I'd say get a new version of your rigs, and use your old rigs as parts for the new basher!! Fresh setup, some spares, and a new basher! I like videos like this because it's real. We've all been there. Never just bring one rc though!! Great vid, Guy!
I like the last part of your comment never bring just one RC though I did exactly that I brought two and they both broke and yes I am laughing while I am talk to texting this 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣
I had to save up for 6 months to get the big rock ( 3s )). When the rear driveshaft went weeeeeeeeeeee , saved up to get the metal ones. No more problems with that. They're definitely expensive and an investment ,, I've only been in the hobby about 2 years now and learning ALOT from y'all ,,, very much appreciate you. I found it less of a heartache to upgrade when there's a break ,,,, the Big Rock is normally always with me when I run at the mini BMX track ,, only thing around here decent. Smaller twucks like the Big Rock and 4 S Outcast loves it. The bigger twucks , X Max and 8 S EXB Outcast , pretty much laughing ,,, they clear the triples easy. LOL
This is a well said comment by the way. If you have only a few RCs then some of these upgrade breakages or breakage upgrades I think is technically how you worded it is a good way to go It's just at some point in time if you add up all of your expenses your bank account might cry a little bit You just need to determine if the smiles for miles were worth the expense because by that time that you have spent money and upgrades you could have gotten THE LATEST GREATEST🤣😂🤣 The struggle is real
I would fix and keep running them! Axle parts are are part of the consumable parts thst will need to be replaced eventually. I would typically think about replacing an rc if i had a real bad crash that destroyed a lot of parts all at the same time. But out normal bashing when I break something i just fix it and move on!
I have both of those models. The exact same ones, in fact LMAO I'd keep them and upgrade. The parts aren't THAT much... The hard part (buying the car itself) is done. Slowly Make monsters of them lol
You know a guy really loves his RC hobby and takes time to work on them so they will be ready at a moments notice when someone says " It's Bashing Time "! and the check engine light is on , on his car . You gotta love that !! Have fun !!
I've learned, to my cost, that my K6s breaks at skateparks. I still go, occasionally, but I go in the knowledge it'll be expensive. My favourite spot for it is the golf course - on a week day or early/late on a weekend - when there's few golfers. Stay off the greens and out the bunkers and nobody minds. Big, wide spaces, with soft landings and loads of opportunities for getting air. 👊🏻
I have both truck and they are great. durable too, what is the alternative that won't get broken faster? I doubt there are a lot of trucks which are such great bashers and are more durable than those two. Maybe team corraly, maybe the traxxas maxx. not sure if even those stand up to the 1/10 arrma trucks. sometimes you get "lucky" and the truck breaks in the first few minutes of usage like you had with the outcast. it relly is a bummer and discoraging at times but overall long term those two are durable and great.
@@LegendsPizzaCo most trucks hold up well if you land correctly without mistakes but when there is a mistake its a test to their durability. Which kraton? 1/10, 1/8 or 1/5? the durability decreases with size in my opinion due to the heavy weight.
You can send me the ouchcast 😂 so I can finally finish my build. I'm heading out around my little city with my neon TLR typhon and a backpack of spare parts. One day I should get a camera and record my city bashing.
@rcguygarage Not sure if I smiled more or all the people watching. Need to waterproof my lights better but it surprisingly didn't break after doing snow bank jumps onto sidewalks.
The bigrock those axles hubs are pretty tuff on the stockers but the upgraded ones are a bit weaker. First time i see one snap like that. You running the upgraded or upgraded? The outcast 4s week its a known issue since day 1 it came out as the v2. Arrma cheaped on the axles from the v1. The v1 outcast and kraton had an option part just like the axles you have on ur bigrock but with true 17mm hex. On the v2 they cheaped out and redesigned the whole axles to have plastic ends that like to snap if the conditions are a met.. on the pictures of the v2 you could still see the trucks had the v1 axles on them. I believe putting the CVD’s was a last minute idea and they didnt want to put the design they already had as option for the v1. So they made them cheaper. On the 4s mojave they made plastic guards to help prevent the part from snapping. Truly remarkable...
Part of the fun, part of the hobby. Rip, brake, repair, repeat. ❤❤ Get some new axels and cvd's and carry on! Just film the repair, you know we love it 😂❤❤
Very well said. What I'm seeing is comments all over the spectrum on this. You got people saying fix it and then you've got other people saying upgrade it and then even some agreeing with a part of what I said replace it either with a brand new one or something else
Bro, carry a box of parts with you and power driver. Shht like that happens all the time, know your high wear parts, have them on hand, and get some field work in.
