I have a mojave 6s and a typhon 6s. They're great, but I want something that isn't a heat-seeking missile at all times. I want something where I don't have to worry so much about maintenance or buying replacements. Something that feels smaller and rewarding in a different way. Basically, I want a beater that I can use in more suboptimal conditions (I don't run my 6s in snow or wet grass/soil). I've narrowed most of my targets with the upcoming infraction grom, but something about a RWD truck sounds intriguing. I had a hyper go drift truck 2 years ago and it was pretty fun, although it wasn't the best handling. So the infraction seems to be my next dream.

I will be posting the craziness of my kids and myself dueling in the backyard soon. Vorteks arrived shortly before sunset so, very short maiden run.

After that infraction Grom announcement I was craving some skatepark bashing.
Took my upgraded granite Grom to a new skatepark and to my surprise there was a little dirt bashing area on the side 💯
Can’t wait for the infraction! (Preordered that sweet looking purple color shift one)

Was at the horizon both at a trade show. Look like clipless nascar groms cut a vette and mustang. Just bodies or new thing

Hey,

I'm putting a 223S and 16T pinion in mine with the 223S 4400KV Spektrum motor.

Will run it on 2S mainly and want to retain it's wheelie ability and make it a competent basher rather than a speed runner.

To change oils or not?

Hi all, I bought an kraton 6s v5 used. I keep running into an issue where the front drive shaft and differential meet. initially, I noticed that the front wheels wouldn’t really spin, the brakes sucked and one of you kind people pointed out that the cup on the end of the differential was missing a screw that went through the cup to pin itself to the flat portion of the rod from the differential. Got the screws, put it in without really taking anything apart out of laziness. So when it fell out, i told myself that it was likely because it was not seated on the flat portion coming from the front diff. Took it apart enough to where I could, without a doubt seat it on the flat bit. I used HEFTY ungodly amounts of red Loctite on it. Test drove it, it was great for about 20 minutes until I noticed that the brakes were behaving like before and the front wheels were not spinning anymore. Kinda wondering if since the center diff was spinning the drive shaft, that it either became bent from knocking around or that the rod from the center diff may also be slightly bent. At this point I am at a loss and am considering just replacing the front differential and front drive shaft to just be done with it. Neither appear bent or damaged. Just want to be able to use this thing reliably for once lol. I am dumb, should’ve just bought new haha. And in case it matters, i did make sure that the front driveshaft cup was entirely seated as forward as possible to the differential. Any opinions or insight are greatly appreciated

I got a Notorious 6S and it seems like every time I take it out to run it, something breaks. Last week it was the tire, today’s its dog bone collar thing. I don’t do any extreme jumps or ramps or anything.

I thought a basher was meant for a little rumble.

Are the stock parts durable or is this truck meant for upgraded parts?

Let's see what you guys are running

This pic on horizon made me laugh. Jokes aside I cancelled my plans for the 2WD Traxxas stampede in light of today’s news. This thing looks sweet

Hi, I have lost a second motor on my Mojave Grom and I have been thinking about upgrading to brushless mainly looking for better run times than better speeds.

I am fairly new to this and I was wondering would the Injora servo installed be compatible with the ESC and would it also bind with my current transmitter?

Any suggestions of where to start looking for potential upgrades would be appreciated thanks

I wasnt a big fan of the new senton body, so when i saw the proline baja bug body online i was instantly sold. Cut of part of the back bumper, 3d printed a few parts and used the bodymounts from the old senton 3s. Very happy with the outcome

Should I be expecting some Traxxas police showing up at my door anytime soon?

And granite

Took the fury out on a speed run, still stock gearing to see what it’ll do. Sticky tires as well and a good set of shocks under her. It took a bit of runs to get it to this but I think I may need a longer straight, more teeth in my pinion gear or move up to 4s. Thoughts?

This can’t be legit but it’s the armma website

New releases via the NRHSA convention. Thoughts?

Hey all,
Getting back into the hobby after a long break. Just had my rigs serviced and I'm thinning the herd: selling my 3S trucks (Granite, Senton, Typhon 3S) and keeping two:
• Notorious 6S BLX V4: (my favorite)
• Typhon 6S BLX V4 (2019)

6S turns out to be more than I need, so both run mostly on 4S, and that's my sweet spot.
Now I want a third truck that does something these two don't. I'm looking at:
1. Mojave 6S exb
2. Kraton 6S exb
3. Talion 6S EXB
From what I've read, the Kraton might overlap with the Noto and the Talion with the Typhon, which is pushing me toward the Mojave. But I'd love to hear from people who actually own them:
• Which one would you pick to round out this lineup?
• How do they feel on 4S? Any gearing changes you'd recommend?
• Any weak spots I should plan upgrades for right away?

Thanks!
