About The Kraton 8S
Extreme Bash Components
This top-tier RC chassis exemplifies ultimate sturdiness, showcasing the resilient 7075 T6 aluminum chassis plate, etched with precision, that measures a substantial 5mm in thickness, ensuring unmatched toughness. Enhancing this foundation is the eye-catching front brace mount crafted from EXB red-anodized aluminum. The unique EXB body, boasting a blend of matte and gloss finishes, establishes a distinctive visual character.
Powerful Electronics
To give you the most powerful experience possible, Arrma has equipped this monster truck with a brutal Spektrum 5687 Firma 1100kV motor and 160A V2 ESC. The 8S capable motor boasts 10% more power than prior Kraton motors. Steering this massive truck is a Spektrum S6510 steel gear servo that gets aid from the Spektrum SRS6110AT Active Vehicle Control (AVC). AVC allows you to rip around with the most control and power.
Durable Metal Drivetrain
Power distribution stands as a paramount factor in any high-performance monster truck, and Arrma has charged ahead with this monster truck. The drivetrain incorporates metallic outdrives, ring and pinions, driveshafts, and wheel hexes, all meticulously chosen to guarantee optimal resilience. A chassis complete with abundant bearings guarantees minimal power loss during transfer. This robust drivetrain is fully equipped to confront the most grueling terrains, roads, or recreational areas.
Rigid Chassis Bracing
The Multi-Structured chassis reinforcement comprises substantial 7075 aluminum braces, alongside robust chassis side pods. The lower angled chassis supports effectively curtail flexing at the chassis's front and rear ends, whereas the upper chassis brace diligently maintains the central chassis rigidity. This strategy serves to avert any potential bending or deformation of the chassis during the impact of forceful jumps.
