So what crazy good deal did you find?

I recently joined the 6S crew. Looking over the truck it looks very well designed. I can see why people like the Kraton 6S RTR. One thing though.. Arrma QA/QC is still....... Some screws had loctite, some didn't.. Fluid Levels.... Mesh..

The EXB diffs in the Mojave EXB had tons of output cup play... Still not entirely sure whats up there, I need to tear them down.
Always a good thing to go over the rig when you get it....

So far mine have arrived in decent order.... Nothing obviously out of whack....

Diffs had minimal fluid, but that is almost to be expected
 
Picked up the Fireteam for $399 , $270 off , that's a killer deal IMO . I wrote in another thread , I was eyeballing it , but not at $669 , my LHS had them for $550 , pass , ...... for $399 , not passing !!!! LOL

Mine are still tight. I'll pass.:ROFLMAO:
 
Still feel the FT is the best Arrma deal. Platform and all. If into Arrma. Especially if you never had their 6s rigs. Easy way to slide into a 6s Arrma rig never having one.. And it is BIG.
Of course I would toss the Hand Brake after a run or 2.
Just me.:giggle:

My NB4 is begging for a FT now.

The blue is out of stock.. That blue looks good too...
That is only $150 off , the Fireteam is $270 off !!! I had the notorious 6s , fun but a wheelie machine , even on part throttle , the front is lifting and steering goes away . Stunt truck all the way , but for full out blasts across terrain , Mojave and Fireteam !!!

Yup , I'm going to lose the handbrake feature cause I will be putting in my Futaba 3PV . But for the benefit of the doubt , I'll try the stock radio once .
 
That is good point about the LWB, definitly more fun for beginners.

I felt like the FT was about $150 overpriced when it came out imo. I was not the only one and it has been on sale numerous times. Maybe time to try one now? 🤔 :LOL:
 
Yeah, I said the FT was always overpriced as well.
$400. is like Arrma 6s prices we saw back in 2018. Hobbico prices when they owned Arrma

Those were the days.....:giggle:
