Regarding the EXB front brace. I purchased the Notorious V4 and used the EXB braces to tranform it into a kraton. You are able to use the front EXB brace with RTR. All you need to do is redrill the hole to accommodate the 4mm screw.

Another incredible review no doubt. Pretty spot on Vas on all points. I’ll say this about the wing mount on any of my arrmas. If I don’t land on them too often I don’t seem to break any. I did however feel the exb was much more durable. I believe the screws might help if the were bigger going through the tower to the bulkhead. But in the end you need a breaking point. Without question the most honest review you’ll find backed by facts and extensive knowledge and experience. Cheers brother!

The biggest failure Horizon/ARRMA have on their hands right now is the lack of product (the cars) and parts support for said products. Although parts for existing cars are mostly available and in good numbers, there's really no point in releasing new cars when no one can get parts for months. This situation is not a new issue, it's actually been happening as far back as when the Nero was released. I remember when I got that car (pre-release) the guy that was dealing with me was suggesting sending me a second Nero just so I could have parts to keep the first car going. Of course, back then ARRMA was still only a young company and didn't have the following we see today, so the problem of parts for a new car was not as severe as it is now. However, with the amount of hype they build up for these cars and given how popular they've become, not having parts for a new car is going to piss a lot of people off and everyone else will hear about it. It's just not good enough from Horizon and ARRMA should know better. Don't release a new product until you have parts on the shelf! Simple.

Great review... 2 bodies is my vote...

Great review, was looking for a detailed video of the differences between the rtr and exb aside from the “it has some red parts now” info I was seeing on other videos. Just picked one up and it appears to have silver shock tower screws. Wonder if that has been changed from feedback. Can u confirm if this has been changed. As always, I appreciate your honest reviews!

I honestly hope you have better luck with yours than I did with mine. Mine has been nothing but a headache and Arrma hasn’t provided me with any of the parts I need to fix it. I truly believe Arrma made a huge mistake releasing this rc without having any replacement parts manufactured for it. Everything is still on backorder to this day. I’m not here to bash Arrma. I think they make great products but they have definitely left me hanging. Mine was shimmed improperly and I destroyed the gears in my rear diff on the very first run. And they said they would send me a new lsd diff to put in the rear. That was way back In late July they said I should receive it by the end of August. It’s now nearly November and I still don’t have a diff. I ended up putting a spool in the back of mine just so I could run the thing. The spool has caused its own issues breaking things. I’m just soo over this machine at this point. Hopefully I’ll be able to run this thing at some point and enjoy it but it’s just been repairs and troubleshooting from the beginning.

I have this exb but took months of waiting and constantly looking on Rc web sites and now only got to wait 7 days now till I get my hands on it, mrs paid the💰 for Xmas

Could you do a review of the team corally radix6? It looks awesome but i wonder how it holds itself together when jumping and bashing.

I got two EXB and I don't bash mine, but I did break a rear wing mount and a rear diff case, then after that I stripped the rear diff not the ring and pinion but the spider gears,and I only run 4s batteries hope that you have better luck with you're EXB

I have the EXB chassis on my 2018 outcast and I have been pleased with the durability and it still straight

Oh, 100% it's the driver that breaks the wing mount, but do you think they'll ever admit that? LOL.

I've only ever broken one wing mount myself and it was on the V1 Kraton when I was trying to show off to my friend doing a standing double back flip on concrete and landed straight on the mount. Since then, never broken one on any of my cars. 😁

@@AussieRCPlayground they will never admit it. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’ve broke a few wing mount but either it’s my fault or it’s my fault trying to save the truck in the air and it hits directly wing mount. Other wise I haven’t broke a wing mount recently. And I’ve used both RPM and V4 version of the wing mounts. It’s like the plastic driveshafts too, I’m able to make those last a lot longer than most people but they eventually fail and I usually can get a lot of packs through them before they do.

They look nice But have they fixed the differential problem yet ?..

Nothing beats Thunder Tiger ST4..🤣..

agree with your thoughts on the EXB - and it must be very frustrating for Aussie local hobby shop's not getting the supply - BUT, the pandemic has introduced people like me to the hobby so it's not such a bad thing! Also, not so bad Oz misses out on the first EXB batch due to the rear diff - but from a LHS perspective not so good I guess. Are you going to fix your rear diff with the LSD or 12x18mm shim kit?

