What 6s model should I get???

[RCKYE99]

Hey yall i had a quick question I was debating on weather what 6s arma to get next i was thinking either the typhon the tailion or kraton or outcast ALL i care about is durability (thats why i want a arrma) litteraly and bone stock i don't want to upgrade i just want the strongest arma 6s out of the box so if you think another 6s arma would be better tell me i just want the strongest out of the box 6S 6S!!! rig thanks

I don't run a 6s Arrma, but based on videos/reviews I'd say Mojave or Outcast.

 

[Rcproponent]

All of em ? lol. No but really... the Mojave seems to take the cake for out of the box bash proof.

 

[Outcastblxnut]

Talion gets my vote

I love my Mojave, but it depends a great deal on your driving style, I wouldn't use a Mojave for big air, but it is awesome for just day to day bashing.

Talion or Mojave (from what I know).
Talion, the only recommended upgrade is metal chassis braces.

 

[jondilly1974]

I would have to say Typhon only due to the light weight and short arms. I would have said Senton 6S but it’s gone. If this Mojave EXB ever comes out, that might take the cake.

 

[RCKYE99]

So definetly mojave or talion so stay away fronm kraton 6s and outcast 6s? The only issue i have with the mojave is how low to the ground it is does it chassis slap every jump? And would you say the talion is just as strong if i put alumnim chassis braces on it because i forgot to mention that i was planning on putting alloy chassis braces on all of em so talion with metal brace or still mojave

I’d say Typhon: short arms, short chassis, small tires, superfast, rock solid.
Drove it to hell and back but I just wouldn’t break ?

And you can get away with running 4S and it’s still plenty fast. On 6S it’s a raped ape.

On 4s it’s plenty fast, untill you go 6s you’ll find 4s slow ?

I can’t keep tires glued on 6S. I am running a 20T pinion though. Gonna give some MX28s a run tomorrow though. See how they hold up.

 

[Jerry-rigged]

Toughest - Typhon. But it is only a 'good' basher stock. It needs MX28 and wide-mod to be a great basher.

Kraton is still the king. the best do-it-all basher, very tough. Yes, jump it wrong, and it will break, but newb with a heavy throttle finger will break anything.

I love my Mojaves , but they have their place on how / where you drive it . Went to the BMX track Sunday with one of my Mojaves , Talion , and Notorious , all on 4s , the Noto and Talion blows away the Mojave at that type of location , it just sucked to try and use the Mojave to do what I was doing with the Noto , Talion .
Then after that went to my fav bash spot , closed down golf course , put the Talion and Noto on 6s , flyin high jumps with perfect control .Back flipping with both , etc . Those 2 are my fav 6s rigs ( don't have a K6S ) . However did not come home with nothing broken , LOL , snapped the upper screw in the aluminum front chassis brace on Talion ( that happened at the bmx track landing flat / pancaking into the hard packed dirt , then doing high back flips with the Noto , broke a front driveshaft , it broke at the cvd joint in front wheel .
So , for 6s , newbie , Talion does alot for you IMO .

Alright thanks everyone last question which out of the 3 tailon typhon and Mojave goes the fastest on grass? (6S) oh and Mojave is the most durable stock correct? Or would you say it’s a tie bewteen talion and Mojave since I’ve sort of ruled out the typhon unless it is the most durable because I prefer to go faster on grass my list goes durability first speed second

 

[3x9rtse]

Stock , the Mojave is the fastest ( comes w 16t pinion )

Ok thanks I know you have experience with that truck and so have you had any problems with the chassis because chassis are quite expensive sorry if I’m sounding like a newbie or something I just really don’t like breaking stuff and having to replace it and the wheels are quite small is that a problem those are probably my last questions

 

[jkflow]

Stock, I'd say they are just about equal on grass. Mojave has higher pinion but smaller tires, it's all a mix.
If you plan on jumping, Mojave is not the best from what I can tell. Straight jumps no issue but back-flips etc are difficult, just not made for it.
If you do scale driving most of the time, that is your pick though.

I have yet to break my Talion chassis and had some nasty landings. Nothing will hold forever though. Stock chassis is fairly inexpensive (~$50?)
If you do not like fixing your cars, this is not the hobby for you imho.

I feel a v5 are coming because of the eldtronics and remote

Here is a vid of my Mojave playing in the dirt. Might help with your decision.
