Awesome bud! I’m glad the video was helpful! Thanks for watching man

Thanks buddy I really appreciate that and I’m glad videos are helpful and you enjoyed them

You’ll have a lot of fun with it on 4s it’s a blast.

Glad it was helpful bud

Well that’s good you got a new plate on the way, but I’m glad the video was helpful buddy and thanks for watching

Glad it was helpful buddy thanks for watching.

Thanks buddy I appreciate it

Thanks I appreciate it man

Thanks buddy

I’m glad it was helpful buddy I appreciate it

Nice mine has been working great. Thanks buddy

Thanks bud

Yeah so far mines holding up pretty good.

@@BarstoneRC Help or question. I too want to take the 3S slippedrto a 4S like you did. I am confused if the 4S should have a brass lock nut or using whatever plastic one that comes out the stock 3S (not brass)...was that what you were pushing in. Sorry never soon one or done one yet? Did you need or use thread locker? Thx

I didn’t add anything different to mine

Awesome buddy glad it was of help.

Yeah that might be a little bit overkill LOL

@@BarstoneRC yeah haha I was curious though truthfully it seemed to have Torque but wasn't that fast think i had a 18t pinion on it

@@BarstoneRC so anyhow I ordered a hobbystar 3670 3050kv motor and a surpass hobby 3670 2850kv gonna test them both

Let me know how they work out and how you like it.

@@BarstoneRC will do, trying to figure a heatsink/ fan to use for them. Any suggestions?

Yeah, some crashes kitten and things a lot faster than others lol but it comes with the hobby

Lol I tried keeping it cranked down but I ended up breaking driveshaft too often on the Kraton 4s, depending on how you’re running it that slipper Hass to work a little bit

I do the same but at the expensive of blowing axleshafts constantly

Thanks for watching bud

@@BarstoneRC it's awesome to see the wrenching videos they help so much going to change out my pinion grear on 3s typhon I see how easy it is to pull it out thanks again bud

You just need to put the BLX 120 ESC edit the stock motor can hold up pretty well to it I’m still running mine

Yeah, as soon as that played gets bent, it destroys your gears unfortunately

@@BarstoneRC I'm a bit surprised something else didn't break or bend before the energy was transferred to and bent that plate, but maybe it was designed that way. To transfer to what should be a strong part and generally not bend, but still be replaceable and sacrificial in cases that it does. I will say, the ease of working on modern ARRMA vehicles takes a lot of the headache out of RC repair/replacing parts. My last RC was a Helion Dominus 10TR and I felt like most of the time with that car to repair anything, you had to disassemble at least half of it and it was tons of screws. Definitely appreciate the more modular design of the 3S line.

I’ve ran mine for over a year and haven’t broken anything else yet

@@BarstoneRC Granted, my upgrades were done on the Vorteks which is a bit heavier and could be why more things are bound to fail. My big rock is stock and holding up well

@@KoryFPV it seems 3s too makes wear and tear to spurgear. it wears out sooner or later so good to have metalspur ready.

Man I'm thinking real hard about getting the big rock looks like fun

Yeah that’s not a bad idea, should last you for a little bit.

I recently put the M2C hub kit on it but the truck is just a blast on for us lots and lots of fun

@Bars&tone RC I'm with you there. This is my first model grade rc vehicle and I absolutely love it. The only problem is round here; there are not a huge number of places to run it and really let it rip. So I'm looking into buying some land and building an RC Arena. Cars, helicopters, planes and possibly drones. If I can get a permission maybe a boat lake too.

That would be a lot of fun to have an area totally dedicated to everything RC.

@@BarstoneRC Would you happen to have a link to this kit? Is it a kit that makes the truck wider?

I ran it for a year like this never had a single problem, but I did hear the same thing. Not sure why I never encountered that.

No even on 3S it’s a great idea you don’t have to worry about stripping this thing out. It’s a good upgrade either way you run it.

No, I never ran into any issues from this upgrade, and I beat the snot out of this thing

@@BarstoneRC awesome thank you for the reply. Good content creator 👍 thanks homie

I haven’t had any problems at all it’s been running great.

Yeah even on the 4s Kraton uses the same slipper pads.

Yeah even on the 4s Kraton uses the same slipper pads.

@@BarstoneRC Ok good to know! I THINK i might need to add a 4th to my hot racing spur gear for my Granite. For some reason unless I tighten the screw almost all the way down the entire unit is "loose" and wiggles around too much. I didnt have this issue with the arrma steel spur gear that I put in my Typhon lol

Yeah, but for the type of driving I like doing it’s just not fast enough like that

It’s made for 3s what you chatting about mate. 4s maybe not

It will make a little more noise and a tiny bit hotter but is your mesh set to tight! If it is it will cause more heat.

I’ve been running the Ovonic 5200mah 80c

Did you check and make sure there’s no old broken pieces of the spring down inside?

@@BarstoneRC Thank you for the advice. I will check.

None at all been working great.

I have the BLX 120 ESC in mine

@@BarstoneRC oh thanks don’t wanna fry my ESC lol 😇😬😎

Are the threads are stripped out on the one side of the slipper?

I kept the same amount of pads it came with stock on the new steel one and I haven’t had any issues.

Its advised to add an extra slipper pad BUT if you have no issues i dont see why you couldn't run it as is 👍

Yeah I’ve been running mine without the extra one and it has been solid.

@@BarstoneRC Right on Right on 😎 Im still having issues with my damn input gears. Im upgrading to metal on those soon here also lol

Check your motor mount plate to see if it's got a slight bend in it

Yeah if it’s bent it will cause other problems

Are you talking about the slipper plates have play in them and that part is not getting tight? I’ve heard rumors that some of them had to have an extra plate installed I did not need to do this on mine but it might be on yours?

