Thank you for bringing this up. I think some people had the irrational belief that the EXB would be unbreakable. Even with shit driving. The EXB is a masterpiece.
Another one for the books Bickety. 👍👍. Straight talk and some awesome bashing. 👊🏻👊🏻. If you can’t get that rig to do a frontie I have nope hope lol 😂. Bash on brother 😎😎
Thanks for the latest tutorial jump vid Ed. Makes me want to go out and send my EXB to the moon. Wait, I saw this video on AF and did go out and send it! Love watching and listening to you bro. Keep up the great work.
Videos like this is why I like you. And also this truck seems like its really great overall especially for the price. People can complain and people will listen to that and complain also but people like that aren’t going to buy an arrma anyway they just want to complain.
It’s a good truck I stay off Facebook to much drama I did have rear diff issue but I didn’t notice it as I took it out to compare it with the v4 and noticed teeth missing but it ran fine before I took it apart good video I love my ExB 👍👍💯💯and my v4 to 💯💯👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥
Awesome stuff Brother Ed 😜!!!! Jumping up into the trees on this one. Killer raw look and summation of the EXB 😍. Guys will whine and complain about so much it's pathetic. Parts should break with nasty hits. Easier to blame than to own it I guess 😂. Great to see you back out Bro. 🍻😎💪👊👊
If your car had a rear diff issue, it surely would have stripped the gears on a few of those hard rear landings. I love this video, really is my favorite way you share your content. The car is tough and your driving/flying looks like such fun. Great stuff mate!!!
Killer bash Ed! Looks like a lot of fun! Thanks for doing that commentary, and bringing up those points. I have been on the AF quite a bit lately. Unfortunately, I have had a pretty bad experience so far with the EXB. My rear diffs had the wrong shim thickness. They were .15 instead of the .20 causing the internal gears to shred. I managed to find some replacements, installed them with the correct shims I got from HH. Everything seemed fine for about 5 min. Then the rear ring gear got chewed up. So now the truck is down again, waiting on parts. I've run the truck twice in the two weeks I've had it for a total of about ten minutes. I guess the correct shimming is pretty crucial. I didn't realize I needed to shim the ring gear from the outside next to the bearing. Are you shimming the ring gears? I've ordered the Kyosho ones that Eric suggested in his last video. Hopefully, once I get this thing shimmed up proper, I can actually run it without issue. I'm sure the truck is solid, other than the diff BS. Still waiting on a response from HH. It's been a week with zero response from them via email. Had to pay for all parts out of pocket. Kind of a disappointment so far, for me at least.
@@bicketybamRC Thanks Ed, I appreciate that. I wasn't trying to be negative on your channel. I love Arrma, I have the K6s V4 and the K8s. I also have the O8s pre-ordered. I'm sure once I get the parts and shims in there it will be killer. 🤙 As for HH, I'm sure they're busy, especially having to take support calls from home. I'm sure they'll eventually get back to me and send out some parts. They always have before.👍👊💪
Brilliant honest content 👍 exactly what people need to see before considering purchasing. Breakages & maintenance are all part of the game as soon as you step up to hobby-grade cars. Anyone buying a roller without then checking over the diffs before running it is taking the piss & looking to b!tch for no reason if & when something goes wrong.
Sometimes when you do massive send the truck will be fine and you are like. Wtf how is it still going, other times you do one landing or cartwheel and it breaks straight away. Like my hyper St sometimes I send it for a full hour and it's fine. Other times I drive it across some grass and it rolls over and something breaks. XD. My tekno and xray though, 99/100 crashes they will be fine. Absolutely rock solid kits. The plastic on the race kits are just next level stuff. Mugen and kyosho are also extremely durable from what I've seen.
Thanks for running the car to run full crashes I hate ppl that bash the car and u prove them wrong would love for u to come down to Meriden to falcon and have a bash session also have a few skateparks we could hit as well
It may need some mods as time goes by but probably hardly any in comparison to the other bashers out there ,my v3 kraton is mostly made up of upgrades that's why it's so good now
Great vid. Yeah those type of people are in every community. Like somebody pissed in their corn flakes. I think they are attracted to causing and being involved in drama for attention.
Haters love to hate, soon as something happens " I'm just going to wait for the v2"😢 Crybaby your not going to buy that one either!!! Great video dude!!! Putting my EXB together right now.
hahaha... got your echo chamber you wanted eh, trump? Ed is overly cynical and sarcastic to a fault. Im sure you heard everything you wanted, reality, it seems, is not as favorable. The fact is, QC on this product is poor. but you're right, lets put aside the hundreds of people having issues and praise the three people that never have problems with Arrmas.
That was harsh! I don’t think there was 3 good landings in the whole video. It is tough as nails. Mine isn’t as overpowered as yours but it has been flawless through about 6 packs so far. Give em hell Ed!
Sounds like a bunch of weenies lmao 🤣 pre Madonnas wanting it to be bullet proof Yaya rear diff... mine blew up after 3 paxks but I mean man up and rebuild it sheeesh I read somewhere like " oh man this thinh is such garbage" people tend to not try it out themselves 1st to say how much something sucks lol my EXB is badass and yaa I broke it already but I mean 😅 it's expected when ur launching it 50ft in the air Sorry RANT OVER lol cool video
Great video!! I love seeing someone show all of the bad landings and what they broke! Keep'em coming!

