as soon as i saw the thumb nail i thought CASTLE CREMATIONS! personally i don’t think castle creations systems are for bashing. they have plenty in of power don’t get me wrong but i’d rather spend by money on a more reliable 1/5/1/6 esc like the MAX5 the prototype xlx2 esc were great but the ones castle has released to the public have been carp sense 3 years so far they have been catching fire an esc gets loads of abuse in basher cars all the throttle control in the air to correct the car and even accelerating from a dead stop (what raz did) the thing still smoked i think castle esc and motor combos are good in speed run cars and crawlers but hobbywing is more reliable in a car like the Outcast 8s EXB as far as my knowledge a old traxxas esc would last longer than a xlx2 in a bashing state of abuse that’s my opinion and your free to have your own

Appreciate the shout out and kind words Raz 🤗. That FG is absolutely Gorgeous 👀. Talk about Beast. Not sure what happened with your XLX2. Think it was probably a bad unit. Should take harsh hits no problem. The locked center diff might be too much for the outdrives though. A little give with straight Silicone ear plugs will probably work better 👍. M2C Overkill outdrives use hardened tool steel pins. Probably far better than GPM. Don't sweat the rough jumps my friend. Find some smooth take offs and you'll get the feel for jumping Big Girl in no time 😍. She's a wonderful rig. Just keep at it my friend!!!! 🍻😎💪👊👊

To be fair everything was fine, Id suggest changing to a hobbywing Max5 800kv setup with 34/39 motor and spur gear. Outdrives need to be M2C Racing or Scorchedparts. Finally when mid air the trigger needs to be fully pressed to make backflips. Center diff with silicone earplugs work a dream 😁👌.

Exact same thing happened to me on my second unit, it stopped moving, cogged, then blew up. My third one was getting ready to blow up after a small impact. It landed on it's roof too, gave me an excessive load error with no throttle. Ran over, took the body off, turned it off, then back on. Smoke came out and I immediately turned it off again. I'm glad I was able to even turn the damn thing off, I almost lost another set of brand new batteries.

This is why when I decided to try building a 2wd slash to try hitting 120mph+ with I used the castle mmx8s. haven't hit my mark yet cause I've literally shattered tranny gears about 8 times so far because of all the power and fact that I blew out 5 tires as well. Lol. obviously i still need to play with settings and whatnot and get the perfect pass working with everything properly just havent had time to rebuild tranny and play with it in awhile. I've had setup for about 9 months now and beat the living shit (about 6 months of everyday abuse) out of the slash with the mmx8s and haven't had a single problem with the power system at all.

You will then be ready to bash with the best of them. It's not your driving. Locking the diff on a basher destroys everything and it needs to give a little. You got this. You're the RC Goat!

Would definitely reach out to Castle about the ESC, just to see what they say. With the diff, I would of used thick silicone earplugs to still allow a bit of movement (given enough force) whilst still driving as if it's locked, and maybe slightly thicker oil in the front diff for better front end pull when drifting around. Drive shafts breaking? All I can say is "GPM", lol

@@deontay79ify that's what I'm thinking, castle creations had made some rc killing motors and esc's over the years, and if this esc wasn't a slight bit of a time bomb, it very well could almost overthrow the hobbywing max esc's altogether, there has to be one main component on the esc's pcb board that is causing this almost outlet sounding pop when it shorts out. The soda can sized motor is very close to the primal rc raminator electric conversion kit, and if castle revises the esc and does some stress testing and locate the problem, this system might be able to be a budget electric conversion kit for the raminator, I am not saying it would 100% work for a kit, but it has potential. For me it's just sad seeing a brand that I've trusted for years of the insane power I crave, slowly, and literally, go up in flames, I'm not ditching Castle yet, I probably wouldn't ever do that, but a thing your so invested into with thousands of dollars put into it to have the most fun since you were younger, burn up and destroy your rc, is not worth the stress of looking at an overdone Thanksgiving turkey. I would be extremely upset. And I'm pretty sure everyone who's had this happen to them is hopefully going to wait until this esc's revised

A lot of people don't like plastic driveshafts in smaller 1/10 scale cars, but they have some advantages, one of them is twisting under high load or shock, so there is less stress on a drivetrain. I had more issues with dog bones piping out, bending and breaking pins than plastic shafts. I am not saying plastic driveshafts are the way to go for big 1/5 scale rcs, or that are better than metal, but they do have some advantage for smaller cars

Great video man. So when you jump your kraton 8s when your in the air if the nose is pointing to the sky tap reverse it will bring the nose down if the back of it is high and the nose is pointing down give it throttle and the back will come down good luck man.

I run m2c drive shafts because I was bending stock ones every session and so far their holding up and are all dead straight after 5 bashes. M2c also have released some thicker ones a few weeks ago so they will be extra durable. I've seen alot of Castle mambas catching fire including Kevin tolbert so for that reason I just run hobbywing. We all have bad landings but the car shouldn't be catching fire. Ditch that Castle esc bro. Your rc cars look hard. Can't wait to see that quad set up running.

There is no other ESC with the power of castle and to be able to turn off all safety modes to pull 600 amps....what's the other options a max5 with 200 amps..it would cut out at 115-120mph

I have a ton of GPM parts on my kraton 8s. From what i've learned, structural parts like tie rods, steering components, braces, hubs, and most of the a arms are great. The drivetrain parts are not so great. The metal is too soft. Even if its nice and solid when you get it, the holes that the pins are pressed into will stretch out under power and they'll loosen up and fall out. Theyre also very easy to bend by hand. Eventually I'll switch to M2C axles/shafts but for the 6 months i've had it the stock axles have been just fine (better than the gpm for sure). I'm running a Max5 and spektrum 5687 1100kv with 30/47 gearing and it has enough power to backflip even the kraton chassis, runs cool, and is rock solid reliable. Maybe consider a hobbywing esc for the basher? I've never melted a castle but maybe i've just been lucky. I've run silicone plugs in the center since day 1 and its been great.

On that OutKast truck, you have to put something soft under the ESC when you mount it. Otherwise you'll damaging your ESC during hard landing jumps. The cushion or foam you use will exsorbe the impact while saving your electronics. l even put foam or sponge padding under my batteries too. Never had on catch fire or get damaged during bashing. It really helps Raz. Can't wait to see what you come up with to fix your problem you're having. You have the most cleanest builds I've seen so far.💪🏾🔥🔥🔥