Sorry to hear you broke. You’ve made some good upgrades that should last. Hopefully just minor breakages from here on out!! I know you’ll be back, and thanks for keeping us Entertained 😝😜🤪
Takin my bigrock out 4 times now just on the road.. first run.. tire fell off in the first 5 mins losing the wheel nut.. waited two days for them to come.. 2nd and 3rd was fine.. yesterday was the forth and I broke the bottom out of a front shock.where it attaches to the truck.. from doing a wheelie... so far 30$ for 4 runs..
The big rock v3 is dirt cheap atm, been contemplating just getting 2 new ones. One to drive and the other one as a donor (including my current one). Should last me a long time before I need to buy parts again. The big rock is worth it man, think about it.
They’re all the same dude, no matter what brand. I love the bashers but I’ve recently moved towards trail trucks and crawlers because I can upgrade or tinker with them when I want to , not because something is broke . I’m guilty of grabbing bashers after work , getting to the spot and then finding out the car is broken 😂, I know we should do a pre check before running our cars , but sometimes you forget or just want to get out there and blow off steam, I feel your pain !!!
Yes there's less of a chance normally of breaking a trail truck to an extent cuz even those can wear out snap and break usually on a slow speed tumble 😂🤣😂🤣
To me it’s all about the smile. When it no longer makes you happy time to trade. I would hate running my trucks knowing they may break. Especially with light driving you did.
Sorry but if you want a bullet proof basher you need to own a hpi savge nitro, absolute beast takes a bashing and keeps on ticking. All these new models still cant compete in my honest opinion.
Not even Buddy of mine got the HPI Savage Nitro and absolutely hated it because of the out of a box breakages that he was having. So sometimes it does depend upon what you get how long you have it for and when it's time to cut your losses and just release it out to the wild to see if it can fend for itself. 😂🤣
@@rcguygarage this is true but I so regret selling mine, it had the lcg chassis updated diffs and big bore shocks. Dam thing used to get big air and still kept rolling, the hpi 25 engine was a good work horse when turned right. 3 speed gearbox, shifted into each gear like a dream.
You, blaming the RC car, priceless. Like it has the ability to self tighten all it's own screws after each pack. And you drove all the way to the SKATEPARK (aka rc kill zone) to realize that. WOW man. 😂
Wow man I have no idea what video you watched what the hell did screw tightening have to do with anything 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 maybe there's a couple of screws loose somewhere else 😂🤣 and yes if you're not laughing after the last sentence then there's definitely something wrong with you
I love the big rock I found a mini 1/16 big rock i will say every time I take it out I’m replacing something rear diff on a small jump then on the same exact jump I hit it a lil off and rear arm completely twisted I upgraded to aluminum actually all metal rears bent. I watch all these videos guys 🚀 launching to the moon and no damage I hit 6feet and blame back to the shop. My big rock I’ve had 2months in that span I’ve replaced almost every part
That outcast must have been already broken from the last time you bashed it and you didn't notice. What you do is you go over the cars, I mean take diffs apart the lot, as you never know, look what parts look warn/need replacing work out the cost, put a dab of thread lock on any loose screw that goes into metal if and superglue on any going into plastic that won't bite. After working out what's needed If the cost of replacement parts isn't too bad keep, replace and if the price is silly get a new car. Sell the old car as spares, say it's working but will require some tlc, good for someone getting into the hobby who can't afford to buy a new car but can buy parts as as and when, etc.
Kind of a good comment except for the fact that I do not agree with the very beginning part about maintenance. In my mind that would be overkill for a time frame you are on this planet for.
@@rcguygarage Just realised it might sound like I meant that I do that every time lol. I don't normal maintenance is look over the car and clean. I went extreme because you were saying, should you fix this or get a new one, I'd only go over the car like that in that specific situation as new rc's are expensive.
@@rcguygarage Well Gee Whiz... I thought for sure that wise crack about "armma junk" would at least get me a bit of a "reprimand" or something! :) LOL!
I may have figured out the servo issue on Arrma Outcast 4s V2. So I turned those black guards on the front shocks to face away from the drive shaft and now it’s turning almost on a dime. I’ve had mine for about 5 months and the turning radius was always bad. I saw the wear on the drive shaft where those guard were so I just lifted the spring and now have them facing away from the drive shaft and now it’s awesome. I mean that has to be it because I haven’t changed it from stock at all. Let me know if it works for you and if it does just give me a shout out on a video. Bill O’Leary…A Subscriber 🤙🏻
I haven’t a clue how that would work but if it does all the better! When you say face away from the driveshaft, do you mean so the higher mudguard piece on the bottom of the shock is closer or farther from the drive shaft?
