NEW VIDEOS EVERY WEEK!!!!! In todays video I install all the electronics in the Kraton EXB which includes a 1717 castle motor and max 6 ESC. Hope you enjoy :)
ARRMA designed the battery box on the Kraton to have the wires in the rear, that's why they put a little holder at the rear to hold the balance plugs. (down by the rear center chassis brace with the elastic Bungie hold down strap). That holder really helps to keep the balance wires from getting hung up on something and getting damaged. My main reason for running the Castle esc instead of the Max6 is I wanted the auxillary wire function to use for the torque control function. That basically allows me to change the punch settings on the fly. Being able to use the sensor is nice, but I find the sensor wires almost always come loose on hard landings anyways, so running sensorless isn't that big of a deal. With the 15 tooth on 8s you should be running in the 60's. Mine should go l 66mph with the 15 tooth on stock tires, if I find a long enough area to top it out. I hit my mailbox post at 60mph and we as still accelerating at the time 😂. The stick tires get sketchy at high speeds, my truck gains about 2"of ground clearance with them, and with them ballooning so bad you can barely keep it going in a semi straight line. Proline belted MX38's solved that problem. Have fun with the new truck.👍
Great Content Salute my opinion that servo ECO str8 trash with that truck u might get 5-8 runs b4 it goes it's weak try out powerhobby servos there way better an inexpensive ACGS Kamp peace & Bleesing
Can’t wait to get my 1/5 exb when they back in stock

Is hobby wing motors are more reliable from my experience
Hi, it's come with the motor screws?
No it does not, I had to supply my own
Absolutely ridiculous to run on 8s. This thing is out of control on 6s 🙄
