Leeb Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Just made me laugh is all. I've got a 4s on order lets see after that, I have to say 20 mins running on 2s barely generated any heat in the esc/motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shdaxner Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 I have to say 20 mins running on 2s barely generated any heat in the esc/motor. I should hope so too.....this thing should be run on 4s minimum really just make sure the gearing is sensible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeb Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I should hope so too.....this thing should be run on 4s minimum really just make sure the gearing is sensible. I'm waiting for my 4s to be delivered, just too impatient. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydoddy69 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I take it your still waiting on your esc and servo then but then again its still only been a week so early days .. I have been following a few threads on this and the Kraton and i have to say there is beginning to become a few areas that i don't like, arms, pivot balls, pins, but the main one seems to be the esc, the troubles seem to be on both the kraton and the Typhon . I read another guy having trouble with his and having to send it back !!!.. So your not alone with esc trouble his was on the kraton but it is the same electric's in both !!.. Nothing to worrying yet but there certainly starting to show up with some teething troubles, so perhaps them having such a great customer service is going to be a blessing in disguise Nice to see a little oil in the diff and the motor mount looks well made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeb Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Just had its first run on 4s, holy moly. The motor and esc were warm, certainly not hot but I only got 15 mins in before the rain came. I've had it over some jumps today with about 3 feet of air, no problem. Only thing i've really noticed is how loud it is, I haven't upgraded the gear maybe its that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that the thing is loud hopefully there will be a plastic spur gear released or something 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightrules Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) Well you say that I took it out earlier and my servo broke down on me for the second time so arrma are taking the car and investigating what's happened and might replace the car or fit new electronics but only time will tell Your steering servo has gone bad on you 2x already? Did they replace the ESC? How is the motor holding up? Edited October 22, 2014 by lightrules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
