You should all jump in... doesn't matter about parts, unless you're really stupid with them they don't break and even if they do there are plenty of parts available on Ebay chop shops around the world, plus RPM and Hot Racing cover every part apart from the chassis. There's nothing to fear lol.

Good!.... Arrma make great 1/8th stuff, my Talion is by far the most reliable/durable car i've owned and more people should get them lol.

The front wheels will try to turn at a different rate than the rears and its the centre diff that will have to cope with the difference, subsequently  they heat up and melt or explode. Doesn't matter how thick the oil is, you will have problems..

I would always keep the same ratio front and rear......A guy tried it on his Arrma Talion or Outcast i cant remember which, and his centre diff just kept melting....this was mainly on 6s tho. 

Awesome trucks, despite complicated looking design are meant to be pretty easy to work on. Will be quite heavy tho.

The Talion is a traditional truggy, the Kraton is the same thing only with a roll cage/bar thing, extended hubs with bigger, wider wheels, different front shock tower and a slightly different layout to the electronics.......a monster truggy if you will......the v2 and v3 Talions differ slightly aswell.

They are based off the Team Durango DEX8T which is a racing truggy. Lots of the parts are interchangeable.....less with the v3's tho. 

You still not made your mind up yet? lol. I'd go for the Kraton over the Outcast. It's a better allrounder.

And  RPM, Hot Racing, GKA, T Bone and others provide upgrades....also check out the Arrma forum, i'm a member and they're a really helpful bunch there.

No, beefier servo mount as the older ones had too much flex, new shock cap protectors, new radio box, new strengthened diff housings and new front lower arms...probably more.

The 2018 version is out i think, maybe not in Britain but im sure you can get them.

You showered with your lunchbox!...... Might try that with my Tamiya Boomerang....

Plenty muddy!!, enjoy the cleanup lol.

She is actually a good driver but just lacks patience and suffers from road rage.......thing is she hated cars and did not drive until she met me, now she is obsessed and has recently been talking about trading in the Volvo for something faster ie VW Golf R or Honda Civic Type R.......think i created a monster.

Ok then, a £400 Escort.

It is good that nobody was hurt and i really hope she does learn her lesson.....although im not holding my breath. I thought when we got the Volvo she would treat it well seeing it was pretty new with super low mileage, obviously not........think i'll fix the Volvo, sell it and buy her a 90's Ford Escort for £300 and she can bash it all she wants lol.

Oh no everyone was fine thank god, she thought the driver in front was going to go through the set of traffic lights but they slammed on the anchors after crossing the actual line and the Volvo went straight into the back of it. The mrs is quite a speedy driver tho who is always too close to the car in front.....thats how i knew she would have a fender bender eventually.......new front bumper and headlamp required.....doh.

As long as you dont pronounce it like the Americans do lol.

Think i might crack open the vodka.

I think they might bud, you will be fine for width but it might be a squeeze for length...unfortunately i dont know what the stock esc and motor are or what they are like either. I have a Hobbywing setup in mine and goes like stink on 4s.

I gave it a quick measure last night cause im looking for new batteries....140ml x 50ml .... not great. Lovely buggy all the same.

I bought the electric roller version, it has been solid so far. The battery tray and esc mount are quite small tho.

Doesnt matter who drives for Mercedes they will always rule, the cars have been that far ahead of the others. Even with all the chassis design changes next year they probably will still be no1....shame that there is always one team that dominates so much. Hopefully this will change one day.

Is that the Fazon and Outcast?  Not much info unfortunately.

Thieves could try to get in my house if they want......i have a very protective German shepard cross rotti and a staffy who would love to make them feel right at home! 

I have had all the Forza's over the years....best racing sims available.
