"EXPLOSIVE!" NEW 12s ARRMA MEGA Kraton with Max4 70125!!!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ก.ค. 2024
- Huge thanks to M2C Racing for creating another Monster!!! Guys asked and they delivered. Finally a chassis to accommodate the massive Hobbywing Max4 70125 combo and experience power like never before. Happy 4th of July to all my RC Brothers out there!!!
Running 42/39 gearing. (Sounded like I said 40T Saga Custom pinion)😂. She could probably take a smaller spur no problem. Still waiting for my programmer to turn up the punch and BEC. Steering was a bit sluggish at the stock 6V. Still running an older Hobbystar 6912 70kg Brutal torque servo that is rated for 7.4V. Lastly, always tape your connectors. I partially fried a QS8 when it came mostly unplugged. This is a lot of voltage. Don't be that guy. Gorilla tape for the win. 🍻
That's so crazy, on the pavement it just sounds like it's wheel spinning, extremely fast
I ve done it on the qs8 also. The Xlx2 1100 combo in the k8 had some arcing marks inside just slightly from being touch to loose. Swapped it out to be safe, just spread the prongs open from the center with a small allen key. its like fighting a bear to get them off if you adjust it too much 😂😅
Hi Rick. What pinion and spur gear must i use on my kraton v5 with stock electronic, if i want to use wheels that are 11 cm wide and 17 cm high? Can i use orginal pinion and spur gear? Hope you can help:) Maybe tell me what size i must use?:)))
@@tittentei7331I usually recommend a 16T Robinson Racing (#1216) pinion with the stock spur and stock 2050kv motor. That does great with stock sized Kraton wheels. If the wheels are much taller or heavier, you may want to gear down to a 15T. Truck comes with a 12T which is very conservative. I don't recommend larger wheels. Too much stress on the gears and other components.
@@richduperbash2966 Thank you very much Rick:) Yes they are very big so i think i gonna sell them. :) Great video btw!
That was a super awesome shakedown run Rich those 57’s on the asphalt sounded wicked nice to see that they held up. Might have to give them another shot. running 12 S is just insane. Runs cool unless you get ridiculous with gearing. Thanks for the mention brother👍 what an awesome truck and that endbell support that M2c came up with and how they stiffened the front of that chassis is perfect for that big can motor anyway brother awesome run happy July 4th 💪💪👍✌️👊
Thanks so very much Brother Aldo 🤗. I was chopping at the bit to build the Mega after seeing you rip yours 😱🚀🚀. What a friggin Monster!!! 12s is ridiculous, but I'm getting good run times and great temps considering it's hot and dry as hell here 😂. The 57's seem great so far. Just avoiding any major diffing out and trying not to get too crazy with the throttle. The end bell support and steel front stiffener is genius 👌. Huge props to Mitch and Avery once again and big thanks to you Bro for all the tips with this build 👊. Waiting on a programmer to advance the punch and BEC. Not sure you can adjust it manually. Hope you had a great 4th of July!!! 🍻😎💪👊👊
I always really appreciate that you explain your setups man, you speak about your diff and shock weights and alot of interesting details. Keep doing that! Happy 4th!
Thanks so much Shawn 🤗. Happy bashing Brother and hope you had a great 4th 🍻
Seismic activity reported in NorCal … no that’s just Rich jumping the Kraton again 😎
LMAO 😂
That’s a whole lot of truck 😁
Sounds insane! You can hear the power when you fly by!
Goooooooddddd lord! What a monster!! 12s It sounded crazy and scary TBH 😳😜😂. Awesome build breakdown and maiden run brother Rich! I'm glad you're feeling much better! Glad to see you back out there again! killer innovation by Mitch and Avery 😍💪. Definitely elevated the Kraton platform to New heights and excitement. Mine is completely done and ready. I'm super pumped and looking forward to getting mine out here very soon. Awesome sesh my friend
Thanks so very much Brother Chris 🤗. Man it felt awesome to finally get this build done and back out for a little rip. 12s with this huge system is friggin Nuts 😂. Love the sound of the MX57's trying to find traction 😍. Mitch and Avery did a brilliant job with this and props to Aldo for helping work out the kinks at ARRMAGEDDON. Can't wait to see you rip yours Brother!!! Supposed to hit 114F today so I'm not bashing 😂. Have a great weekend my friend. 🍻😎💪👊👊
Love the way the tires sound spinning on the asphalt. She’s an absolute beast.
