Glad you are testing them to their limits and mostly on stock parts. Very surprised that arms, shocks and rod ends didnt break. Given these trucks are so heavy, there is no chance it could survive jumps that high and concrete landings, but it held up extremely well. Im very convinced in normal bashing these should be very durable.

Mate I bought a tlr Typhon nearer the start of the year and the servo died twice straight out the box. Replaced it like for like after the first run and it died straight away again on its second run. So had to replace with an upgrade which was £48. The buggy was like £700 and it couldn’t even cope with its power on stock parts. Wot a joke!!!! How can spectrum get away with this over n over the servos aren’t fit for purpose.

@casey1441 6 ай бұрын

In my personal experience, I have only seen one 8s Kraton chassis bend. That’s because we were trying to jump it over a tree, and kinda missed and the truck landed on a big branch. I think people should give the metal chassis a little more credit, because Kev runs everything on skate parks, which is incredibly tough on everything. (Makes durability tests even more impressive) Whereas if you run on dirt, things should last a lot longer. 🙂

Kev I work at a hobby shop and sold tons of vehicles there one thing I have seen with arrma is that the end points are never set up from factory which stressing out all the electronics just something you should know any customer that buys one I always set it for them and haven't seen any come back with issues like yours, and yes I have arrmas I beat the crap of lol my chassis are all silver not black as out of the factory 😂

@barbedwirerat661 6 ай бұрын

Appreciate that you ran it stock first, then tossed in some modest upgrades and ran it again (well the electronics aren't really modest but those had to go in at that point!) before perhaps going full beefcake as you might be doing later. Skate parks sure are brutal on these heavy, large scale aluminum chassis RCs. Still fun to watch you give these trucks a go there...better your trucks than mine LOL!

Arrma really just needs to send some engineers out to visit you and have you test their trucks early and fix the things they end up breaking. It's such an easy solution/idea I'm shocked Arrma hasn't done it already.

@grant_vine 6 ай бұрын

Because a substantial amount of their income is in supplying spares…?

@Singuy888 6 ай бұрын

When you have something that's 30% heavier than the Traxx, the amounts of energy being exerted on the parts increase substantially. I think these class of Arrma cars will just have to deal with more breakage than normal, which makes it high risk higher reward if people are into that kind of things. Also plays into that theme when the parts are more expensive too.

Maybe calibrate the neutral point in the esc to your servo tester so the esc doesn't think you're trying to change the settings by switching it on while holding the throttle, (most escs allow this to set them up for new handsets and receivers)?

Firstly you should try some double stick tape in between the components and the metal base to try to help with the absorption of the impacts. Secondly if those electronics died it's most likely due to a cold solder joint come in loose. I would imagine if you opened them up and resolder them you could probably save yourself quite a bit of money.

You can, but it's a bit silly. The size of the motor shaft is the limiting factor, you're going to be fighting to keep those from spinning or snapping the shaft. Not to mention that the current requirements would be brutal. It's much better to start with larger brushless motors, because even though that motor might look massive for RC, it's a little baby motor.
