Just a completely different kinda rush. Having the extra power has been wonderful 😍. My body is still hanging tough despite having been cracked when I got it. The center support mod has been critical. Also running a lexan support across the rear mounts now. It's ironic the XMaxx tires would work out so nicely 🤣. Big Girl is feeling super dialed. Hopefully Mitch will have his hardened shock shafts ready soon. Appreciate the kind words as always Brother!!!! 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much John 👊!!!! This build is a complete animal 👀. Been lots of doubters and naysayers with this base platform. I see it as the future of truly rad bigger scale basher's. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
Shortening this thing turns it into complete BEASTMODE. It's only been a few weeks & it's already getting the type of aftermarket upgrades it took the 6s line years to have. Man this rig is lucky but it still has a lot left in it potential wise. But this "flying start" is a serious understatement.
you really send it.... great work and if the kraton 8s came out of the box this strong and fast id buy one but like those traxxas tires on that arrma vehicle traxxas got a lot right with the xmaxx and still best basher, in good hands, for the money our of the box. IMO, of course. what you and the guys making the chassis have done for this vehicle is amazing... great work to you and the after marketers.
Thanks so much Brother 👊!!! The Kraton 8s did much better with simple gear and tuning changes 👍. Still didn't have Crazy torque, but great speed and handling with efficient electronics. ARRMA did a great job with this new release overall. The M2C options really transform her to a whole new level. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
What an absolute incredible build! What you’ve done with help from Mitch and all the adjustments you’ve made quite possibly makes this one of the best rigs out there imo! The wheelies for days, and how stable they are. Totally awesome. The “hole in one” and the slow mo at the end, that was just fricken awesome! The edits were superb, love how you went from parking lot to dirt track to sand then ramps etc. really was an awesome touch. Did you hit that small shack? I couldn’t exactly tell, nonetheless the whole video was just so cool to watch!! You’re absolutely killin it Rich! Really enjoying all the recent videos on this new build! “Traxxas got this right” lol!! 😉
Thanks so very much Brother 🤗!!!! This rig may be one of the sickest bigger rigs out there 🤔. I never imagined a rig this size being able to launch so far and handle so Killer on just about every surface. The core ARRMA parts and drivetrain have been flawless. The towers, bulkheads, and base platform have been incredible 👀. These test runs were ridiculously fun 😜. Perfect weather and tons of space to rip around!!! Yes, I smacked that announcers stand pretty hard 😱. Came off my line and scrubbed speed off the jump. This rig has taken way more abuse than I thought was possible. Still running original arms, links, etc. Really appreciate the kind words my friend 👍. Hoping guys will love this SWB Crusher setup like I have. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊
Wow Rich it looks and Goes Bad Ass 😱😱😱 Friggin Love your Bashing Vids ❤ Really enjoyed every minute of this as I always do, Have a fantastic weekend Brother, RC FRIENDS FOR LIFE 👍😍😎👍
EPIC bash with the M2C Crusher chassis bro Rich. I can't stress it enough how awesome and doubled the Fun this platform is. Genius wizard Mitch killed it with this build man. 1:38 was a money jump, perfect bucket! Was like a sumo wrestler jumped in the pool. Splash!! LOL 😂😂. Can definitely see a big improvement those Pistons and the combination of the droops mod made. Less to zero bounce 😱😍🤗👌👍. Those were some huge Aires bro. Very impressive to watch considering her size weight this Beast have. Wicked double BF. ' well, Traxxas got this right' LOL 😂😂. Right amount of ballooning for sure. Buddy of mine trying to get rid of a set, might snag them then LOL 😂😜. Sweet close up shot of the Pistons bro. Tekjo gasket looks killer too. Well done brother. EPIC bash!!
Thanks so much brother Chris 🤗!!!! That splashdown was sumo bellyflop style 😜🤣🤣. Had such a Killer time rippin through those puddles and at the Lake beach 🥰🥰🥰. Big Girl is a rocket now and feels super plush with the pistons and XMaxx wheels 😱. I made certain to tape my rim holes the 2nd time out. Pretty sure you'd dig them Bro 👍. I'd grab that set from your buddy. Perfect ballooning and great control with this wide platform. She flips so effortlessly now. I'm super excited to see what's next from ARRMA 👀. Think they've started a Killer new option for truly gnarly terrain and BIG spot bashing options. Really appreciate it Brother!!!! 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 "I'm super excited to see what's next from ARRMA" - always working and now we have an all new platform to play with, exciting times
Hey Rich I was wondering what center diff weight oil do you use in your talion. I'm wanting to switch my oil out but I do not know which weight would work best. Thanks for your help and amazing video again!!!!
