Maverick Quantum Flux MT! Old one is still a great bashing rc!
My friend put the furitek motor and ESC
I know it's been a while since you made this video but I see you're still making videos so hopefully you'll still see this comment. So the arm that you broke it was the old arm before the updated versions? Because I've got the new release of the machete with the updated arms and everything and so far dude I have definitely mangled it a couple of times and the only thing that's happened so far is the rear steering knuckle screw came out but all I had to do is take the screw out and put it back together nothing is broken so far and I've hit pretty damn hard not probably that hard but pretty am hard anyway thanks man appreciate the videos lets me see some of the cool stuff that I can do soon
I see your comment. It was the old arm I broke. The new ones have been fine for me.
@therchotspot thank you That's what I thought That's good to hear. I'm getting ready to run mine right now with the new 19 tooth pinion gear and a pretty solidly locked center diff not completely locked but pretty solid so we'll see how it runs
Hell of a backflip bro I'm jealous of shit hahaha!!!!
So far I haven't used my wheelie bar yet I've only rented about four or five times all just kind of playing around practicing with it kind of getting used to it. However today I pulled the center deaf and I packed the shit out of it with ear plug because I didn't have any 20 million dip fluid right now I have one 6S 5200 mi 120 c battery unit and a jumper on the other side and I've got the punch turned up to nine. It absolutely roasts oh and I've got a 19 tooth pinion gear on it first off the 19 tooth pinion gear really makes a massive massive difference I haven't even run it on stock I changed the gear before I ever got the batteries but I have run it on an 18 tooth just seeing how that went and it is noticeably different from the 18 to 19 tooth so I imagine the 15 tooth is even more noticeable. If I can't stand a wheelie now the way it is that I think I'm going to go with like the Max 8 with the G2 combo and the 4278 SD motor because that thing looks like a beast it's more than half the cost of the car itself but I think with that in there this thing will be unfucking stoppable
Those are some huge air jumps really. That's the only thing I'm really missing in my area I don't have anywhere to jump it worth a shit I'm getting ready to build a couple of ramps if it wasn't raining today I would have already been working on it anyway great video
It took awhile for me to find this spot. Just stumbled upon it one day. Thank you!
You're 110% correct if they would make a true 8th scale version of this truck they would be flying off the shelves. 👍 And that's a guarantee. Because I have the same truck that you're driving right now and I really really love it. Even for its size it drives like a big truck.... I hope you're listening Rlaarlo.
Textbook.
Sick video dude appreciate you trying this setup for everyone 🙌🏻
Thank you!
Having fun is a perfect reason to be out 😎
For sure!
Sweet run and I totally agree I love RC and most RC channels just promote new cars. The reason Im into RC is the FUN lol keep having fun bro and you got some sweet air on those jumps peace✌👊
Thank you! It just feels like some guys just aren't having fun. Just out here pushing product. We gotta keep it fun!
I have no confidence in that ESC, but have you measured the voltage drop across the battery leads when pushing the motor with some resistance? I wonder if the battery is able to actually keep up.
No I havent. Only did one run with it so far on brushless
@@therchotspotI would say it’s probably the esc. I have my micro b on the hobbywing mini 28 brushless motor and esc and it boogies on stock battery lol
I agree.
2nd
late to the party but mine had a hot battery with stock tires lol i think with an esc upgrade it would love these more. i had these tires on my traxxas rustler
The motor is fine, but the problem is that ESC. It's a non-programmable crawler ESC so it's stuck with crawler settings. Ideally you want the drag brake off or around 5-10% not 90-100% like these ESCs have. You also want brakes, which these ESCs don't have, they instead have instant reverse. It works in a pinch, but it's far from ideal with that ESC for sure.
Agreed. I just figured I’ll use it right now as I didn’t really have anything else. But I might have something coming!
Hey bud I love your videos! Shoot me an email so we can talk RCs for a bit. 👍
Sent! Look forward to it! Thanks for watching!
Dang that’s a small battery
Thanks for the tip. Annoying that they are only currently selling the whole assembly. Much rather only replace the parts I need to.
I’ve learned that you have to take the whole middle piece of the back wing off! Tie strap your suspension down to ensure no flipping!
I just picked this bad boy up, just over a week ago. The hobby shop in my city had an anniversary sale. After a couple runs (nothing crazy, some lil jumps and dirt course) and I love it. I am an a newbie to rc, and have a few cars. This one is in the top of my favorites. It suits my style of driving and excels in the environment that i have available for me to rip around in.
