Glad to see I'm not the only onne who can't stand the music.
It made me consider shooting myself....
I just started the video as I type this and I am already annoyed. 😖
The music didn’t bug me until I read the comments😂
Turn up the music I can still hear you
Ricky None lmfao
😂😂😂
Bro he just liked my comment saying this😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂🙌👏
Great Comparison Video. You could leave the music out the next time though.
Yes way to loud!!!
Thank God Simone else noticed that. I almost wristwatch g because it was loud and distracting
or just reduce gain another -6db and you should be good
That music makes me want to pour gasoline on my head and light it.
I was so into the comparison i forgot there was music playing .
Great comparison ! But please lose the music, it's way too loud and distracting, as others have said !
LMFAO between the loud music the sound of the car running and him taking I feel like I’m going insane
This video helped me reach the epiphany that Arrma was a legitimate brand. I have no regrets adding the Kraton to the collection.
Whether you're a Traxxas, Arrma, Losi , HPI or other fanboy, if you limit yourself to 1 brand you truly are missing out
That is completely irrelevant to the video, how can someone come to any conclusion about brand legitimacy with a comparison of 2 different style trucks? ....
@@DashzRight arrma kraton v3 vs e revo 2.0. Read the tittle? Arrma made it name with the kraton 6s.
Who the hell decided background music was a good idea?
S H WHAT? SPEAK UP I CANT HEAR YOU
Cool, but the talking really distracted me from the music.
Excellent comparison, very thorough. Felt like the E-Revo was more to my taste :)
same
Not a question, e revo and xmaxx destroy arrmas same class. No doubt. On road though, arrma wins all day. Never be a one sided fan boy
I got the E revo 2.0 from amain hobbies over a year ago and it is a great RC and they are a great company. No regrets AT ALL!
AMain Hobbies Great commentary on two very comparable vehicles. Your candor is much appreciated. Keep up the great work!
Good sentiments here, RC tribalism should not be a thing, if you like something and it is your choice then nobody should try to shit on you for it, these are things bought solely for fun, and are to be used as such. Good review.
Thanks for the true statement. I've owned a lot of RC brands over the years and enjoyed the different methods that are used to do the same thing, go fast and have fun!
Well said😃 plus when they al say it Will brake fast that doesnt mean when you have it, it still does it all depends on your use
Jesus! What a way to put it.
Keyed wheels?
Traxxas is the Apple of the RC world.
Yes I have a kraton and an erevo 2.0 and I hate how I can’t use the erevo tires on anything else unless I cut off the splines on the inside of the wheel
And Arrma is the Samsung of RC world
Nah, I mean if you can use anything on the traxxas, but you can't use the traxxas on others that's nothing like Apple.
@@jeffklaubo3168 well, it compares like, traxxas has their own ecosystem of products, has high quality and expensive and its has a brand value in the rc world. So in that sense it can be compared to Apple but not in all sense ofcourse
@@xptweak well in that sense it can be compared to any quality product then lol.
Great video ... thank you! After watching countless videos, I am planning to get my husband the EREVO 2.0 and my son an Arrma Keaton 6s. Thanks again.
Wow, what great gifts! That is exciting to know. They're going to be so excited to see those trucks! I'm excited for them.
One thing to note about those two selections, Traxxas vehicles use their proprietary battery connector, so you will have to buy their batteries, and battery charger. If you cut the connector off and replace it with something different, you void their warranty. With the Kraton, you can use any batteries, any chargers, as long as it has an EC5 connector. And if you want to change that to something different, you can without worry or issue. Hope I haven't made things worse, but you don't want to buy duplicate chargers and batteries. If you have any questions, let me know. Happy Holidays.

Best wife and mother ever
Great mom! How do they like them now?
Best gift you could get
Finally!!!! This is the comparison I've been looking for...
Don't know if anybody mentioned it but on high traction surfaces like asphalt and cement etc. Vehicles with grippy tires tend to traction roll without sway bars. Some people like traction rolling but I don't. On loose traction surfaces sometimes I remove my sway bars to get that cool body rolling effect that you mentioned.
Music vs brett
Thank you man, such good info! These are the 2 I've been battling which one to get and you gave really direct and thorough explanations and instructions on how to fix either 1 I'm very well I'm glad I subscribed.
You need to turn up the music a bit, I was able to decipher a few of the words you said.
Shoot, you made out a few? Darn... there is room for improvement then.
-Brett
So I said this on another comment already but I'll repeat... Strangely enough, and this surprises me... I actually like the music. These videos are great, the music is pleasant (go ahead haters, flame away, I can take it) and the music actually just adds a good background to the great informational and entertaining vid. Awesome job man.