Thanks so much Adam 🤗!!!! I really need to keep a log on all my set-ups. Pretty sure I'm running 200k center on the Talion 🤔. I generally run 200-500k between my Talion and high powered Kraton's. 🍻😎💪👊👊
She's Luvin it 💪 👊If you didn't know any different you'd think it was a 6s rig the way it performs! Luv the Upgrades... I particularly interested in the Diff gaskets... I was Very Careful when I first took my F/R & C/D apart Luckily all my gaskets are still in one piece, but they don't look like they will last. These ones look nice quality Rich. Wonder if he sells them to any UK retailers. Have a nice weekend pal 👍
Thanks so much Jason 🤗!!!! This setup is way more nimble for sure 😱. TEKJO is out of Canada and sells on eBay. The first time I pulled my 8s center diff apart, my stock gasket ripped 👀. I might've been too fast with the disassembly. Stephanes's gaskets are made from a tougher material. They've been flawless in my 6s rigs. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 Thanks for the heads up Rich. 👍 Yeh... I heard/Saw few people ripping gaskets, so I opened diff's very gingerly, had a craft blade too.. I'm goona snag some of these to have ready for next time I take diff's apart..Hopefully shipping is fair... Only light items after all. Have a nice day mate 👍
I used a box cutter/utility knife 👍. Fresh blade works best. Simply cut downward from each side of the tabs at an angle. Cleaned up any remaining tab with my Dremel sanding drum 👍👍😎💪👊👊
Rich, you should set up a second camera on your trigger finger and have that as an inset in the corner of your videos, i'm sure people would love to see you feather, punch and brake
That was a killer run, Brother Rich! What a total animal 😎 I'm waiting on my Hobbywing motor to show up. Can't wait to try the 1100kv on a 31t pinion. I don't think I'll go with the shorter chassis just because I've already got $200 invested in the original M2C chassis. Do you think you will ever switch it back just for a final test when you are done with all your mods? It would be nice to see the performance difference between the two. Anyway, great stuff as usual. Bash on! 😎👍👊
Hi rich super-duper bashing that short chassis is amazing think i may order one. Do you think you could do a little video on How to mount it and all the mods you have to do. If you have time that would be so cool Speak to you soon mate Saul 👍👌✌️💪👊
Thanks Saul 🤗!!!! The only necessary mod is replacing the rear center driveshaft with another, shorter front shaft. The chassis will come as a kit with shorter M2C 7075 braces. It's a direct swap. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
How is the m2c chassis after bashing? Does it still bend? I really liked in your old videos after you are done doing these crazy bashes you used to show if there was any bending.
The chassis is scratched but straight as new 👌. Simply nothing to show. I did flip her on her side at the end, but there's no bendage to report. All the M2C chassis's flex for great handling, but return to form 😍. That's the difference between stamped aluminum and 7075 T6. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Love the videos man, watched all of the kraton 8s ones and going to use a lot of your knowledge in setting mine up when I get it. Do you think the 5687 is enough motor or would you recommend jumping to the 56113 and all of the headaches that that brings? I wanna run 50-60 mph in sand and really high demand terrain.
Thanks so much Trent 🤗!!!! I really like the available power of the 5687 1100 👍. I'm hitting 58-60mph with a 29T and temps have been great. That said, I've never ran anything bigger. There are intermediate size Leopard cans to consider too like the 5898 1100 🤔. I have the torque I need as is, but variety is always nice too. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Man i know ive said it before but i frikken love seeing it rain dirt after a jump haha seriously a brute.💪💪💪 does Tekjo(sorry if i spelled that wrong) make diff case gaskets for the 6s rigs too? Cuz you showed them n i realized how much i need them haha.awesome video man once again i love seeing her fly ✈as i do all your rigs.
Just depends mostly on mAh rating and driving style 👍. I'm getting about 20-25 minutes of harder driving with 2 6000mah Hobbystar 4s 100c hard pack Lipos. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Thanks so much Brother 😜!!!! I didn't do that on purpose 😱. Think I just didn't notice after cleaning and remounting. They've handled great on this platform 👌. Hope they hold up cuz I'm totally digging them 😍👍👍😎💪👊👊
Best tip I can give is level off midair and get off the throttle before touch down as much as possible. Simply takes time and practice. The more you can square up landings, the less strain on components. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 😎 I was thinking 1/4 plywood... Like your option even more 🎯 Ever had any breaks? I'm trying to balance lightweight and necessary durability as I will be putting it in the back of my minivan most days. Should be... L 50 H 30 W36 Seems to be the biggest I can fit... Any higher and the incline would be to quick?? (I could go H35??)
