The rear went first , so Ty-rapped in place to carry on , then the front went a few crashes later
The now gutted talion has supplied the stand offs , steering saver with fat washer and drilled red washers to stop the drive shafts popping . So off we go again I’ll look in the diffs next week

Thats simply bad design. On the 3S cars the shock tower properly covers the shocks, so they cant break like this. All Corally cars have this kind of shock tower too and literally first thing that all youtubers break

I've read here that those exb standoffs are garbage, maybe you could just replace them w/ the black rtr or even m2c

I’ve got some scorched ones on the way , I still got several others to bust while I wait

You sir are Bashing Correctly!
Have a bunch of replacement screws on hand for simple repairs like these..

Keep up the good work!
Blast on!!!

And to finish off the day , I’ve added my favourite blend of earplug to the centre diff , I’ll leave it to settle over night then it’s just front / rear diff to look in . Luckily arrma hadn’t put much oil in it , so I could just jam that plug in . Lovely jubbly

I can see we have a different bashing style...but like to know what you thought about the 4S and 6S test, big air is not for me

I had the same issue on the EXB after a few first bashes but due to some bad crashes. The M2C standoffs have been great so far!

hello , i`ve been a firm 4s fan after getting some 120c race packs , yes 6s is fast , but it also spoils the enjoyment , i only run on the back lawn , and for me 4s and a larger pinion is 100% more enjoyable than 6s in my chosen area , maybe if i was out in the open 6s would work , oh and i break less of 4s , still fast , flies great too. i have had the 2 exbs previous , and cant remember busting 3 stand offs , so got lots of spares till scorched arrive

Love the feedback.

I am going in that direction with the Kraton EXB and love it on my Typhon TLR 4S with a large pinion, as you said just as fast as my buddy v5 Typhon on 6S. Looking to test on my Kraton.

Thx

I got a V5 typhon , that’s running team corally ESC n Motor , i think it’s got a 20 or 23t pinion and I only us it with my 120c race packs , it’s a rocket . Great little buggy that’s built like a tank

I generally run 500 to 1mil in my center diffs but haven’t tried ear plugs. Do they allow a little slip for front and rear landings? It does look like that would be a lot less messy.
What kind of plug is that? Silicone?
