I think the 4S V2 was designed to be a great contender and a budget. 1 battery vs 2, and is lighter, so gets some pretty good contender action. I think it really comes down to, do you prefer a 3rd diff or Slipper. Most find Slipper easier to maintain in the end.
Love your kid like laughter. Just like me and my brother. We’re 62&67 years old. Both new to RC’s. I love Arrma brand much better than Traxxas. I have a Maxx v2 4S, Ereevo 2.0 6S (crap) an Arrma Outcast 4S and a Kraton 6S. I have several bodies for the outcast and the Kraton both. That’s a big thing with me..
Appreciate you cruising by and sharing! Glad you and your bro are loving it! I tend to lean towards Arrma’s as well. TRAXXAS styling is fantastic, along with other innovative engineering like body mounting and battery trays. However, electronics are subpar to me. Bash on my friend! 🏎🏎🏎🏎🏎👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
I’ve been looking heavily at the 4s Kraton. It’s easier to tote around being lighter. 1 battery. A chassis that will flex not bend. And 80 bucks gets you a second battery.
Grear comparison & review, also factor in on top of the $80 more for the 6s Kraton the 6s lipo with be a fair bit more expensive than the 4s lipo. Plus every extra set of 6s batteries with be even more expensive, both great trucks though.
I have a v3 Kraton 6s and a v1 4s they are both very fun and capable cars. But the 6s. Just puts a bigger smile on my face! Well worth the 80.00 price increases. Note parts are more expensive though! Diffs especially and I seem to blow through more as well! Prob because I run the 4s mostly on 3s it’s plenty fast on that with a 17 pinion lol
Honestly guys grab the 6s kraton it’s not that much more expensive and it’s a lot easier to work on once you open it up and the parts are widely available in stock in most shops and Amazon and cheaper too… at least here in Canada they are. And if you want more speed simply just throw in a larger pinion gear since you got that sliding motor mount. I’d get the 4s kraton or outcast if you already own the 6s version and just wanna see what’s up with the 4s version
I think it's worth mentioning the pitch on the spur and pinion gears is different. The 4s being a 32p or mod.8 might be similar in overall size compared to the 6s being a mod1.
I like the more solid chassis on 6S EXB...However the plastics on 4S keep it light, and very fast. Great performance per dollar experience on 4S. But I like diffs better than slippers any day of the week + steel drivetrain. To me the added cost is worth it on the 6S, especially the EXB Variant. IF you rich, and have the space, I'd go 8S EXB for $300 more...Keep in mind I don't do jumps, or crazy insane stuff...Me and my boys love our baseball fields, safe and open, and FUN.
I just put a 150 amp. Spektrum ESC in the 4s kraton that I have it works literally perfect with the 2400 kV. I mean, it barely gets warm. It don't even get hot and that's full throttle Pulls on 4S. At 52 mph
Run time is really is dependent upon the MAH of the battery you use. Both can get very similar runtimes. 12-15 minutes with 5000-6000 MAH batteries. Appreciate you cruising by! 🏎🏎🏎🤝🏎
From my experience both are very durable, I have bashed the 6s kraton and have only broken the wing mount part. Have not bent the chassis. I have only bashed the 4s kraton once and it held up. So not sure I can definitively answer that. Just being honest sir. Appreciate you cruising by and sharing! 🏎🏎🏎🏎🤝🤝🤝
Id like to see the 4s with 4s lipo and 6s with a solid 6s lipo or even two 3s lipos ...i have a vorteks running single 3s gens ace v3 120c and believe me when i say it rips i really want the 6s kraton purely so that i can throw my 2x 3s 120c gens ace in there running tandem and see what its made of ....the bashing 120c has immense response...2 of those together omg!

I use one 6s battery in my K6. Idk wtf you’re talking about
The Kraton 4S V2 does have a center diff does it not?

They come 13t stock in the 4S. I upgraded to a 20 tooth pinion with an aluminum set gear mesh gearbox
Appreciate you cruising by and sharing! 🤝🤝🤝🏎🏎🤝
Higher tooth, did you get any temp issues or voltage issues?
What about 6S Exb vs 4S? The newest ones.
Nice one mate
Bruno, appreciate you cruising by and sharing the positive thoughts!

Rating is based in rig with speed gear provided. Is that how you are doing it?
Just running stock pinion gear in both rigs in this video.

That 6s is running a 120c smc drag car high performance battery No?
love how you say "i almost took out that curb" we all know the curb would probs be better off after then your rc lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂true. Lol
4s my favourite should be lot more efficient as lighter more efficient motor
Which battery do you use in the Kraton , do you use the optional pinçon gear ?
This was stock pinion, batter was an HRB 6000mah. Amazon purchase.

Thanks !
Great RCs
Hey, appreciate you cruising by and sharing!!

Would the bodies work on each other ? I'm Curious
Stock for stock, no. I am sure you could modify the shock towers and body mounts to make it work but not stock.

They need do a 4s exb model
Did you run the ktaton 6s with the 12 tooth pinion or 15 tooth pinion?
Stock pinion, in this video!
Appreciate you cruising by!
🤝🤝🏎🏎🤝
@@moerc anytime! And thanks for reply. What top speed did you get with the optional speed pinion on the kraton 6s?
Idk if people know this but only the gearing changes the speed
Firstly 6s is 50 percent more voltage than 4s. And you voltage is dropping after each run hence the first runs are the fastest.
which is most durable? both extremely similar, but which is toughest
From my experience both are very durable, I have bashed the 6s kraton and have only broken the wing mount part. Have not bent the chassis. I have only bashed the 4s kraton once and it held up. So not sure I can definitively answer that.
Just being honest sir.

I also have the gens ace charger for it
@josers4153 top g...let us know how you like them when you run them..
On 4s I think u need to change pinion gear to make it reach 55 I believe
4s should be good enough for now
Cannot go wrong with the 4s!

Kraton 6s super
51 mph on a 4s is dammmmm quick
Take a shot every time he says 6s power 😀

V5
4s to 6s is 50% more power ..not 33%...half of 4 is 2. .. 4+2 isss???
11:13 tight and light, that's how I like my women so you can flippem over like a burger 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤝🤝🤝
Be honest you may like your women like a kraton, but really you get em like an xmaxx. Big, heavy , and wide 😆
And hard to flip
For $80 u might as well get the 6s
2mph for $250+ more, and more expensive battery, and heavier to pack around...4S Wins by law of physics LoL
they're roughly the same size, but the 4s is much lighter and probably has a much higher power to weight ratio. motorcycle vs car....