@@Dmac13131 I haven't had any breaks with 2 sheets and adequate cross bracing 👍. The panel board is actually quite durable, just not water tolerant. You have to countersink the screws for them to sit flush, but it doesn't splinter like plywood. 30" is plenty tall enough to get launched. Mine is 30" x 60" x 40" wide. 😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 I literally have the same van as you 😎, and the most length I thought I could get in is 50....your able to get L 60 and W 40 with just folding the 3rd row? And you used plywood for the side tho? (how thick)? Appreciate
The Mega Outcast is 1/2" longer in front to accommodate the Max4 combo. The overall length should be very close to the Crusher 😍. That rig handled awesome.
Hey wanted to ask a question got a arrma kraton 6s and when I accelerate hard it slips something and doesn't go anywhere really but when I accelerate slower it hooks up and goes well, just wondering if you or anyone else has this problem thought it might be the motor mesh or something as had all diffs out and fully rebuilt using extra shims,it was the same before I did any work on it so don't know what's happening,would be great if u could help me thanks gaz
I'm not certain, but it sounds like one of the input cups may have come loose 🤔. If the grub screw comes loose, the cup can spin freely with no drive to either the front or rear on harder throttle. If you're getting grinding on harder throttle, I'd think the gears are slipping somehow. The mesh would have to be pretty loose to slip, but it's possible. That'll usually pit the gears badly, especially the pinion. 😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 thanks for the reply,I will try the input drive cups and make sure they are tight, don't know if u have heard of something called coging which can do a similar thing, anyway thanks for the help, great vids by the way cheers gaz from the UK 👍
Could I ask you a question about what diff oil u use in each diff running 50000 rear 200000 middle and 80000 front and front wheels still bloon bad just wondering what you use, would help me out big time, great vids found u through Kevin talbot thanks gaz 😉
Hey Gav 🤗. I'm running 500k front, 20 million cst center, and 100k rear. Seems to work great overall. Definitely helps control ballooning to the fronts. I'd still recommend venting the tires also. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 thanks for your reply will give it a try I have just vented my tyres and helped alot, keep up the good work love watching the vids all the way in the uk 👍👌😉
Thanks Brother 🤗!!!! I used the plastic packaging mount the GoPro's come mounted on with both 30lb rated Gorilla mounting tape reinforced with multiple strips of regular Gorilla tape. 😎💪👊👊
Hey Rich! So now that you have the 8s Kraton mostly sorted out and running as well as the 6s 1/8 scale version, what's your all in cost? Seems like you'd near $2k? Fun as it may be, I'm having a hard time seeing the value proposition here...I've had my eye on 1/5 scale rigs and at this point I'm leaning Xmaxx:) You ever run one? Bash on.👍
Hey Steven 🤗!!!! I think 2k is a bit inflated 🤔. Truck is 900$, electronics 330$, and M2C Crusher chassis/brace kit yet to be established (225-250$ ish 🤔). Motor mount 75$. This rig will outperform an XMaxx. It handles amazing and doesn't flip over at speed. No limit on battery sizes either 👍. It still comes down to preference obviously. I've bashed the XMaxx and it's simply not for me. This rig is in a league of it's own. I've yet to see a larger scale RC perform with the capability this thing has. Regardless, larger scale rigs are pricier. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
Rich I been cleaning my rigs with simple green hosing them off then wd40 them what should I do about the bearings after using wd40? Is there a way to lubricate them with out taking them out
I also use 50/50 water and simple Green mix 😍. I use a combination of traditional WD-40 (on the metals and hinge points) and their Silicone spray specifically on all my bearings. I will clean and oil my bearings during maintenance, but the Silicone keeps them smooth and lubed after wash downs. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
I'm impressed with it's durability overall, but don't like the handling. It's too bouncy and top heavy for my taste. I like being able to drift at speeds without flipping. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Rich that SWB is a monster seems like you can’t keep the thing one two wheels. 😂😂. Absolutely sick back flip into the water hole 😱😱👍👍👊🏻👊🏻. Killer bash with that rig.👊🏻👊🏻. Why the Xmaxx tires are you going through tires and did you not like the duratrax set or the stock?