Great advice on the centre diff oil tweak! I’m picking up a new Kraton tomorrow and some thicker diff oil is now on the shopping list 👍
I have an outcast and it's nearly bulletproof haha, not sure about the kraton but I put 500k weight oil in the center diff and bumped up the esc's punch setting to 6 out of 9 and it does standing backflips with no effort haha
crazycamkalani that sounds nuts... 👍
Matt J GOOD LUCK BROTHER
Thanks for the video. We have a Kraton and Senton. They have been working great. No problems except had to replace Kraton servo after a head on crash with a other RC.
I got my son a Kraton for his birthday. Figured I would try out something different for me that I could run with him, I am absolutely loving it!!! I didn't expect to like it as much as I do. I lean more towards buggy's and truggys most of the time.
Thanks for posting this!!
Like after 48 secs....IMHO forward thinking of doing reviews! Thanks dude!
I have a stamped, revo3.3 and a UDR. I wanted a change so I went with the Kraton and boy is this thing fun with no disappointments.
Great video. You covered some aspects that no one else mentions. subbed.
Great video thanks for the time you take to show us all these neat differences. I enjoyed the music it gave a neat hobbyist feel to the video. 👍 from STEWS R.C
great video! 1 of my favorite comparison videos I have watched 👍. I didnt mind the music, but it was to loud
Great review. That center diff oil point is so crucial when comparing these two. I think the people would love to see a long term durability test between these cars!
I think arrma puts water in the diffs or wd40 to stop rust
@@pops4141 They don't put either in the diffs, especially water lol wtf. Water literally causes rust.
Dude I couldn't Finnish this video because of that music. I'm glad to see I'm not just crazy here....lol
Great vid! I love my Kraton! I was.thinking of getting outcast wheels/tires for mine
But I do use my car on pavement a lot so the regular ones are decent and cam handle the dirt. Good review especially the diff weight. Cheers!
Good info! Nice comparison 👍👍👍
Nice video. Would love to have seen more bashing comparison but great comparisons nonetheless. 👍👍
Great video, great review 👍👍👍
I got the e-REVO 2 but I'll agree both look and PERFORMANCE MUST BE AWESOME! 👍💖✔
Great comparison, especially regarding the diff fluids and how it affects the driving experience of each truck. In my Kraton I run 500k in my center diff and 100k front and rear diffs, for me this is great for bashing...though if I were to do it over, I may go with 50-60k weight in the front and rear diffs. Cheers!
AMain Hobbies i think with lighter fluid in the front and rear diffs I would get quicker turn in, in turns...I need to experiment with it more, but this is more for racing, and i only bash🙂👍
Glad to see this comparison from three years ago! The E-Revo 2.0 was hands down better than the Kraton V3. But Arrma has been making updates every year, and currently the Kraton V5 is hands down better than the E-Revo 2.0. Traxxas is way behind the competition these days, they just can't keep up. Meanwhile Arrma keeps making big changes every year and keeps improving!
I just ordered my Arrma Outcast 6S EXB RTR and I can't wait to get it.
Awesome vid 👍👍👍
I personally chose the erevo. Looked at both. Great video
Great work on the comparison. Thanks
"Different roads taking you to a good time" - I like that.
That was perfect
Great comparison👌i just bought my kraton 6s blx v4. Love it💯
Just out of curiosity why dint you get the exb version
@@Scoodee17 based off reviews, the kraton 6s blx was the better option 👌
@@PhillyDee215 I did want the exb myself but maybe I should look more into it then 👍
Awesome review 👍🤙
Love the tunes!
You can add the clipless body to the older e-revo and the summit if you want I did it to mine and love it it's so easy every rc should have it !
Great video man
Great video.
Ordered my EREVO 2.0 a couple of days ago. Can’t wait till it gets here.
Great video brother great trucks and 👍😁 I've subbed you my friend because I think I can learn alot from your videos well done 👍👍👍
Your welcome my freind 🇬🇧👍😊
I have the E-revo and it’s a beast, so much power and control
got them both and love them both!!!!
AMain Hobbies I would switch when I went out but now got enough batteries to bring both😁. Great videos bro!!
Good video !
Nice comparison !!! I’m keen to try the one million weight fluid now 😁 Here’s me thinking 100k was thick 👍🏻👍🏻😎🤟
The real comparison the music vs brett
Nice comparison man! Its like the edited professional version of my RC video comparisons LOL!! I think I'm invest in a new camera and take a video editing course. Amain hobbies for life. Quick question, did you do an XMAXX video before on another channel, BOWEN RC or something like that??...I loved that video BTW ;-)
AMain Hobbies It was the best XMAXX video to date in my mind honestly. I wish it was still up. I spent like a half hour looking for it. But gone. Thanks for subscribing. I did as well :-) Peace brother!