It’s the only thing I can think that helped because I haven’t upgraded anything on it. It’s completely bone stock. I just rotated the mud guard so that’s it’s no longer touching the drive shaft. The thing now all of a sudden turns on a dime.@@magnusstone
Definitely the two things that can end your day..... Done just that. Weather and a breakage you got both, but hey hats off guy to the valad point do you keep buying parts or just another new RC....I'm personally at the point yes fix up what's done and buy a new one and put the old on the shelf and just run now and then. .... Like I've done with my 6s Senton she comes out now and then and I still enjoy the heck out of it.....What concerns me more is the management light on the Big Jag.. 😂
That big rock still got those aftermarket drive shafts? The ones with those weird rings that cushion impacts? Thought I remember you doing that and having an o ring part of it that didn't seem to fit anywhere. I wonder if that's what they are for to sandwich in there and cushion impacts.
I wanna start out by saying, I absolutely love your videos and reviews. I understand your frustration. I'm sitting home waiting on parts from China for my Hyper go H14BM. RC's are gonna break. You're definitely not easy on them and push them to their limits and beyond for sure...😂 You know as well as I do that breakage and repairs are all part of the hobby guy!
So far I have only had a couple of issues with maybe two or three ovonic packs but I've got a whole slew of them all different types of c ratings s ratings all of it milliamps and I have to say calling these packs budget they're actually worth it in my mind from what I've seen. And a lot of people know how badly I treat my packs and these just seem to take it
@@rcguygarage oh ok i bought some 3s 3000mah ones for the 1/12 scale. So i bave been trying them out to see how they are. I have been buying some Zeee packs and changing connectors on them when they are on sale. So i saw ovonics 3s 3000mah for 41 bucks.
Most of the parts are really cheap. Every time I break something I buy two of the parts. I’ve got a pretty decent inventory of parts and I’ve been able to repair it on the fly right at the spot the last three times I broke something.
I get it. Eventually it becomes time for a big rebuild and you dump alot of money into it n like you said you could get another car. The struggle is real
I did swap over to the Arrma CVD upgrade which in the beginning I actually felt it was a downgrade because they are made to fit all the models of 3S and the problem with that is the big rock has the widest footprint so you are on the edge with the splines on the center but they seem to be working and this breakage to be honest with you was warranted but keep in mind nothing will last forever
@@rcguygarage I didn’t realize your brcc is wider because mine is the original one , it always broke compared to the granite and I just enjoyed the granite more . When you got into the brcc in recent years I rebuilt back from all parts I’ve taken . I never had issues at all with either truck now all sudden it keeps popping out . Weird because it’s only after ripping a
The Outcast didn't sound good when you first started to roll . It must have been broken before you even started maybe . Sorry man ! We have all had days like that .
I’ll take the pain and suffering outcast from you lol. Just saying, it’d be in good hands for sure. (If I posted twice sorry. Tried editing original and can’t find it now)
@rcguygarage I can handle it...get this let my buddy distract himself for a bit by bringing a few rc to his house his mom not long for this world well he tried to avoid a curb with the infraction and ripped the steering right off my transmitter, little super glue and a longer screw and it's back together
Was Guy visited by the product review fairy? Lol, she might regret it, cuz Guy does “accelerated depreciation” better than anybody on TH-cam. The WOV trucks seem decent, but bring upgrade shocks cause the stock ones are Team Not One Pack!
I'm going to talk to text this answer or response You literally have me actually laughing guy in the middle of your stinking comment you say accelerated depreciation I absolutely love this. Oh my God guy I am literally laughing I can't get my sentences out 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
old R/C's will last forever.......If maintained properly. I still run my Losi LXT and RC10GT! I see most basher's(not all) never inspect the R/C after running it, they just throw it on a shelf and wait to complain when something breaks ROFL. Most bashers will take their R/C to the hobby shop and ask why the R/C don't work, instead of maintaining it themselves. It is sort of sad to see what this hobby has become, It used to promote mechanical skills now its just a yuppie fest.
Well, to be for real. A breakage from the previous run or from a current run is still a breakage. Arrma just sucks. My Losis and my Traxxas RCs rarely break.
