Incredible value from Arrma, can't believe it's got the EXB chassis. I like the colors, personally. I don't need literally everything to be red and black. My daughter will really enjoy it.
Not gonna lie, that does look awesome. And personally I don’t mind these colors. Everything can’t be black, blue, or red. I’m guessing this new Kraton approaches $600? I already have the 6s Arrma notorious and that thing is a beast! I added a heat sink and cooling fan to the motor and it’s just awesome to drive. I like this new kraton, but right now one 6s arrma is all my bankbook can handle. 😂 Great video, Greg. 👊🏼
That loop (I think....?) out of the vertical bowl at 15:41 was one of the most brilliant things I've ever seen with an RC car! Absolutely on point driving & what an intense machine. Great entertainment, cheers!
Simply awesome unboxing, track rip, and skatepark bash Brother 😱!!! Stoked to see ARRMA making some EXB options standard with the V6. Emulsion shocks included and legit skid plate. Not sure about the clipless body popping loose, but you put an excellent vid together with the bonus speed run test 👊. 4s looked perfect at the skatepark. Great stuff my friend!!!
@@richduperbash2966 Thanks Brother! Still hunting for big air spots like you have. So jealous of your amazing action footage! But yeah, Arrma made some good moves with the EXB parts.
It's been a few years but all my trucks are Arrma. Best value, best fun. Thanks for a great review! New body mount system I'd like to learn more....hope it works out.
Awesome review Greg! Great looking truck for sure! Been a while since i heard the name Hobbico....I bet several have never heard of them. 😅Nearly 7 yrs since they went off the map.
Yea but at least traxxas takes good care of you with second to none parts support and the most inexpensive replacement parts in the hobby. Once things start breaking on this kraton, be prepared to dig much deeper into those pockets for parts. I’m a fanboy of all the big brands. Traxxas, Arrma, Losi, Associated. But I find myself driving my Arrma cars the least because it’s so expensive to repair them if something goes sideways.
You pay for the arrma performance sooner or later but that’s the cost of racing . Greg been Rc ing every Rc there is for decades , I’ll bet you he tell you not many if any Rcs that Rip like a kraton . To me it’s the closest thing to ripping a dirtbike l/atv yourself
But I know what you mean my last kraton still on the shelf new and I rip different configurations of the Typhon mostly. I did run through a maxx n your right the parts are cheap diffs still good but it will never rip like arrma
@OGRCFanatic I have first hand experience with Horizons part support and they are awesome as well. They take care of you no questions asked. They also have 2 year warranty while traxxas only gives you a 3 month warranty which is a joke! So how exactly is traxxss part support better?? Can you explain what makes them better than arrma? Also as someone who owns many rcs from all the brands you're going to pay alot for parts on any 1/8 scale rc or larger. That's just how it is. You don't think that the bigger trsaxxas vehicles parts aren't expensive as well? Because they are. Also if the expense of parts is something you worry about than nothing beats their 3s line for cheap parts. This hobby in general is not cheap, period. I don't think your comment is that fair and is a bit biased. I see comments like this alot and it seems to come from diehard traxxas fans that pose as arrma owners and are deceptive about their "experience" with "their arrma" trucks.
@@cwatson42785 guys like you me could call horizon and they take care of us , problem is people take advantage of warranty most of time it’s driver error. They look at your accounts and can tell by your ordering if it’s faulty product or likely your a knucklehead. They still will take care of user errors but did you ever read how petty people are . They’ll buy car are clearance and complain the plastic mirrors broke off 😆
Should I get the sledge or the kraton? I am going back and forth, the prices are the same right now! Never owned an Aarma. and is the EXB that much better?
I purchased a 6S Mojave (still waiting for it). But now considering returning it and getting this new Kraton ! If I had more room I'd have both ! The Kraton is more versatile !
The color you got is okay but way better than the other one, but nothing a can of your favorite paint can’t cure! Awesome truck for what you pay for it! I’m soooo happy they got rid of the red anodized paint on the hubs and shocks! I’m tired of using oven cleaner to strip all the red off! Glad they listened! Arrma does such a great job with upgrading their trucks instead of just painting it different colors and calling it EXTREME and adding $100 to the price like its competitors do!
Honestly, I think the bigger pinion gear that it now comes with is what is giving it the additional speed. Not the firmware update. The Kraton exb for example, comes with a 13 tooth pinion that is good for about 60 mph. This one comes with a 16 tooth. This is where that extra speed is coming from. Nonetheless, clever marketing by Arrma regarding alleged firmware update.
I’m a fan of the colors. I grew up in the 80’s with the neon colors. I’m buying the one you got but you’re right, they should offer one that’s not as flashy for those of us that want something else
I have had the first 6s kraton for 6 or so years. I have rebuilt it several times, due to have too much at a skate park. Some good upgrades for a new kraton.
It’s in stock right now so should not be that long.. but just give them a call the number is on arrmas website.. they have good customer service it’s also available at many other hobby websites
I've wanted a basher/stunt truck for a while but not really enough to pay what they cost. But this one coming in at $600, the value is there honestly. It has a ton of EXB parts and I can't see a single thing I'd want to upgrade or change. which actually contributes a lot to that value.
