RC JUMP BUILD (KICKER) FOR BIG RIGS🤙🏼
Nice looking rig, I have the green stock version and it suits me just fine.. I gotta get some belted tires for sure
@@kaepernickjae2029 That’s great!
Looks good one bad landing and not much damage they pretty tough I like the xmaxx I wish I had all the bigger cars there all so cool...
@@justinfolster2278 Yes, they are tough and the XMaxx is awesome 👍🏼
Nice so when u do a back flip do u hit the throttle when u at the top of the jump or when your in the air....
@@justinfolster2278 Hey, Justin. You want to almost be at half or less trigger as you are leaving the jump. Then, you hit the trigger in the air. Depending on what RC you have, it varies greatly on how much trigger and of course how much time you have to rotate before returning to earth🤣
Right on ya I was wondering that thanks I'll give it a shot one of these days ....
@@justinfolster2278 You can do it!
that's where razor rc goes isn't it another youtuber
@@MARTINHOBSON-c5j Yes it is, also RC Review frequents this spot👍🏼. It’s great!
Hello I just uploaded of this video you might be interested in
Hey! Buddy nice viideo can you post link for fan? Thanks 😉👍🏽💯
@@vitodambra72 a.co/d/7VQfMWC
@@vitodambra72 Thanks, it’s a good one👍🏼
Nice vid. Would be nice to see the cleaning process.
@@Prodicalson-q9n Ok, I will do a video with each step next time👍🏼
@@paulgaddini thanks. 👍
funny 🤣
Nice job Man, after a pressure wash i run mine down the street flat out and it spins the water out, then blow it and oil it up.
Does this work? Everytime I wash my rcs the bearings rust up no matter how long I blow it out with the compressor
@@jeremyhoman9076 That’s great, Jeremy!
Lee Majors!!!
@@fcknmaw3883 Legend!
That's what you should get for the little...bastard 😂😂😂😂
Howdy that motor is a 200Amp motor & the ESC is a 160Amp so you are 🏃 @ 60% of what the RC is capable of doing If you put a max5 or XLX2 in her she will be a whole new animal & no more turning on and off the ESC
@@SixShooterRC Great info and advice Brother!👍🏼
@@paulgaddini No problem I enjoy helping ppl & the max5 is a more affordable way to go
@@SixShooterRC I am going to get one, thanks again!
What wheels/tires are those?!?
@@Gabriel3332x2 Jconcepts “Magmas”. Best tired/wheels you can buy. And best of all, bead-locks👍🏼
LFG brother!!! LOOKING CRISPY
@@RockyMtBashers Thanks Brother!!
I don't run my cars in mud and not much dirt but I clean them every time I drive them and I blow with compressor and I check my screws and shocks plus I charge my battery every time I drive it 😮😎👍
@@richardbrown6762 Love it Richard👍🏼👍🏼
Traxxas products are much easier to clean if you ask me.. Everything under the arrma body is all crammed up
Ya definitely a sick looking rig and the no stickers looks pretty good on the kraton and u can definitely see ya did the detailing really good looks shiny I'm gonna have to pick up some of that cow rc stuff I like having mine looking clean and new looking and they last longer to....
@@justinfolster2278 Thanks, Justin! Yes, I believe the better we take care of our Rigs, the better they function and the longer they last👍🏼
I run into the same problem running cheap batteries in both my 6S and 8S Arrma RCs with the V2 escs. They draw more power than the smaller or cheaper packs from places like Amazon can handle. They experience too much voltage drop under load and trip lvc. I switched to running CNHL 90C racing packs and Gensace 120C bashing packs and the problem went away with lower IR packs that can deliver higher amps.
@@Doug_Morgan Thank you, Doug! I think I will get me some of those you recommended👍🏼
My car steering is messed up I replaced the servo and its still not working like its hard to turn very still properly and idea what it could be?
@@ashleythomas5553 Hi, I had the same issue. Check the ball joint screws, if they are too tight, it will not let the steering move freely, nor the suspension.
