Dude, I love the fact that you really are enjoying your senton, damn good dude, WOHOOO YEAHHH!!! HELL YEAH BABY WOHHOOO, fantastic buddy, thank you for the video. Good stuff, I was enjoying it too because you were haha.
Took my senton to the park today and had a lot of fun but I’ve never seen so much grass inside of an rc car before, thank god I have an powerful air compressor haha
Scorched parts rc makes an inner fender kit for the senton 3s and the Mojave 6s. Just got the kits for my senton and Mojave. They'll be getting installed real soon. Both these rigs pick up alot of debris.
It really is a blast! Unfortunately my steering servo died on me. Replacing it with something better currently. I love this little truck. I kinda took a chance on it and I'm glad I did. 4s just makes it hella rowdy!
Yeah thats kinda what happened to mine. I even had endpoints set but it just went out. A couple times I had the simple rock getting stuck but then all of a sudden it wouldn't turn or it would turn only slightly. Finally took a look at it and yeah it was jittering basically constantly. Figured it was time to replace it lol. Besides that the truck takes abuse like its nothing
My motor got hot on 3s now matter how I set the gear mesh. Upgraded to a 3670 3050kv motor and the motor stays nice and cool. Still rips like a beast, might try 4s now. I recommend ProLine Icon SCs with 12mm hexes. They've held up on street running for quite a while and theyre also good for offroading.
You're driving it in the same style you used to drive a nitro rc car, don't need to keep blipping an electric car, you should drive it like you drive your car or van you don't keep blipping that vehicle 😅🤠👍😊
@@christiansrcs7789 just a piece of the crash bumper on the front. Its nothing structural. I haven't replaced it since it happened and nothing else broke. It has taken so much abuse its crazy.
I'm running the stock pinion. I haven't changed a thing other than the esc. Seems to work just fine as is. I could see changing it If you're going bigger tires or doing drastic changes but honestly I'm happy with how it is. Motor doesn't get hot and it continues to function as normal.
I think a good upgrade is going to be a bigger tire. I hear you can run big rock or granite tires. Can't wait to try new tires and I like the 4s set up.
Yeah man. You just don't want to go to big or small without changing up the gearing. For the most part it will be fine. 4s is crazy fast. It's great. Thanks for the comment.
i just did a 4s spektrum swap with a esc thats 160 amps while powering the thing with a 4s 10000mha 120c... the thing is a monssster!!!! haD to upgrade trans to full metal, and just blew a tire today.. best thing i have ever done hahahahah
It can get pretty wild. You could adjust the punch setting on your esc if you think the power comes on too strong. Also a 120C battery. That’ll sure deliver a ton of power quick lol.
Yes. You should always go for the highest "c" rating as possible. Unless you want to save money or weight. Your ESC will not pull more amps than it can handle so the higher "c" rating won't hurt it. Basically you're just buying a battery that can safely discharge faster with less heat. The Voltage is the REALLY IMPORTANT part. You definitely don't want to over volt your motor.
@@bigmusclerc5967 funny I just exploded my tires and rims the other day on this thing. She flipped and went to the moon before sliding on her head down the road.
Has anyone tried running a traxxas tsm reciver In the senton. I just bought a hobbywing 120amp but I'm worried it will be uncomfortable. Or does arrma make something like tsm.
Lol same bumper damage and lost clip.. just go to rc store and get more clips .. my tires went bald then finally ripped mine has been wrecked more than yours they keep asking for more
I'm scared of getting rc car with the wheels right underneath the body. Feel like the wheels just throw dirt and rocks right into the chassis and destroy the electronic components.
I mean if you are really worried they make lots of different types of covers and protectors to prevent that from happening. You could also just fabricate your own covers. Regular cleaning is important. Most of the components will be just fine. Just wipe them off lol. You just don't want rocks jamming in gears. The electronics are mostly all sealed up.
@@Scrammy18 Have you ever ran the Senton on tall grasses? If so how does it perform? I love the Senton's look but I'm debating if I should get the Granite since the Granite has much bigger tires and taller which easier to run tall grasses.
I mean this Senton can plow its way through pretty much everything. It just wheelies over it. Running it on 4s is just plain crazy lol but I love it. Sure the Granite is higher but I just prefer the better handling of the Senton. A lot of RCs struggle in tall grass. I can say no matter the terrain I really haven't stalled my Senton. They are two machines kinda for different purposes. They do however share all electronics. You could actually convert any 3s Arrma line to one another by swapping parts. I personally like the lower slung look. If you prefer the taller look then go for the Granite. Personally with either you can't go wrong.
@@danted1329 if you swap out the ESC to the BLX120 you can run 4s with no other mods. It takes about 5 min. Tires wise you can always change sizes. Lots of Facebook groups out there to help you!
Just got mine. Still in box. New to the hobby. Nice ripping! Might upgrade in the future just seeing this 👍🏼
Well I can tell you the Senton is one of the toughest short course trucks around. I putine through hell even on 4s and she just takes it!
Did u upgrade anything
Dude, I love the fact that you really are enjoying your senton, damn good dude, WOHOOO YEAHHH!!! HELL YEAH BABY WOHHOOO, fantastic buddy, thank you for the video. Good stuff, I was enjoying it too because you were haha.
Haha well thanks man. It’s a crazy little RC
Took my senton to the park today and had a lot of fun but I’ve never seen so much grass inside of an rc car before, thank god I have an powerful air compressor haha
For real lol. It's pretty ridiculous lol.