@@SebastianLong All R/C's will break, it can be avoided by doing more then just putting a battery in. Inspect the R/C before throwing it on a self, look at weak points for wear. Parts wear out from use, any guy/gal with a hint of mechanical ability should be able to tell if a part is worn enough to require replacement. And traxxas is no different than Arrma, Cheapest to make but most expensive to buy.
Cut'em loose.....spend your money on something new.....run, break, repair is great......but when its come to go 20', broke, repair.....repair.....repair....that's not fun....😎👍

It’s the only thing I can think that helped because I haven’t upgraded anything on it. It’s completely bone stock.
I just rotated the mud guard so that’s it’s no longer touching the drive shaft. The thing now all of a sudden turns on a dime.@@magnusstone
Definitely the two things that can end your day..... Done just that. Weather and a breakage you got both, but hey hats off guy to the valad point do you keep buying parts or just another new RC....I'm personally at the point yes fix up what's done and buy a new one and put the old on the shelf and just run now and then. .... Like I've done with my 6s Senton she comes out now and then and I still enjoy the heck out of it.....What concerns me more is the management light on the Big Jag.. 😂
Evap solenoid and driver side front wheel speed sensor 👍💯😜
That big rock still got those aftermarket drive shafts? The ones with those weird rings that cushion impacts? Thought I remember you doing that and having an o ring part of it that didn't seem to fit anywhere. I wonder if that's what they are for to sandwich in there and cushion impacts.
No it's for a different application
Jennys rc is calling you guy. Might be time to run a different rc for a bit and go over those two more thoroughly.
🤫 We are doing EXACTLY THAT
Buddyrc wow RC, hope you got the updated shocks
I wanna start out by saying, I absolutely love your videos and reviews. I understand your frustration. I'm sitting home waiting on parts from China for my Hyper go H14BM. RC's are gonna break. You're definitely not easy on them and push them to their limits and beyond for sure...😂 You know as well as I do that breakage and repairs are all part of the hobby guy!
👍💯🙏
Upgrade to 17mm hex like we all do.
That was the WORST MISTAKE I already made on mine😂🤣
Time for a Arrma overhaul.
And what is that A completely new unit 😜👍💯👊
@@rcguygarage 😆👊
Hey guy how are those ovonics batteries run and and hold up. yeah, nothing like charging up a bunch of packs and then having a crash.
So far I have only had a couple of issues with maybe two or three ovonic packs but I've got a whole slew of them all different types of c ratings s ratings all of it milliamps and I have to say calling these packs budget they're actually worth it in my mind from what I've seen. And a lot of people know how badly I treat my packs and these just seem to take it
@@rcguygarage oh ok i bought some 3s 3000mah ones for the 1/12 scale. So i bave been trying them out to see how they are. I have been buying some Zeee packs and changing connectors on them when they are on sale. So i saw ovonics 3s 3000mah for 41 bucks.
Most of the parts are really cheap. Every time I break something I buy two of the parts. I’ve got a pretty decent inventory of parts and I’ve been able to repair it on the fly right at the spot the last three times I broke something.
👍💯
You can only run them for so long after a certain time they nickel and dime you. I remembered you made a video on that.
👍💯👊
RC is a money pit in general. 😂😂
EVERYTHING is to a point
Damn it Guy, I can’t get that song out of my head!
Raindrops keep falling on My Head 😂🤣😂🤣
gotta get that Habao buggy out!!
Dang you're RIGHT👍💯👊
You realize you just reminded me of what wheels need to go on the NEW RC just because you said this
I genuinely don’t care for how arrma is built. After owning a big rock I can say I’m more of a traxxas guy
Nice👍💯
Upgrade one of them and dump the other one for the parts you need for said upgrades… just an idea
I get it. Eventually it becomes time for a big rebuild and you dump alot of money into it n like you said you could get another car. The struggle is real
Exactly👍💯
Guy what axles did you use on BRCC I have a granite popping axles idk why I play with beginners RCS you get it you do same
I did swap over to the Arrma CVD upgrade which in the beginning I actually felt it was a downgrade because they are made to fit all the models of 3S and the problem with that is the big rock has the widest footprint so you are on the edge with the splines on the center but they seem to be working and this breakage to be honest with you was warranted but keep in mind nothing will last forever
@@rcguygarage I didn’t realize your brcc is wider because mine is the original one , it always broke compared to the granite and I just enjoyed the granite more . When you got into the brcc in recent years I rebuilt back from all parts I’ve taken . I never had issues at all with either truck now all sudden it keeps popping out . Weird because it’s only after ripping a
That's a bad day of RC cars right there!
