don't waste your time and money on 4s unless you are new to rc. In that case you can learn the rig on 4s.Hi guys new to the forum. is the outcast 6s fast enough on 4s? i want to do big jumps and backflips. also decent speed in the straights.
should i run the 16t pinion?
Thanks in adxance.
Hi I had a problem with my Nero big rock and I was using 6s so be careful if you use 6s.Hi guys new to the forum. is the outcast 6s fast enough on 4s? i want to do big jumps and backflips. also decent speed in the straights.
should i run the 16t pinion?

Go 6s, run it around in a huge open field for a few packs to experience its handling characteristics before sending it.
I just put a 16t on mine but haven't been able to run it much. Seems faster than stock for sure. Looking for bigger airs!
I am still running the stock motor, 2050kv. There are a few factors that may have led to your motor issue. Gear mesh, may have gotten too hot, premature bearing failure...I am not an expert and do not know your specific setup.What is the kv on your motor because mine was 2000kv and with the 6s it was seized after a couple of runs with the Arrma Nero Big Rock with a standard pinion?
I think it's more like a bearing failure, the problem is the motor is sealed and I can't replace the bearings because if it is the problem I would replace the bearings of my other motors. I tried to get in touch with Arrma support and Horizon Hobby and they were of no help although it is still under warranty so I am trying to find a more reliable brushless motor around 2000kv 6s and that could be maintained so I could replace the bearings every so much hours. I also will include a heat sink to keep the motor more cool especially if I can fit a cooling fan.I am still running the stock motor, 2050kv.

The bearings are replaceable. It’s not an easy job, but it can be done.

Get the 6s and run it on 4s. I guarantee you will still have fun. Watch Vas or Jay Tee on YouTube run that bitc@ on 4s and see for yourself.thanks guys for the advise. at the moment i only have 2s and 4s lipos. and considering im spending just under £600 on initial purchase for outcast and upgrade parts i have no idea when i will be able to afford 6s. so if i its not enjoyable on 4s theres really not much point to get the outcast.
should i compromise and get the 4s version?
Teh 6s is going to break more than the 4s i thinkHi guys new to the forum. is the outcast 6s fast enough on 4s? i want to do big jumps and backflips. also decent speed in the straights.

Thats a fact it will break more parts on 6s.Teh 6s is going to break more than the 4s i think
Leaving it in the garage will break even less...Teh 6s is going to break more than the 4s i think
The ESC and motor perform much better on 6s.
Not to mention if you are looking to do flips etc it really does better with 6s power. (not that it couldn't be done on 4s)
Just not really worth investing in a 4s pack to set it aside in a few months. Once you try 6s you will NEVER go back to 4s. You can keep everything safe by learning throttle control. The piece of foam or some zip ties behind the throttle trigger as recommended by @Notorious J is really great advice, since most of us have no self control and love POWER