@@BarstoneRC thats what i fount out aswell that it needs extra plate on 1 side where its single but thank you

Sounds like your ESC is going bad unless something is bound up?

@@BarstoneRC sorry what could be bound up I’m a noob to this I have stripped and checked the rear diffs and have refitted the spur gear back I your video wheels seem stiffer when moving than before is there a way to reset the esc in any way thanks for responding need all the help

Is your mesh set too tight on your pinion and spur gear? Or is the aluminum plate that the motor mounts to bent?

@@BarstoneRC the aluminium plate was bent I have changed it for a new one and plastic housing

What is the mesh ? Is that the red aluminium plate

Yeah but it’s. Not a full 4s car. Still a 3s besides the ESC. It’s working great so far.

Hmm, that's what I kept reading too. I know what you mean, the 3S metal spur kinda acts like a 4S one so it needs 4. I'm no expert, but trying to figure it out.

@@Funcentric I'm confused as well. Hard to find an official statement. did you figure out the answer?

Well I have been beating the snot out of mine for a few months now and still have had zero problems.

@@Flupke76 not really but I have 4 in mine. As long as it runs okay I suppose.

No not at all most cars are metal to metal so it’s normal

@@BarstoneRC thank you sir. I'm at the hobby shop as we speak.

I never put one in and mine has been great.

@@BarstoneRC Thanks for the super fast response!

No problem bud if there is anything I can answer I’ll try and help

Stock motor with the blx120 esc

I never did that. I never had a single issue, but I’m not saying my way was right or wrong lol.

@@BarstoneRC yeah but when I didn’t add the extra slipper pad, I couldn’t get the slipper clutch to tighten up all the way and then it just came apart. The slipper plate the little brass fitting on the back popped off that’s not supposed to happen right?

New clutch hub

I honestly don’t know of what upgrades there are for the slipper

The big bore shocks

@@BarstoneRC do you know If the 6s typhon shocks will be direct fit? Seems closest in length to me

I’m trying to remember which combination I use it was shocks for one model and front shocks from a different

No they don't

No it was due to it running on 4s and normal wear b

@@BarstoneRCIt's common to get slight bends in the motor mount..You won't even notice it until you take the motor mount plate out ..It will cause spur gear to strip and or bearing to wear out prematurely..I've had a hand full of 3s Arrma's and everytime the spur let go the motor plate was the culprit..Now I'm not trying to tell you what to do or anything I'm just giving you a suggestion..Take it how you will..Have a good one

No man I get what your saying I’ve had that happen many times on my 3s cars I was just saying that it’s not the problem, I did ck that because I have bent them so many times.

@@BarstoneRC Ok..You have to take the plate out in order to check it..Have a good one man..Rc4life

How bent does the motor mount need to be to cause problems? Mine was a tiny bit bent. Could barely see it. Maybe half millimeter gap under the middle of the plate.

That’s strange if you put it back together the same way you took it apart?

@@BarstoneRC I figured out what I did wrong and now I got that back together but now it slides into place but will not click in the place. If you know what I mean like no matter what I do it won’t let me attach the whole assembled slipper, clutch, and everything to the output and it’s all very clean. There’s nothing in the way. Oh I don’t. I just don’t get it.

I have the 4s esc “blx120” with stock motor. If and when the motor dies then I’ll change that out.

I’ve heard people had to run the extra pad I never put mine in and mine runs just fine and I’ve never had any issues with it

@@BarstoneRC do you have a install vid for the spektrum 120 amp esc your using on bigrock? Have u had issue with diffs with those tyres? Can you do a vid if u even have a issue pls

The ESC was a direct swap out there was no modification needed and no I haven’t had any problems with the car or those tires the car has been running great

@@BarstoneRC do u have the model number for the spektrum? Also what spoiler is that and howd u fit it?

It was a blx120 and the wing is from a Typhon 3s I believe

This was the truck that was released last year

@@BarstoneRC mt10 vs team corally skewer what 1 has best drive train most durable

Well, I don’t have the MT 10 yet however, my tekno et48 2.0 I have had excellent luck with the drivetrain

I don’t know what’s up with those letters KZfaq is not deciphering my words properly.

@@BarstoneRC maybe it is struggling to translate American to english😂😂 of course this is just a meaningless joke.

Our language is so butchered lol I don’t doubt it.

@@BarstoneRC lol

What grinds

It’s the stock motor

@@BarstoneRC i know but what KV motor do you have i need to know because i will buy this similar rc car

It a 3200kv

@@BarstoneRC what is the pinion size for the motor?

That I’m not positive on without opening it up, but I think of 15

4s esc and a steal Spur gear

Blx120 esc

Thank you 🙏

Stock motor?

Yep

The mount release tab?

Thanks bud I really appreciate it.

Yeah, I’ve heard this before from a few other people and I wonder what changed. I never had any issues with mine.

Yeah those bearings get quite a work out.

@@BarstoneRC 6 hard bashes and toasted both those bearings and seized the motor lol Arrma tuff can’t handle Jamie bashing lol 😝 super fun truck though I got the whole thing warrantied so I’m happy will have a new one in 2 days

Yeah that’s one thing I really love about Arrma is there warranty in customer service it’s second to none.

@@BarstoneRC I bought mine on Amazon and they have 30 day for defects pretty amazing warrenty considering I wrecked the body too

Yeah you definitely can’t beat that!
