Shock absorber towers are made of robust composite material to disperse impact energy. Large dBoots ® COPPERHEAD ™ 2 tires are glued to the spoked wheels.
The strength of the chassis is increased by the central support of the body, aluminum central braces and raised sides of the chassis. All-metal differential and transmission gearing, plus durable steel drive shafts, combine to form a durable powertrain that can withstand extreme loads. The proven modular design facilitates the servicing of the model, thanks to the quick availability of important components. Due to its performance and technical processing, this is one of the biggest and best RC models.
The high-strength EXB components used on all exposed parts make the Arrma Kraton 1:5 EXB an unstoppable model.
The durable 8 mm diameter steel tie rod, in combination with the 7 mm steel couplings of the steering, allow it to withstand even extra strong impacts.
Red anodized aluminum damper bodies are filled with oil for realistic ride characteristics. The nut allows for easy spring preload adjustment.
The dBoots COPPERHEAD 2 SB tires with an aggressive tread are mounted on rigid black nylon MT discs, giving the Kraton great traction for instant acceleration and safe braking. The brutal power of the drive can be transferred to the wheels by 24 mm carriers.
The efficient design ensures easy access to the motor, which is installed on a sliding bracket.
The easily accessible, compact electronics module is bolted to the chassis and includes a waterproof* receiver box, servo and controller holder.
The laser-etched 5mm chassis plate is made from durable 7075 T6 anodized aluminum. Composite raised sidewalls are bolted to it. The central support consists of a system of reinforcements made of red anodized aluminum reinforcements.
Durable steel half-axles and metal differential and transmission gears keep the 4x4 drive ready for serious action.
The control of the model is provided by a modern SPEKTRUM™ FIRMA™ 160A SMART controller with a 32-bit ARM Cortex M4 microcontroller, which is able to capture complete telemetry and transmit it to the receiver using an integrated wire in the new IC5 connector. Data is transmitted via the SRXL2 protocol. The controller reads information about the type, temperature and voltage of the battery cells directly from the Smart battery. You don't have to worry about the correct setting of the battery type and its possible undercharging.
The electronics are completely encased in a special potting material that prevents moisture* or dirt from entering the electronics. The regulator is switched on and adjusted with the buttons that are under the rubber cover.
The upgraded firmware ensures more vigorous performance and a certain feeling of driving.
Spektrum Firma 5687 1100Kv AC motor, with internal rotor and 4-pole construction for high output and excellent efficiency. The 8mm shaft is housed in ball bearings, 6.5mm connectors with gold-plated contacts for a reliable and efficient connection.
Control is provided by the S6510 servo with enormous power (moment: 59 kg.cm at a voltage of 8.4V). The servo is waterproof* and dustproof. Durable metal gears provide long life and mechanical resistance. The dimensions of the servo are 60 x 55 x 29 mm.

AVC technology is an advanced Spektrum technology from Horizon Hobby, for RC model cars. This stabilization system brings a whole new way of driving RC cars. AVC technology uses sensors for steering correction and throttle at the same time. Thanks to appropriate interventions in the steering and engine performance, the result is a smoother ride, stable behavior on the level and in corners, and a safer track. It goes without saying that the sensitivity of the steering can be changed, including the possibility of turning it off, leaving everything in the hands of the rider.
* Refer to the user manual for information on the water resistance specification. You can find tips and tricks for wet driving in the blog.
To operate the model, you need 4x AA batteries for the transmitter, a drive battery and an adequate charger for the drive battery.
The model can be operated on two identical 3S or 4S LiPo batteries (11.1V, 14.8V).
Spektrum batteries with Smart technology currently represent the most modern and safest way to maintain and charge batteries. The benefits of Spektrum Smart technology can be found here.
Smart G2 batteries are even simpler and safer, thanks to the absence of a balance connector. In addition, G2 batteries have up to 3x faster automatic discharge into storage mode. Smart G2 batteries can only be charged on Spektrum Smart and Smart G2 chargers.
Spektrum Smart chargers can charge both Smart and Smart G2 batteries as well as conventional batteries. Previously sold Smart chargers, once updated, also support Smart G2.
The model can be further improved using tuning parts, see accessories section. For increased stability in turns, it is possible to install transverse stabilizers with different stiffness.
For the normal operation of RC models, you need tire glue, screw glue, a tool kit and silicone shock oil. We recommend an affordable tool kit for RC cars from our range.
Tire glue is used to glue the tires to the disc rim. It is always necessary that the tire is firmly stuck to the wheel rim all the way around! If the tire is not glued all the way around, it may tear. Tire glue has a special composition that is able to glue materials such as rubber or nylon, and at the same time, after hardening, the glue is flexible. We recommend Robitronic Tire Glue from our offer - see recommended accessories.
Sometimes it is necessary to add silicone oil to the shock absorbers of the model and change the oil in the differentials. During normal operation, there are only slight leaks of silicone oil on the piston rods of the shock absorber. In the event that the surface of the damper pistons or the condition of the seals is in poor condition, the oil leakage may be large. Repair kits or individual parts are supplied for these cases. From our range of silicone oils, we recommend TLR (Team Losi Racing) silicone oils, see recommended accessories.
For routine maintenance, screw glue is needed. Screws screwed into the metal material (e.g. screws in the motor, set screw in the pinion) must be secured against loosening with this glue.
Protective packaging is intended to limit the risk associated with the transport and charging of accumulators. LiPo accumulators can, while maintaining small dimensions and low weight, provide high discharge currents and have a large capacity for a long driving time. Conversely, the LiPo battery is especially susceptible to mechanical damage.
