  • Two great 6s releases at the end of 2023 from Arrma we have the extreme bash Kraton and the Monster Truck Big Rock although very similar they drive very different. Which one suits your needs? Or is there a better alternative?

      @mikescallon4288 Před 3 měsíci

      Although I have to say, the BigRock is awesome as well. These two vechiles have been my two favorite rc's that I have ever owned. The toughest part is deciding which one to drive on any given day. I do own the Maxx v2 version as well and that is a great truck in it's own right but if we are talking about the Sledge, that vechile does not light a candle to the BigRock or new Kraton EXB. Worst driving vechile I have ever driven. Given that this new MAXX Slash uses that same 6s ESC/motor combination my thoughts are that it might not drive much better but I guess we will see.

    Tires and shocks make the most difference . Stance , width and length and weight . You already know 👍. Just like cars . I think the kraton is great out of box . I just want another option for the tires . Maybe get them belted ones with the snake name and some 4s backflips and keep the copperheads but there again . One set should be sufficient to cure my RC needs atm . I definitely want to try some belted in parking lot

    I'm interested in the Kraton EXB with all the upgrades, but the Big Rock looked like it was more fun to drive, at least in the area you were running these trucks. I think it would be cool to see you run the Big Rock and Outcast 8S back to back in this park.

      I don't agree. EXB is for bashing and I think they wanted to differentiate between drifting, trailing and light bashing with the Big Rock, and skate park, full send bashing on the Kraton. Not everyone wants wheelies and backflips.

    I did the drywall mesh tape and shoegoo on my exb kraton body before I even drove it. Definitely helps. Do you think that big rock body might possibly fit with a wing removal and minimal mods on kraton?

    • @L2theWcarscoffeelife
      @L2theWcarscoffeelife  Před 4 měsíci

      The big rock can use some tape on the back end around the bumper so far my Kraton body is fine except some rash on tbe roof. You would need to change the front shock tower and add the clipless mount and add a mount to the rear as its a little longer it will probably look weird as the tires wont line probably not hard to do but why? Its a nice body nothing I would really want on an exb basher.

    Thanks so much for this video! These are the precise two truck I’m considering. I have a Arrma Kraton 4sv2. But it wheelies too much and frustrating to drive.
    I’m torn between the Big Rock and Kraton EXB, one day I feel Kraton next day I feel Big Rock. I love the Kraton for its value, upgrades, radio etc, and I love the Big Rock for the driving style and less prone to wheelie. 😁😬

    • @L2theWcarscoffeelife
      @L2theWcarscoffeelife  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Thank you I am glad you liked the video. On your Kraton bump the punch level down. Its set at 6 I would go down 1 at a time until you get the desired effect you want and you can do this without a programmer although it makes life easier. I turned the punch up on the big rock and now it wheelies easily. That's the whole deal with that setting is how hard do you want it to take off you can dial in your rc as you want. I would still get a 6s they are so much fun. 😁

      Hi ..to help you out with your Kraton V2 4s ..what I did to stop the wheeling to much is make your front diff little more thicker in fluids than the rear diff ..I used 125,000 diff fluid for front and 60,000 in rear diff ..works great ..tames the truck down alot and gives more pull

    Both are great rigs. The body on the Big Rock is super clean looking. It's like you need a backup body for it. A new body is a bit expensive but for the quality it's well worth it. The Kraton 6s is an awesome basher as long as you avoid those roots. lol Great demonstration of the performance of both.

    I believe If I was going to buy one I would get the Kraton over the Big Rock. I would get a proline body for it with slides for the roof and hood area. I would also buy some better tires for it as well Mud Tires are a must around here. I agree Power Sliding is very fun. I like smaller jumps with less air time as well. The Mega Jumps that destroys my $700 Arrma is not cool to me. I would rather not have any damage from bashing. The EXB package on the Kraton makes it way more durable and one can get bigger air safely with it. I liked the video and your insights about what is best base on the drivers wants. Enjoyed watching with the morning cup of Joe.
