Kraton Front tires going full pizza cutter

[rchelipiloteer]

Hello, struggling with the power delivery on my Kraton8s. setup is 1100kv castle xlx2 29t stock spur, 20million center, 3m front 1m rear. stock tires went full pizza cutter from new, checked center diff seems fine with 20m, haven't tried ear plugs in the center yet. thoughts?

There's not much you can do about that. You oil weights seem good. I don't think Ear Plugs will help any better, IMHO.
Maybe check your ESC punch/ torque control setting. Watch your throttle finger. What matters the most. The stocker tires and most non-belted tires will do that.
Make sure to check tires frequently adding CA to the tires as needed.
Are you running the Arrma "Big Block" tires?

If they aren't tearing or ungluing, the tires are designed to expand for centrifugal force. 8S Backflips or belted tires will remove some of the expansion when tires are off-ground.

earplugs in the center makes a difference.

earplugs in the center makes a difference.

That’s what worked for me

ear plugs for sure.

not tearing or coming unglued, it just seems soon as any weight gets off those fronts it is pizza pizza time, have masher X to see what happens next,

gonna play with that maybe just limit the powwer to 90% but what i'm looking for is like how my 6s typhon and kr6 just plant and go and in turn they don't go full Pizza Hut Large, Have belted to see what happens next

If only the fronts are going pizza cutter sounds like your center diff is not completely full. You really have to pack it in there.

Mine came "pre-filled" with 20M and yea.. nope... Mostly empty. Packed it in with a silicone earplug and its much better now.

6s and 8s platforms are way different animals. Tires as well. Comparing a 15 pound to 30 pound platforms.. etc. The power to weight ratios are different. The weight bias and final drive ratio also. Don't try and make your 8s drive like your 6s rigs. You will just be chasing a ghost. Will die trying.
Adapt your driving technique to the rig. They all have different personalities. You can tune them as best you can. But cant make one drive like the other. They are 2 different scale platforms.
