis truly addresses the chassis bend/flex to the core. Which is a huge deal to me. What you think about the tires bro? Better than V3? I'm excited about the easy access center diff and sliding motor mount. Bash on brother.

    Your an awesome driver. Don’t think arrma could do any better. Landing hard on the roof is always going to bend or break stuff including rip battery straps and loosens bolts in the braces, separates the driveline. I’ve learned to smash into the nose as the best case scenario for crashes. If you land on the tail 🙏, pray that you don’t break the wing mount bolts into the shock tower like me. 🤪. I don’t mind breaking the plastic wing mounts. But without them the entire rear end is in jeopardy. Bash on brother , always watching your vids.
