    Such an underrated rc because its plastic from comments on my channel people dont think its durable and would rather have the 6s with a metal chassis This car is quick!! Glad to see it is fixed like I said that lvc was too sensitive on those its pretty much anything with the v2 stealth esc. Where are all the Zee haters now lol?? Good run my friend.

      I for one love the plastic chassis cars there cheap enough to really give a kicking to and fast enough.
      Infact I find this faster than most of my 6s trucks .
      As you say no such Zees problems now and it seems that with a bit of knowledge and experience your esc issues can be a thing of the past .
      Really want a Mojave 4s now 😂
      Stay awesome buddy and thanks for the kind words

      Zee packs are well worth the money, surprised myself when I put one to the test, only downside was it was a little bit bigger than my high dollar basher battery of same mah

      ​@@ChriswithaCrcwhen I switched to bigger power system in my kraton I found it slower in a sort, the wheels needed to be bigger. Once I got bigger wheels it went a lot faster.

      @ChriswithaCrc exactly thats what surprised me too over 50 mph same as the 6s Kraton I think the plastic is more durable as well its a really good rc my only complaint is the center diff case filling up with sand I have a chassis cover coming and I am going to plug the hole in the bottom keep it from sucking it in.

      ​@ChriswithaCrc I wasn't having an lvc issue that I'm aware of but I noticed after I updated the firmware and changed my punch level to 8 the car is a monster. My buddy who has an outcast 4s drove mine and was shocked how much faster and better it drove than his outcast. I do love my cnhl batteries. I recommend taking a look at the racing cnhl black batteries. Basically same price as zee but a much better battery. My buddy runs zee i run cnhl and it's a night and day difference between the batteries.

    I have had this car for 2 months not one problem, I bash it hard. Put 20 million in center diff use hard case 5000mah 100c specktrum best car for money in my fleet had to put a hot racing steering saver and a better steering servo to get it to my liking but would definitely buy again!!

      There an awesome truck aren’t they buddy this and the outcast is way my favourite trucks , I’m leaning towards getting the Mojave 4s as well now .
      I’m using 500k centre , 10k front and rear and they work brilliant for me .
      As for the servo I’m using a DS3235 pro servo and Kimbourgh servo saver and no complaints at all .
      It was just that the ESC needed an update and also LVC needed changing .

    Hey Chris that's great to know that it's solved the issue. I have done the update on my Mojave esc but haven't been out to test it yet. One thing I wanted to mention to you is that I hooked up the program box to the Outcast I have which is the v2 rather than the v2.5 like the Mojave and you don't get the option to alter the LVC. Also you can't change the bec. I was wondering if you had tried programming your Outcast ESC as I know it's the same version as mine. It does show as a different hardware version to the v2.5. To be fair though I didn't have the same cutoff problem with the Outcast. Thanks for verifying this mate 😁👍👍

    • @ChriswithaCrc
      @ChriswithaCrc  10 місяців тому +1

      Hey there Pete ! , Hope that your well buddy ,
      Ok so great news you have managed to update your mojave ESC , Did you change the LVC on that ? it needs to come down to 3.2 ( or what you feel comfortable with but the default is way to high ! ) i know that the Mojave is running the same ESC as the Outcast V2.5 and Kraton V2.5 .
      As for the Outcast v2 unfortunately i think your out of luck there buddy its locked on the v1 and v2 vehicles BEC and LVC are part of the new stealth ESC's on the V2.5 trucks .
      You will be able to update to pick up running improvements though with the spektrum program card and v2 ESC's , Think of it like a Algorithm the ESC is taking the supplied voltage and allowing power requested to in turn the motor !
      But yes updates will help the trucks either way , just like a computer , phone ETC this is a good practice .
      As you said mind i never had a issue with my outcast v2 at all .
      Hope that this helps buddy ,
      Stay awesome

    What is the stock setting for low voltage cutoff

    • @ChriswithaCrc
      @ChriswithaCrc  4 місяці тому

      Arrma out of the box set the LVC to 3.6 which in my opinion is way to high , when though I will say this protects your batteries .
      3.2 volts is typically fine .

      Is it suppose to alarm you with beeps when it does go into LVC ? I had mine out for its maiden voyage yesterday and got 21 minutes out of a new 6200 mah. I could tell when it went into LVC at the end but it began beeping . Beeping normal or not ?
      Thanks and enjoyed the video as always.
