It is worth every penny. 1nce a battery door opened after a mega air..broke 2 pushrod ball ends..thats it..just check out my YT... The new Big Rock have HD joints, HD shock shafts and ball ends...and are also worth the 140 extra.. You would say this and more being sponsored by Arrma and getting yours free for review so it's no wonder your going to big it up fella.

Ocdcbr Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I know we don't always see eye to eye md but I agree with u on this 1 and I'm glad to see you state the obvious here. I tried the sane on urc more delicately and got my op on TP blasted by him brothers in arms. Vas also gets all his Arrma vehicles given too though.... My ears pricked up on that when I commented that he'd not got the xmaxx and his response was the cost.... So traxxas does not give him anything it seems.... But he's owned near every arrma... Hmmmmmm. Move been given some freebies myself... We r discussing this at the mo. I mianed plenty about those cracked wheels tho...and will continue to do so when review vid appears. Back to to this arrma tho. It is a cool looking rc and it sounds like it has improved over the Nero but I thought that was expensive.... So my views on this are def no better. I can't really see why you'd go for this over a kraton. Unless u had money to burn? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mond Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I don't know why people can't be more objective about these instead of get all defensive about brands. Buy what is good value for money, perceived or real but tying yourself to one particular brand and defending even the indefensible is quite silly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johninderby Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 (edited) If the basic design is good but needs tweaking here and there to get it right that's one thing but if you to have to start making major alterations to the basic design to get it to work properly then is it worth the time and money......No. However until someone actually gets their hands on one it's all just speculation. For that sort of money I'd hope it would work straight out of the box and would't need anything major doing to it. So who is going to order one?

Glad to hear you opinion sir. Recived a car or not, i never show my crashes. If people do not bealive me they dont. The reason is simple i have never done it, cuz i do not like it. I do crash, trust me i do. But i can not do anything about that i rearly break any parts on my cars spec the Nero 6s Ofcourse my cars breaks, they do, but not much at all..for example my Nero..i read meters after meters that people breaking pushrod ball ends, shock ball ends, rocker arm posts...what can i do but dissagre that the car only breaks, cus for me it does not. The Kraton 6s is the car that i have bought most spares for..lower arms and shock shafts..never any problem with diffs, gearbox cases, towers.. But to please you and all other that doubts on my honesty, i will make a crash vid from every single vid that i make from now . Been doing this for 34 years..racing for more then 10 years, im sure something of that gives me a little + on how i run my car, but i might be wrong. Just ended a superb session lots of flips doubleflips..landed on 4 wheels.on the nose, 1 wheel,roof..the only thing i broke. Was 2 bodyposts..but..then it is freezing here in Sweden now :-) Best regards Thomas Edited October 3, 2016 by Thomas P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydoddy69 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I'm not doubting you bust them I'm not doubting you have great knowledge and I'm not doubting your driving skills I am doubting wether you would sacrifice your relationship with Arrma to deliver anything other than praise. Guess that's something guys will need to decide for themselves 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
