My kraton 6s v5 build

[Tate1122]

Hello everyone! To start off, a few months ago I got the itch to get a new rc car, so I did some research and decided to get the arrma kraton. I got a v5 roller off of ebay for a good deal, and decided to upgrade it like crazy before I drive it. So here is what I have done and what I plan to do next.

List of upgrades I have done

m2c chassis
m2c front and rear chassis brace
m2c shock standoff
m2c front and rear tower
aluminum aliexpress bulkheads front and rear
arrma aluminum diff cups in all 3 diffs
j concepts body
jx servo (in the mail)
aluminum servo mount (in the mail)
dumbo rc transmitter / receiver (in the mail)
3d rc wing mount ( in the mail)

list of upgrades yet to be done

shims for diffs
tires
max 6 combo
6s battery

Get m2c drivetrain the front cvd is going on the first hard hit to either side on the front, and get hinge pins with block a/b.
I’ve hit twice as hard kept on bashing.

Are the hinge pins with the block worth it? they seem expensive for what you get.

100% if you buy the kit it’s cheaper like 70+ tax.
I’ve had some hard hits that stock pins and arm would pop and bent but with the m2c it’s taken hard hits no damage with rpm arms I can vouch for those pins and blocks.
