Almost seen that magic smoke yesterday. lol One 3s, followed by 2 2s lipo's back to back in the sand...wow things got hot and killed a spur gear from the sand....but what an awesome time!!! Got so...
Thanks dude. I am having a blast and really enjoy this truck. Wish there was a good offroad track around here cause this thing handles way better than i expected. May end up just having to make my...
Thanks for the reply and experience shack. I am totally on board with what your saying. My stock setup will not run 3s back to back even with stock tires. So i am sure a Castle setup will be in my...
The more i look into it and check it out the more i like it. Interested to see how fast they break once they start shipping.
Locked rear axle and super scale looks are very nice!!

Great stuff guys thanks for the experience and advice. I don't think i will ever go more than 3s for this truck. When your offroading there is no way to use anymore than 3s, heck i am still trying to...
Think that is the route i need to go. Cause i am still rocking the stock slippery tires....once i add badlands the heat is gonna get real bad. Even worse if i got 2.8 badlands. Castle just has to...
Got the MIP xduty axles in the slash today....should have been the first thing i added. So much smoother and didn't blow into parts under the 3s and heavy finger. Not sure if it is the added weight...
That is what i ordered up. The A arm was totally my fault i ran it half speed into a washing machine...it didn't stand a chance. The other stuff has just died or broke while trying to drive around....
Oh and I forgot the other nite killed an a arm...but that was my fault.
Thanks liberty for the advice. Right now I am just battling keeping the car together long enough to drain a full battery. Lol first it was servo, then spur spun, now 3 broken axles in one day and to...
Good luck dude. Glad there are some tracks still going in places. Oregon only has like 3 and only 1 dirt.
Understood. I bought the 3S before i read about heat problems on 3S, but i am not having any heat problems so far on stock gearing. I don't do speed runs and so far can't really drive around at full...
Threw the stock servo in the trash and added a Savox 1211SG. Centered the steering up to the servo and set the end points. Glitch buster is in the mail, but running it around a little without it...
4S....wow that has to be crazy fast. Do you use it for just speed runs?
lol Nice. Yes it is amazing. I am not much of a drag race straight line guy i really like corners and jumps and for that style of driving it is crazy fast and hard to control when you push to the...
Oh man with the stock gearing it is plenty fast for me. Still trying to figure out how something so small goes so fast. My other Rc's had all been brushed motors...brushless just doesn't stop...
Day two...and the servo is dead. lol Two more s3 runs in the book before the gravel and dirt in the bellcrank finally killed the servo. And yes i know gravel is hard on rc's, but my driveway is...
Oh man. That is the down side to more weight for sure. Sorry to see it get busted up but i know you will get it back up and rolling.
Ya i can see that, but it is already fast enough to blow parts all over the ground if you drive dumb. Cart wheeled it like 6 times today and once was at least 5 feet in the air. lol Might just be...
Oh ya. Battery is about charged again...then back to the dirt. Can tell already this thing is gonna be a lot of fun. And I need a bunch of 2s batteries. Lol
Now I am wondering if it is because of...
Great job dude that is insane... faster than you can see.
Now this slash is my first brushless car and first time running 3S....but i was not expecting that. lol Full throttle does not exist with 3S. Or at least not in a straight line it doesn't. Gonna...
Good stuff Razor. Been watching your channel for a while and good to see the build thread. Now take your camera to the track. lol I dig seeing track vids before and after changes.
