So after running three packs threw my kraton 8s the receiver completely failed just curious if this is common or just a bad apple?
thats exactly what I thought - where is the SR6100AT the Kraton comes with ... not saying it better as I had one DOA but still ...Did you put a traxx RX in the Kraton? Is that the one that failed?
No the spektrum one failed lol have a few spare Traxxas rx so that’s what it’s running for now until I see if I can get one under warranty, thought it was pretty funny to have a brand new arrma with Traxxas parts in itDid you put a traxx RX in the Kraton? Is that the one that failed?

But it works both ways lol my erevo 2 with an arrma motor lol works Awsome!
lol yes was the spektrum receiver that failed, I did turn up the bec voltage could that have been the cause of the failure?Not sure what this has to do with a Kraton 8S if you installed your own receiver? ?
Default answer is that it's very uncommon because nobody has a configuration like that (or highly unlikely).
You might want to check the voltage coming from the ESC, sounds like you had to RX failures already?
Otherwise it's just bad luck. Make sure the RX is secured or it will bounce and get damaged by impacts.
Factory is 6 and next setting is 8.4 I read somewhere that it would help with steeringWhat did you crank it up to?
I thought the steering was very weak is why I turned up bec but it turned out that I was turning down what I tgat was avc but was actually the steering rate this dx3 is a little confusing to me lolWhat did you crank it up to?
Ya ten four I’ll turn it back down thanks for your help!I can't find info on the trx receiver but 8.4V is extreme. It helps if you have a high voltage servo and it can actually operate at that voltage.
Stock etc works at 6V or 7.2V max.
That is failure cause imho, you are burning up your electronics. Stock receiver is rated up to 9.6V and wouldn't be an issue but none of the other electronics support it incl. the fans. Dial it down to 6 or 7.2V (whatever stock is)
I’m fairly new to the hobby and still have a lot to learn on the electronics side of things but if you don’t learn something new everyday it’s a wasted day! Not the first thing I’ve ff d up and definitely won’t be the last!I can't find info on the trx receiver but 8.4V is extreme.
