I beg to differ and feel the Kraton is the jack of all trades. Has taller towers and shocks, Better for jumps and bumps.
I question what you say that the Talion EXB RTR is cheaper????????
Originally EXB rigs came as rollers and you needed to supply Electrics. Talion EXB as a RTR is the exception.
Kraton RTR-$549. (has no EXB option parts) Has electrics
Talion RTR EXB-$699. Has electrics and EXB parts.
Kraton RTR does not have any EXB parts or the stronger LSD diffs as a RTR.
Kraton with EXB parts is only as a Roller. No electrics. Just you are getting EXB parts and saving $$ up front. To me that is worth more than basic RTR radio and electrics.
I believe you said you want something complete out the box. A RTR platform.
The Kraton EXB is probably the best bang for the buck, however you need to buy all the electrics and install them.
All rollers IMHO are the best bang for the buck. But probably mostly for a seasoned RC 'er.
There are much better Performing Electrics available out there, compared to the Firma Electrics included in RTR rigs.
Just playing devils advocate here.
Of all the 6s rigs I own, I do not have the Talion. I feel it just overlaps what I have already. Just my thoughts.
Talion is not as popular. Not that it is a bad model. Just that once you own all the other 6s rigs, The Talion may not be any great deal.
This is subjective however. There are some that only have a Talion. and swear by it. But I just feel it is too limited with what you can do with it. And how you want to drive it.
