I received a 2nd hand one yesterday. I found it on marketplace. It is the 2022 model. Based on your video I ordered the Gens Ace 3s 5000 lipos because it would fit. But no! Length is correct, but width is wrong. Really come a few centimeters short. So I have to cut some more to get them to fit. But what a beast! I also have a JLB cheetah, but this is a different class. Love your reviews on the cars!

Jay Tee RC got 60mph from his stock Radix 6 with a heavy 8000mah 6s 75c battery, so yes they can do the claimed 60mph out the box subject to conditions. He also got 74mph on 22t pinion but with smaller diameter 1/8 road wheels/tyres. You have to cut the plastic gear cover away to run this large pinion, i believe the largest size pinion you can get in is an 18t without removing plastic from the cover.

As long as all you need is a pinion change and decent batteries to reach the advertised speed I think it's fine. Needing to use a larger pinion makes sense because cars are set up differently for speed runs than for bashing.

Just got my first team corally! the shogun xp 6s I also own the aarma Typhon 6s and Krayton 6s and that shogun is faster out the box the only problem with the car is you can't run it on 6s until you oil and grease all 3 diffs at the proper ratios smh not really rtr for that tuning but definitely able to run the car at 4s with no diff drama straight out the box and boys even at 4s she's a monster!

@TK_Mo 3 года назад

2 quick points... I agree that RC manufacturers should post real world attainable speed results for the RC as it comes out of the box. What I believe those numbers actually typically represent however, is a mathematical representation based on the gears in a vacuum, under no load, no resistance and zero friction. Not all RC manufacturers but, most. Next, lipo batteries don't like being cold? True however, that's internal battery temps. Lipo's could care less about the temperature of the air around the battery. If you take the battery from your warm home to your warm car, the battery is not cold and should work flawlessly. It's not like it's going to get cold while in use either.

@TomleyRC 3 года назад

I think Lipos operate at their maximum performance over 75F.... so being that it was 0C... I’d say by the time they have got up to temp, the voltage has dropped off just enough to reduce the speed by a small amount. These do 60 out the box, I’ve seen them do it. So it’s either the air temp... or my Lipos are getting old.

@TK_Mo 3 года назад

@@TomleyRC could be, I'm not saying that you are absolutely wrong, I just don't find it logical. We are not talking about a low density object. It's like a frozen stake in 100 degree F weather but the opposite. It doesn't thaw immediately and it takes even longer to penetrate. I'd guess the cold had a greater impact on the drivetrain than the batteries. JMO, no shade or disrespect just how is see it and having a discussion. Nice RC regardless. Team Corally makes a very nice RC. I'd say IMO, it is better and tougher out of the box when compared to the Arrma Typhon but it's not an Arrma killer simply because it lacks the aftermarket support. Also, though parts are available in the US, they aren't abundant. I love my Kronos. It's my second favorite 1/8 scale. My favorite 1/8 scale is the Team RedCat TR-MT8E BE6S. I don't own a 1/8th scale buggy yet. I want to get a Typhon roller for a drag and drift build. I want to use the Mohave chassis for a dual motor build. I don't want to go crazy with it, I'm thinking dual sensored running 4s each.

@@TK_Mo It’s all good mate. I like to hear others thoughts on things... Over the last few months I’ve done a fair few speed runs, and the speeds/battery life doesn’t seem to be as good as the summer. Your explanation seems very plausible. It will be interesting to test it again with the same Lipos but when the weather picks up.. and I’ll make sure they are keep warm prior to running. See what the results are 👍🏻

@@TomleyRC I'm open to suggestions on chassis for that dual motor build. The Arrma platform will be expensive. People are proud of there used Typhon's.
