Arrma 4s Outcast/Kraton Servo Saver Upgrade. 3s 4s Hot Racing and Kimbrough. Steering Fixed? 

Hiya mate. Oh yes you can't say stiffer or harder without a little fnarr 😂 Weather has stopped outdoor related fun today as you know but got some little indoor RC bits done. Cheers for watching and your great comments as ever. Best wishes 😁👍👍👍

Hi there. Oh yeah I do still like this truck but I just need to drive it in lower traction environments. Yes the other cars are all still available for different terrains. Many thanks for your great support as ever. Best wishes 😁👍

Hi there. Yeah this one is good for wheelies and jumps but not so good for steering. Loose ground does seem to work best. Many thanks indeed for watching and your kind feedback. Best wishes :-)

Hi there. Oh yeah silly me with the snippers on the Kimborough, oops! I did try to get the higher kg Ecoboost servo but out of stock at the time. Yes this thing does need a bit of slip with the back tyres and then it it really good fun. Many thanks indeed for your great feedback. Much appreciated 😁

Glad the servo upgrade went well. I'm happier with mine now. Shame about your drive shaft. I've not broken one of those just yet. Many thanks indeed for watching and your comments 😁👍

Hi there. Yeah it does improve this one a bit. Many thanks for watching and your comments 😁👍

Hi there. Yes I could do with something like that for sure. Many thanks indeed for your great feedback. Much appreciated 😁👍

Hi there. Yeah it's a shame they didn't put in an adjustable servo saver within the linkage rather than this servo mounted one. The 3s cars seem to work fine but the big wheels on this are too much for this servo saver. Many thanks indeed for your great feedback. Much appreciated 😁👍👍

Oh yeah I quite often forget that I've got a Dremel type tool but it has been useful for taking bits of plastic out of chassis' when doing mods. People are telling me that the trimmed plastic one is still strong enough but I reckon that the metal one is better. Many thanks for watching and your feedback 😁👍👍

Oh yeah you'll have fun with it for sure Chris. Be interesting to see what you make of it. I think you'll like it but you'll still like your Big Rock the best. Cheers for watching mate :-)

Hi there. Oh yes I saw somebody putting the lmt servo saver in one of these. He did need to put spacers in to raise up the servo. Hope it works out for you. Many thanks for your great feedback 😁👍☺️

Hiya Derek. Oh yeah I think that the long wheelbase ones are easier to drive. This is mainly good for aiming at a jump or doing wheelie's. Thank you for watching mate. Best wishes to you and yours.

OMG....just seen your amazing thumbs up graphic!!!!!

Hiya Damian. Oh I just did one little cut with the clippers and it all broke apart! Wasn't expecting that. I think it would be good where you want a servo saver that shape like on a lot of the Tamiyas. Ooh brushless you say? What's that going in? Yeah lipo will pep up your cars even more. Oh yeah I found that new 3d thumbs up thing in the editor. Quite cool isn't it. Cheers for watching mate. Hope all is well 😁

@@PeteWylieRC No idea what the motor is going in but it was a good deal...may dsit there for a year before I get to it lol I will send you a message with what I got. You can tell me more no doubt.

Well like most RU-vid channels I'm just somebody who does a hobby sharing what I'm up to with a generally friendly community. I do explain my mistake with the Kimbrough servo saver and what I should have done and then showed the Hot Racing upgrade and did a test drive with it. I shared my thoughts on what I think of the truck and the upgrade. Nowhere do I say that I know what I'm doing. If you already know so much about this then why are you even watching and why don't you make a video about how to do it properly. I receive very few negative comments and the ones I do get are always from channels with no content like yours. Like I say this is mostly a friendly community so lets keep it that way.

Hi there. Yeah it's a v2 Outcast. There is no difference in the fitment of the servo saver between the different versions of the car. This will fit the 3s cars too. Thanks for watching 😁👍

Hiya Dom. Yeah this thing is good at what it does and fun if you've got a big space and slippery ground. Many thanks for watching mate. Much appreciated 😁👍👍

Thanks for watching 😁👍

Many thanks. I've taken most bits apart on the 3s cars in various videos. Did they cover what you wanted to know? They are pretty much the same.

Hi there. Yeah I did nearly go for the Kraton but I got this because I like my Granite so much and thought this would be similar. I think that the Kraton probably works better in most situations. Many thanks for watching and your great feedback. Much appreciated 😁👍👍

Hi there. I'm in the UK and it does seem like a lot of RC bits are cheaper in the US. I've been much happier with this truck since installing the upgrade so it's worth it. Many thanks for your great feedback 👍

Yeah i live in france too, had the same understeer issue w/ my k4s (v2.5) and ofc same price issue for non-arrma pieces :< I just bought the HR servo saver, i am still waiting for it. Are you happy too with the HR servo saver one ?

Thank you for your kind feedback. You know I have a new found love for this truck now that I've done the steering mod and also now that the tyres have worn down a bit so it can slide the back round easier. Also it is much more fun on loose ground like I was saying in the video. Thanks again :-)

@@PeteWylieRC I've converted my K 4s from a slipper clutch to a central diff like the new V2.5, and that has reduced the wheelie a bit. I'm also ordered some tyres that doesn't bite as easily so hopefully that will help. Another option is to change the diff oils to reduce the wheelies a bit more. But that's a task for another day :-)

@@emilepieters1189the kraton still steers like crap even with the center diff. I did the servo saver mod to mine and it helped the steering tremendously. I used the kimbrough one.

Many thanks for watching and your great feedback. Much appreciated 😁👍👍

I'm just showing that you can get that whole unit out if you want to. Some people say that's easier. When I actually change the servo saver in the video I'm leaving that in place. It's just to show different options. Thanks for your feedback 👍

Hiya John. Oh yes I should have been more careful with the trimming of that Kimbrough servo saver. There was a bit of a gap before the other one arrived from China. Yes this thing is still fun and it's certainly good at wheelies. Many thanks for watching and best wishes to you and yours 😁👍👍

Oh really, that's interesting. I found it to be a great upgrade and I put it on my 4s Mojave too. Maybe try that Kimbrough one but beyond that I'm not sure what to suggest. Shame they didn't use one more like the 6s cars. Thanks for your feedback and hope you find a better solution 👍

@@PeteWylieRC I think the reason it didn’t work in my case the kraton uses large tires and has a wide stance, it may be the stock servo.