Thank you Brother 😁. She's a squealer on hard throttle no doubt 😱😂🔥🔥
Insane and just getting started. 36 ponds of muscle. Extreme monster bash. Get yourself on the bench and all fixed up so you can repeat!!!
Thank you Brother 🤗. So excited about this Beast!!! Can't wait to do more tuning and get her back out again soon. Much appreciated my friend. 🍻
I can’t wait until mega outcast, I know it’s soon.
WOW. That is just simply awesome..! Can't wait to get my Kraton 8s so I can also starting wrenching on it and upgrading it.
Finally!!!! The power this size Kraton deserves
As expected, the 12s hits different! It's awesome!
What an absolute UNIT
that thing is a tank! Nice rippin as always Rich! 🤙🏼🤟🏼🚀
Haven't seen you use that bash spot in years seems like! Thanks for making my Friday with another duperbash production!
Thanks so much Jeremy 🤗. It's been a long time since I've hit that spot. So glad it was still there!!! Hopefully build it up a bit soon 🍻🚀🚀
That is bananas. It's smoking the tires on the concrete at 60mph, lol.
I’ve been waiting patiently for you or Eric to put out a vid on these. Love Aldo’s vids but the way you do breakdown vids are second to absolutely no one!
Oh yes! 12s duperbash🤩 This is so entertaining🤩 I can't wait for the next upload😎 Greetings from Norway🍻
Thanks so very much Henning 🤗. What a complete animal on 12s 😱!!! Hope all is well Brother 🍻
Gah leee. Flipping love the tire screeching sound.
Glad you're feeling better, Rich. Stay healthy and safe out there💪🏻🍻
That motor is a fatty! I've been out of the loop for a while but had some time to catch up tonight and glad I'm here.
@@crimsonfancythanks so much Brother 😁. Yeah the 70125 is friggin huge 👀. Much bigger than the standard 1/5 motors.
Tires sound like they are hanging on for dear life 😮
Glad to see you back..
Thank you Brother 🤗
That thing is nuts! Great video. Glad you’re feeling better. 👍
Thanks so very much Steve 🤗. Truly appreciate it Brother!!!
great run just a monster amount of toque happy 4 duperbash
Thanks Brother, the torque is ridiculous 😂. Happy 4th my friend!!!
Glad your back making content 👍🔥
Thank you Brother 🤗
Sounds so sweet Ric😃
Wow wow!!! That kraton sounds amazing brother 💪🏽 💨
Thanks so much Brother 🤗. The sound is nuts for sure 😂
Total beastmode 🔥
I'm glad you're ok and I'm super happy you're back posting
Truly appreciate it Brother 🙏
Wow great test run. Like to see a speed test. I would get a fan on motor too. With you guys having that dry weather glad you didnt have any lipo issues or over heating issues.
Thanks so much Brother 🤗
What an absolute animal Mega Kraton on 12s....she looking spicy for sure, this kit from M2C is so well put together and throght out Mitch and Avery just nailed it 🔥😍🔥😍
Great run here my bro, love them power slides that just look so slick with the LCG Kraton slides like no other 🎯🤟
Killed it my friend
Thanks so very much Brother Dennis 😍. Loving this absolute Monster creation from Mitch and Avery!!! Can't wait to do a bit more tuning and get her completely dialed. Hope you and your family are doing ok. Definitely been in my thoughts and prayers Brother 🙏🙏
Super awesome video!!! Great rip that rig is a beast 👊🏼👍🏼
Thank you Brother 🤗. She's a handful with this insane power 😱👊🤙🤙
Glad to have ya back, looks like you brought a monster w/ ya haha killer build dude!
Thanks so very much Brother 🤗. Starting to feel like I can do more now. Just gotta be careful the next month. Truly appreciate it 🙏
Well done..Hope you get to recover quick man!
Thanks so very much Juston 🤗
Dam Rich! What an animal 😱😱 Definitely next level on 12s!
Thanks Brother Aaron 🤗. She feels like a big girl rocket now 😱🤣🤣
That thing is sick man! Some good fresh content. Ballooning belted tires.. I love it! Glad you're back. That surgery is no fun.. been there.
