    Hey there Guys , I picked up a Trx4 sport 2 months ago, because of your Recommendations. And upgraded it after watching your videos. Servo, Esc, Tires , Motor, Etc. And 3 weeks ago I picked up Arrma Kraton 4s. I love it. Very fast. Its kind of funny that you got your first Arrma also. Thanks. RC Review.

    I have been pretty impressed myself. I put a better servo in mine and on loose dirt/gravel I can hold the throttle wide open and give max steering input one way and it will just turn on a dime in a pretty insanely tight turning radius. I just have a little firma 85 setup on it currently though. I'm sure it would be a little more dicey with an actual blx setup. I plan on putting my system from my big rock into it soon.

I used to buy lots of Traxxas models in the past but now they support professional driver's which is fine for them. But I'm not paying their salaries so I'm building my collection with Arrma now....... Thanks so much for the informative video's ....... :)

    You are very correct about the value aspect about Arrma, and the Senton in particular. Because the Slash is so entrenched in the community, and is generally considered the 'go-to' (at least starter) SC truck, Arrma went to great lengths to top Traxxas in most areas, whilst keeping the price lower.

    Changing the wheels on the Senton gives you a totally different experience. If you go with big tires, make sure to get the 13t pinion while you are at it. You may also find that replacing the A arms with RPM arms is strongly recommended if you continue to bash big, mine have been amazing. The senton was my first then I got a Granite 3s BLX, then a couple of crawlers, thanks to you, and I finally got the Kraton 6s, and boy am I in love with that thing. Hard to find these days, but it is an incredible vehicle!

    Thank you for a trustworthy review. I am new to this and i try to educate myself. Like with everything today there is so much fluff out there about everything. You seem to be honest and reasonable about it all. I am in to it with 4 rc cars, from the WLP little truck (so much fun) up to 2 buggies (Wltoys and HSP) and finally my 1/10 HSP SCT. Well all my cars very in quality, even the same brand. The most expensive sct is junk, so much play in all the suspension parts, sad (HSP). Yes seems like better steering servos, some shock oil and diff maintenance is part of the game, but if you have junk chassis you have junk. The new version on this Senton now is the goal, in Indonesia it is 2x or more of what I paid for my cars but I kind of have junk. They run like stink, but the whole hobby grade experience is out the door. I was careful buying my cars, I watched other reviews....well they were just fluff. I suggest you guys buy the real things, again thx for good reviews. And yes 15 gear pinion is on my wish list. Running my Chinese junk on 2s brushless is fast enough for this guy.

    Armma is made in China too! Basically all RC stuff is made in China. We have had issues buying brand new arrmas because of what we assume is lack of quality control. It certainly is better quality then the cheap stuff on bang good but not by a huge margin. I recently bought a 30 dollar Chinese brushless 3660 Goolrc motor for my 3s granite and figured it would suck for that price, but I was blown away with how fast and powerful it is. I’m not buying name brand motors anymore, that’s for sure. Some parts and cars are ok to get cheap, some aren’t, it’s a learning experience.

    Brushless motors are typically 20% faster than brushed, but require a brushless ESC. Some Brushless use a sensor to determine which of the 4 poles to run current through. Brushed motors wear down because the brushes scrape against the armature, and the armature contact points degrade over time. The advantage to brushed motors, is they tend to be cheaper.

Use the battery straps to hold the wires in place, mine used to come unplugged before i did that. There us a place in the front of the ESC that you're supposed to clip the wires in, but they dont stay. If you want to go nuts with Arrma, get the Kraton 8S. 😉

    Would be cool to see this channel get into bashing. I've always been impressed with how arrma plastic drive shafts hold up I've beet the hell out of the granite 3s the kraton and outcast 4s and never broke a drive shaft. I also run a fully built notorious 6s one of my favorite trucks. Also they make good bodies. The stock spektrum radio is junk though

    I don't have experience with the Senton, but no matter what I did with my Traxxas, inlcuding an expensive LCG carbon fiber chasis swap, it wouldn't keep up with a stock Losi SCT Ten. Would love to see how the Ten 3.0 stacks up against the Senton. As far as the next Arma vehicle, maybe one of the Typhon's? There are tons of reviews of the Kratons and Infractions, but I haven't seen a bunch on the Typhon. I would say the Mojave, but outward it is close to the Senton.

    I have a 4s Kraton and a 6s typhon. The body clips just seem to be tuff. Give it a month and all the clips will pull out the rubber. Upgrading is easy if you can find parts. I found with the 4s Kraton that theres not really many aftermarket parts that fit right. The stock parts are also hard to find at times. Luckily everything but the a arms are super durable and rpm has you covered on the cheap. I think parts parts are hard to find because everything but diffs and axels are really cheap compared to anything faster than 4s. Most gears and plastics are less than $10 usd.

    How did you keep debris out of the steering bell crank ? I filled every hole with foam. and over the top of the servo. There is even a hole right under the bell crank such a poor design. Filled everywhere dirt and rocks could enter the body with foam. Very poor placement for the steering servo arm, anything can lock up the steering. I have one and other than that like the car.

    I'm not sure which version this is I think it's prior to the V3 release which fixes the shocks leaking as well as other complaints with the Arrma Senton. It's an overall better and higher quality design than the dated slash 4x4 which I own by the way. the Arrma looks far easier to work on and the slash takes a number of upgrades to handle the same abuse in my opinion I have more money than I'd like to admit into my slash 4x4. I hope that helps.

    It's a common issue with the 3s shocks. The problem is that the o-rings are not compressed enough in the shock cartridge Use one stock o-ring and three 2.6x7x2.2 o-rings (eBay/Amazon) in each cartridge with a lot of green slime/o-ring grease when you rebuild them. Using thicker oil than stock can also help too. Stock is 500 cSt for the Typhon 3s. I used 900/800 front/rear

    5:12. Right on. So many times you see people switch out parts for metal upgrades here & there. They think their rig is getting better. All they're doing is making it heavier & transferring those impacts to a different part which will then break. If anything, I want my basher rig light and flexible. If any part of it is a weak point or might tend to break, I'd prefer that part be on the outer side of the rig or something that's quick & easy to replace vs say a more internal part that will take more time.

    Adding metal parts is a very tricky situation. The manufacturers spend a lot of time and effort creating durable models. Upgrading to shiny aluminum parts is so hard to resist. I've had to learn the hard way. I've learned that eplacing an inexpensive break away part after a crash sure beats a serious teardown , troubleshooting and rebuild. I agree a week spot is essential in the drivetrain and Suspension or the repairs get really expensive lol There's no substitute for experience . In other words I agree 100%

    No way that can be better than your slash. I'm no fan boy but my lcg 4x4 slash ultimate with all the included hop ups is my all around go to rc. As far as durability well that's going to be based on many factors, driver, where you drive , how you drive, maintenance, on and on etc. Reason I like it so much is you can switch it up so easy. Monster truck , drag car, (well not so much with 4x4 by the rules) but I still do it. And SC racing you don't need all the hyped top speed of any of these crazy advertised brands, you'll never need it on the track or bashing. I see all these videos on here and people post 1 top speed vid the rest are all like what you were doing in this video, having fun. I don't get it. People just want to be able to say they can do 85 mph show it on gps and all the rest of their vids have nothing to do with top speed. ??? Maybe I'm just odd lol.
