Technical Performance
The FTAR023R diff output is engineered specifically for the ARRMA Kraton 6S, one of the most demanding 1/10 scale RC monster trucks available in the UK market today. This component is critical to the vehicle's drivetrain, responsible for transmitting rotational force from the differential gears to the drive shafts and ultimately to the wheels. The Kraton 6S features a sophisticated three-differential setup—front, rear, and centre—that allows the vehicle to manage power distribution dynamically across all four wheels, essential for maintaining traction during acceleration, cornering, and weight transfer. The diff outputs must be precision-manufactured to ensure smooth engagement with the differential gears and minimal play or backlash. Fastrax has engineered this component using durable materials and manufacturing processes that withstand the high stresses imposed during aggressive brushless RC driving. The Kraton 6S is typically powered by brushless motors running on 3S or 6S LiPo batteries, producing significant power and torque that places considerable demand on all drivetrain components, including these diff outputs. Using genuine replacement parts ensures that your vehicle maintains the responsiveness, handling characteristics, and reliability that ARRMA engineered into the design. Whether you are replacing a worn component after months of bashing or building a spare differential set for competition use, this Fastrax output delivers the quality and performance expected by UK RC enthusiasts.
