Thanks for the insight on the differences, very helpful in making a decision on which way to go.

Appreciated!

Currently is there any difference in components in suspension or driveline between the XL5 vs VXL kits?
I may want to put my own motor and ESC in and wondered if I bought the XL5 kit if I would have...

That is a prize winning body choice and paint job! you're not gonna scratch that beauty all up are you? LOL

It is a pressed fit so what you experienced is normal. Just make certain that you indexed it to the steel pin securely. I always replaces both shaft and gear during a rebuild instead.

Still available............thanks!

Another look please......

You are in deep on this monster! Wow 1800kv, a torque monster you will be roasting tires:thumbup:
I think you will need slicks for the rears to get max grip for your onroad use? Very cool start Rag...

Bought this for my grandson as a Christmas project, well that turned into a Kindle Fire HDX instead LOL

So I am going to sell this. I...

Pretty easy on the Rally but you might find and small air compressor to be the easiest way to blow out the grit and dust. Pulling out screws each time and putting them back in will begin to wear down...

Send me a bag, I'll let you see what I build :thumbup:
LOL

Anytime you hit a stationary object the impact is brutal!

A arm for sure, I've never broken a Traxxas one but RPM brand is well proven.
Looks like maybe output from trans yoke may be stressed...

Could possibly be a bad connection at battery, could be that something began to bind in your driveline too.
Make sure to do a check through on running hardware, wheel bearings and trans rotational...

Depending how many times you have split the cases on your trans it is often a good idea to get a set of new cases, will give you better bite and more even pull when you carefully torque all the...

Hard to beat the Traxxas Velineon 3500 with VXL-3s ESC. Up to 3s batteries and you have a waterproof system if that is important to you.
Castle Creations of course offers great ESC and motor combos

Nice! Sweet on those SPC's and you will always get great customer service from the owner!
You also have $40 in Gift certificates coming too!

The resistance in spinning the motor freely is normal. The Velineon is a 2-pole motor, the Castle is a 4-pole and that is what you feel when trying to rotate it.
There is more torque in the Castle,...

If you do the Stampede 4x4 VXL with the 7cell NiMh you also get a $20 gift certificate included. Deduct the $50 promo and you get free shipping so your cost to purchase is only $359! I know I just...

Welcome to the forum and it sounds like you have a cool background from Dad's toys!
I am adding a Grave Digger 4X4 Stampede to my grandsons Slash for Christmas, he has always wanted a Grave Digger!...

But isn't voltage only part of the equation for performance? The supply of Amps is the torque/power, does NiMh offer the punch that LiPo does? I assume Voltage equals RPMs but without the proper Amps...

What tires are those?

Thanks for the kind wishes and all back to you and yours!

That is one wicked bird you have there and it looks a bit fried:thumb up:

Happy Holidays!

This site is excellent to answer your questions!

Quick summary:
2s means two cell configuration at 7.4v
3s means three cell configuration...

Did you flip a switch on your controller, go into 70/30 mode or anything?

Sooooo my question is that I want to turn a new 4x4 VXL Stampede into a 4x4 Stampede Grave Digger. I have the Stampede 4x4 VXL and the 2WD Grave Digger is on the way. My plan is to swap over the...
