ARRMA RC Truck 1/5 KRATON 4X4 8S BLX Brushless Speed Monster Truck RTR (Ready-To-Run), Orange, ARA110002T2 Review

I purchased this rc car two weeks ago and it was great while it worked. It went through light dirt and cement terrain, so I have not put it through jumps or water at all. On the 4th day of use the car would not go reverse then would go in reverse on its own. Eventually the car would not move at all, I went through all the diagnostics and even took it to my local hobby shop. It turns out the transmitter and receiver are no good. What a disappointment from a $900+ rc car that I have only done…

Made of glass. Looking forward to an off-road session when nothing breaks. Rear suspension arms didn’t make it 5 minutes & 1 medium-sized jump. Front one broke on run #2. Replaced with RPM all around and hoping the arms are the main weak points & I won’t find more. For $900 & all the hype about how tough the truck is, i really expected better in terms of durability. Also slow out of the box. i’m sure once i invest several hundred more $ it will be better, but I didn’t expect to have to spend…

Mala inversion, solo la use 40 minutos y ya no funcionaX Maxx es mucho mejor camion que esta basura de Kraton Not water-resistant!

It’s a lot of money for a RC but once I did it and it arrived I can’t stop smiling over how much fun it is to run this thing 5 time’s out and it’s still doing great.I would recommend to those looking for something with great handling and good cornering not really a basher fun to watch coming out of turns and coming right at you.

Description on amazon 17.12 pounds my 16 year old couldn't handle it. they also made me pay postage and restocking fee. your mistake, I should be reimbursed. Horizon Hobby is a great company made several purchases at my local hobby shop, and now a few at amazon. I really don't know were its amazon or horizons mistake but I do know it is very misguiding

Bottom of chassis dented and scratched out of the box. On top of that, some hack at Horizon Hobby used a black sharpie to cover it up.No more Arramas for me, I’ll stick to Traxxas

Great truck is very heavy so if your into jumping, use drywall tape and shoogoo on the body or else the weight of this beast will crack in several places, tires came vented, rear differential and center differential came with very light fluid , good of your a winter driver, upgraded the front bumper and installed mud guards in the front , this is not a beginner rc it will definitely cause severe injury if it hits you great for intermediate to experienced hobbyists, turns are not that sharp but…

I got this truck and I was impressed at first , I drove it 2 times never got it wet and the ESC burnt up , very disappointed i paied upwards of 1000 for this truck and it broke due to a defect when it was made .

Really wanted to like this truck. Guess I got a fluke. Truck did not power up out of the box—dead. Was not interested in repairing a brand new RC truck out of the box so returning to Best Buy. Best Buy continues to get 5 star rating from me, they were very helpful in the return process. Waiting for Thanksgiving to be over and will take UPS tomorrow (Friday) to return it. Thought would try to reorder another one, but think not. Maybe will wait till Best Buy carries a Traxxis XRT, then will see…

It took me a while to get to the 1/5 scale and so glad I did. This thing is a beast and takes jumps and thrashing. Very fast and durable. So glad I picked this model. Super fast and fun. You wont regret this choice.

✅ Great basher if you’re a pro. Size and power are unmatchable to any RC available in the market.❌ About 20 mins of playtime on 8S at 10,000mA (Using two 4S batteries of 5000mA rated at 100C each).

Ten minutes In. Boom broken control arm. Great truck but should not break on first run. For the price and they put plastic arms? Come on. Ordered the aluminum ones. UPDATE: I have four runs in with this car. Having charger issues with the spektrum I’m on my second charger! Still no balance. Now I have a blinking red light. No throttle. Listen to this warning before you spend all this money you will regret it. It’s garbage.

I bought this for my guy for his birthday, loves it! But you need to buy the remote and battery pkg separately for another 350. for a thousand bucks at least include a f$@&ing battery lol

The Arrma Kraton 8s is an absolute monster both in size and performance. Its such a rush to drive. From the minute the esc boots to the time I bring it in I'm smiling. It carves the turns like it's on rails and just hooks up right away. For as heavy as it is it floats through the air off jumps.

This is for someone who has at least 2-3yrs of experience with very fast R/C vehicles. 50+ MPH and over 30LBS can be a crazy combo. I love it!

This thing is a beast put the right thing on it this thing is awesome love it would recommend to everyone Limited battery charging options.

Epic Epic Epic then i broke it. lol warning this is not a toy. but if you decide to play with it have fun! anything you don't break but cannot fix probably isnt worth keeping. this may be life advice but yeah you will break this thing if you get lost in the moment. heres a few Technical advice.1) Use the Trim features of your RC Controller. remember the safety of yourself, property and others rest upon the trigger and the wheel control. The faster the RC goes the mores sensitive it is when it…

I own several Kraton's; the 4s, 2x 6s, and the 8s Kraton. Not only is it the biggest, it's also the toughest! I absolutely love it. A little pricey but worth it!

I love this kraton 8s alot more durable than some videos say some of these people the way they bash they would break any truck I bash pretty hard and its doing great

This truck is fast out of the box. Drive it slow to get familiar to avoid wrecking the truck. It arrived FedEx ahead of schedule.