Thats awesome!
Just found this video. Ive got several Arrma rc's and my youngest son is just getting into them now. This is on sale for super cheap right now. It's been 3 years since this video was posted, has this truck held up?
Yes. I have 2 of them. I let my kids and their friends play with them. Still holding up great!
Your gears are way to tight 😮😮
@@richardbrown6762 no they are not. I explained it in the video.👍🏾
You can get a good reliable mjx hyper go for a lot less than that. 16th scale yet. So I don't see the bargain😮
At the time this video was released 3 years ago, mjx hyper go wasnt on the scene like that and the price in the link was much cheaper...
Also side note, 3 years later and I still haven't broken this yet. Nor have I done maintenance. I just give it to my kids to rip around the yard. So it's been very reliable for me
Nice, that's also good for a driveway.
Absolutely
Probly the most fun u can have with a 100 💯 spent in the rc world and I think these little cars will be a blast ....
I'm having a lot fun with mine!
The mess sounds awful
Explained why in the video.👍🏾
@The RC Hotspot Hi, If you only know how wrong you are and the magnitude of the person referenced, you might rethink things! Mr. New One!
@@johnathenbates2929 what?
Who was referenced?
Bro dont ever put redcat parts on team associated ever agin 😂 , redcat is dumpster fire
Hope that's a joke. Thats the only way the MT8 didn't break. Team Associated parts at the time was trash for this car. I did a couple videos about that. Besides they are practically the same car! Lol
@therchotspot that's because you ran the truck on 6s witch is too much anyways . That's the problem with the hobby they're putting to much power in these vehicles witch does nothing but ruin the rc. You can't Even reach the top speed on 6s because it can't remain stable and bashing on 6s is ridiculous that'll break any rc why send your rc 25 feet In the air and expect it not to break . I have an mt8 and I run it on 4s and haven't broken a single part since I've had it . I think it's just a 6s problem . I agree the plastic are a bit brittle but that's good for racing witch is what team associated is known for. That red cat is garbage that's probably why you're stripping all the parts off of it 😆 . Great video though bro not hating on you just hating on redcat lol
I know you aren't hating on me, but not sure why you are hating on Redcat. I didnt strip parts off my kaiju because I didnt like it, lol. I did it because they are more flexible and I wanted to give people options on what to use. I also did it so I could get content out fast without waiting for parts at the time. In fact I still have both Kaijus, bash them both, and got rid of the MT8. Bashing on 6s is what the truck was marketed for so that's what I did. I agree, 4s is enough for the truck, but plastics being brittle had nothing to do with the power. Sending it only 10 to 15 ft in air is what broke it and you can do that on 4s or 6s. We aren't talking about moving parts that broke, we are talking about plastic arms that couldn't take the stress of 10 to 15 ft jumps. My Kaijus can and still do. But I know there some out there don't have problems with the MT8. Maybe or driving styles are different, maybe the dont what I was doing. Who knows, but for my experience and driving, the Redcat parts worked better. I'm glad you are one of the ones who didn't have problems with yours. Happy to hear people are still enjoying the car.
Just wondering how much did it cost
Not sure. I think it was $109 but that was 4 years ago
Good idea may do this to my eco amp mt
Go for it!
You haven't had any trouble with the plastic axles? And so, she has a bad Hobbywing ESC. Where does that now put the reliability factor on this Redcat? Another Redcat that can't even take it's rating. You had this problem and did all that other work anyway? I'd of had that back in the mail sending it back to wherever it came from. Especially if I paid for it. No one's paying me to sort out their problems.
@dannysdailys I haven't had any problems with the driveshafts. As far as the ESC goes, I needed to see if it was the batteries I was using, the adapter for the battery, or something I was doing first like the grass I was driving in etc. Doing the work is part of the joy for me. Besides, this truck has been a tank. Aside from the esc problem I had, it takes punishment. It is good truck and I have other escs to use if needed
@@therchotspot Batteries you were using? You had a 4s battery in a 4s car, yes? How long have you been doing this? You didn't answer my question, is Redcat going to replace your bad ESC? All I hear is how great they are for service. What kind of warranty does it have?