Thanks very much Brother 😁. I'd been waiting to build this monster since Aldo tested the first prototype at ARRMAGEDDON with Avery 🚀🚀. Finally feeling better, just not lifting ramps or anything too heavy. This Big girl is heavy enough 😂
Love the sound it makes. So smooth and I am sure you still need to dial it in.
Thanks Brother, I love the sound too 😍. Still waiting for a programmer to adjust the brake, punch, and BEC. Don't think you can adjust it manually like the smaller Hobbywing ESC'S. I'll get her dialed in soon 👌
Insane!
Been waiting for this one!!!
That thing is nutbar!! BEAST!!!
Glad surgery went all good heal up brother!
Thanks so much Brother 🤗. Truly appreciate it 🙏
You built a weapon man. Awsome video man.
Thanks so much Brother 🤗. Truly appreciate your QS8 soldering vids!!! Gave me the confidence to solder them fatties 😂. Hope you had a great 4th 🚀🚀
Awesome Bash!!! cant believe how low the temps were!! thanks for punishing the parts!!!
Thanks so very much Brother Avery for creating another Monster 😱🚀🚀. What a Beast!!! Hope you had a great 4th my friend 🍻
Good to see your doing ok and cool vid, i love my Kraton too, such a beasty Rig. More vids plz :D Keep on Bashing.
Thanks so very much Brother 🤗. It sucked having to take it so slow after surgery and being homebound. Grateful Big Girl turned out nice with the Mega conversion. Such an amazing platform 😍
That is an incredible piece of artwork brother keep up the great work
Thanks so much Randy 🤗. Truly appreciate it Brother 🍻
So awesome 🤩nice bro👌🏻
Thank you Brother 🤗🤙🤙
I guess that s what you call controlled chaos?! Holy Geez man, you whipped that thing around like a champ. Im pretty impressed with the temps considering those tires were broke loose the whole damn time. Love that bash spot and hope you are on the mend bro.
Thanks so very much Brother Phil 🤗. Big girl has gone full Beast mode with this setup!!! Super impressed with the temps considering the ambient heat and constant wheel spin 😱😂. Truly appreciate the kind words Brother. 🍻😎💪👊👊
It's um....Ahem....Not short of power!!! Mother of God that absolutely hammers!!!
Insane it all fits so neatly too. Go M2C!!! Heal up brother...no heavy lifting for a while....This truck included...She's a porker!!!
What up bro, hope all is well with your health. that was an awesome run to see that thing loop out from under itself is just unreal for how heavy it is. Can't wait to see it fly off the ramp. Cheers
Thanks so very much Brother 🤗. This rig has insane power, just needs to sink its teeth to find traction. Can't wait for some moisture in a wide open area 🚀🚀. I'll be ramping her as soon as I'm healthy enough to lift and move the ramps. Hopefully soon 🍻
@@richduperbash2966 Heck yeah man can't wait to see. Love watching your channel. Have a good holiday weekend.
Juuust the video I’ve been waiting for
Excellent run as always karma the best in the business
Thanks so much David 🤗
Whilst 100 degrees sounds horrible, it's pissing down in Britain and it feels like winter! I don't know which one I'd prefer to be honest. Great driving as always!
Thanks so much Chris 🤗. I'm ok with 100F, but past 105F and I'm wilting up like a dead flower 😂. I like a mix of sun and rain for traction, but our summers have been very dry the last 10 years. Hope it lets up Brother 🍻
Hell yea brother
Nice..😃👊✌
Monster😈K12 For Sure💪🏽, And Killer Vid Rich...🤩 🏆 Wishing You A Quick Recovery Brother...👍🏼💯
Thanks so very much Brother 🤗. Recovering well so far. Truly appreciate it 🍻
On the hot pavement those tires sound like sand paddles on wet sand at high speed 👍
Yeah these MX57's sound nuts with huge power 👀😂. Can't wait to hit some wet sand at the lake once the water levels drop again 😍
Bro! We won't be able to compete with that 😂. 50% more torque is insane!!! Can't wait to see it soon.
Big girl just got a little bigger Victor 😂. Can't wait to connect again soon Brother!!! Happy 4th 🚀🚀
Looking good, Rich! The Max4 is hard to understand it's size till you try to mount it to a RC. I have one in a dbxl-e and it looks big lol. Here is to a speedy recovery for you!!
Thanks so very much Brother 🤗. Slowly doing a little more lifting each week, just not straining myself. Can't move or load ramps yet. This combo is absolutely massive 😱. The fact that the motor is bigger than a coke can is insane 😂. I'm sure your Losi is putting the power to good use 🚀🚀. Happy 4th!!!