Or you can Velcro an old typhon body inside too
Typhon a-arms front and rear with the 48mm turnbuckles for the camber links and t-rod ends
Definitely would make it pretty sick man
Nice!
I'm suprised the stock motor and plastic spur gear can take that punishment :)
Yeah she's quite the runner man! This thing cab really take a beating.
wow!👍🏻🏎💨💯 awesome rip buddy!💪🏻
Thanks man! I need the weather to get better so I can really open her up at a couple local parks.
Nice!!..I run mine with a Max10 sct and a 3660 4300kv surpass hobby platinum motor on 3s.. it's insane!
It really is a blast! Unfortunately my steering servo died on me. Replacing it with something better currently. I love this little truck. I kinda took a chance on it and I'm glad I did. 4s just makes it hella rowdy!
@@Scrammy18 I'm lucky to have my stock servo after 3 years still buy once in awhile it gets the gitters lol

I blip my throttle all the time, that's how I like to enjoy my trucks😅
@@surfside75 don't sound good though having nitro jerks all the time 🤠
Nice!!. I just might upgrade mines
It's pretty wild man!
This video is the best ever I can’t wait to get mine
Well thanks for the compliment lol. You will definitely have endless fun with it.
@@Scrammy18 have you broke any thang on it? Besides the servo
@@christiansrcs7789 just a piece of the crash bumper on the front. Its nothing structural. I haven't replaced it since it happened and nothing else broke. It has taken so much abuse its crazy.
Does running on 4s kill the run time?
No not really. You could always just get a bigger battery to compensate if needed
Is your drive shafts still holding?
Yep. Hell I gave it 6s for a bit and it’s fine. Only thing that happens is it blows out all the tires.
What spur and pinion ratio are you running
I’ve left it stock and so far nothing has broke. If it does then I’ll replace it with a different size
Punch setting?? Pls explain I’m a noob
Punch all the way up. No reason to keep any of the power you paid for away.
Can you recommend a cheap battery to me? 3s
Zee batteries go for cheaper prices. I use them from time to time. Also the brand RC Power I've had good luck with. They were even cheaper.
those tires shredddd but only if youput a ridiculous amount of power to them
What pinion gear ⚙️ are you running?
I'm running the stock pinion. I haven't changed a thing other than the esc. Seems to work just fine as is. I could see changing it If you're going bigger tires or doing drastic changes but honestly I'm happy with how it is. Motor doesn't get hot and it continues to function as normal.

Yeah man. You just don't want to go to big or small without changing up the gearing. For the most part it will be fine. 4s is crazy fast. It's great. Thanks for the comment.
Just go to your hobby store and ask for new mounted body clips then pop the rubber piece out of the body and you will have new rubber pieces
How many cvs have you broken😁
None so far lol
I just upgraded to the big rock wheels an tires so much better gripe great wider taller
Nice!
You think doing this would increase my power in the vorteks 3s blx
Yes it would!
Are you using the 120amp esc with stock motor?
Yes. Everything is stock. Only changed the esc.
i just did a 4s spektrum swap with a esc thats 160 amps while powering the thing with a 4s 10000mha 120c... the thing is a monssster!!!! haD to upgrade trans to full metal, and just blew a tire today.. best thing i have ever done hahahahah
It’s a fun little rig
No need to upgrade. Get hex adapters so you can add cheaper AT tires. Try Trenchers. 3S wheelies in the street with those tires.
I’ll have to try it!
I run this truck on 3S 6600mAh 120c battery and I can't control it when the remote set 100% too much power and fast.
It can get pretty wild. You could adjust the punch setting on your esc if you think the power comes on too strong. Also a 120C battery. That’ll sure deliver a ton of power quick lol.
Can the arrma take a 3s 5000mah 100c
11.1v
Yes. You should always go for the highest "c" rating as possible. Unless you want to save money or weight. Your ESC will not pull more amps than it can handle so the higher "c" rating won't hurt it. Basically you're just buying a battery that can safely discharge faster with less heat. The Voltage is the REALLY IMPORTANT part. You definitely don't want to over volt your motor.
Rad!
This was great, has your motor held up to 4s?
I has had no issues on 4s
You need to put a 2650kv motor in it you would be amazed
Oh I bet lol. I'll be trying new things so maybe I will.
@@Scrammy18 I have one and it is amazing the only downside you might have to replace your tires I blow out two tires the first time I run it on 4S
@@bigmusclerc5967 funny I just exploded my tires and rims the other day on this thing. She flipped and went to the moon before sliding on her head down the road.
Pro-Line has some nice body caps.. Way stronger and durable.. Check em out
I will for sure!
Has anyone tried running a traxxas tsm reciver In the senton. I just bought a hobbywing 120amp but I'm worried it will be uncomfortable. Or does arrma make something like tsm.
Your local hobby shop should have traxxas replacements
I will look into it! They are just a nice feature. Never really thought about something so simple being so useful ya know?
Try the duratrax 6pk 2.8 MT wheels & tires just got mine the best $70 spent on tires yet car looks super mean👿
I will check them out man!
Lol same bumper damage and lost clip.. just go to rc store and get more clips .. my tires went bald then finally ripped mine has been wrecked more than yours they keep asking for more
This is true. I best the crap out of it and it just wants more.
Cool, now try 8s
I might just have to someday lol
I hate when people goose the throttle so much. Be progressive with it. It's so hard on parts to drive so sporadically.
I mean you’re not wrong but I guess you deal with the consequences of your actions. If you break it you rebuild it lol.
my guy just go to horizon hobby
Ended up at my local hobby shop. All better now lol.
Use a paper clip
Tyres died on first day of owning the car
Yeah lol. They just catch the body shell when accelerating and that typically means they won't last long.
@@Scrammy18 going to try a slight smaller wheel see if that helps
Get to the point bro
5:23 is when it starts...
