Tug Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Blimey, that's impressive. People slated KM for cloning, but they did address issues, including a full nylon Baja. Looks like Corally are keen to supply cars with as few weaknesses as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted June 21, 2020 Author Share Posted June 21, 2020 Yea, they have taken the basic Truggy design and tweeked what parts have shown to be issues with others. Given a chance I think Corally will do really well 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fnknan Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing what they become. Seems like they're doing what arrma should've been doing years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 2 hours ago, .AJ. said: Yes, the front and centre rear are available in alloy, the outer rears and front tower brace you can add carbon reinforcing plates to them. There are also carbon plates available for the arms 👍 Corally have identified a few weaknesses that they are addressing at the mo and will be issuing a upgrade kit in due course, it’s nothing crazy though, there will be thicker arms, some people are bending cvds due to excess flexing, thicker steering turnbuckles, a beefed up wing/wheelie bar mount (Kronos doesn’t have this as stock) and a beefed up Ackerman plate for the steering, ohh and a revised servo. They have said if you break any of these parts they will issue them as warranty replacement parts straightaway if available 👍 thats really good seems they are making effort to be making good cars better 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickarla Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Let's face it, the market was wide open for someone to do it. Everyone else just seemed content to sit back and carry on charging high prices for same old products and mediocre customer service, etc. Good on them. If I didnt have my ST I would be purchasing one. Not sure if it would be worth the switch though. Watching with interest on how Corallys presence shakes things up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorillaZilla Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Good bracing on the back end there, also notice the front brace connects up high on the shock towers, why didn't others do that rather than connecting it lower down on the bulkhead..... Where are these trucks made? Taiwan? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ.

.AJ. Posted June 26, 2020 Author Share Posted June 26, 2020 @Paul Busbywas kind enough to let me have one of the first sets of his bumpers I still need to drill the mounting holes, but I used a bit of double sided tape to mock them up 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has also stung someone on the Arrma groups, those nuts have the Traxxas thread. Tekno and Arrma is different. I have a bunch of really simple red closed ones here, if you want something cheap and basic... been meaning to list them on ebay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickarla Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Those wheel nuts are quite good but I did need to use blue locktite on them with my ST. Without the locktite I had the unpleasant experience of watching a wheel fly off mid full throttle leading to more cartwheels than my brain could keep up with counting 😲 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted June 27, 2020 Author Share Posted June 27, 2020 So I was looking through my spares and i found this servo I that had completely forgotten about...... @CarlC gave it to me few months ago, the specs are spot on for a Truggy, I’m not sure about the colour clash though 😂 https://www.rcmart.com/blue-bird-high-voltage-7-4v-coreless-digital-servo-w-titanium-alloy-gear-35-5kg-14sec-74g-bms-35a-00064120 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