Thanks so much Brother 😜!!!! The stock tires are fine, but mine are starting to get a bit soft and tattered from gravel and rock bashes. The Duratrax Six Packs work great, but they're a bit hard and add 1.5 lbs 👀. The XMaxx tires have superior traction and sidewall support 👍. They only weigh like 20-30 grams more per wheel, yet are a touch taller for better speeds and rotation in the air. 🍻😎💪👊👊
There's no question it wheelies way better with this shorter Crusher chassis 👍. It'll still get the power down just fine. I was just pulling more wheelies for fun 😜🤙🤙😎💪👊👊
I run Mostly Hobbystar 4800mah 50c 6s hard packs from RCJuice. They have several larger mAh 75-100c discharge packs as well if you want longer run times. I use the compact 6s packs for weight savings with crisp handling and bigger jumps. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 I'm kinda a noob in terms of what the battery's indicate. What's the difference? I see some lipos that say 30C and some say 80C like the 6s lipos. What's the difference
@@ulisesh2727 that's the discharge rating. The higher the C rating, the less IR or "internal resistance". I personally never use below 50c and prefer 75-100c. Too low and you put increased strain on the ESC itself. Higher C rated packs are typically faster. ARRMA has a minimum 35C rating for their 6s stuff and I believe 50c for the Kraton 8s. 👍
That really depends 🤔. The M2C Crusher 8s chassis kit hasn't been officially released or priced yet. With truck + these electronics and upgrades, I'm thinking total cost is around 1600$ give or take. The end result is a complete Beast 😱👍👍😎💪👊👊
That thing looks like it could really use some air-filled, bead-locked radials instead of that foam-filled nonsense. I've always hated how RC tires balloon out like that, but now there are options that are more in line with IRL tire tech. Fiberglass-belted radial RC tires are the wave of the future, and the tech is developing quite rapidly.
Tires are such a personal preference thing 🤔. Truth is I absolutely love how the truck handled after simply venting these and taping over the rim holes (and tuning the diffs). I've had 3 sets of belted bash tires and don't really like any of them for pure bashing. They're fast and hold their form, but too stiff and damn heavy for my style of driving. I prefer controlled ballooning with good pliability. Prolines recent attempt with weak removable hexs was a failure. Maybe not for their sales #'s, but for true bashing performance. Hopefully we'll see a lighter MFT option with better pliability. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Yeah it took a good sideways smack 😱. I did find my homemade Reeper body support extension had cracked 👀. It's made of thin PVC type plastic, but my body held up great. 👍👍😎💪👊👊
No I'm now running a Hobbywing 5687 1100kv and Max5 with 29T. I upgraded a few videos back. The stock system was fast geared up, just didn't have the brute torque I really wanted.🍻😎💪👊👊
love the puddle landings! Xmaxx tires are great

you really send it.... great work and if the kraton 8s came out of the box this strong and fast id buy one but like those traxxas tires on that arrma vehicle traxxas got a lot right with the xmaxx and still best basher, in good hands, for the money our of the box. IMO, of course. what you and the guys making the chassis have done for this vehicle is amazing... great work to you and the after marketers.
Thanks so much Brother 👊!!! The Kraton 8s did much better with simple gear and tuning changes 👍. Still didn't have Crazy torque, but great speed and handling with efficient electronics. ARRMA did a great job with this new release overall. The M2C options really transform her to a whole new level. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 another level for sure.... KUTGW
I'm hoping K8S V2 will turn out something like this 👌 what a titan of a truck 💪
Such a sick bash Rich!
This is absolutely a great video!
Thanks my friend 🤗. This was the original "Outcast 8s" before ARRMA released theirs. Such a Killer platform. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Another bad ass video 💪🏼💪🏼
Really like these 8s vids Rich 👍☝️
Yet again......Perfection!👍
What an absolute incredible build! What you’ve done with help from Mitch and all the adjustments you’ve made quite possibly makes this one of the best rigs out there imo! The wheelies for days, and how stable they are. Totally awesome. The “hole in one” and the slow mo at the end, that was just fricken awesome! The edits were superb, love how you went from parking lot to dirt track to sand then ramps etc. really was an awesome touch. Did you hit that small shack? I couldn’t exactly tell, nonetheless the whole video was just so cool to watch!! You’re absolutely killin it Rich! Really enjoying all the recent videos on this new build!
“Traxxas got this right” lol!! 😉
Thanks so very much Brother 🤗!!!! This rig may be one of the sickest bigger rigs out there 🤔. I never imagined a rig this size being able to launch so far and handle so Killer on just about every surface. The core ARRMA parts and drivetrain have been flawless. The towers, bulkheads, and base platform have been incredible 👀. These test runs were ridiculously fun 😜. Perfect weather and tons of space to rip around!!! Yes, I smacked that announcers stand pretty hard 😱. Came off my line and scrubbed speed off the jump. This rig has taken way more abuse than I thought was possible. Still running original arms, links, etc. Really appreciate the kind words my friend 👍. Hoping guys will love this SWB Crusher setup like I have. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊
Wow Rich it looks and Goes Bad Ass 😱😱😱 Friggin Love your Bashing Vids ❤ Really enjoyed every minute of this as I always do, Have a fantastic weekend Brother, RC FRIENDS FOR LIFE 👍😍😎👍
Thanks so much Tony 🤗!!!! Truly appreciate the kind words and support Brother 👊. Hope all is well my friend. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
Silky smooth Rich👍👍👍🍻
“Hole in one baby!”