AMain Hobbies Wait I found it! YES!!! THANK YOU, couldn't before because it's BBowenRC...I forgot your first initial :-P...I recommended this video to sooo many people. Because it really demonstrates the toughness of that rig. Your primarily on here now. But I subbed anyways, I think you had a ton fans on that channel that wanted you back lol. All good though I understand.
Amazing comparison bro well done! the problem is that I cant make up my mind which one to get 😂
Great Video 👍👍👍👍👍👍
They both look awesome, I would choose the e revo 2.0 since I already have traxxas batteries for it, and love the way it looks.
This is a much better comparison than the Arrma Kraton vs. Traxxas UDR. The UDR is more a trophy truck and more about details. Kraton and the E-Revo 2.0 are real bashers! I sense a little favoritism in the Kraton. The sway bar pretty much sucks and the E-Revo has strong plastic and bigger better tires. Sounds like when you read through it, the E-Revo is the real winner here! I am not a fan of the 2 motor steering servo on the E-Revo is my only complaint!
Thank alot buddy
Great video
Wish you made this video with closed caption. So I can turn off the music and still get the good info. The music why?
After replacing center diff fluid in the kraton and taking off sway bars , this thing is an absolute beast!
I dont know, I kinda like the sway bars
The Kraton has been fun but I think i'm going to sell it and graduate to a Tekno now ;)
I had to make this choice, I missed having my old revo, so revo it is! I love the tech of the e revo
Good video. Pretty sure if someone owns either of these monsters, they'll be driving with a big smile on their face. Nonetheless, when comparing two products, don't you have to take cost into account? Sure prices change but I'd be okay if comparison reviews said "as of right now this retails for X and this for X." to help people get a better gauge between the two.
Dude, great video with a lot of info :P Just.. The music man, could you please lower it a little? Makes it hard to listen to you with so much noise. Thank you
Put different center diff fluid in and the kraton launches like its crazy which is nice
Great comparision! Thank you! @AMain Hobbies could you please give us more info about sway bars? I own Kraton v2 btw. What are recomendation for removing sway bars? If the model goes better without them, why Arrma is using them in Kraton? What are the benefits if they are installed?
Adorable Erevo 😜
Nice review. Just turn the music down.
What's the name of the track btw??
Nice work.
Couple up grades and the kraton is bullet proof. I snapped a pin in the diff and an axle shaft at the bmx track but other than that it's a tank m2c chassis is next on the list
Awesome trucks
So it basically comes down to spare parts then. I know that many of the Arrma parts are compatible across their 1/8 scale line. Is Traxxas the same way? Nice video, seems like you had a great time testing both trucks 👍 The Kraton is very versatile and can be tuned many different ways. I dont see the e-revo as having as many tuning options, I could be wrong though...
Am i the only one who loves seeing the revo going up the curb ? It kinda like slithers up haha i love seeing it
Love the review. I am actually thinking of getting the revo. But still not sure lol. And ya the music is a bit much. But I would like to know. As a consumer witch one would you buy ?
I have the full size EREVO 2.0 I done some suspension work like a lil lift, heavier springs, limiting straps, center diff grease as traxxas skimps out on it.
Motor cooling fan, front and rear lights, and the MAX wheels(I machine some titanium hex nuts) also I installed the telemetry systems pack, heavy DUTY servos, A-arms, sealed ceramic bearings, heavier AWG & terminal to battery wire cables and speed controller,.
Next I am prototyping a wireless camera to send a video live feed via wifi to my phone so I can record and have a point of view.
Nice! Sounds like some fun and fast R/C FPV using the E-Revo 2.0! Good luck when you're wheeling down the street.
-Brett
Nice video i like them both 🖒 they're unique in their own way. Can you do a video on helion conquest 10b xlr buggy break down and show how it performs on 3s on road and off road it would be very nice thank you
I'd say something about the music but it's already been said but I will say this, it has that Cinco de Mayo feel to it.
I bought both. I prefer the Kraton but the E-Revo is still a lot of fun
Veteran Resist what do you like more about the Kraton vs the e Revo ? I’m looking into getting one of these stuck on these 2
@@MarcosGonzalez-hb5rv I had a meet-up with some RC enthusiasts and one of them had the E-Revo he ran it on 4S and that thing was a beast in someone lent him to 3's batteries cuz we all wanted to see what it could do and it was crazy fast . He had a big yellow spoiler on the back and that literally became the wheelie bar
Ditto on 🎶(too high). Great info/video!
