you could start with turning the punch up! else I'd upgrade electronics. My kraton 4s has a max 8 g2 2250 sensored combo and it definitely has the juice. People use that combo in 6s stuff.

I thought about that but she wants to keep stock motor and gearing she still learning how to control the jumps and what not lol I run a HW MAX6 esc and max8 g2 2250kv motor in one of my other 6s 8th scale bashers and its a beast lol

I took the Spektrum system from my 6s and put it in the Kraton 4s. 15t pinion and hit 63 mph on 6s lipo. Fun upgrade!

That's not a bad idea at all then I can get a HW or Castle system and put it in my 6s typhon I didn't even think of that Good Lookin Out bro

She's not wanting faster tho she just wants to do Flips off jumps and all that goodness lol im not sure what to do to get that for her without going bigger motor esc or gearing ya know what I mean?

 

[aaronw]

Max 8 with 2250 motor will give you all the power in the world to do flips. It really is a beast

 

[Moirae]

You should be able to flip just fine now tbh. Sounds like she would have enjoyed the outcast 4s more though.

LOL Have her try it on 100%

 

[Army_Vet_Rc_Addict]

Thats what I told her about the outcast but she likes the way the kraton looks lol

LOL Have her try it on 10

I'm not a newbie bro

I was surprised when my wife said there were something wrong with the Kraton 4sv2. I looked it over everything looked fine then she handed me the remote I saw that it was on 75%.

There isn't anything wrong with it it runs and works just fine my wife just wants to do Flips and the throttle control on the remote is always the 1st thing I look at if it's not acting right throttle wise

 

[Dales396lt4]

Normally, when she says something isn’t acting right, it’s a broken axle or a broken diff. Some things that might help with flips, heavier tires or maybe a taller gear. May be a taller jump and punch on 5. If still using the DX3 may need to be recalibrated for full throttle. As far as upgrades a taller pinion gear will give her more air control. I run 15 tooth pinions in both the wife’s and grandson’s. On my baby kraton, I run a Kraton 6S set up and for lack of a better term it’s violent, so I normally run it on 4s.

Everything is stock on it the remotes been recalibrated twice throttle limit is at 100 and we've tried bigger tires but caused serious heat issues in the motor and esc and that was with 6s outcast tires but I may try the 15 tooth pinion and see how she likes that
