- This is one of the most overlooked upgrades when it comes to RTR Bashers!
There is way more to an RC Car than speed alone and handling plays a massive part in determining how good an RC car can be!
So many including myself neglect one of the most important things in an RC car and with a very simple upgrade so much more performance can be had!

This is the servo i used: www.savoxusa.c...

This is an upgrade that should never be overlooked as it adds so much to an RC cars performance!
Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
See you on the next one!

If you are looking for better handling and more responsive steering a new Savox Steering servo could be the way to go! Do you run an upgraded servo? Are you still using RTR Servos? Do you think they are a worthwhile investment? Let me know :)
i agree, its not all about top speed, but slow cars usually have poor air control and feel lazy to drive. lots of controversy about this car, so ive just got myself one, not driven it yet though
I can’t wait to see your video on it Kev. Maybe compare it to the Kraton 4s?
@@deezrcz im going to compare it to cars of similar style and price :)
I agree Kev. Thought about it after that vid and felt it had a little more to give. Would definitely recommend the 15t pinion or 17t if you are brave lol. The tyres are very firm and that didn’t help the air control either. It was so much better after the upgrades
I can't wait also, kev to see your video on it. I absolutely love my Kagama 4 and I think a lot of the controversy comes from a lot of haters i only love anything that says Arrma or Traxxas on the side of it. Keep it up with the great content. Your channel is single-handedly got me back into RC after 30 years.
Can you do a video on the kagama4 please kev?
I just did this to three of my cars ,big difference!
The back flips are the best all-terrain tire. I have them on my 6S Kagama and at one time on my Xmaxx. Very strong glue bead, cushiony as well but not too much. My personal opinion, but diff tuning and shock oil are very important as well and cheap.
Back flips are awesome! Best tyres for the Kraton.. I run the 4S BFon on my daughter's Sketer but I did need hex extenders. I think that 4S KAGAMA would look better with some hex extenders as well..
I've got 5 Corally rigs and I'd absolutely recommend tightening the servo saver as most of mine were extremely loose and you'll not get the benefit of that servo upgrade if the saver is too loose.. Love Corally rigs and the company have been great to deal with.. Cheers..
I've never liked this Kagama. I thought it was the speed, but now, after seeing it's Punisher brother, I realize, the Kagama has a major case of butter face...
Ppl complaining about buying upgrades but half the fun is upgrading and working on them then giving them a run with new parts.
With most of my RTR's I'm pretty pleased with the steering servos. They're not the best, but they get the job done. When racing, only the best will do. I ran Savox in all my race rigs and loved them! (Even if they're super power hungry!)
Absolutely man 👌😎
Those tyres really suit the look of this rc. Looks awesome!
Yes they do! Great combo
Great video! The steering servo is the first performance upgrade I make as well. I thjnk the 4s backflips look perfect on the kagama 4 and I bet they improve air control too.
They are very impressive. Really change the feel of the truck
Dude, thank you (you took what I said very personally, that wasn't my intention) keep up the great content 🤘🏼
Nothing you said influenced my video or choices. Dont mean to sound harsh but nothing anyone has ever said in the five years I have been doing TH-cam I have ever taken personally lol.
I have the 5.85" badlands on my kagama 4 and think they're absolutely perfect! A hair shorter but a bit wider offset than backflip 4s
AWESOME!
Another amazing brand is the agfrc servo, mostly HV servos fully programmable with usb adapter. I recently got for 50 euros a BRUSHLESS servo.... compared to a standard one the speed, the precision and the torque provided (also they are virtually indistructible and will never go bad) is on another level.
I've upgraded servos on most my RC cars tbf and it's upgrade would advise people to do
Yep, I don't even think about a servo unless there's an issue normally. I know Spektrum servos are hit or miss, so out of caution.. I upgraded the servo in the BJ24. It's way stronger than the stock unit and solved the drifting issue doing speed runs
We are all guilty of it! Servos are a worthwhile upgrade and can totally change the handling characteristics of an RC car!
DS servos are my go to, you've got to get the DS PRO version though because they're faster.!
They're really durable, (I've had some for years), 100% waterproof, cheap as chips(£14) & have a load of torque(25kg to 35kg)!
Changing the Fluid in the Diffs & SUSPENSION OIL. can Help , along with a Faster Stronger steering servo.
While Some i wouldn’t bother with .
What does get over looked is tyres most people want Uniform looks same on front as the rear .
But for racing depending on your driving style, you may want to play around with Grip levels front and rear. And you may find different brand tyres with different treads and softness work well . And Again Tuning it for Doing 100mph , Tuning it to go 40ft in the Air. Or tuning it for Tight cornering .
I personally like a little initial Understeer with enough power to kick the rear end out mid corner .
My mate prefers a very twitchy car but steady out of the corner . A little less power on a loose dirt track can be faster in a Lap
Maybe the 4s Copperheads are slightly smaller? (Kraton 4s wheels) Looks like itll have way more air control so id be ok with it
I use the China special eco boost servos. Cheap fast and powerful. I run the servo saver with minimal play about 1 mill travel and they seem to hold up to the abuse.
You're absolutely right about servos. Important upgrade. At 4:12...is it my beloved Quantum RX Flux? 😍
Yes, it is!
One day I thought: I need an RC rally car! Then I saw your videos on the Maverick, shortly afterwards I bought one, gave it a few upgrades (like a good servo, I went for Corally 5226) and have really liked it ever since!@@beyondRC
I agree 100%
👊
The link that you left for the servo went right to a servo that was discontinued.
Good servo ,but for 1/10,1/5,for $120-50,lifetime warranty perfect pass bout good as it gets or need
What’s a good motor esc and servo for $150 dollar budget for my Senton 4x2? And also something that will be compatible with 4x4 upgrade later
Whats the cost of four back flips and a savox servo
as much as a truck?.
Yeah but for any rc car of any type you want it to perform well,and be durable,which means a little bit of $,so for instance I have $800 in my 2wd slash and in 3 yrs of lots of use wrecks hitting trees,I've only bent a couple shocks,one hub,couple few pinions,normal, so is what it is if you don't wanna spend time fixing it all the time unfortunately almost every car,truck needs something in a rtr
I dropped my Vorteks to a 2400KV and haven'teven tried 4s on it yet. What now top speed bros? 🤣
It's a good car now, unfortunately with those upgrades, it costs more than an Arrma!
Would still pick it over an arrma 3s though 😏
It got 37 mph on 4s
Sure did on 13t pinion 42 on 15t more than enough for a 4kg truck 🥰
The problem is these basic upgrades has taken this truck to be a £500 truck, not such good value.
Lots of people upgrade their trucks. I have seen endless traxxas and Arrma cars with endless expensive upgrades!!
must do? buy the arrma kraton 6s EXB V3 ? ;P
Naaaa hard pass 😏
No way that's better than the new 223s Arrma range and it's proper ugly. 37 out the box is way too slow for a 4s
I have a vorteks 223s just arrived. We will soon find out let’s hope it’s as good as people are saying it is..
With all those upgrades that you need to put in that thing, you might as well buy a different RC for that price. Let alone the Kagama 6s itself is already expensive.
I feel like you're getting paid to "defend" this controversial rc. #justmy2cents
