A superb day dodging the showers and destroying my lawn 😂 rigging up the kraton with talion wheels n tyres was the best decision ever . I’ve got the arms level , 3000 in all shocks , 16t pinion . Drives perfectly this one does , I’ll be watching the breakers to grab a talion chassis etc , but not gonna rush this one . It works , it actually works . Must find my rear mudguards too

Epic grass bashing! Remember to open up your ESC and pick out all the clippings from between the fan and heatsink, brother!

I must say though that the kraton body looks comically large against those wheels. Or the wheels look comically small. . . Not sure which
Man I live that fan you have zip tied to the motor! What is that? Looks like it pushes some serious cubic feet per minute!

Lmao tearin up some grass is always so much fun. Except the clean up part 💀
luckily i have a high pressure air line set up , so ten mins of that and she looks a lot better (y)

i`ve learnt from past mistakes , so i now check the esc etc after every bash , doesn't take long and stuff lasts longer . the motor fan is from aliexpress , runs off a 3cell lipo ( did run off a bec but that gave up ) got a good fan in the esc too now . the body is a tad to big for the tyres , but i aint spending 50+ squid until this one falls apart , i may just cut it up to suit once i get the talion towers ,but that's a way off yet

How does that work? You just plug into the balance lead or something? I am still pretty new. I have seen guys with smaller batteries running peripheral gear like fans and lights but never understood the connectivity.
I just jam fan leads into the reciever somewhere and hope for the best.

hello there , the fan needs 12v , so can be fed from a balance lead or from the main connector of 3s pack , i would use a smaller lipo , still 3s mind , but i aint got one , the fan uses very little juice . you can use a bec or even come off the main 6s pack balance lead , making sure only to come off 3 cells or the motor will will go pop on 6s .
 
Got some 2mm plastic and made some rear mudguards , just need trimming to suit . Also found me outcast side guards to help keep the muck out 👍🏻

Will those mud guards fit under the talion body?

Mine seems to pick up a lot of grass and dirt.
they can be cut very easily to suit any body , i`m still on the kraton body
 
well although this one is supposed to be a long term conversion , i have now got a set of talion exb towers coming from the states , £36 plus postage for both , lovely jubbly
 
A great bash out in a big area this morning , plenty of flat out runs , jumps too , all on grass , the belted katars work great , the mudguards work superb too . My batt only lasts 10 mins these days and it’s all over to soon , looking forward to the new lipo arriving

new dxf lipo has arrived , but the wrong one was sent, 4200 instead of 5200 , so a swift whatsapp sent and the correct lipo is heading to me , in the mean time , its been charged and used in me garden , i got a lot more power now .

front is fitted , mojave front shocks on front . back end tomorrow night and then i`ll re-drill the body to suit

all done , next up , cut the body to suit and re-drill . change the front shock oil as mojave is too thin for me and tweak me rear mudguards too

How come you're swapping to the Talion chassis?
hello there , not swapping to the talion chassis until the kraton one is bent , i just enjoy chopping and changing , it could be a typhon by tomorrow (y)
 
It’s been a garden only weekend for the kralion , several runs had and all is well , just had to soften off the springs as she kept flipping on her back . Standard talion wheels tyres used
