Thanks so much Brother David 😜!!! Super excited about this new EXB Roller 😱. Just got her all ready to roll and gave her the first test shakedown in the street 👀. The new tires are so friggin meaty 😂. Planning to get some dirt time in tomorrow. So happy you saw your stickers Brother 😍. Very grateful and honored to have them on display. Appreciate the kind words as always my friend!!!! 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

Thanks Kimberly 😍. I'm stoked with their response to feedback and attention to detail 😱. Didn't mention it, but the shocks don't get tugged on either. Seems like the arm platforms actually rest on the chassis ears cleanly now 👀. Excited to try her out very soon 😘🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

@@wolverine7326 I thought they put new more beefy arms on her?!

@@andreimschnee sorry I just removed his negative rant before seeing your question 🤣. I'm kinda fed up with the over critical BS. The A arms look like the updated beefier version 2 ones. I'm not 100% certain, but that's what my eyes are telling me. 🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 thank you rich for always answering my questions and keeping it neutral! Excited for your electronics on the 8s EXB!

@@andreimschnee you're most welcome Brother 🤗. Just tuned the center diff, fitted the 39 spur, and got my electrics and final gearing sorted 👍. Hopefully shoe goo that beautiful body after work tomorrow. Would've done it today but it rained. Definitely an outdoor project with those toxic fumes 😂

Lol

I KNEW YOU WOULD YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Can’t wait to see your video Kev!

Damn you're quick Kev 😂. Stoked you're getting one Brother. 😎💪👊👊

Give it hell kev!

Thanks so much Brother 😜. I didn't know it was coming until my wife found a BIG box 😂. Just finished a 4 day work set. Super excited to get her out soon 👀🍻😎💪👊👊

So what electronics would you pick die this setup?

Thanks so much Brother 😜!!!! Felt great to get out and rip the Kraton's around 😍🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Jon 🤗. I'm also looking forward to seeing Kev's take on this one. Hopefully he'll give it a fair flogging 😱🚀🚀. Running a rig this Big at a skatepark is sketchy as heck 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks Lucas 🤗. I tend to have straight forward titles and screenshots. I'd probably have a bigger channel with flashier clickbait crap, but that's not my style 🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 that’s why I have enjoyed all the vids . No crazy intros, or jabber , just hard core rc rips. Been checking out your ( brother?) and his stuff to . Getting some awesome tips of both you guys . 👍

Thanks so much dearest Brother Thomas 😍. Had such a Killer time out there 🥰🥰🥰. Both rigs were dialed and running tight. V3 had fresh center diff, bearings, rebuilt motor, and new pinion 👌. She was screaming with the 24T and LP's. Temps good too 🤗🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

That's awesome Steven 🤗. She truly is a Beast Brother. Her size is fairly nuts compared to a the standard 1/8 Kraton 👀🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 yeah! With my lack of vision any big scale would be great! The biggest I have is 1/10scale. Apparently it is the old arrma granite voltage 2wd mega! So I definitely will be getting a newer rc that is 4wd and. Bigger!

Thanks so much Ervin 😜. I was so stoked to get my V3 back out again with freshly rebuilt center diff, bearings, and motor 😍. My 1480 hadn't been cleaned up for about 3 years 😂. Such a screamer!!!! The 6s line has so much potential. Really appreciate the kind words Brother.🍻 🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Brother 😜!!!! Had a Blast rippin around out there as always. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

Thanks so very much Nick 😜. So stoked to get Big Girl and my V3 beefcake Ripper back out 😍. She felt tight and dialed Brother. Thrilled to get this 8s EXB 😱. So nice to see ARRMA listened once again and delivered with key tweaks and updates. Looks like they're serious about taking large scale to the next level 👀. Just tuned the center diff and got her fitted up with electronics. Hopefully shoe Goo that beautiful body tomorrow after work. It's rained the last couple days so the ground should be nice and tacky 😍🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 cant wait to see it man and see what your running in it. When you had the 23t pin and 39t spool with the stock electronics did you find it was getting too hot? Did you cone up with anything for using the rpm arms and being able to set a propper droop? I am almost thinking about making a limiting strap. I had an idea for a chassis but didnt find out if mitch would be down for a custom chassis.

