      Rich Duperbash listen man CHILLAX & ENJOY life's too short not soak it all up. I got a question and a joke. Why is it ALL & I MEAN ALL my hoons along with the back flip dboots are bent up like a snake with scoliosis? And their sitting in tubs unless their being used. All my rigs sit without tires. Why is that?

      @@djacobs9658 that's a great question Brother 🤔. I've bought wheels that were either bent/warped or otherwise unbalanced out of the bag. Most of my bent wheels took rim damage from my own doing 😂. Curb taps, sideways hits, or hitting boulders and debris at speed. I'm a stickler for keeping my wheels either mounted with the trucks on a makeshift stand, or stacked on their sides with no pressure on the foams. I also vent all my bash tires to keep sand, dirt, and water out. Unless your bins are being exposed to extreme temperature shifts or the wheels are jammed together, I can't see how they're getting jacked up. Wheels do have their limits though. Storing them usually helps preserve their useful life. 🍻😎💪👊👊

Perfect fitment and spin killer at the center diff cup 👌. Taper and thickness is spot on with minimal weight. Wishing I'd had more time to rake some jumps at the gravel spot. Tractors left some killer piles that just need a little smoothing out 👀🚀🚀. Definitely going back soon. The Talion and Typhon 3s were hauling ass and felt dialed 🥰.

    Great bash and driving as usual my friend. I'm doing well around 30ft plus jumps and I haven't bent the center driveshafts yet, but you are probably doing twice that height 🤣. I'm about to install the thicker M2C driveshafts. TBH the previous ones would snap in the rear of my EXB K8S and O8S, but in the front they are still going strong, so the thicker ones will go in the rear.

I've broken a couple from wicked nasty hits, but the rod ends don't move or strip on the threads like the RTR ones. I should note you need the EXB inner pivot mounts that affix on the tower. 😎💪👊👊

    Such an awesome bash man the kraton 8s never stops keeping me on awe. Mitch keeps coming out with such great products. Any idea if he has any plans to do 8s sway bars? I've actually bent a couple recently when I land hard enough it comes down on the drive shafts n bends them. So awesome to see the talion out again. Such a versatile truck and that 3s typhon is so epic. I'm in the middle of building one for my dad . I feel like I've asked you before but when you get your belted tires for the 8s rigs do you still venting them or does that compromise the belt material?

      Thanks so much Nick 😜. Felt awesome to get the Talion and Typhon 3s out again 😍. I'm not sure if Mitch plans to do any swaybars 🤔. Forgot to mention I actually took mine off my K8s EXB a couple runs ago. Even running thicker ones, I kept having them pop out at the balls over time and they'd snag the shafts and bend up. Not sure if it's a geometry thing or if the grubs just can't lock onto the flat spot of the swaybar well enough 🤔. My EXB has more body lean , but it seems to drift and corner fine and tackle rougher terrain well. I don't view them as a must have, but will mention it to Mitch and the test team 👍.

    Wondering if I could get your opinion on a 8s exb setup? I’m in the process of sourcing parts for my build. I thinking of a kraton 8s exb. Surpass Hobby Rocket V2 880kv. Max 5 ESC. 34/34 Gearing. Based on your experience these rigs am I getting the right stuff?

    • @richduperbash2966
      @richduperbash2966  3 роки тому

      Hey Derek 🤗. I've heard good things overall about Rocket motors. They might come from the same manufacturer as my Hobbystars based off appearance. The gearing sounds about perfect for that kv. The 880kv I saw online is a 5593. That's just big enough for good grunt, but likely won't have as much raw power as say a 5898 or 56112. It boils down to your taste and preference too. Just throwing that out there because I've always found it better to have extra power on tap if you want or need it. The EXB K8s is a big heavy rig. That motor might be plenty, but I just don't know not having tried one. 🍻😎💪👊👊

That rocket v2 was 4800 watts vs 56112 7350 watts. 9.5hp vs 6.5. I would have left a lot of power on the table. I found a Surpass 56112 780kv for $105 and pulled the trigger on that one.

    • @richduperbash2966
      @richduperbash2966  3 роки тому +1

      I run my suspension fairly soft for easier chassis slap. Think I'm using 30-35 weight rear. The M2C O ring style pistons are smoother allowing better stroke with less afterbounce due to the downwards facing slits and oil pressure applied to the O ring during rebound. Make sure your hinge pins aren't binding and I recommend using 2 M3 button head screws per arm to set your droop. Also replace any bent or sticking shock shafts. Lastly, try to land level as best you can. 😎💪👊👊

I wanted to ask what you recommended for a diff oil set up as well as well as pinion setup if you had time to help with some advice, I feel like I broke the motor shaft from adding all the weight I did with the Vitavon, f&r knuckles, aluminum center brace and added a bash bar to the stock chasis to go cheap, and with the stock spur and a 20T pinion. Any help? Please and thank you!!!!!

    • @richduperbash2966

      Sorry about your rough luck with the Spectrum electronics Brayan. Not sure why the stock 1250kv motor came with a 5mm motor shaft 😝. That's simply too small for these rigs. Added weight could've contributed to the breakage, but the shaft really needs to be 8mm like most all bigger motors. Most guys run a 27-30T pinion with the Hobbywing 1100 with good results. Just check temps and stay below 160F tops. The 5687 is the smallest motor you really want to run in the K8s. 56112 Hobbystar motors are my preferred. As far as diffs, I like 1 million front, Silicone ear plugs center, and 500k rear. 😎💪👊👊
