Hey Rich! Got my EXB last Wednesday....30 packs in😎 I like the performance of the AGF-RC servo on 7.4 from the Max6, thank you for the recommendation. Placeholder Arrma 2050kv motor for now. Broken the rear wing mount at the bulkhead and sheared the bolts into the shock tower/rear diff.....twice! But that was after numerous 40+ mph cartwheels of a kicker ramp😎 Spare parts and HW dual motor fan heat sink enroute. I sure hope Arrma comes out with a Mojave Roller. Off to Ladera Ranch to bash today!

As for the motor choice, I thought you made that quite clear in your electronics installation video that you chose “what you had available” and had plans to insert a Tekin truggy motor “when you could”. It looks like the roller held up well to a beating and it seems well constructed and durable! Stay safe buddy!👍🤓🇦🇺

@chrischupp9760 4 года назад

Glad it held up

@TheRCNetwork 4 года назад

It did quite well!

@DoRC 4 года назад

Basically the diff works because the side gears get pushed outward due to their beveled nature when one wheel starts to spin. This pushes on the clutches locking them together. Since some clutch discs are tied to the axle and some to the diff case it slows the spinning of that axle and wheel. I'd be interested to see how well this works in practice though since there is no friction material on these clutches. Can you try to hold one wheel and spin up the motor? If this works properly it should be very hard to hold one wheel while the other spins.

Heads up to those who purchase the replacement RPM wing mounts #81642 for an EXB.....they fit fine with 1 mm removed from the bosses that mount to the aluminum shock tower. Still 3mm of plastic for the bolt head to sit on. More flexy than the OEM.... $17 vs $10 for stock Arrma. More flexible should be better.

Tech question for you , i have the same servo and receiver that you used ; Did you do any pre programming on the servo or use that switch that came with the receiver . Or can i just install them both like a standard set up and adjust settings through my futaba transmitter . Thanks for your time ...

I didn't see a shim and it really didn't;t seem too needed one (just comparing it to my many other race inspired builds)

@cwatson42785 Год назад

Hey Rich do you wipe down your rcs after every run?? Gotta imagine that would get time consuming to do that after every run. Or was it more cause you were doing a video and also wrenching on it? I usually blow mine off with a compressor and throw it back on the shelf and run it a few more times and then clean it down and I'll move onto another rc and repeat lol. Great video though Rich, really helpful. Appreciate your advice and knowledge 👍🏻🍻

@TheRCNetwork Год назад

Every RC gets blown off with my compressor when I put them away. If I'm working on it, I'll then wipe it down like you saw in the video. It's very rare that I put away a dirty RC though.

@ronkeele7294 4 года назад

I checked what you said about the diffs only being limited slip in front and center. This statement might be wrong. The part number shown in the manual is for the Limited Slip Diff. ARA310990 for front and back. Please check this. Either you are mistaken or the manual has a misprint.

@TheRCNetwork 4 года назад

If you look at the owners manual that I had in the video - the front and center had exploded views of the LSD plates. One the one section of the owners manual, it had an exploded view of the front/rear with the rear noted as having spacer washers in place of the LSD plates. I haven't pulled the rear diff yet, just going off of the manual. As for replacement parts, the front and rear are identical, so I would assume that the part number would include the plates and you would have to determine if you're using it on the front/rear.

@bobarends6324 4 года назад

Nice vid again. Got a Kraton V4 with rpm arms, rpm wingmount, stronger servo, chassis braces, t-bone bumper & rpm rear skidplate. Keep upgrading the V4 (when things break) or sell it and order the EXB? I'm not an extreme basher btw. Love the look of the EXB though.

@VaporRipper 4 года назад

New to hobby. Slightly confused. Isn't that Tekin 2000kv motor only rated for 4s? I've been looking at the Tekin combo setups, but confused on what motor to get for my EXB. 1900kv? 2000kv? or do I have to go down to a 1440kv if I'm running 6s? Please help. Thanks!

@TheRCNetwork 4 года назад

VaporRipper Tekin over-specs their motors. Typically a 2000kv motor should work fine on 6s - in fact the stock 6S Arrma motor is 2050kv. I checked with Tekin about the build and had them look - they said, based on weight and everything, the 2000kv 4038 (longer Truggy can) will be fine on 6s. Now, warranty wise......not sure they would technically warranty it.....but oh well! The 1900kv I had installed is a short buggy canned motor similar to the Tekin T8 4030.

@VaporRipper 4 года назад

@@TheRCNetwork Thank you. So a Tekin 2050kv should be fine then? For some reason the 2000kv combo is like $50 more than the 2050kv combo at the moment. I'll grab the 2050kv if it will work. Already got a Protek370TBL servo. Building a monster.

@TheRCNetwork 4 года назад

The Maxx is a bit smaller in size (1/110th scale vs 1/8th scale) and contains a ton of plastic in comparison....If you want to be in the Traxxas eco system, or already are (batteries, charger, etc) it might be a better choice. All out durability and performance, I'd have to give it to the EXB

Remember the EXB has no electronics while the Maxx does. You can't go wrong with either TBH. Kevin Talbot, one of the hardest on his RCs on RU-vid may help you make your choice.

@bigbillneace 2 года назад

I have both, the maxx v2 is awesome and durable but the larger size of the kraton and larger tires make it a slightly more serious machine rocking 6s power. The maxx v2 is an awesome turn key machine ready to go out of the box, battery adapters can help avoid being stuck with only traxxas batteries, both trucks are awesome.

@@Victic005 the Kraton was designed first and all else evolved from there….in comparison, the 1/8th race vehicles (Tekno, AE, Lodi, Mugen) have diffs about the same size. I too had several OFNA vehicles (lived right by OFNA/Nitrohouse and the Hyper series had similar sized diffs…..what differs are the quality of metals and the quality of plastics…..not to mention that Arrma users likely don’t maintain their vehicles as well, and drive them a harsher (bash) than a race vehicle.

@Victic005 2 года назад

@@TheRCNetwork I thought the Typhon was first. My OFNA diff from the 9.5 is way bigger. This is back in the days when powerful electric motors weren't yet around.

Seems like the diff has broken on every truck they made? Wth

@TheRCNetwork 3 года назад

Dustin Blades diffs break due to poor driving and over powering your RC. Mine did not break! 😃👍 Arrma and Horizon is aware of the isolated incidents - most have been due to the incorrect amount of shims inside the rear diff to spot hold for no LSD plates (They’re only in the front and rear). The diff should have 3 shims on each side, I believe (once again inside the diff) - some made it out of the factory with only 2 on each side.

@davidturner2365 3 года назад

I thought it was just the center diff that a limited slip

@TheRCNetwork 3 года назад

On the original release of the EXB, the front and center had the LSD plates and the rear had spacers...which failed on some peoples kratons. Arrma now has LSD plates on all three diffs

That's notorious on a pillow ball suspension truck - especially with truggy length arms. Even race quality trucks will have side to side play

Use 5mm washers alongside or instead of the existing spacers

Everyone is having problems with the diffs

@TheRCNetwork 4 года назад

The manual is not clear on how to re-assemble the diff with regards to the plates - Also, when ever people start adding their own electronics, there will be problems (the diffs are the first weak point in any build)...as well as labeling "Extreme Bash" - it seems like it gives people a license to try and be "that guy" that destroyed the seemingly "unbreakable" RC. Everyone is also a broad term - you must mean the 3 people in FB groups that are standing on their soapbox?