Thanks so much Brother Eric 😜. So stoked ARRMA listened to basher feedback and delivered one again. These shocks and rod ends should definitely take way more punishment 💪. The Big Block Copperhead 2's are much bigger than I first thought 👀. Excited to get a serious test in with them. Felt Killer to get Big Girl and my M2C beefcake V3 back out 😍. She was on rails after a mini rebuild with new motor mount, fluids, bearings, and rebuilt 1480 🥰🥰. First time in 3 years I've serviced that motor I think 😂. Felt great to have the LPs back on her too. Grateful for any RC time lately. Really appreciate it Bro. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Brother Clarence 😜!!!! Hope all is well and still want to visit your backyard bash playground. We have to hook up already. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Eric 🤗. Definitely have to land them all on 4's 👀. Especially going fast or high. Everything has it's reasonable limits of course. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 thanks man for the info, I am a beginner and I bought a kraton8s. But ever time I see your videos I want to buy more RCs. Thanks. 👊✌

Thank you so much Brother 😜!!! Always stoked to get out 🤗. Especially when the rigs are feeling dialed. Really appreciate it. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Armando 🤗. Really appreciate that Brother 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Brother Ed 😜!!!! I'm stoked with the tweaks and bits ARRMA did with this sucker 😍. Definitely listening to basher feedback 👌. Truly appreciate the kind words Brother. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Brother 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Stephane 😜!!!! Can't wait to try this Big Beast out. Hope all is well Brother. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Brother 👊. Super excited to get this Big EXB Beast out for a maiden run 😍. It's raining here again, but should be good by Friday. The ground should be nice and tacky 👌. Had a Blast running my K8s and V3 Bro 😜. Had just rebuilt the center diff plus fresh bearings. She was feeling tight and dialed with the LP's again and 24T pinion. Definitely rippin good with nice temps 👍. Really appreciate the kind words Brother. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Brother 🤗. Truly appreciate the kind words. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Jordan 😜. Super grateful for this EXB Beast 😍. Looking forward to her maiden run. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much my friend 🤗. This platform is super addicting 😍. I was never too interested in large scale until the Kraton 8s came along. Never imagined rigs this size handling so well and taking huge jumps 😱. Not saying they're meant for it, but it's fun as heck 😂. With the right power system and tuning they're pretty impressive. 🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 love it man..This toys are getting monster and bigger..will support you till the end bro✌🏻

Thanks so much Pete 🙂. Definitely love my Kratons 😍👍👍😎💪👊👊

Thank you Brother 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks Brother 🤗. Really appreciate that. Happy bashing!!!! 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Brother James 😜!!!! Definitely some great attention to detail. Super excited to see how the wheels, shocks, and swaybars work out together. We'll see. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

So stoked they beefed up the shocks Brother Aaron 😱!!!! The tires really surprised me 👀. Same size as the XMaxx tires, just with a far thicker carcass and better construction. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

That's awesome Chad 😜!!!! I absolutely LOVE Folsom Lake 😍. Fishing, hiking, mountain biking, or bashing. Such a beautiful place Brother. 🍻👍👍😎💪👊👊

Thanks Brother 🤗. I've only watched the first unboxing video to hit the web 👀. He did a great job too 👍. I'm sure we'll find out more about her soon. Just started raining here, so I'm wrenching 😁🍻😎💪👊👊

We can find spots believe me 😆🤣

Thanks so much Brother 😜!!!! Gotta get this sucker powered up soon 👀. Hope you're liking yours so far. I'm super curious about the new tires, swaybars....etc. Happy bashing my friend. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 yes bro its an awesome crazy beast i love a lot cannot wait your bashing video :)