NICE! 4S for me appears to be the sweet spot. Looks like the Kraton was running on auto pilot / cruise control. Very controllable on all the surfaces. Thanks for sharing really good video and product review. By the way the multi colors are the way to go they stand out just like the Kraton RC performance. 🏁🏁🏎️🏁🏁
Can’t wait to see someone throw in a max6 1650kv combo 😊. It’s insane fast . I did it and wanted the stock one as well afterwards so the build is almost complete on my second k6s . Hopefully I can get this body on there
I was wondering if you can put the body posts back on so we can use body clips ? I have different bodies that that use body clips and prefer that instead of new push button design..I never had a problem with body clips with tethers.
So I got a new v5 kraton a couple months ago,and it came with the same servo,esc and reciever,just minus the fan on the motor,which i put a twin fan on.i absolutely love it!
@NicholasLoan i just put a hot racing adjustable servo saver on mine.also upgraded to aluminum front and rear hubs,and aluminum diff cups.thing is rock solid!
Hey if you enjoy great! Personally, I've tried the hot racing, kimbrough, and Treal servo saver on my 6s typhon and 4s kraton, and found the Treal worked best, but still not anywhere near perfect. Thankfully Arrma listens to the people
@@darrinwoodward14 I second this comment. We can’t forget that true hobbyist will eventually upgrade parts and make it their own. Out of the box “perfection” is fun and all, but is catered towards the person wanting to dip their toes or who maybe doesn’t have time to upgrade. In the end anything that gets people into the hobby is good, but if I had an EXB I wouldn’t upgrade. I actually have the EXB in my cart as we speak on the horizon website.
They are neck and neck, now. The EXB has fancy diff covers, nicer metal shock towers (I think). This new one has the updated steering knuckle and body support. I don't think you can go wrong with either. I'm still happy with my EXB, though I feel the jealousy for the new upgrades.
Oh definitely get the newest one. It seems Arrma took some of the better parts off Exb, but this one has thicker straps, much stronger chassis, and ect. I have the exb and it's weird. It really depends how hard you want to bash. If you run lightly anyone of them will work..if you're going to M2c, this model would be better because of the upgrades.
Wow nice video ! Will you test the notorious V6 too ? I'm hesitating between this Kraton and the norotious. I want to backflip all day but i want to do straight line speeding too with my son ! So i need some advices to chose the good one ! I wish you the best !
i was thinking they were going to a 1/7 chassis and a diff redesign but the things they did on this v6 is still pretty nice , When can I get my hands on those parts upgrades,
Nice looking truck and I actually like the blue and pink body. If I would get one I would get that and eventually paint one myself. Won't be getting it though because my experience with an arrma is not great. I got three RC cars for some light bashing, one being the outcast. And out of the three the outcast is the only one that broke something almost every time I took it out. Last thing was a massive bend in that cheap aluminum chassis.
Not my favorite colors, but atleast it's something different. And that makes arrma what 1 body out of the last hundred that you might not like. And there's always clear bodies. That skate park looked amazing! Thanks Greg
I’d love to see a follow up tuning video. Put some thicker oil in those shocks and check the diffs…. I’ve almost never seen a properly filed factory diff but then again this isn’t a production model
Sorry if i didnt get it...was the 80mph just a jab at other manufacturers claimed speeds? This one comes with the "speed gearing" from the factory, i own a big rock 6S and i have never went full speed even with the 14T gearing, it went 67mph which is super impressive, no changes needed...so, is there a mention on what to do to actually reach 80mph? thats crazy fast territory, at least for an off road truck.
Bought all the new Arrma’s that just came out except this one (I have shorts up). Really like this one but running out of space so Ill be giving a few away this week
Howd u get a kraton so early? They haven’t even been released… and when they do release on the 18th do you think they will run out and be on back order?
Noticed you swapped to 4s for the park. Could you have just ran the 6s with throttle trimmed down does that just make it boring? Want to buy a 6s kraton but im definitely not very experienced coming from 2s wltoys 124017's and im not sure if i should go 6s right away or go 4s. Thinking if I do go 6s I could turn down throttle trim until im a little more used to it. That way wouldn't need 2 sets of batteries....would this be a good plan?
I just checked today to see if I could update my firma 150 (SPMXSE2150) to this new firmware but it doesnt seem to be available? Any idea when or if this has been released yet??
Should have went with Paint jobs similar to the brushless Mojave groms. These are ok just really liked the grom schemes. To me the 1/8 is the best Kraton version. I think its the right size for bashing and not break as easily as the 5th.
Oh man I hope this is the new truggy king. Arrma does basher suspension so well, it’s so plush, so now that some of the issues are fixed I hope it’s a good truck! Please tell me the diffs are better!
You not going to see that in a few rips ., I suspect they are because left out the plates . Duperbash is really good with arrma diffs he says these are strongest .
I might have to check out that skatepark on my trips to CT. I’ve been meaning to go to the Wolcott one but this looks way better. The new Arrma looks awesome but I think the Notorious looks better. I wouldn’t mind one as I haven’t had an Arrma since the release of the OG 6s Outcast.
I’ve had many wars in my head over what cars I was buying this year and Traxxas won. Mostly because I wanted an X-Maxx again as I had to sell mine a few years back to pay rent and utilities after getting divorced. Next years around the corner sooo maybe a 4s outcast and a 6s notorious will find a new home here 😂

