Kraton Lots learnt , lots not , diffs r us . Good fun though

[razz007]

So today’s mission , which I excepted was to launch the Kraton as much as poss to learn as much as poss …. And on the first launch of the day , yep , I bust the rear diff I’ve fitted the full size copperhead 2 , not the LP to aid with landing . So I quick ear plug lock the rear diff later , she was tracking straight and true , she jumped / crashed many many times and nothing else broke . I adjusted my go pro with out my glasses on and the last lipo was in slow mo and the picture looked fish eye anyways , it was awesome , to get a successful launch and land well very satisfying indeed . Enjoyed that a lot . Oh and thanks to my corally spark for donating its motor as I cooked my spectrum one yesterday . Locked rear diff on lawn is appalling

I don’t worry about looks I would have needed 50 wing mounts today with all the arse end hits she’s now gonna get stripped out ….. again , I’m back to work for a couple of days then I gonna convert to typhon tlr chassis , in fact , all typhon except Mojave arms , I am also moving the muck heap to a smaller gap but a much better run up , hence going buggy to fit thru the gap more carnage soon . I love this hobby , it’s great , a different toy every day , sometimes two or three times a day too yeeee harrr
