I have a 6s notorious (outcast with a different bodies) and I love it. But if I had to start over between the Kraton and the outcast, if probably go with the Kraton because of the longer wheelbase. The outcast gets very squirrelly and takes lots of practice to handle it smoothly. The longer wheelbase of the Kraton is a little more tame. If you like wheelies and backflips go outcast!

I don't have a lhs closer than an hour away so I buy everything I need online. No problems getting anything yet! There are several kit dismantlers out there selling new parts dirt cheap too.

Good choice ... as soon as they are available you can check out Jenny’s rc, they are kit breakers and very popular here on the forum.

If things go like they did when the 3s trucks released then parts availability will be a nightmare. Tower saying mid May means nothing. Trust me on that one.

Like the non-existent 3s Typhon arms, adjustable motor mount, metal diffs that has been pushed back for over a year . . . & most importantly, the driveshafts. At least the cup is available now, as useless as it is.

You think they will make a center diff for this? I prefer a center diff to running a locker with a slipper.

I just picked up the Typhon 3s arms (front & rear) from nzhobbies.com if you're still looking for them. Putting them on my BRCC!