Man I bet you could get the dbxle to back flip with this monster setup...man a outcast mega is what I'm thinking!
Dang Rich it's a monster for sure
Slides around like a 6s does lol
Yeah it's crazy a 35+ lb monster can feel like a 6s 😂
I need a max 5 😅 dope vid rich
Thank you Brother 🤗. I still love the Max5. The Max4 is friggin Massive 👀
What a machine Rich! Man I need to get with the times. Both of my kratons are running the xlx2 with the 2028 can. I'd like to see someone compare the xlx2 vs the max4.
Hey Rich! finally ordered my kraton 8S, only one in stock in France ! now i'm waiting for the delivery guy! i just bought 3 arrma this year!😅
Congrats Brother 😱!!! Such an awesome platform with so much potential. 🍻
Hey Rich- no way you didn't add glue to those tires!!! Every belted tire i had, they rip apart if i don't add a 💩tone of glue to them. Hauling Ass & Flying High 😎
Thanks my Brother 🤗. Tires are a fickle thing. Some are glued proper, some aren't. Proline has stepped it up from what I can tell. My original MX57's (solid hex) had good beads, but busted a hex after the 2nd hard bash. These newer style with removable 24mm hexes have held awesome 💪. No bead or hex issues after multiple hard runs. That said, it's good practice to check your beads before each run. These tires go through hell and deserve a little attention. I add glue anytime I find a rock tear or blemish at a bead, but this set hasn't needed anything.
Awesome and extremely well-mannered. When is M2C releasing the kit?
Thanks Brother 🤗. Absolutely loving this big Beast. Think there's several different kit options already available on the M2C Racing website under the newly released area. 15% off most holidays too. Happy 4th my friend 🍻
12s 😮😂😂😂 very nice Bash 🤜🏻 🤛🏻 👍🏻 Bro.
Thanks so very much Brother 🍻🚀🚀
@@richduperbash2966 👍🏻😊
That’s absolutely insane mate, sounds like a fpv drone on the road. How are the diffs holding up ? Stock cases ?
Big girl sounds ridiculous with this 12s setup 😂. Diffs are holding just fine. Running an alloy ARRMA rear diff cup with the Vitavon bulkhead (forgot to mention in the vid). Should probably do the front too just to help keep screws in place and gears seated tight.
If you could only have one, Rich, 1/7 Kraton XL fully modded or this Mega Kraton? Thanks for sharing this epic build with us! Heal up soon
Thank you Brother 🙏. I'd probably pick the 1/7 Kraton XL for go anywhere bashing convenience. That said, there's no perfect RC for every situation. For gnarly rough terrain, the Mega Kraton is an absolute Monster 🤯. It's just a completely different experience ripping the large scales on big power.
@@richduperbash2966love it my friend! Thanks for the reply and for all your top tier content over the years 👊
Wow Rich glad you are doing better now brother. That thing is awesome great kraton build. Yeah Aldo is definitely the ming Salmi with 12S for dude 😂. One question are you still running the stock shock springs ? I'm looming for more stiff ones for my outcast 8S since it's heavier now with all the m2c stuff. Probably I should get the 7mm shock rods too. Thanks Rich and feel better
Thanks so very much Paul 🤗. Aldo is a meat pit maniac 😱🚀🚀. Still running stock springs on my 8s ARRMA's. Not sure if VG Racing makes them or not 🤔
@richduperbash2966 wow thanks rich. Yup he sure us. I'm happy with 8S power for me that's really all I need. Yeah I guess the stock springs can handle the extra weight for sure. 👍🤘👊
Add some baja 5b Front shocks. perfect size and are 10mm shocks instead of the Kratons 6mm i think
Thanks so much for the tip Brother 👊. I have some 30° North DNT ones I might try as well.
Do you think they'll make a Outcast chassis to let everyone else in on the fun with that coffee can motor? I bet that is still conservative gearing. I have my Outcast exb geared 39/39 on a Max 5 G2 760kv combo and is stays cool but I run 8s because the Backflips can't handle 12s and I'd rather have them than extra crashes, i mean power. I really like the RTR green and red Kraton and Outcast bodies more than the Black EXB ones. I ordered the Red for my EXB.