Yeah I think this was a great idea Chris 🤗. Most swap out the electronics anyways. The stock Spectrum 8s combo is highly efficient though and works Killer geared up in various rigs 👍. Just dropped one in my Infraction with a 29T. 🍻😎💪👊👊

I totally hear you Sachin 👊. Backordered parts sucks big-time. I hate having my rigs down or shelved in disrepair 😝. I've rigged stuff, hammered or straightened parts, reused damaged or worn parts that should've been replaced just to make my rigs whole, or borrowed parts from another rig 😂. It's crazy to me when newer release rigs don't have adequate replacement parts available. Shipping has gone to crap lately and the Chinese New Year seems to play a major factor for many RC companies. Not sure what the answer is, but I agree the problem is ultra frustrating. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thank you Brother 🍻😎💪👊👊

You bet Brother Avery 😜!!!! Shooting for Friday. Curious how she'll handle with the bigger lugs and swaybars. We'll see how she goes. 👍👍😎💪👊👊

No doubt Brother 🤗. I never ask for stuff, but I'm super grateful regardless. Huge fan of this platform (if you've seen previous 8s vids) and excited ARRMA has adopted the tuning and gearing I've ran for awhile now. They truly listen to feedback and keep improving. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Brother Phill 😍. So grateful to get one of these Big monsters 🤗🥰🥰. This was literally a total surprise 👀. Feel truly honored. Hope all is well my dear friend. God bless you 🙏👍👍😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 I am Super. The Bus Driver is really nice (God) always let's me off at the correct stop. Finishing final touches on my studio recording gear. My Birthday was an explosion of unforeseen music gifts. God Bless you Rich you are a True Blessing to the Hobby!🙏🙏🙏

Thanks John 🤗. I wasn't expecting the truck 😱 so I'm borrowing my Outcast 8s system for now 👍. She'll be run ready by tomorrow 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks Mike 🤗. Much appreciated Brother 🍻😎💪👊👊

It's awesome they included the tidbits and gear you need for BIG 1/5 motors and servos 😍 🍻😎💪👊👊

She's one of if not the funnest rig I own Brandon 😜. Especially on 4s with the recent rebuild. 😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Brandon 😜. The 6s rigs are still my all-around favorites, but I've become quite addicted to the 8s platform 😍. They're really a different kind of experience. Not as quick or agile as their little brothers, but quite Beastly on gnarly terrain 👀. Finding good spots makes a huge difference in motivation and overall fun factor. I enjoy running just about anywhere, but it's far more compelling when you find a spot that can challenge you. 🍻😎💪👊👊

I just bought an xmaxx 8s and You're right it is pretty sweet on rough terrain. I haven't handled any of the other 8s rigs, but I love how my smaller rigs handle when they are absolutely flying around. They're just crazy fun.

Thank you Brother 😜. I love switching between the different scales 😍. Hope your rig turns up soon. 🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 yeah I can't help loving all scales when talking RC cars, I even have a HSP 1/24 monster I'm converting to 3s brushless, iv have a modded one already but I broke a front knuckle doing a quad flip 😅 power to weight ratio is just nuts!! I don't think I need to tell you to keep bashing, your onto it! 😁🤘👍

@@rccrazy that's friggin AWESOME Brother 😱. A 1/24 on 3s 👀. Sounds almost ludicrous 🤣🤣. That's the joy of RC though. Endless setups and possibilities 😍

@@richduperbash2966 It is ludicrous 🤪 good thing I called my channel RC crazy🤣🤘👍

Thanks so much Brother Dennis 😜!!!! It's funny because I was literally out bashing my Kraton's when this box showed up at the house 😂. Of course my wife never said anything, just pushed it in the entryway 👀. Had such a Killer time with both Big Girl and my rebuilt M2C V3 Tank 😍. That air was a lay back. Almost a complete backflip then stall/brake until she turns back the other direction on her own. Looks crazy from that angle 😂. Truly appreciate the kind words as always Brother. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

