Hey everyone what’s up?!
Been driving RC for about 30 years.
Bought my first Arrma yesterday, after always being a Traxxas enthusiast, grabbed the 8s Kraton. Anything I need to know? Anything to adjust change immediately upgrade and or watch out for? These trucks seems pretty reliable but I’m a little concerned about the chassis being metal and bending. I mostly run on the track so I won’t be doing 30ft high jumps but it is possible I nose dive in to a landing on occasion when things go wrong. Should I immediately buy a thicker upgrade chassis?
Also the hobby shop guys said change the pinion to high speed cause it’s slow out of the box and even on a track the motor runs cool with high speed gearing. Need input from more experienced people before I drive this thing.
Last thing.... what’s the cap pack thing on the ESC wire? Thanks in advance!