Hall joint screws are too tight . Take off bottom shock screw and make sure it he arms go up and down and steering isn’t too tight
good run love those tyres. all I have done to mine is put a bit longer screws in under the chassis put a 28t pinion on and broke one of those tier drops on the front chassis brace so replaced with m2c part. also put an extra shim in the front and rear diffs love the car though like you said loads of air control 👍
@@MARTINHOBSON-c5j Nice, Martin! Such a great RC🚀
Hell yeah dude. Sucks everything I emailed him about he said was already gone. Good pick up man. I’m sure u will have a lot of fun with that beast.
@@Tattoosandtoys Thanks man! Yes, most of them sold so fast, I was lucky!
Congratulations good deals
@@TraeStrickland Yes, could not pass it up👍🏼
Congratulations, sir. I wanted that one so bad but it was already taken.🤣😂👍🏽👍🏽
@@IMGONEIN60 Thanks! I guess I got lucky with the timing 🤷🏻♂️👍🏼🤣
Just a epic of a rc, absolute beast! With its power plant it's like seeing it shot out of a canon!
@@mackali7678 Yes!!! Soooo good!!!
Very Nice. I got his Big Rock6s the other day, and this week his Orange V1 Maxx.
@@T1Jafo Thanks so cool! Love the Big Rock 6s. The Maxx is great as well👍🏼
Mannn, that thing seriously looks brand new!!! The piece of machine is a piece of art.
@@mackali7678 Yes and thank you! It’s so good looking🤣👍🏼
Earl is really good, he’s fined tunned esp with the suspension.
@@jagergerg9771 Agree!
Nice what products u use for cleaning looks really shinny....
@@justinfolster2278 Thanks Justin! I use CowRC Moo-Slick on the plastics and their spray lubricants on the moving parts. Good stuff👍🏼
That is the same gearing I run in both my Xmaxx and XRT. I have to watch temps when running hard in the grass but otherwise it has been great.
@@Doug_Morgan Great! I think it’s perfect 👍🏼
Glad you got that from earl. Nice xmaxx bro. You got a new subscriber. ✌️
@@bigjay369369 Thanks Brother👍🏼
Arrmas just glide like birds. Xmaxx are more stunt bashers
@@jagergerg9771 Agree, 100%
Nice xmaxx that's probably my favorite looking xmaxx scheme and being a ultimate even better and ya couldn't of bought a used rc from a better person than earl moorhead....
@@justinfolster2278 ‘Thanks Justin! I agree, very glad to have it🤙🏼
Those orange Zeee batteries look like they're still in the box
@@Critter0817 Yes, they were at that point👍🏼
Sikkk Kraton Sorry Two things Bro you just took one of the best off road tires and ran them on the road to wear down what makes them tires great.... Your toy bro it's all good just suprised. 2, you actually mentioned a really good point about the Hero 7 GoPro I have a 7 and I've been tempted to upgrade but I've never had issues with the seven the only thing I wish it could do is record 120 frames per second 4k..... can you maybe elaborate why the later GoPros are not any better and are there any newer GoPros than the Hero 7 that work better than the 7 and will capture more frames yet don't have the issues that you're talking about.... Appreciate ya buddy
Thanks for this Brother, I just wanted to see the top speed on a hard surface. No more Magmas on asphalt, I promise😂 Ok, so most if not all GoPro's are water resistant which makes dissipating heat a real issue. The newer cameras, 8 and up use much more power to run and have bigger batteries. This makes them heat up faster. My experience with the 9 has been terrible. It heats up so fast, even on a cloudy day and shuts off or freezes. I have tried different batteries, rebooting, etc. I also think GoPro is on its way out. They lost their way in the past 4-5 years. They have had a few rounds of layoffs lately, the last one being rather significant. I will not buy another GoPro myself. I have lost/wasted so many videos thinking the thing was recording only to find out it turned off, sucks...
Hey brother go ahead and get the M2C pivot ball retainers there are two separate pieces and so that way they don't tighten or loosen based upon the activity of the truck they function just like the 6s rigs this was a big mistake by Arrma to make it one piece
OH, great advice brother, I will certainly do that!
