Kraton Chassis And Suspension

When you want to bash hard, the Kraton 6S is the RC that will get the job done. “It” has a Strong and durable wing mount design, refined to add longevity when hard landings are on the menu. Combined with revised rear hubs for additional strength and reduced wear, the Arrma Kraton 6S is ready for the rough stuff, straight from the box.

The rear suspension of this monster 6S also features red anodized adjustable shocks. Both the front and rear shocks have been refined and include longer springs, 4mm shock shafts, and an updated damper tune.

A new rear bumper adds protection to the rear-end of the truck.

The steering blocks on the KRATON 6S have been revised to add strength in this highly-stressed area.

The gearboxes have been beefed-up; strength has been strategically added in key areas for even more durability.

Heavy-duty 4mm steel shock shafts take big hits in their stride and offer amazing durability.

The material has been added to the servo mount to increase the stiffness in this area, sharpening the steering feel.

Two hook-and-loop straps, fitted perpendicular to each other, provide a secure fit for your batteries. The secure fit means batteries can be safely mounted side-by-side or one on top of the other.

Shock cap protectors keep the shock caps looking good. They also protect the body from coming into contact with the shock caps and shock mounting hardware, prolonging the life of the body shell.

Arrma Kraton 6S Basher

This Kraton 6s is a great, durable RC vehicle. “It” is built extremely tough. The only downside that I can find to this vehicle is, the esc seems to have some issues. Some of them are fine, however others are not so. There are several that come with I don’t know what you would say. Maybe defective! They seem fine and work well, then all of a sudden the esc burns up. That seems to be far and few in between.

Do you self a favor, and get a replacement esc as well. “I” just buy a roller chassis and install my own electronics and everything is great. The Arrma Kraton is an extremely powerful and quick R/C that is great for bashing.

Feel free to leave me your comments!
