Thanks so much for stopping by! Rc Car fun, Reviews, RC Bashing, Speed Tests, Upgrades and more! Im just following my RC journey and making content along the way!
Hello, are there spare parts available for this car? If not, are there similar cars that I can get spare parts from, such as Arma, HPI, or any other company?
hi man i got some problems with the hub pin that sits in the cvd, the metal spring there just won't hold it in place so the pin will go out and almost melt the plastic in the hub. is this a known issue? do you have any tips for what can i do if it's happened to you too?
I broke the pin in the front cvd - i replaced with an armour kraton pin and then experienced what your talking about in the end I replaced the cvd and the hub. It was after rediculous bad crash tho!
@@HEAT_RC it's going in to an 8 scale rally car, very light so hopefully less load. And to be fair I've not seen anyone else saying they catch fire yet
Really needing advice. I have a fully dressed all metal Arrma Mojave already, but wanting a big wheel monster truck basher. -Kraton 4s $450 or Kraton v5 6s $550.
I'm not trying to be that guy, but there is no reason to pay $770 for a Sledge in a world where the 5th scale Redcat Vigilante exist, and only cost $90 more.
I have mines paired with a supersonic motor. I haven't had issues with them but it was so much power, that i blew a driveshaft, front and rear diffs on my 1/7 team energy buggy
This is super random but you wouldn't be able to measure the width of the plastic driver piece & ball park guess the height of the drivers inside would you? I'm contemplating using that as an interior for another project and I can find the part but the pages never say what size they driver figures are. Much appreciated if you can.
Really appreciate your video and sharing from your experience. Been trying to decide for weeks which one to buy. So glad to hear the donkey looks better in person. It’s been growing on me.
I love my Kagama. I think the cheap tools that come with some cars can cause more problems then help. I would recommend spending 20-40 bux and get some good tools, stripped screws are a super pain. If you spend hundreds on a car, spend a few more on tools.
Hey i think i already had an 18 or 19t on there as i remember - i think the issue i was having was the pinion slipping and fouling the motor mount. I could not get a piniom to stay on this motor - it was alsmost like the shaft was vibrating under high rpm...and i noticed doRC also breaking the shaft on his...im not sure if there is an issue there!
I have had 3 hobbywing esc fail in last two months 2 brand new quikruns and 1 older sct max10 nor fires just no longer work and its not the switch they come on but dont work and a the 200 amp pro failed 3 months ago not too happy with hobbywing 🤔
I had a quick run fail too mine is flashing green and red light alternatly and wont recognise programming card 😂 all escs are pissing me off right now but at least it didnt catch fire
@johnsorensen5758 god damn i sense another video coming 😂i upped the brakes and the punch, tested it, it worked fine - came to use it the next day and flashing red and green led and unprogrammable
Tell me about it man they give you false hope for 2 minutes and let you down - nearly burnt up an expensive lipo too melted all the plastic casing on my nice lipo within a few seconds of the whole car going up
I have 3 of these, in asuga and kagama rollers and my mt8 Over 50 packs through the 3 of them, not skipped a beat, fantastic ESC imo Mt8 run on 4s Kagama and asuga, only ran on 6s, and I've got all 3 drenched in the shower when I'm washing them down Ebay uk i got mine from
Thanks for sharing your experience. The first version of the controller was also not recommended. Apparently, they could only be used safely up to 4s. Unfortunately, nothing has changed. Somewhat surprisingly, the Rocket motors should be very good.
*Update I have been in touch with the Surpass Hobby Online store on Ali Express and they say they have removed the product from the shelves..So it is defective - beware tho do not buy it from resellers as they are still selling on Ali Express!*
Wow. This is the 3rd one of those I have seen catch on fire. I wonder if they are just using the old Castle Cremations design? lol So sorry you had to deal with this. Well.... at least it failed before you could break a control arm.
I know there's a lot of amp draw when you blip the throttle and it's getting going from a dead stop, but there should be some overheat protection or thermal cutoff for sure 👍
Thanks so much for Tuning in! Dont forget to drop a comment down below and smash the thumbs up! 😁👍 i should mention - there is 1 more hop up you can get - rear chassis brace stiffner but it was out of stock when i purchased from the website.
What's your thoughts on putting the metal exb diff housing and diffs with 80k from kraton exb 6s v2 in the fireteam. I want to do it but I don't see anything on RU-vid about it. I want to do it but I'm worried about it changing the way the fireteam drives.
Its an interesting one! I used a mojave exb roller chassis on my fireteam and i liked the way it handled! I think making things unique can be half the fun! Your definitely in uncharted territory! So i cant say 100% it will fit dimension wise it would fit but i dont see why not! 😊
Mojave EXB and Karaton EXB v1 stuff is all interchangeable tho and will fit. kraton hubs will also fit and make your fireteam a little wider, if you can get the grub screws out of the hubs 😂