I got 2 sets of the zeee 3s 10000mah 120c for my fireteam and they have been great 🤯 thats 1200a max🤯 still very low resistance. Great batts. Got the set for like $85🤯 think other set of same was about $100 from zeee store on eBay. 😁 Sweet truck man. Would love to get a set of these wheels too 😉 been looking at them. Great deal right now. $135 delivered for my truck 🤯😁 was worried a6the ballooning but they look pretty good. Could always put a set of zip ties around each side of center lug if wanted. Or soldier some tiny cable to right size. I have 1/16" aircraft grade cable 😁
@@redreefbud That’s great!
Vichhhhhhh
Big is Deck out
You need to find some dirt. That thing is way too clean. Also, the drywall tape/shoe goo hack is the way to go. It will make the body almost indestructible. It gets rid of that plastic sound you’re talking about when landing jumps too.
@@Whyusemyname LOL! Will do👍🏼
_The Kratons fly soo soooo well! How can anyone not just love this hobby!🖤💯_
Man i was crying inside watching you run those awesome tires on a parking lot i think you should look into getting some on road belted tires i have the duratrax on kraton 8s exb and love them so you dont chew up your off road tires also get some SMC SRD packs i got a set of 8600 and 6200mah SRD's the best or nothing
Thanks Nick! Me too! That was the only time I will run this rig on asphalt, was just trying to get a true speed with the Magmas 😂 Hearing a lot of good things about the SMC packs, I will definitely get some, thanks again!
Dont waste your money on those batteries get yourself some smc lipo's
@@nickkoepplinger9204 I agree, I do like the Ovonic brand also
I feel like some lubrication would be advisable too. Could be a contributing factor in the binding, and all that squeaking suggests this as well.
@@PowerheadProductions Good point!
They don’t need lube. It’ll just gunk up with dirt. They were just over tightened or tightened themselves while driving. I have hot racing aluminum inserts and they have an O-ring in there that keeps them from moving once you get them set. They work perfectly. Never had any issues with them loosening or tightening. You just need to tighten them up and back them off about a 1/4 to 1/2 turn so the ball can move freely in the joint.
@@Whyusemyname Thanks! Makes sense👍🏼
I was tempted to use oil and grease on all of the unlubricated parts but I quickly learned that it just attracts dirt and makes things wear faster. Everything other than the bearings and differential gears are designed to run dry. It’s annoying since I’m used to a little oil making everything run smoother but it’s not the case with RC’s. I do oil the pinion/spur gear but it flys right off on the first run usually
@@Whyusemyname Yes, I like to keep things clean and if applicable, well lubed🤙🏼
_Spend the money, and stick with SMC or even Spektrum batteries. They are far and away superior quality cells that last, and outperform everything else thats on the market that comes from China!_ _The K8 is such a great choice of RC.. out of the box they are actually capable & fun!_ _This is one that any enthusiast can easily grow into, and even go down the rabbit hole of doom spending upwards of 4,000 or more!_ _Wanna see something thats absolutely bonkers with one of these things, that not many people are doing..._ _Remove the front differential, and front drivetrain/CVD's.. make this thing an over sized rear wheel drive stadium truck! Gives this truck a whole new level of madness to play around with!_
@@SOMNIOHM Awesome advice! Thank you👍🏼
I just bought 3 pair of the same but 7200 mah 120c batteries because they were such a good deal. Hoping you got a bad pack because I’ll be bummed if I just bought 6 junk batteries. I almost went with the 80c but the 120c had great reviews. There were almost the same price so I figured why not. I didn’t think they could be worse.
@@Whyusemyname Yes, I hope they were bad packs the ones I got🤷🏻♂️
Damn that sounded like half throttle and you caught so much air
Yes! That jump is nuts!
it will go faster is you drop a few teeth on pinion
@@KiloWattRC Thanks! I have a 28t that I will be trying next week. Thanks for watching and the advice👍🏼
Nice bash! 😎
@@BeautyBeastRC Thanks Brother, I watch a lot of your videos, good stuff👍🏼
I think you'll get 60+ on a longer straight. Good luck Mate
@@jeremyhoman9076 Thanks Mate🤙🏼
It's your life
The rear differential is to loose
Thanks! And I agree. I tightened her up and it is working much better! Thanks for watching and the advice!