Thanks Josh 🤗. Planning to drop my Hobbystar 980kv 56112 with Max5 in for now. Probably 32/39 gearing with these wheels. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Heck yeah you have the King Jordan 😜!!!! I stole my title from the Horizon product description 😱🤣🤣. I LOVE my 6s EXB Brother!!!! Happy bashing. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 Rich, 2 moters one 800kv the other 1100kv which is faster? Is 800 kv a good choice for a 1/5 scale? Thx ✌️

@@jordannovek2911 the 1100 will be faster than the 800 on the same gearing. The 800 will have greater efficiency being lower kv (and greater torque). Really boils down to final gearing. I'd recommend 34/34 or 39/39 with the 800. Not sure on the 1100 🤔. Maybe 28/47 to start with. 🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 Thx for the help. I really appreciate that. Peace ✌️

Thanks Curtis 🤗. That sucks having anything stolen Brother 😝, especially a nice rig 😢. I had my car busted into in the parking structure while at work once. They took everything 👀. I don't leave anything in my car now. Just not worth it. 🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 oh man I knew better but I’ve been living here smaller city my whole life and have never had anything taken from my vehicles, oh well $1300 dollar lesson learned lol

Thanks Griffyn 🤗. I have had good luck with mine, but my weather is warm here too. Running droop screws and softer suspension seems to help. The updated arms are fairly beefy. 🍻😎💪👊👊

I'm hoping ARRMA will consider a large scale buggy option 😍. The current bracing system presents some challenges for fitting a traditional low slung buggy body 🤔. There's no question I LOVE my Typhons though Brother 🍻😎💪👊👊

LMAO 😂🤣😂. Your absolutely right Brother 😜. She cracked me up with "What is that thing" 🤷‍♀️🍻😎💪👊👊

She truly is Frank 😱. Can't wait to run her in the next few days 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Dan 😊. The shocks and turnbuckles should be a direct fit 👍. I'd go with 2 sets of rears though cuz the Kraton fronts are slightly shorter, just like the RTR K8s. 🍻😎💪👊👊

I bought my plastic ramps awhile back from Discountramps.com. Unfortunately, they've been backordered for over a year now. Not sure if they've been discontinued 🤔. I built my bigger ramp. It's 30" tall, 60" long, and 40" wide. The angle is about 45° near the takeoff. 😎💪👊👊

Brother you nailed it 👊. It pays off to keep mass in mind..... always. Too heavy takes from speed, agility, and can hurt overall durability and tax your electronics. I always recommend 5 basic upgrades for the RTR rigs. Aluminum chassis supports, servo mount, Tbone or RPM front bumper, and RPM rear skid plate 👍. I also really like the ARRMA 6s EXB bumper. The rest truly depends on individual bashing style and preference.The other concept I consider is collateral damage. Essentially, what other supportive components break when a given part fails. For instance, when a rear suspension mount breaks, it often takes the bulkhead with it. For me it makes perfect sense to run aluminum suspension mounts that won't break. Bad enough tower bends will also sometimes bust your bulkhead 👀. It's perfectly fine to upgrade stuff as you go with what makes sense. I have to add though, despite adding a fair amount of low slung mass, running an M2C 7075 T6 4mm Goliath Series chassis is a must for the bashing I like to do. The benefits completely outweigh the extra 100g of weight penalty compared to the stock stamped aluminum chassis. The Lipos, motor, diffs, and center driveline are far more protected. Again it comes down to driving style and preference. 😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 a response as phenomenal as your driving 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Thanks for the awesome content buddy, your passion and knowledge is something I strive to match!

