Arrma RC's
  1. Kraton 4s
  2. Typhon 3s
Just got AR310888. Not long enough. Is there another piece needed? I feel so dumb but can't find info anywhere.

That’s the right part for the K4S/OC4S rear. Can you show pics of the old vs new collapsed?

Damn. Was hoping to find a more durable driveshaft but got confused and ended up wasting money I guess. Can you explain why on Towerhobbies, it says this driveshaft is for the Kraton 4s? That part confuses the hell out of me.

It is the REAR driveshaft, not the CENTER driveshaft for the K4S

I see. Need a front AND rear of that type. And the connect the two?

No, you need to purchase the center driveshaft, you bought rear wheel driveshafts.. there are 2 driveshafts in the back to turn the rear wheels, 2 shafts in the front to turn the front wheels, 1 shaft in the center to transfer power from the module to the front... (center driveshaft)

Not afraid to admit, I am a dumbass. Thought I was getting a stronger driveshaft to run front to back, but got driveshafts for the wheels. Oh well. I have extras. :(

Exactly, it's not a loss by any means, never know when you're gonna need some...?

?? not an idiot, crap happens, and those spares will be handy if and when the driveshafts pop at the u-joint..?.. what happened to the factory center shaft? A rock grind through it?

My previous melted. Been using the one off my Typhon. Got a spare center today also. My Kraton is cursed. So many breakages. But has forced me to learn at least.

Gotcha, if it melted at the module end the slipper clutch is slipping to much.. keep an eye on that..?

Yep. Had to get a new one. Many replacements so far. Gonna invest in some Hot Racing parts. I hate plastic gears.