I had never had a kraton..but i have the new revo 2.0..and this thing is a beast it lays down raw power..i havent had ne issues yet
Truth.
-Brett
Great video! I was set on the erevo but I test drove one at the store and it broke. also I don’t like how they are trying to force everyone to buy their batts and chargers. Soooo I was all set to get a Kraton but now I hear they are bankrupt. What’s the latest? Is parts availability looking good?
Thanks for the reply! It was the “self righting” feature. It wiggled a little then made a nasty grinding sound.
I connected my headphones so I can read the comments to a chill beat 😆
Good luck finding parts for arrma cars in 5 years
Barsabus yeah about that
Why do we need luck for that?
I don't think they will discontinue the 6s line
The Kraton is also good for running over the Senton 6S as a buddy found out the hard way when he was talking about outrunning me then stopped behind me.
Thanks for detailing difference in the behavior/performance of the center differentials in these two vehicles. Does anyone know, is this still the same today (2021 January)?
The E-Revo 2.0 is still the same, but the Kraton 6S BLX has been updated to be more aggressive, with better tires and heavier diff fluid. Here is the V5 Kraton: www.amainhobbies.com/arrma-kraton-6s-blx-rtr-1-8-4wd-brushless-monster-truck-blue-v5-ara8608v5t2/p1274552

Cool!
great vid but bit its like the band is playing you off at the emmys when you go on too long. prolly gonna get an erevo. got a rustler and xmaxx guess i need the in between
Chris Hirner what’s nice about the erevo and the xmaxx share many of the same gears, so if you break a spur gear for the erevo and you have a spare for the xmaxx, it will fit
It sounds crazy but these two cars are very very cool!!!!!!!
Well that is geat!!!!!!
Que genio sos eh!! Pero cuanto quisiera el unbocing en español. Te quería consultar si la EREVO soporta baterías 6s y cuál es la diferencia si conectas en serie o paralelo ?? Gracias genio y saludos
Hola Juan. Buena pregunta. En el circuito en serie, el voltaje se combina, haciendo dos lipo 3S en una lipo 6S. En circuito paralelo, la capacidad (mah) se combina, pero no el voltaje. Si tiene dos baterías, y cada una de ellas es de 3S 5000mAh, un circuito paralelo le proporciona energía 3S, pero una capacidad de 10,000mah. Espero que tenga sentido!
-Brett
Great Video, I have been uming and ahring between the 2 and now I’m sold on the Kraton
E revo hands down
Of the two trucks which would you say is the most durable out of the box? Great video!
Man i just recently had to choose between these 2 and had to go with the Kraton. I've owned 8 Traxxas vehicles throughout my time in the hobby and had to switch it up! With all the positive buzz surrounding Arrma and the Kraton in general i'm pretty excited to bust open the box! Picked up a fresh 6s pack and i'm itching to pull that trigger. Gotta wait til xmas though lol. It's nice to see Pro-line and Jconcepts coming out with bodies for the Kraton and I hope they don't stop there. Man this hobby is a sickness i'm already thinking about whats gonna come after the Kraton. UDR? Baja Rey? Hmmmmmm.... lol. Keep up the good videos man and have a Merry Christmas!
Very nice rides for sure
Ffs stop the music in u videos!! So enjoying!!
I have both trucks, and both trucks are great. However, I find myself using and enjoying the Kraton a lot more.
So if I change the kraton diff oil for something thicker, would It be able to do standing backflips like the Revo? (New to the hobby, debating on which of these 2 to get as my first rc.)
Oh yeah Lloyd. Changing out the center diff fluid changes the truck drastically. Although I failed to stress in the video, the thicker the fluid, the more strain on the drivetrain system since the power is more direct. And in loose surface conditions, it will be really hard to keep the tires from spinning. You can't go wrong with the Kraton though, and in fact it made our #1 spot in our Top 10 video. You should check it out if you haven't. Here it is: th-cam.com/video/W73c5ef5KLo/w-d-xo.html&lc=UgxYI8lSdoXc2TaR3WZ4AaABAg

6.35 minute subtitles are interrupted .... can you fix it?
I'm very interested in this review
thank's for your job
If the E-Revo 2.0 is like the E-Revo then you can run it on one battery if you change the way the wires are in the plug. I've done it several times in my E-Revo.
Love the content in the video. You could lose the music. It's annoying.