Thanks so much Brother 😜. Happy bashing. 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

Hey Brother 👊. Congrats on the new rig 😱. If I recall correctly, there is atleast 2-3 different spline options included with the kit for different servos. 🍻😎💪👊👊

I'm honestly not sure 🤔. They look like the beefier updated ones from what I can tell. The arms haven't been a problem for me, but weather is mild here near Sacramento. People in colder climates seem to have more of an issue. I'm thinking the sway bars will help some. I've stuck with lighter weight shock oils (30-35 weight), added droop screws, and smooth M2C pistons in my Kraton and Outcast 8s. Softer suspension seems to help🍻😎💪👊👊

The parts should be a direct fit 👌. I'd use 2 sets of rear shocks as the Kraton fronts are a tad shorter like with the RTR version. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much John 🤗. I've had Killer luck with my LPs 👍. Have 2 sets (both vented) that I've been running for a long time now. I've had to touch up the glue beads periodically after hard runs. Especially, if I slide into rocks...etc. That really goes for all my tires though. No rips or cracks. I have had the full size 6s Backflips rip off the beads before. Aside from tuning the center diffs between 200-500k, I've found it helps to do a tire check the night before and drop glue anywhere I see separation starting. Bob Smith Industries rubberized CA glue can fix rips. I've used IC2000. 🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 thanks for the reply much appreciated👍

Still haven't tried mine yet, but they're Crazy beefcake 👀. They use M5 rod ends 💪. Springs feel a bit stiff, but I'm sure they break in. 🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 i have no other builds big enough for those things. maybe the 1:1 scale ford Focus in the driveway. 😂😂🤜🤛

@@rogueFactor LMAO 😂

I will buy HV Lipos from Hobbystar if they're on sale, but haven't noticed any measurable performance gain. Another consideration is your charger has to be HV equipped or you won't be able to exceed 4.20 volts per cell anyways. 😎💪👊👊

24 t , and it doesn't over heat, how???

@@korkiyawatson3055 I'm running a 1480kv 4092 high torque motor with smaller than stock wheels. Checked temps 3 different times. The hottest I got was 155F motor, 130 ESC. I normally run a 16T tops with a stock 2050kv Kraton setup and hit around those same temps. 😎💪👊👊

We'll see, but 1mm can make a Huge difference with steel 👀. The V1-V2 6s shocks were 3.5mm and use to bend up pretty easily. The V3 4mm shafts were a game changer. Much smaller platform, but the principal is the same. 🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 You are the man, so I believe you bud. I might just slap these shocks on my Outcast 8s 🤣

I haven't filmed any motor/ESC installs that I can recall 🤔. Lots of others have though. Make certain to clean all hardware with 70% isopropyl alcohol/paper towels and use quality threadlock. Best to give it a full 24hrs to set. Dennis with 3 Son's RC does lots of build vids. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Yes indeed Kris. I switched to M2C as soon as Mitch made the first prototype awhile ago. His pins are a hardened tool steel that don't snap. The Beefcake ones work great, but the Overkill ones have a thicker shaft and neck and are the best for full blown gnarly durability 💪. The 800kv with big tires honestly needs upgraded shafts. I pressed him hard to make them🍻😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 thanks for the reply

Thanks so much Brother 😜!!!! Nothing bent that I've found yet. Ramp sends like that would normally bend an 8s RTR shock shaft 👀. I'm using hardened M2C shafts and pistons with lighter 30-35 weight oil. I did find I'd busted a plastic rod end on the front lower chassis brace. No biggie. They're easy to replace. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Thanks so much Brother 🤗. I built that ramp to just fit in my Honda Odyssey 😂. It's 30" tall, 60" long, and 40" wide. Never thought the "family" van would become my RC wagon, but it works great 🍻😎💪👊👊

LMFAO 😂🤣😎💪👊👊

That's a good way to put it 🤣. There's no question these large scales hit the wallet a pinch more than their smaller brothers. They're a totally different bashing experience too though. 🍻🤙🤙😎💪👊👊

@@richduperbash2966 haha I only say what I see brother and of course expensive to 1 person is chump change to another.