Yes indeed it looks like there's a Mega Outcast option as well 😱. Pretty certain I saw it on the M2C Racing website under "newly released". This 70125 could definitely take more than 42/39 gearing, probably with a smaller spur anyways. I love the different body colors available 😍 m2cracing.net/shop/shop.php#!/M2C-3830-MEGA-OUTCAST-FOUNDATION-KIT/p/673555717/category=0
Is there any need to extend the body posts to make up for the added length of the chassis?
You could probably modify the mounts 🤔. I kept it simple and ovaled the front and rear body holes 1/4" each using my Dremel. Went forward in the front and rearwards in the rear to make up the 1/2" difference.
I ran 12s through my K8 with the Max 5g2 and 800kv and toasted the rear diff spider gears in just 5 minutes. Anything special to keep those gears alive? That monster can must make heaps more torque than my 56118. Bad ass build and great walk through as always.
Thanks so very much Brother 🤗. I totally forgot to mention it in the vid, but I'm running the alloy ARRMA 8s diff cup in the rear. It allows you to threadlock both sides of the cup vs the stock plastic one. Likely does a better job of keeping all the gears seated properly with little chance of cup failure. 🍻 www.amainhobbies.com/arrma-kraton-outcast-8s-metal-differential-case-set-ara310975/p1238288
@@richduperbash2966 I appreciate the clarity! I’ll try picking up a pair and hopefully my diffs hold up. This video gets me hyped up to run mine on 12s!
@@stayunique91you bet Brother 👊. 12s is friggin awesome!!!
Hey Rich! Nice upgrade to the Kraton!😍. Can you please tell me how does the body fit the longer chassis? I didn't notice any modifications to the body mounting plates and fittings. If the chassis is longer, how can it still fit the factory body holes? Thanks man
Hey Brother 🤗. I simply ovaled the front and rear body holes with my Dremel about 1/4" in opposite directions to make up the 1/2" difference.
@@richduperbash2966 Simple and efficient 👍🏻😁. Thanks man!
Im running a spektrum firma 800kv with stock esc in my 8S kraton. Can you make that 12S ? With a esc upgrade ?
You probably can run the 800kv on 12s with an ESC upgrade so long as the gearing is right and you keep the motor around 150F max. Just be certain the ESC will allow 12s. 🍻
Awesome Video man! But how about your diffs? A friend of mine also build an Kraton 12s but the diffs died instantly!😢
Thank you Brother 😁. The gears and diffs can handle 12s power. The important part is ensuring all the bolts stay 100% snugged down particularly at the diff cups. Forgot to mention it, but I'm running an alloy ARRMA rear diff cup because you can threadlock the bolts from both sides, unlock the stock plastic cup.
@@richduperbash2966 interessting... my Mate runs a full vitavon build but the gears were braking instantly🙈🤧❤
@@cj910that sucks. Hopefully he's not missing something with the assembly steps or there's a tolerance issue in the machining.
On my Kraton 6s v2, I only get about 10 mins runtime with Zeee 3s 5200mAh (x2) while my Gensace 6s 5600mAh I get 45 min. Just surprised to see you running the Zeee's... Or anybody for that matter. 🙁
I've had very mixed luck with Gens Ace, mostly bad luck to be honest. They sent me several packs including premium "Basher" series awhile ago. Good power, but weak construction and short life span in the end. Been using Zeee packs for years now. Solid performance at a reasonable price with better longevity. I don't fall for overpriced packs. Complete waste of money with so many other options available.
California will probably pass regulations on RC power thanks to Rich
LMFAO 😂
A 12S rc produced for the sales market seems like the next step. Would be pricey. But why hasnt it been done ? No money in it ?
I'm not sure, but 12s could be dangerous in the wrong hands. Throttle control is a must with big weight and power. It's possible that liability for an overpowered RTR is a concern. The fun factor is next level regardless 😂
I know ur a doc..but whatever it is ur lifting I always ask for help now..
And coffee couple sips all black. Than throw it away..
Still waiting on a 1/5th typhon... Been like 2 or more years since the first 8s models? Got tired of waiting i got into a new hobby.
It’s a kraton XXL
Belted 57s Belted?.Unless you have some prototypes I think you are getting confused with mashers.
No you are correct Brother 👍. These are not belted like the Masher X HP's that I personally tested years ago pre release. The MX57's are a super durable anti-ballooning compound. There's a difference, my apologies 🍻