I think they did an amazing job with this V6 Kraton, but I do wish they had one or two more color options.
Man they really knocked it out of the park. Push button body release and that pink & blue body looks awesome.
That skate park is epic too 😎
Good stuff all around! 😎
That thing as been seriously upgraded. Congrats to Arrma!
Yup! Lots of goodies on this one and a killer truck to drive!
so everyone has forgotten about the Kraton exb v2 that came out not to long ago?
I do miss mine ever since I put tracks on it 2yrs ago . That loop was outstanding!!
I own an Army of Arrma's, looking like that army needs to get bigger🤩
More is better! 😆

I wouldn't mind a sledge🤷

Awesome review and bash mate ... looks like i need me one of these !
All the new v6 vids I've seen today made me take my v3 out for a bash after work this afternoon. Still love it.
Great review. Very useful imformation. Superb spots for the footage.

it is nice the arrma finally put a motor fan on the regular blx kraton, it was one of my main problems with the v5. looks pretty good overall
It’s good they are putting fans on motor
Agreed!
I like the color scheme! Gives late 80's/early 90's vibes!
For real I think rc cars need more color to add uniqueness we don’t need to black out everything
Can't wait till my Kraton 6s v6 comes in! Love your video's
Loving those Miami colors! I’m not on the 6S level yet, but when I get there, this will be the one.
Love the new look man. Glad I waited and did not buy any of the other new models out
I have had the first 6s kraton for 6 or so years. I have rebuilt it several times, due to have too much at a skate park. Some good upgrades for a new kraton.

I spend a looooot of time on the road to get to those spots. Great to hear people enjoy it.
Did you bent the chassis on the skatepark??
Awesome video! Pre-ordered mine, and can't wait for it!
Thanks! Enjoy
@rcdriver I think you may have put out the first video on this, btw. Nice work. You've got the hook ups with Arrma!

I was wondering if you can put the body posts back on so we can use body clips ? I have different bodies that that use body clips and prefer that instead of new push button design..I never had a problem with body clips with tethers.
Myself I don't like all black parts and hopefully they fixed that streering
Same here. That black just looks dull. These PoP!
Do you have a link that shows how to get it to 80 mph? I was not able to find on the website. Thanks. Great video.
So I got a new v5 kraton a couple months ago,and it came with the same servo,esc and reciever,just minus the fan on the motor,which i put a twin fan on.i absolutely love it!
Exactly. Clipless is not enough to upgrade. I have two Arrma Grom’s with clipless and it’s trash. Any dirt jams them
The servo saver is a major upgrade
@NicholasLoan i just put a hot racing adjustable servo saver on mine.also upgraded to aluminum front and rear hubs,and aluminum diff cups.thing is rock solid!