Epic splashdown
Great vid 👍👍 it’s all about the shocks, chassis awesome 👍👍
EPIC bash with the M2C Crusher chassis bro Rich. I can't stress it enough how awesome and doubled the Fun this platform is. Genius wizard Mitch killed it with this build man. 1:38 was a money jump, perfect bucket! Was like a sumo wrestler jumped in the pool. Splash!! LOL 😂😂. Can definitely see a big improvement those Pistons and the combination of the droops mod made. Less to zero bounce 😱😍🤗👌👍. Those were some huge Aires bro. Very impressive to watch considering her size weight this Beast have. Wicked double BF. ' well, Traxxas got this right' LOL 😂😂. Right amount of ballooning for sure. Buddy of mine trying to get rid of a set, might snag them then LOL 😂😜. Sweet close up shot of the Pistons bro. Tekjo gasket looks killer too. Well done brother. EPIC bash!!
Thanks so much brother Chris 🤗!!!! That splashdown was sumo bellyflop style 😜🤣🤣. Had such a Killer time rippin through those puddles and at the Lake beach 🥰🥰🥰. Big Girl is a rocket now and feels super plush with the pistons and XMaxx wheels 😱. I made certain to tape my rim holes the 2nd time out. Pretty sure you'd dig them Bro 👍. I'd grab that set from your buddy. Perfect ballooning and great control with this wide platform. She flips so effortlessly now. I'm super excited to see what's next from ARRMA 👀. Think they've started a Killer new option for truly gnarly terrain and BIG spot bashing options. Really appreciate it Brother!!!! 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 "I'm super excited to see what's next from ARRMA" - always working and now we have an all new platform to play with, exciting times
@@jasondearden1394 most definitely. keep up the amazing work 🍻😎💪👊👊
That thing looks badass with that body, way nicer than stock or factory one.
Dam brother , u really have perfected the new kraton or what are u going to call it cause this thing is a BEASTE !!!! NOW !! 👍👍
Thanks Justin 🤗!!!!. This is closer to what I'd hoped for. Loving this setup 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
Love your videos
Could you please make a video showing how to fit traxxas or other than stock wheels ?
Epic as always ❤️👊😀
what a MACHINE!! 👊👊
Hey Rich I was wondering what center diff weight oil do you use in your talion. I'm wanting to switch my oil out but I do not know which weight would work best. Thanks for your help and amazing video again!!!!
Thanks so much Adam 🤗!!!! I really need to keep a log on all my set-ups. Pretty sure I'm running 200k center on the Talion 🤔. I generally run 200-500k between my Talion and high powered Kraton's. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 Thank you for the help!!!
She's Luvin it 💪 👊If you didn't know any different you'd think it was a 6s rig the way it performs! Luv the Upgrades... I particularly interested in the Diff gaskets... I was Very Careful when I first took my F/R & C/D apart Luckily all my gaskets are still in one piece, but they don't look like they will last. These ones look nice quality Rich. Wonder if he sells them to any UK retailers. Have a nice weekend pal 👍
Thanks so much Jason 🤗!!!! This setup is way more nimble for sure 😱. TEKJO is out of Canada and sells on eBay. The first time I pulled my 8s center diff apart, my stock gasket ripped 👀. I might've been too fast with the disassembly. Stephanes's gaskets are made from a tougher material. They've been flawless in my 6s rigs. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 Thanks for the heads up Rich. 👍 Yeh... I heard/Saw few people ripping gaskets, so I opened diff's very gingerly, had a craft blade too.. I'm goona snag some of these to have ready for next time I take diff's apart..Hopefully shipping is fair... Only light items after all. Have a nice day mate 👍
Awesome bash session cool hole in one - how do manage when you go down to a 3s edition lol
What a beast!
Thanks Brother 😜!!!! This rig has built up to another level 👀. Just a rush to bash this Big Girl 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
how did you cut out the traxxas hexes ? what did you use to remove the little traxxas nubs ? I have always hated that proprietary crap.
