PUSHING THE LIMITS?!😱NEW ARRMA Kraton 4s V2 blast!
Ойын-сауық
Out for bash #2 with the New Arrma Kraton 4s V2! Such an amazing driving and handling truck! Near 1/8 scale size you get a much lighter rig and parts are also cheaper. Perfect for some new to the hobby or even the seasoned hobbist! Still blown away by the overall durability! I did end up cracking the chassis off those big field jumps but plastic simply has limitations! The rest of the truck is still perfect! I did gear up to a 15 tooth pinion for the dirt bashing and a 18 for the street launches! BIG thanks again to Horizon Hobby and @ARRMARC Thanks for watching!

Awesome Rip Brother Eric 😜. Glad you were able to patch the chassis after doing the 18T mega sends 😱. 15T truly is the sweet spot for the stock electronics without heat issues 👊. I'm so impressed with the overall durability and performance of this new version!!! Such a different experience from the heavier 6s line. So smooth and agile. Gotta love the simple maintenance and modular design too 😍. My O4s blows doors on the Maxx for handling, performance, and (most importantly) fun factor. It's bigger and still lighter. Anyways, wicked bash and drifts Brother!!! 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

@@timmyd463229 I'm pretty sure he not only very much believes it is across the board But the fact that ive never heard @RichDuberbash sound like he's ever had in his latest running vid... and I've watched literally every vid of his atleast once. Never heard the man so happy the entire session but the Rig came out without any damage really sending it, even for him. That said IMO between what the man did mention above along with the seriously impressive session he had last... sounds like it gets the R.D. Approval stamp to me. It seems to be the perfect storm of composite plastic, the 1/8 size with solid suspension OTB that's capable of putting the power down but more nimble but able to flex. Looks like I have a purchase to make. 🍻👌💵💸

Glad you mentioned the 15t pinion. I have thr krston 4s v2.5 with the center differential and the stock 13t pinion is fun I was always wondering how high we can go with the stock electronics. Don't want to over heat. Did you happen to try a 14t? Just wondering how much of a difference between the 14t and 15t. Also can you use the stock spur gear with thr 14t and 15t?