Yes its a 4s battery but c ratings have a lot to do with it. Some escs can run 4s but at a lower c rating. Also I was running a battery adapter and in taller grass which all could have been a factor. This was the second of the videos I did for this car so I was still figuring it out. Not everyone has had the same issue as me. And in your comment you didn't ask if I got the esc replaced. You asked about reliability in which I responded by saying "aside from the esc problem I had, it takes punishment". Anytime i have had an issue and said something to Redcat the have been good replacing it. You can look back at my videos I did 2 to 3 years ago ( been doing it videos for awhile, rcs even longer) on my Kaiju ext and the problems it had. Redcat was good about sending out new parts. This is the first time I have had issue with any of their electronics. Not sure what is upsetting you, but thank you for watching the video.
I will be taking this out soon but to a different spot. If I continue to have problems with the esc, I will let Redcat know, and you will see an update on the channel
Both are beasts. Thanks for sharing.
Probably your batteries, or charging method. I had small issues with the esc, but it was the way I was charging the batteries. I get about 25 minutes per pack, 5200mah 6s now. My current issue is the wheels won't stay on!!!!😮 I've said it in other posts, the body is butt juice👎🏾
same EXACT spot where my pin and support came out of mine. Tires exploded also. 1st time running 6s. 😂
Ya bro. That body ain’t gonna last even with all that reinforcement they put on there the front hood and grill spot gonna get all smashed up. But the bed will stay just fine. On the shocks. I put 55 in my shocks. The replacements ones they sent and I haven’t had a problem with them at all since. And I put mine like 30 feet in the air everytime I go out. Other than that these lil rigs are tuff as rusty nail. I have found every time I run my higher charge rate batteries it will cut off like urs did. But when I run like a 50c it’s cool. I love the Valkyrie. It’s a fun lil truck.
Need to message them and let them know. I have both versions and are keeping them updated. It seems like they really appreciate the feedback and any problems I have they replace and solve the problems as soon as they can free of cost. When you have problems or find weak points, they want to know to improve the first company that ever asked me to keep them updated and seem to appreciate it
I did that a lot before with the Kaiju ext release. They are really good with fixing the problems
Why doe's ur motor make that noise will it cause sounds pretty cool. And do they onmy go 20mph with the regular setup?
Omg that laugh sounded like it was little car motor at first. But nice shit man.
Nah it smells good, if it smells anything like real tires it smells good, I’d get a candle of it
Oh, it was a good smell for sure! I love burning rubber!
What gps are you using
amzn.to/4eEd8o6
Haaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!
And they both drive so well on the ground I feel/ wish I should get another of each Just to swap out their shocks to the other one and see say How the Kronos handles with the thicker fluid filled and piston set up’D shocks of the Kagama tho the lighter chassis set up of the 7075🤌🏿😏 And the Kronos shocks on the Kagama that has no 7075😊😊 but to see how the weightier Kagama does with the lighter Kronos shocks Their was something Immediately noticable when I 1st tried the Kronos So much more supple over the ground I ran/run It has more bounce to the ounce🤤🤤
Have you run the Kagama unsensored as yet How did it go😊
Not with this system but I had the stock system in it for awhile. Really the only reason I changed it is because I wanted to be more aggressive on gearing and the stock system got hot
@@therchotspot oh I see So with myself I got to a 15t on stock set up out the box and I didn’t really like it as much as going back to a 13t I think really it’s NoT the same as heating up on an Arrma 150 system you have much more gear up ability there but just not soo much on corally And I have had a max6 in the Gama also think that was a 14t pinion. Yet that felt good on stock motor also Hmmm😏
I actually feel like the Corally system is better, but with the tires on the Kagama and the grass I run on, it just was getting to hot for the gearing I wanted to run.
@@therchotspot I totally hear you 😎
🤦🏿♂️ and my G Thanks for sharing the show 👊🏿
Appreciate you watching!
Regalamelo😢
The only thing with stock either of your dope trucks is that it’s like they come set up for hobbywing mainly esc as they screw in👌🏿 I have seen some folk use sticky tape and still it comes out on a tumble iron jump The Kronos drives a lot lighter than the Gama and you can actually DRIVE IT THRU CORNERS, it more supple for sure To have both is awesome
Word is max6 is nice for running 6s . Bluetooth was cool ? Yeah , I could use a good tutorial .
Thank you for the feedback!
Man , I’ve had a max6 here for weeks now and where did you plug the motor fan ?
Plugged it into the receiver
Great to see the Kronos getting some love. Love seeing the older Corallys getting to come back out for a rip.
Absolutely love the Kronos xtr!
You picked the right driver too
i put this in my car and put some arma backflip 4s tires on and it doesn't really wheely as much i need more punch