I used a box cutter/utility knife 👍. Fresh blade works best. Simply cut downward from each side of the tabs at an angle. Cleaned up any remaining tab with my Dremel sanding drum 👍👍😎💪👊👊
When you get the chance can you make a video on how to jump and land an rc car?
Rich, you should set up a second camera on your trigger finger and have that as an inset in the corner of your videos, i'm sure people would love to see you feather, punch and brake
@@jasondearden1394 That would be magnificent!
That was a killer run, Brother Rich! What a total animal 😎 I'm waiting on my Hobbywing motor to show up. Can't wait to try the 1100kv on a 31t pinion. I don't think I'll go with the shorter chassis just because I've already got $200 invested in the original M2C chassis. Do you think you will ever switch it back just for a final test when you are done with all your mods? It would be nice to see the performance difference between the two. Anyway, great stuff as usual. Bash on! 😎👍👊
Great video 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi rich super-duper bashing that short chassis is amazing think i may order one.
Do you think you could do a little video on How to mount it and all the mods you have to do.
If you have time that would be so cool
Speak to you soon mate
Saul 👍👌✌️💪👊
Thanks Saul 🤗!!!! The only necessary mod is replacing the rear center driveshaft with another, shorter front shaft. The chassis will come as a kit with shorter M2C 7075 braces. It's a direct swap. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
How is the m2c chassis after bashing? Does it still bend? I really liked in your old videos after you are done doing these crazy bashes you used to show if there was any bending.
The chassis is scratched but straight as new 👌. Simply nothing to show. I did flip her on her side at the end, but there's no bendage to report. All the M2C chassis's flex for great handling, but return to form 😍. That's the difference between stamped aluminum and 7075 T6. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Love the videos man, watched all of the kraton 8s ones and going to use a lot of your knowledge in setting mine up when I get it. Do you think the 5687 is enough motor or would you recommend jumping to the 56113 and all of the headaches that that brings? I wanna run 50-60 mph in sand and really high demand terrain.
Thanks so much Trent 🤗!!!! I really like the available power of the 5687 1100 👍. I'm hitting 58-60mph with a 29T and temps have been great. That said, I've never ran anything bigger. There are intermediate size Leopard cans to consider too like the 5898 1100 🤔. I have the torque I need as is, but variety is always nice too. 🍻😎💪👊👊
any idea when m2c will be selling this shorter chassi ? great videos ! always entertained and well informed! keep up the great work !
Thanks so much John 🤗!!!! Mitch had mentioned possibly by this weekend I believe 👀. I'll check back with him about it tomorrow when he's awake. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Man i know ive said it before but i frikken love seeing it rain dirt after a jump haha seriously a brute.💪💪💪 does Tekjo(sorry if i spelled that wrong) make diff case gaskets for the 6s rigs too? Cuz you showed them n i realized how much i need them haha.awesome video man once again i love seeing her fly ✈as i do all your rigs.
Great bash!!!
I have always wondered, how's the batterylife driving like this. It's been 25 years since I was in the hobby so things have changed a little bit :D
Just depends mostly on mAh rating and driving style 👍. I'm getting about 20-25 minutes of harder driving with 2 6000mah Hobbystar 4s 100c hard pack Lipos. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 That's great news! I thought that you could only get 5-10 minutes of that :D
Hey
great Viideo ,is the Punch of Level 5 on Esc ?.
Yes indeed Mike 🤗. I ran punch 5 with the stock Firma ESC and with this Max5 setup. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Great video man! I was just wondering if you have the 2 tires you have mount on in reverse is on purpose? Does it affect handling?
Thanks so much Brother 😜!!!! I didn't do that on purpose 😱. Think I just didn't notice after cleaning and remounting. They've handled great on this platform 👌. Hope they hold up cuz I'm totally digging them 😍👍👍😎💪👊👊
I’d love to see a video on some tips and tricks on how to properly land (and not break) your rc.
Best tip I can give is level off midair and get off the throttle before touch down as much as possible. Simply takes time and practice. The more you can square up landings, the less strain on components. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Is your local hobby shop Fast Track Hobbies?
It sure is Ed 🍻😎💪👊👊
Quick question tho,
How thick plywood you use for your wood ramp top sheet?
I'm using 2 layers of 3/16" tempered panel hardboard from Home Depot 👍. The top layer is rough side up for traction. 😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 😎
I was thinking 1/4 plywood... Like your option even more 🎯
Ever had any breaks?
I'm trying to balance lightweight and necessary durability as I will be putting it in the back of my minivan most days.
Should be...
L 50 H 30 W36
Seems to be the biggest I can fit... Any higher and the incline would be to quick?? (I could go H35??)
