Outcast Outcast 6s EXB Build log

[djay.racer]

So truthfully, I haven’t changed much about the truck at all until recently. I replaced some shock standoffs due to some failed landings. Other than that the truck has been solid.

The truck currently is ran 6s only whether that be 1 6s 100c or 2 3s 100c. 4s just doesn’t feel right when doing flips and wheelies.

The very first upgrades I did were beefing up the body with some drywall tape and shoe goo and adding some proline body skid protectors just to keep the truck looking good as far as the body is concerned.

Today I upgraded the rear arms to RPM arms due to a lot of bend in my arms causing the axles to pop out when it “tumble wumbles” haha! In a few hours I’ll be adding the front arms and posting that here as well.

Next week I’m going to be doing shock and diff maintenance as they’re due.

FWIW, the stock EXB arms are better than RPM. Make sure your droop is set correctly. And your body should be bullet proof now. I haven't done anything to mine and it has taken a beating. No cracks or anything but some road rash. IMO, Arrma bodies are awesome and I've been impressed with how well the OC body has held up.

Finished adding the front arms. Thing looks so mean haha!

I was told that. But only having the truck for a couple months and having bent arms makes me wanna at least try rpms hahaha. They already seem to have taken away a little of the rear sag and made it almost level.

Build log update:

So things have turned a lot with this truck. Since the last update many many things have changed. We’ve gone to a talion chassis and soon a m2c talion xl chassis kit when this chassis retires. We’ve added talion wheels and tires or the DBoots Katars for those who don’t know. Still using the same RPM arms I was warned would be worse than stock. We also added Scorched Rc titanium stand offs as well as Scorched Rc titanium shock towers. M2c pillow ball retainers. M2c Ackerman plate. Fast Eddys bearing kit. 20t Robinson racing pinion. Wings long gone yet again. Nobody makes a solid wing mount so annoying. Someone’s gotta have a better one. Rpm, 3Drc and stock have all failed me. Planning on switching out electronics for max6 kit soon as well. I’m planning on keeping the outcast style body and modifying it as needed to keep it fitting.
