Kraton Happy Father's Day!

[~Kaos911~]

So this was delivered today!

Took it out and not happy with the "go around the world" turning, but have found some info on the forum I'm going to try. The Kraton is a blast other than that, so much different than my other two.

I haven't much time the last several days to get out the Kraton or the other two, but my focus is on the Kraton at the moment.
Today, I took it out after changing the punch setting to 6. Well I should have checked my screws, motor was loose at plate, pinion came off, and the vibrations that came with knocked my fan screws loose. Replaced the stock 12t with a 15t I had in the parts bin. Cleaned all the screws, added loctite, and got them all back in. The saga continues.

Popping my diff cherry today! Took front cover off and saw this oddly shaped shim. I did the rear with no issues, but I have not seen this on any pics or videos I have seen.

Yeah, that's weird. Looks like it came like that or maybe something got in there and snagged it.....who knows. Quick fix so that's good. Feels good after your 1st time, huh? I had to have a cigg after my 1st time changing diffs! It felt so good and satisfying! Wait, we are talking about rc car, right?

Very nice rig. Not sure if the Kraton came with extra shims in the box but hopefully it did like my Talion. Just replace that and bash away.