@@Dmac13131 I haven't had any breaks with 2 sheets and adequate cross bracing 👍. The panel board is actually quite durable, just not water tolerant. You have to countersink the screws for them to sit flush, but it doesn't splinter like plywood. 30" is plenty tall enough to get launched. Mine is 30" x 60" x 40" wide. 😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 I literally have the same van as you 😎, and the most length I thought I could get in is 50....your able to get L 60 and W 40 with just folding the 3rd row?
And you used plywood for the side tho? (how thick)?
Appreciate
💥 blast from the past! Such a cool truck, is the crusher chassis the one being used on the Mega Outcast package?
The Mega Outcast is 1/2" longer in front to accommodate the Max4 combo. The overall length should be very close to the Crusher 😍. That rig handled awesome.
Nice :) just love how it handles. i need a short chassi, already got the wheels :)
Thanks Brother 👊!!!! The handling is truly amazing 😍. Mitch should have these on the website soon. 🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
What ramps do you use bro?
Hi hast du ritzel verändert oder hat er Serie die power
Look out for little splits in those tyres after every run pal! Another sweet bash dude 👊🏻
Thanks Brother 👊!!!! I'll definitely keep an eye on the sidewalls and glue beads 👀. Appreciate it. 😎💪👊👊
Hey wanted to ask a question got a arrma kraton 6s and when I accelerate hard it slips something and doesn't go anywhere really but when I accelerate slower it hooks up and goes well, just wondering if you or anyone else has this problem thought it might be the motor mesh or something as had all diffs out and fully rebuilt using extra shims,it was the same before I did any work on it so don't know what's happening,would be great if u could help me thanks gaz
I'm not certain, but it sounds like one of the input cups may have come loose 🤔. If the grub screw comes loose, the cup can spin freely with no drive to either the front or rear on harder throttle. If you're getting grinding on harder throttle, I'd think the gears are slipping somehow. The mesh would have to be pretty loose to slip, but it's possible. That'll usually pit the gears badly, especially the pinion. 😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 thanks for the reply,I will try the input drive cups and make sure they are tight, don't know if u have heard of something called coging which can do a similar thing, anyway thanks for the help, great vids by the way cheers gaz from the UK 👍
hey rich what pinion do you run with your hobby wing setup thanks👍
Hey Vinny. I'm running a 29T on this 5687 1100kv 👍. Temps are great. She's good for 58-60mph as is. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
Rich Duperbash could you send me a link to the pinion ? Thanks love ur vids by the way!!!👍👊
Could I ask you a question about what diff oil u use in each diff running 50000 rear 200000 middle and 80000 front and front wheels still bloon bad just wondering what you use, would help me out big time, great vids found u through Kevin talbot thanks gaz 😉
Hey Gav 🤗. I'm running 500k front, 20 million cst center, and 100k rear. Seems to work great overall. Definitely helps control ballooning to the fronts. I'd still recommend venting the tires also. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 thanks for your reply will give it a try I have just vented my tyres and helped alot, keep up the good work love watching the vids all the way in the uk 👍👌😉
Awesome bashing session dude! Impressive handling with that chassis. How die you mount that GoPro?
Thanks Brother 🤗!!!! I used the plastic packaging mount the GoPro's come mounted on with both 30lb rated Gorilla mounting tape reinforced with multiple strips of regular Gorilla tape. 😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 That explains! Mine always keep flying off. :-D
Keep up the good work!
Hey Rich! So now that you have the 8s Kraton mostly sorted out and running as well as the 6s 1/8 scale version, what's your all in cost? Seems like you'd near $2k? Fun as it may be, I'm having a hard time seeing the value proposition here...I've had my eye on 1/5 scale rigs and at this point I'm leaning Xmaxx:) You ever run one? Bash on.👍
Hey Steven 🤗!!!! I think 2k is a bit inflated 🤔. Truck is 900$, electronics 330$, and M2C Crusher chassis/brace kit yet to be established (225-250$ ish 🤔). Motor mount 75$. This rig will outperform an XMaxx. It handles amazing and doesn't flip over at speed. No limit on battery sizes either 👍. It still comes down to preference obviously. I've bashed the XMaxx and it's simply not for me. This rig is in a league of it's own. I've yet to see a larger scale RC perform with the capability this thing has. Regardless, larger scale rigs are pricier. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
Rich I been cleaning my rigs with simple green hosing them off then wd40 them what should I do about the bearings after using wd40? Is there a way to lubricate them with out taking them out
I also use 50/50 water and simple Green mix 😍. I use a combination of traditional WD-40 (on the metals and hinge points) and their Silicone spray specifically on all my bearings. I will clean and oil my bearings during maintenance, but the Silicone keeps them smooth and lubed after wash downs. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊
If you dont mind sharing, what electronics and gearing are you running?