Vass love the way you opening box item on any RC because you're very thorough on what it's in the car but everybody doesn't like you hopefully you can do an opening box of the new Mojave EXB thanks😉🙋‍♂️👊🤙👍👍

I'm in the US and have been waiting on parts for my EXB since it came out. I got the 1st one that made it to the hobby shop I go to. Just like I'm still waiting on spare tires for my Arrma Felony . 🤬

You were generous in your review of the body. It's got to be the thinnest body they have ever put on a vehicle. It's so flimsy it's almost an absolute waste...but it looks cool.

Big tnx to Vas and Graham :)

Looks good, I do see room for improvement.

I just ordered one of these yesterday and this is my last hail mary for Arrma as far as giving them a chance. If this one gives me as many problems as the Outcast 8s and the 3s Typhon, ill be done with Arrma. My Outcast 8s has only had 1 run without a problem (not including breakages which is to be expected from any RCs) and the Typhon only has 2 runs since i purchased it and both times revealed their design flaws. Thus far ive had more problems with my 2 Arrmas than ive had in all my other 13 RCs combined. I will be putting a Mamba Monster X 8s sensored ESC with a 1717 can 1650 kv motor. I wont be running it on 8s as i think thats overkill for the typically 6s Kraton platform. Ive heard of people running it on 8s but i feel like that much power will wear parts out prematurely. I currently own Traxxas, Losi, ProBoat, Eflite and Arrma and the Arrmas break every time.

Fair enough. I've had no issues with ARRMA in all the years I've owned them and reviewed them, so either you have been unlucky or there's some other element at play that you're not telling us. Personally, I don't see the need to go that overkill on the EXB. The power system you've chosen is only going to give you more grief as you'll likely destroy diffs and ware out drivetrain components quicker than expected. I ran the Max6 1650kv in mine and that was already borderline excessive. Honestly, all you need is the Max8 combo and you'll be right in the sweet spot for power for this car. In any case, good luck with it and hopefully it doesn't give you any trouble. 🤞

@@AussieRCPlayground Ive not been hard on either of the Arrmas, mostly flat ground so far on terrain i run my UDR and Losi DB Pro. I do a few hill climbs but nothing rediculous. The Outcast split the center diff and spilled its guts all over the inside of the transmission, blowing tires off the rims, pinion coming loose, broke a shock tower, hit a rock and pulled the rear hinge pin brack completely off of it, broke a rear arm, pulled the rear camber links out stripping the plastic rod ends and the last thing that happened was the internals of the rear diff detonated. The only RCs ive ran easier are the Summit and TRX4. As far as the Typhon, broke the lower front shock rod end and lost the spring as it is exposed to anything that is high enough to hit it, after i solved that issue the slipper clutch came loose and it is the one part that needs like a million screws removed to tighten. The Outcast was purchased July 8th and has been sitting on the shelf since September with the rear diff out of it. The Typhon i got in August and still only has 2 runs on it. I bought the Outcast 8s so i could retire my Losi LST 3XLE, but obviously the Outcast has been retired first. Hopefully the Kraton EXB fairs better.

What do you think of the Kraton V5? Has the same A-arms as the EBX, back shock tower design seems the same but not 7075 Aluminum. New RC and SR315 receiver. Any thoughts?

Great video review Vas. Have to agree about a lot of things that you pointed out. 1 - locktight - aarma would save millions of dollars a year if they used less. 2 - exb - should be all exb and hardened steel parts. Screws , the most terrible screws and bolts i have ever seen in an rc car, they rust / they strip / they are too short / 1 bit of water and they start to rust. 3 - the chassis plate "3mm" rediculus in my honest opinion. 4 - body shell - 1mm if that body shell is rediculus, most cheaper rc cars have thicker and stronger body shells. 5 - pinion gear "why". 6 - unpainted body shell definitely yes. 7 - as far as stock in Australia. I think that horizon hobbies staff and owner don't care whatsoever about stock anywhere in the world, i honestly think that the main owner must have so much money that he just doesn't care about pleasing customers. They are the most difficult and rude ignorant people who don't want know you after a sale of their products, that goes for retail outlets aswell as customers who purchase aarma. I have heard so many rediculus excuses for no waranty back up / no stock available / unable to send to customers in Australia for warranty and so much more that i am so disappointed in horizon hobbies with there i don't care attitude towards all that buy aarma products. That's my honest opinion Vas. Great video bud