Thought the same. The 6s line needs a beefed up fully splined drive system. Not buying 6s until then.
2 mojave 6s custom
1 Kraton v5 custom
Awesome camera work!
Thanks! Driving and videoing at the same time at the skate park was a bit tricky with this one. 😆

It runs so smooth🔥
The dome of doom seems dangerous with a metallic fast rc tho
I stood back far for that. Especially after the earlier incident in the video.
Love the color
Not my favorite colors, but atleast it's something different. And that makes arrma what 1 body out of the last hundred that you might not like. And there's always clear bodies. That skate park looked amazing! Thanks Greg
I love the new colorway but I don't love waiting for Amain backorders 😂
Feels like an eternity!
Always wanted a 6s kraton! But I would do a clear body painted custom
I hear ya
67mph = REAL SPEED
I thought it was going to be the advertised 65mph. +2 was a nice bonus! 😎
This is by far my Favorite RC!!
Nice job on the dome of doom 🙌🏻
That was a sick jump at the skate park nice vid
Yeah, that could have gone either way. Little punch of throttle right at the end rotated it enough.
Duran Duran album cover. Love the new style
I’d love to see a follow up tuning video. Put some thicker oil in those shocks and check the diffs…. I’ve almost never seen a properly filed factory diff but then again this isn’t a production model
Sorry if i didnt get it...was the 80mph just a jab at other manufacturers claimed speeds? This one comes with the "speed gearing" from the factory, i own a big rock 6S and i have never went full speed even with the 14T gearing, it went 67mph which is super impressive, no changes needed...so, is there a mention on what to do to actually reach 80mph? thats crazy fast territory, at least for an off road truck.
Bought all the new Arrma’s that just came out except this one (I have shorts up). Really like this one but running out of space so Ill be giving a few away this week
The exb have red shocks. Only the foreteam and TlR typhon had black bodies. No more popping nice red under the body. It was arrma signature
We need this done on the Mohave 6S Greg!!
I’m with you on that!
Howd u get a kraton so early? They haven’t even been released… and when they do release on the 18th do you think they will run out and be on back order?
This happens all the time just made my kraton 4s just about bullet proof then this comes out. I want one !
Do they come actually ready to run or do you need to grease/oil the diffs?
now that you've had the v6 and the kagama, which one would you say is the better one?
Noticed you swapped to 4s for the park. Could you have just ran the 6s with throttle trimmed down does that just make it boring?
Want to buy a 6s kraton but im definitely not very experienced coming from 2s wltoys 124017's and im not sure if i should go 6s right away or go 4s. Thinking if I do go 6s I could turn down throttle trim until im a little more used to it. That way wouldn't need 2 sets of batteries....would this be a good plan?
The radio had 75 % switch and 50
4s better sometimes because lighter not over taxing everything
I could destroy that car fast 💨 6s at skate po
lookin good and durable
That thing is awesome!
12:58, SO FCUKING "YEAH SPIN IT" COOL 😭!!!
And the center Diff is the EXB
Posi traction limited Slip Jawn
I just checked today to see if I could update my firma 150 (SPMXSE2150) to this new firmware but it doesnt seem to be available? Any idea when or if this has been released yet??
Should have went with Paint jobs similar to the brushless Mojave groms. These are ok just really liked the grom schemes. To me the 1/8 is the best Kraton version. I think its the right size for bashing and not break as easily as the 5th.
Cross up, Whip it, Love your old school reviews Brother
Where is the bmx track and the skate park?
I like the Miami vice color scheme tbh
Oh man I hope this is the new truggy king. Arrma does basher suspension so well, it’s so plush, so now that some of the issues are fixed I hope it’s a good truck! Please tell me the diffs are better!
You not going to see that in a few rips ., I suspect they are because left out the plates . Duperbash is really good with arrma diffs he says these are strongest .
Thank you!
Didnt they do a Kraton EXB V2 with a 7075 chassis not to long ago? is this better than that or the same?
I might have to check out that skatepark on my trips to CT. I’ve been meaning to go to the Wolcott one but this looks way better. The new Arrma looks awesome but I think the Notorious looks better. I wouldn’t mind one as I haven’t had an Arrma since the release of the OG 6s Outcast.
It’s a little hike for me to get to that park, but it’s fun! Sounds like you’re long overdue for an Arrma.
I’ve had many wars in my head over what cars I was buying this year and Traxxas won. Mostly because I wanted an X-Maxx again as I had to sell mine a few years back to pay rent and utilities after getting divorced. Next years around the corner sooo maybe a 4s outcast and a 6s notorious will find a new home here 😂
This is one of the best RC 😊love it 😊
Yeah, they did great on the updates!
