Waterproof Hobbywing system for Kraton?

[Rlduling3]

Does Hobbywing carry a Waterproof system for the Kraton?

 

[Derrick 0511]

Quickrun 150A BL and Ezrun150A are waterproof. Stay away from the Ezrun series if your looking for waterproof

 

[Derrick 0511]

Sorry I meant to say, stay away from the xerun series if you want waterproof

EZRUN MAX 8 Combo this is gonna be my next

 

[ARRMAgeddon]

How does it compare to the stock motor?

How does it compare to the stock motor?

The EZRUN is more powerful than the stock ARRMA BLX Motor and handles but also rides smoother.

What I would really want to try in a Kraton is a EZRUN MAX 6 ESC with a 1200kv Motor (maybe a Leopard) and 8s LiPo this would be insane

 

[ARRMAgeddon]

Thats cool
Which of this two would you pick

Mamba monster x combo

Or ezrun max combo

 

[RCCR]

definetly the EZRUN MAX 8 combo

 

[ARRMAgeddon]

Why whats your reason for pickin that over the mamba

 

[RCCR]

because the Mamba is about 200€ more expensive than the EZRUN And with the EZRUN it is easier for me in germany because of the warranty when smth will happen it

Nice! congratulations buddy like I said before, I would definetly buy the MAX 8 Combo ~200€ or the MAX 6 with 1200KV and 8s ~300

 

[ARRMAgeddon]

Hahahah can i run 5s with the ezrun max8

Yeah the shipping cost me 133 bucks lol

 

[ARRMAgeddon]

Arent you worried about the drivetrain on this rigs with that power lol
I might end up yanking all the guts of this truggy

Explain the difference, and labor required.

Explain the difference, and labor required.

Max6 is 8s lipo capable, meaning it can use larger batteries then max8. I'd say it's probably overkill for most people's usage. But it's something I want to try one day...lol

As far as labor, I do not know of anyone who has tried the max6 so I don't know how much work it would take to fit it in our cars. On this page you can scroll down and see the dimensions of both max6 and max8

[RCCR]

@BigSplit exactly like you said, for the most it would be hard to drive on 8s but also to maintenance the vehicle, but one day I also will try this

 

[MSgt]

I don't think you'll gain anything on the 8s, as they say to limit the motor to under 1200kv at those voltages. Playing around on a spreadsheet I built to determine speed, puts it at 23 mph with the 12T pinion. A 22T pinion would put it about 40 mph with final drive ratio 9.77:1. How well do motors in that kv range handle getting geared up like that? I think it would make a mean truck puller, though. lol.