No problem Brother 👍. I'm running a Hobbywing 5687 1100kv with 29T and Max5. 🍻😎💪👊👊
What do you think about the xmaxx
I'm impressed with it's durability overall, but don't like the handling. It's too bouncy and top heavy for my taste. I like being able to drift at speeds without flipping. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Rich Duperbash ok thank you 🍻 😎💪👊👊
Rich that SWB is a monster seems like you can’t keep the thing one two wheels. 😂😂. Absolutely sick back flip into the water hole 😱😱👍👍👊🏻👊🏻. Killer bash with that rig.👊🏻👊🏻. Why the Xmaxx tires are you going through tires and did you not like the duratrax set or the stock?
Thanks so much Brother 😜!!!! The stock tires are fine, but mine are starting to get a bit soft and tattered from gravel and rock bashes. The Duratrax Six Packs work great, but they're a bit hard and add 1.5 lbs 👀. The XMaxx tires have superior traction and sidewall support 👍. They only weigh like 20-30 grams more per wheel, yet are a touch taller for better speeds and rotation in the air. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Do you find it wheelies better with the swb chassis over the long ?
There's no question it wheelies way better with this shorter Crusher chassis 👍. It'll still get the power down just fine. I was just pulling more wheelies for fun 😜🤙🤙😎💪👊👊
Rich Duperbash it looks like it take the wheelies so smooth and perfect
Sir, what battery do you use for your Kraton 6s V3. I need some good lasting ones
I run Mostly Hobbystar 4800mah 50c 6s hard packs from RCJuice. They have several larger mAh 75-100c discharge packs as well if you want longer run times. I use the compact 6s packs for weight savings with crisp handling and bigger jumps. 🍻😎💪👊👊
@@richduperbash2966 I'm kinda a noob in terms of what the battery's indicate. What's the difference? I see some lipos that say 30C and some say 80C like the 6s lipos. What's the difference
Like is it better to run higher C ratings?
@@ulisesh2727 that's the discharge rating. The higher the C rating, the less IR or "internal resistance". I personally never use below 50c and prefer 75-100c. Too low and you put increased strain on the ESC itself. Higher C rated packs are typically faster. ARRMA has a minimum 35C rating for their 6s stuff and I believe 50c for the Kraton 8s. 👍
@@richduperbash2966 Ty! I love your channel man! You're like the only dude who actually launches rc's with no worries 🤣👍
What’s it cost to get a duperbash edition 6s8s?cheers🇳🇿
That really depends 🤔. The M2C Crusher 8s chassis kit hasn't been officially released or priced yet. With truck + these electronics and upgrades, I'm thinking total cost is around 1600$ give or take. The end result is a complete Beast 😱👍👍😎💪👊👊
Mad skills. I wish I could drive like that 😂
Thanks Brother 😊🤙🤙😎💪👊👊
Just subbed you killing it brother
Now there's the xmaxx killer!
You nailed it Mark 🤗!!!! I don't want to ruffle feathers with the Traxxas faithfuls, but this setup is the real deal 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊
That thing looks like it could really use some air-filled, bead-locked radials instead of that foam-filled nonsense. I've always hated how RC tires balloon out like that, but now there are options that are more in line with IRL tire tech. Fiberglass-belted radial RC tires are the wave of the future, and the tech is developing quite rapidly.
Tires are such a personal preference thing 🤔. Truth is I absolutely love how the truck handled after simply venting these and taping over the rim holes (and tuning the diffs). I've had 3 sets of belted bash tires and don't really like any of them for pure bashing. They're fast and hold their form, but too stiff and damn heavy for my style of driving. I prefer controlled ballooning with good pliability. Prolines recent attempt with weak removable hexs was a failure. Maybe not for their sales #'s, but for true bashing performance. Hopefully we'll see a lighter MFT option with better pliability. 🍻😎💪👊👊
I’m surprised that building hit didn’t break anything
Yeah it took a good sideways smack 😱. I did find my homemade Reeper body support extension had cracked 👀. It's made of thin PVC type plastic, but my body held up great. 👍👍😎💪👊👊
Rich Duperbash shows the quality
Hey Great vid, could you try FPV on this truck! cheers.

Not the stock motor ?
No I'm now running a Hobbywing 5687 1100kv and Max5 with 29T. I upgraded a few videos back. The stock system was fast geared up, just didn't have the brute torque I really wanted.🍻😎💪👊👊