But. Rain is better than snow anyday!!
Snow is amazing fun with RC what are you talking about
@@CptAngelKGaming no thanks. Did snow for 55 years in Cohasset MA.
Moved to Florida in 2006!!
You can enjoy it for both of us!!
If you love it, feed it! If ya tired, go take a nap.
Time to go home brother leave it alone for a day… days like that suck
Oh this day didn't end there guy😜
No, You fix that crap and get back out there guy. You don't move on. If I did that I would not have any RC cars left. LOL
We got an OPTIMIST here👍💯👊 he is looking at that glass as half full 😜
The Outcast didn't sound good when you first started to roll . It must have been broken before you even started maybe . Sorry man ! We have all had days like that .
I’ll take the pain and suffering outcast from you lol. Just saying, it’d be in good hands for sure. (If I posted twice sorry. Tried editing original and can’t find it now)
Too many "high dollar" offers coming in to decide what to do😳🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
@@rcguygarage I hope to see it fixed. Like your videos and who doesn’t like repair videos! Bash break repeat is the motto right 😂
Yep, my bigrock is at the retirement homes door 😂
😳🤣😂🤣😂 I like this one
You are certainly ambitious with your batteries!!
I'm a little bit CHERNOBYL-ESK
Question ima get a big rock 6s or Talion 6s with a Power hobby 6s 5200mAh 100c is that good or 2 power hobby 3s 75c 5200mAh
I'll give them a good home
You don't want that kind of disaster entering into your life😂🤣
@rcguygarage I can handle it...get this let my buddy distract himself for a bit by bringing a few rc to his house his mom not long for this world well he tried to avoid a curb with the infraction and ripped the steering right off my transmitter, little super glue and a longer screw and it's back together
It was a beautiful drive!
Was Guy visited by the product review fairy? Lol, she might regret it, cuz Guy does “accelerated depreciation” better than anybody on TH-cam. The WOV trucks seem decent, but bring upgrade shocks cause the stock ones are Team Not One Pack!
I'm going to talk to text this answer or response You literally have me actually laughing guy in the middle of your stinking comment you say accelerated depreciation I absolutely love this. Oh my God guy I am literally laughing I can't get my sentences out 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
The new series Accelerated Depreciation episode 1
old R/C's will last forever.......If maintained properly. I still run my Losi LXT and RC10GT! I see most basher's(not all) never inspect the R/C after running it, they just throw it on a shelf and wait to complain when something breaks ROFL. Most bashers will take their R/C to the hobby shop and ask why the R/C don't work, instead of maintaining it themselves. It is sort of sad to see what this hobby has become, It used to promote mechanical skills now its just a yuppie fest.
Could not agree more…. Hot take, but rc’s need to be kits again. Save us money too.
That's just called life to some. Some use life in different ways for sure.
Well, to be for real. A breakage from the previous run or from a current run is still a breakage. Arrma just sucks. My Losis and my Traxxas RCs rarely break.
@@SebastianLong All R/C's will break, it can be avoided by doing more then just putting a battery in. Inspect the R/C before throwing it on a self, look at weak points for wear. Parts wear out from use, any guy/gal with a hint of mechanical ability should be able to tell if a part is worn enough to require replacement. And traxxas is no different than Arrma, Cheapest to make but most expensive to buy.
Hey if I live in a filtered bubble I will never get sick LOL
i swear guy. my big rock is always broken too
It happens👍 still fun though
I spend more time fixing my big rock 6s than i do running it
So what are you going to buy that's not going to break when you smash it on concrete?
A sledge HAMMAH
do you ever run at the BMX track across from the skate park?
Unfortunately not allowed. 👍
Cut'em loose.....spend your money on something new.....run, break, repair is great......but when its come to go 20', broke, repair.....repair.....repair....that's not fun....😎👍
I like your line of thinking on this one 😂🤣👍💯
Thanks Guy.....
Take the Kagama!
Great vid man your my go to TH-camr for rc content. Your videos never disappoint ! What primary rcs did u run before the armas ? And you should run your dbxle 2.0 that would make for a sick vid
Team Associated Kyosho Redcat Traxxas oh and can't forget Tyco and radio shack😜
always bring tools and spares
Boom🎉
Good vibes and videos
Chernobyl 😂
Gotta show some love for mother Russia
Arrma Tough baby!
😢😢