Nough said ! Great video 😎🏆💯
Great bashing & loved the commentary.
The EXB took one hell of a beating.
Arrma tough baby!

Looks like the bones of this thing are pretty tough. Great video, thanks for taking the time to make it.
The KING is back. Those two lil breaks after all those landings?? that thing is ROCK SOLID.
I would buy one in a heartbeat! The beating that thing took. Thanks for keeping it real & honest bicketybam. Always Love your content 👌 💪 👊
I appreciate that!

Great perspective. I hate it when people hate on good products.
You ever think about throwing some mulch on your landing pad?
Not a bad idea. I will most likely bring in a bunch of topsoil.
@@bicketybamRC Yessir, soften it up with some more compound and you'll be solid.
You nailed it in the commentary👌 great vid glad to see you back at it💯👍

Great video! Mine unfortunately had the rear diff with missing shims.. I’m waiting for the replacement I can’t wait to drive it again

That really stinks. I hate hearing stories like this. I hope Horizon Hobby takes care of you.

Thanks for sharing your bash sessions with the new EXB ! Well done brother 😎👊🚀 Unfortunately there will always be haters ...🙄

The rod ends are not the same as the rtr fyi
Yes they are
@@bicketybamRC I have several kratons and they are 100% not the same. V4 is AR330338 and EXB ARA330608
The V5 and EXB have the same rod ends

Nice vid Ed, lots of peeps love to pile on when the going gets tough.
If you don't mind, could you tell me who on the Arrma forums made that custom fan mount, or did you make it yourself?
Everythign went well until at 9:03 that sounds like diff cracking noise
You're an idiot
@@bicketybamRC .... im just saying what i heard at that specific time if it makes you upset im sorry
What fans did you put on the motor? And are those powered by their own battery?
(Noob question)
Hobbystar fans and they run off the receiver.
It may need some mods as time goes by but probably hardly any in comparison to the other bashers out there ,my v3 kraton is mostly made up of upgrades that's why it's so good now
Nice. We're abusing the hell out of these things. Crap is going to break no matter what 🤣
I love the rant at the beginning the trucks been great but the diff is crap lol
Great vid. Yeah those type of people are in every community. Like somebody pissed in their corn flakes.

What pinion you running now?
Still on the 23t.
Their is too much slack in your shocks, adjust your droop screws and you won't break rod ends.
I did adjust the droop. I think the hit was just too much.
It's a tough truck just had its mishaps on the assembly line
Telling it straight! :) :)

Tired of the Arrma Drama Babies! Arrma seems to have the worst tantrum throwing fan boys, it is a shame.
True though
This newest batch of the exbs are fixed
Let me get hold of that thing. I’ll show you how it’s done 🤣. My team associated ld pos-3.873-48”xtr will kill that thing🤣🤣🤣🤬
Sounds like a bunch of weenies lmao 🤣 pre Madonnas wanting it to be bullet proof Yaya rear diff... mine blew up after 3 paxks but I mean man up and rebuild it sheeesh I read somewhere like " oh man this thinh is such garbage" people tend to not try it out themselves 1st to say how much something sucks lol my EXB is badass and yaa I broke it already but I mean 😅 it's expected when ur launching it 50ft in the air
Sorry RANT OVER lol cool video