IMO it’s not worth it until they come up with better diffs everything else is basic repairs not hard at all even the chassis not the best there thicker aftermarket ones out there I think Armma taking hobbies to the bank I’ll wait till they actually design a tougher model what’s the sense in designing different braces if the chassis still prone to bend and there’s a better aftermarket one out there that they should’ve been aware of and trying to implement it to they cars I understand repairs are a part of the hobby but when replacement part not available that really sucks.

Diffs are fine it was just a shim issue. Arms needs to be boiled and they become almost like rpm in terms of flex. Chassi is fine I think a lot better than the stock v4 chassi. No rc out of the box would be able to handle rich duperbash abuse without upgrades

Do I need a drill? Before I’ve taken all the screws off with a hand 1.5 2 and 2.5 thanks

agree with your point about the red thread lock - did you use a hand tool or drill to try and unscrew? - just curious. The chassis point is interesting - how much extra would it cost for ARRMA to go from 3mm to 4mm? - and also the other area's such as top shock screw etc... BUT, I do think they should supply various pinion gears to cater for the lower KV and also higher KV e.g. 12T, 15T & 19T - looking forward to buying mine but not with a suspect diff haha...

I was given the opportunity to review it, so I did. ARRMA will still be shown on the channel in the future, it just won't come from ARRMA or Horizon. In fact, I also have the OutCast 8S and Felony here for review, but again, neither of those came from ARRMA or Horizon. As long as my viewers continue to support me and helping me get these cars for review, I'll keep doing it. 😊👍

I thinking of same setup with Max6 combo, can I just run it on 4s or does it need 6s. Also what pinion do you recommend if using 4s only thanks

I used a 19T pinion in mine and it worked great. 🙂

That's the exact scene motor I wanna run in my senton, I've got the 1100kv in my xmaxx and it's a total monster on 8s, but I do want an exb but waiting to see if they do a kraton 8s exb or come out with a v2 exb 6s

I think not including a pinion is a bad idea. No offense Vas but not everyone has bags of pinions like alot of us so it's nice for beginners to have a extra one to play around with. Great review Vas!

The other option is to include a couple of different size pinions like they do with the RTR version. 😉

Stainless steel screw kit is mandatory imo. Best upgrade for any RC

Only issue is that SS screws are softer than most standard screws and are not always ideal. But they do have their place.

@@AussieRCPlayground I've had good luck with "RC Screwz" even though they don't include everything. Haven't stripped one yet (knock on wood).

I wish, maybe someday I will own a kraton or talion

When it comes to the locktight. That is a horizon issue. Every damn car I have had from a horizon brand, has had entirely to much locktight. I have never understood why they use red locktight instead of the blue.

If they are using red loctite on RC's they are total imbeciles. Blue was the right choice when I installed swingarm spools on my motorcycle and that was 6mm threads lol.

2 years later I can report to you that they listened to you...except for the clear body lol cheers

You’ll want to get 12x18 shims for both sides of the rear diff. You will need between 1.75 and 1.90 per sun gear. If you use the LSD plates instead, it will drive like crap. It’s no fun to spin out every time you try to turn. Without supporting the sun gears, it’s only a matter of time before the sun gear teeth shear off. I’ve been thru a few rear diffs before seeing the 12x18 shim solution on the Arrma Forum proposed by BashingBrian. Thanks to RCProponent for the hookup too. ✊🏻

Now if Arrma would only release a no-thread-locker version...

mine didnt come with a pinion lol

Would that body fit on 6s v4

Can this be upgraded to 8s ? if so what is needed.

There is a 8S EXB Kraton for that purpose, this is best used on 4-6S. But if you want to use it on 8S for whatever reason, yeah, you can do it, just don't expect it to last. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I wonder if the central drive safety cups spin off centre like my infractions safety cups? Tolerance on these are a joke.
