Kraton I Beat on the rigs today!

[SpeedyJ]

Beat on the rigs like a redhead stepchild. I don't think I've ever gone that hard on em and they took it like a champ. The kraton motor did get a little hot though, was hot enough to hurt my finger if I kept it on it. I wasn't too impressed with the vorteks, it didn't seem to handle jumps too well, I might just like the bigger rigs to be honest.. maybe I can sell the vorteks to go towards that fireteam sale . My new chhl 6200mh battery lasted for ages, I actually quit before the battery did this time!

@SpeedyJ I got this one, 35mm. Blows like a tornado, feels solid. NB! Provided screws were too thin. I used the ones from the factory fan, as well as the factory "fan protection" grille.

My v6 motor fan died during second bash. Bad solder at factory, one of the wires was barely making contact. Wanted to resolder, but it's non-fixable. Cannot disassemble it without damaging. Stashed wires with connector, the rest went into trash.

How does it attach to the stock kraton motor?

@Mick Boomer Exactly as the stock one with 4 bolts

 

[Mick Boomer]

Oh i thought the stock fan was 35mm

 

[Barmaleus]

@Mick Boomer Stock is 35mm, yep. Maybe AliExpress link took you to a different size. There are various sizes to choose from on that page.

 

[Mick Boomer]

Ok gotcha thats what it did took me to 40mm lol

Just ordered one, how long did yours take to arrive? Mine says next month but I hope it's sooner!

@SpeedyJ For me it takes +/- 14 days to get items from AliExpress. I live in Europe, Estonia.
We have very limited choice locally, so I am fine with waiting if I order specific items that I want.

Btw, the connector on Surpass is slightly different (tiny bit thicker). Just force that thing into the stock black adapter (where the stock motor fan goes). If stuff does not work, rotate the fan connector. Expect a small tornado, compared to stock =)

How was the esc temps?

Rocket fans are awesome. You can get them on Amazon in a few days if you don't want to wait for them to ship from China. Prices aren't too far off either.
