  • ARRMA Tough
Color: Red
This truck is tough. I took it out for it's first run after a good charge on the batteries. I got a couple of good passes down beside the house and was getting ready to walk down to the park. Some nut job ran the stop sign in front of the house and ran over the RC . I thought the car was going to be completely destroyed. All that was broke was the front shock bolts and the shock tower was bent. I bent the shock tower back into place with some persuasion from a blowtorch and put 2 new machine screws on it and this thing runs fine. Super happy with the speed and durability. Wish I'd known about vent the tires before going through water. Already had to replace the front tires because of this. ... show more

  • ARRMA Kraton 6S honest review. BUY ONE!
Color: Blue
Where do I begin? This thing is good. Like really, REALLY good. I just got into the RC car hobby after a friend of mine from high school mentioned RC cars to me and then took me to try some of them (he himself has been 20+ years into the RC thing). The same evening I'm online looking at my new hobby: RC cars. I quickly began my journey by purchasing a few cheaper RC car options on Amazon, but ended up feeling underwhelmed; fast forward to me getting the ARRMA Big Rock two days days later and liking every minute of running that thing, it was great. Now another 2 weeks have gone by and this monster arrives at my doorstep. Whoa. This is on another level: BIG, heavy, aggressive, loud (open middle diff), intimidating, all of the above. This thing rips and everyone around wants to know what it is and where they can purchase one... The pictures show the Kraton 6S compared to the Big Rock and some accessories being installed (I highly recommend the following ---> AR320366 Wheelie Bar Set ; ARRMA Super Basher Front Bumper EXB ARA320573 ; ARRMA Motor Heatsink 4074, ARA390299 ; Front Bumper and Skid Plate ARRMA Kraton 6S RPM81812 (PUTTING THIS ON THE BACK!). Last 2 pictures are with different tires since I tend to run almost exclusively on asphalt. One last thing, make sure to set the servo endpoints prior to running, some have mentioned issues with their servo burning out without doing this prior to running it and I did immediately out of the box and can report the servo has survived 20+ 4S and 6S runs. Cheers and enjoy. ... show more

  • Hell of a good time!!!!
Color: Blue
This is not some kid's rc car, this truck is a lighting fast beast. Good luck trying to good full throttle from stop. So much power it will flip itself on it's back. Super resilient truck, my son had some off brand 1/10 scale off Amazon, I was going full speed across field there was an accidental crossing of paths. I ran his over and completely destroyed front suspension of his. This truck went for flip in air and started cart wheeling, and walked away no issues. After incident with son's car, I upgraded him to the arrma vortek 1/10 scale. ... show more

  • Holy Moly
Color: Red
This thing is so fast, and I haven't installed the optional gear yet. So much fun. I just need a larger parking lot or open field to go all out. If you got the money get it!!!!

  • Ready to upgrade right out of the box
Color: Red
I've been running my Kraton 6S for about two weeks now, and it's finally been upgraded/repaired out of the box to the point where I finally like it. I own 10+ RCs so I would say my experience is intermediate, a 50mph basher feels right at home for me. The list of pros about this truck is very long, as it should be for a $560 basher. However, there are several cons as well which shouldn't exist at this price point, let alone any hobby grade RC, which I'll get to. Pros: * 6S power. Hits 50+mph right out of the box. It will wheelie and flip onto its lid if you mash the throttle. * All terrain basher. 1/8 size with chonker tires and 3+ inches of ground clearance means you can drive this anywhere. * Durable. I've crashed head first a couple times with no broken parts so far. * Very stable. Long, wide, and relatively low center of gravity make this really easy to drive and controllable at any speed. * Sway bars included. This prevents the truck from rolling over during hard turns, unless you intentionally want to flip it. * Programmable ESC. You can set the punch and brake settings. * Lots of features on the radio, such as throttle limit (50/75/100), servo endpoints, and steering rate. * Big battery tray with velco straps. This makes it easy to use a wide range of battery sizes. * Relatively easy to work on and modular design. Although I haven't taken the truck apart yet to work on it, it doesn't look too difficult. Cons: * Screws are set with red threadlocker from the factory. This makes it a HUGE pain to take apart and do basic maintenance/repair. Why would Arrma do this? Why not just use blue threadlocker? * Servo saver is way too flexible, nonadjustable, and red threadlocked together. This causes the steering to be extremely sloppy out of the box, leading to a huge turning radius on hard cornering or when driving offroad, since every little bump will cause the servo saver to flex and the wheels to straighten out again. This is a V4 and V5 issue, the previous Kratons did not have this design. * Servo not centered and endpoints not set from the factory. This is just laziness, and the not set endpoints have been leading to tons of failed servos only a few runs in. * Spektrum servo is crap. Mine died after two runs, although I suspect it could have been because I didn't set the endpoints first. * Spektrum Firma motor runs HOT. On a 40 degree day after 30 minutes of running on 6S, my motor was at 170 degrees, which is the absolute limit the motor should be running at. If it was a 70 degree day, the motor would've been well into the 200+ degree range and I'd have a fried motor. Recommended out of the box upgrades/repairs: * Set the servo endpoints. * Add shims to the servo saver spring to tighten the steering. * Get a heatsink and fan for the motor. * Add a wheelie bar. Don't get me wrong, I really like the Kraton so far. At 50mph it's really controllable and stable, which is saying a lot. Most of my trucks are 1/10th scale and once they get past 40mph they become wild and uncontrollable, and they get bumped around by rough terrain due to their smaller scale. The Kraton is easy to drive at any speed on any terrain (once you fix the sloppy steering), tough, and easy to work on. ... show more
