Hi guys. I bought for my self an Arrma Kraton in Feb 2018 after my brother was pushing me to get an RC again after many years break from this sport. We run this cars only on 4s lipo power and have had no major issue or break downs, in my opinion 6s lipo is just to much, you just start breaking things. Any way, the car i a lot of fun but were we come from there is not a lot of places or tracks to play with this kind of cars unless your into FOFF or formula offroading!! Here in Iceland we have plenty of areas to imitate that sport and most of the guys are doing that exactly. Couple of them have already change there cars for better performance with awesome builds and i wanted to do so myself. As strange as it is now none of them have posted a thread in here so i decided to put one in, although I do not have a complete build yet. I have some photos from my premounting and have everything ready just needs to be welded together. First thing that needs to be done is to have a lenght chassis, same guy we are buying the trucks from here in iceland had these chassis made from aluminium and the are 52 cm long. You also need lenght driveshaft 220mm long. Thats about it! After you have moved from the orginal chassis to the lenght one and put new driveshaft in you can start building your very one FOFF cage and make it uniqe :) If you don't want to go through all this trouble with building a cage you can also buy the Axial yeti xl cage and mount that in stead. My brother and some other guys have already gone that way and that looks awesome aswell.

When I saw this motorsport for the very first time when I was a kid, I wanted to have one RC.

Up till now only Kyosho had an offering both gas or electric powered.

Still I like to see a solid axle version, like the originals!

Love you build so far. Are you going to upgrade the powerplant, and how much cells you are going to run this on? All diffs locked?

Thank you.

Everything is orginal about the powerplant and we only run it on 4s. I just put in 1M silicon on diff and thats it. Works perfect.
