K6 here too. The 8s open up a whole entire line of more expensive parts and finding somewhere big enough to really make the 8s worth while would be hard for me. My yard is big enough for the 6s but not really for anything bigger. Not sure but an 8s might tear up a real car!! LOLJust looking for opinions. Would you rather have a Kraton 6s with Max 6 Combo or Outcast 8s RTR? Why?
Neither. If you want to drive an electric Truggy, build the best available.Just looking for opinions. Would you rather have a Kraton 6s with Max 6 Combo or Outcast 8s RTR? Why?

I’m waiting for that sale.Oh I definitely wouldn’t have taken that deal. Wait for the Kraton 6s EXB to go on sale again and do it that way.
Me? I'd go 6s Outcast, but that's more because the Outcast is silly. It's high energy. It's stunts on demand. Plus the stock body is fantastic. Again, that's just me. If you like the Truggy route more, go with the Kraton. It's popular for a reason and the aftermarket support is ... like Traxxas ... EVERYWHERE.Just looking for opinions.

The suspension arms of the 8S behemoths shatter like glass (only one of their foibles, but a pretty notable one I'd say). They look imposing, yeah. But I'd do the same thing if you gave me one. Sell it unopened.I wouldn't touch the 1/5 8s line with a 10 foot pole. You couldn't give me one. If you did, I would just sell it, untouched. I wouldn't even open the box. Not even joking. The 8s discount was just a teaser to suck you into that slow seller Crap. A rabbit hole of a 30+ pound 1/5 rig. A hard core money pit.
Just my opinion. There are others out there.
I seriously looked into and researched it well from the very first day it was released. A nightmare. And still is after all the dust settled.
I smelled buyers remorse immediately from the start.
I am not averse to 1/5 scale. Just not the Trx and Arrma variants.I have a K6 and a X-maxx. Both are amazing it just depends on the mood I am in. If you were gonna look into 1/5 scales I would look into the Traxxas trucks.
I already have the Outcast 8s. But what other companies make 1/5th scale electric trucks. All i ever see are gas powered onesI am not averse to 1/5 scale. Just not the Trx and Arrma variants.
I would look to dedicated 1/5 brands that have been doing it for many years. If you closely look at the other true 1/5 large scale brands, you will see they are designed more with 1/5 scale and weight in mind. The Trx and Arrma variants are just upsized/upscaled similar parts to the 6s line. With issues. At least the Trx doesn't weigh 30+ pounds, the Arrma 8S line's problem IMHO.
