Awesome RC and bashing,fix and let it rip, have a great weekend brother
Thanks bro! You too!
Thats cool u guys built an rc track at the local park 🤙🏼
I can’t take the credit for building it….it is a great addition to the park though
Nice setup, Ovonic batteries are all I’ve been running for the past 3 years, good performance and cheap!
Yeah they’ve worked well for me too!
I had the same problem, I went back to the hcg chassis and added some 2.8 tires along with the monster fusion body, and oh man the slash 2wd became my favorite rc again, mabye it’s time for your slash to get a new look 🔥 keep the videos coming
I like the LCG chassis…..just the post breaking is super annoying….I’m glad you’re enjoying the content! Continue having fun with your Slash!
@@RCKnockout stick with your lcg. HCG flips to much to have fun especially on pavement
HCG sucks compared to lcg.. I would modify the battery tray holder before switching the chassis back. It's not that big of a deal or hard to fix on your own
@@tmar352 I’ve got no plan to switch back to the hcg chassis
Zip ties, they work great for so many situations. They are a quick fix, keep them on hand.
Fun sometimes doing backflips
Oh yeah!
👍🍻Nice Bashing Vid,
Thanks!
and here is me thinking that my 2wd vxl slash on 3s is hard to manage, you got a 4s slash, I wish you the best in extracting the performance on the track with that.
Appreciate the support!
Use a dremel to cut a line into the broken piece and unscrew it with a screw driver and you can mod it with to use the velcro battery straps to hold the battery down
Actually I’ve already converted over to a strap
@@RCKnockout Ok
Insanely quick!!! Wow!
Yeah it’s fast!
@@RCKnockout Definitely! I picked up My Nephew's Christmas gift today on lunch. I can't wait for Him to try it.
@@J1Z06 that’s awesome man! He’s definitely gonna love it!
@@RCKnockout Thanks!! It's beyond cool! His brother had an ECX AMP DB. It has a LiPo battery. I bought an esc and brushless motor or He would get smoked by His brother's truck! Haha!! Can't have that. Should be fun to see the two of them with their own rc's!
@@J1Z06 nice! You’re already getting him started with upgrades!
Double tap the reverse as soon as you get air to bring the nose down, also, I added some weights in the nose, helps a lot with putting speed down without wheeling everywhere
Thanks for the tip bro! 👍😉
I recommend that you get a wheelie bar i got one a while ago and it works very well because with 4s you will just wheelie all the time and it will flip over
Actually I don’t feel like a wheelie bar is that necessary for this car….it’ll wheelie a lot but for the most part it’s pretty controllable
Just set your clutch properly and it won’t wheely
You can get drill bits that run in reverse direction with extraction kits and if you drill slowly on the post with a small bit it may grab the post and unscrew it 👍 If not, just use the extractor once you have the hole drilled.
Actually I have quite a few extraction tools including the reverse bits….unfortunately all of the smaller ones I have are broken…they break really easily when you put pressure on them….the main issue is even if I can get it extracted….it’s just gonna continue to happen on big impacts
@@RCKnockout I hear ya, I have quite a few drill indexes with most of the small bits gone 🤣 Maybe cut a slot in the chassis either side of the battery tray just behind the front lower framework and run a Velcro strap around the battery 🤷♂️
@@scottlesage386 that definitely might be what I’ll end up doing lol
Cool video of your 2wd Slash, I have had 2 Slash 2WD's one kit (I wish i still had) and one RTR that i have upgraded currently my RTR one has no electronics in it and i'm debating if i want to build a new kit with upgrades or keep my RTR and put electronics in it. Mine has proline shocks, LCG chassis conversion, Aluminum bellcranks and might do the Magnum 272R transmission.
Thanks man! I’d probably keep it personally and put electronics in it
I had the same problem with the exact same rc. My battery post kept breaking in the same spot. I took a small cut off wheel on my Dremal and cut a opening on either side of where the battery sits in and just use a normal battery Strap through the 2 openings and over the battery. Works great and easy to get the battery in and out..
So you use the clip in style out of the Slash 4x4 Ultimate?
@@RCKnockout I just use a velcro strap that goes across the top of the battery from left to right. I cut a small line in each side of the battery tray. Put the strap though there and slide the battery underneath it.. then all you have to do to get the battery in and out is losen or tighten the velcro strap. I just used a generic rc battery strap I bought on ebay for a few dollars. It has lasted about a year now and no more losing clips for the battery hold down.
Hope this helps
@@justinhetricck6197 gotcha so you just put the strap directly through the chassis?
@@RCKnockout yes
@@justinhetricck6197 ok thanks!
To get that piece out. , U can either slice it in the middle with a super thin Dremel cutting wheel. And remove it with a small flathead. Or u can trim some of the plastic around the broken shaft. Exposing just enuf to vice grip or plier out the broken piece. As far as after u get it out... It may be more inconvenient but I'd consider a long hardened screw/bolt with a washer to screw down the batterytray top piece
Yeah I’m not super worried about the extraction part….but figuring out how to combat this in the future is gonna be the major task….so your saying I should use a screw through the bottom of the chassis and a nut to hold down the battery strap?
@@RCKnockout no, I'm suggesting u use a bolt in place of the part that broke. U would have to screw it in or out everytime u change the battery. But it would be a much stronger piece of metal holding it down.
@@modzilla74 gotcha….it could strip out the threads though….especially if I’m screwing it in and out each time I swap out a battery
@@RCKnockout if it's screwed in with enuf threads it shouldn't have any strength issues ... But another idea I have is this. ( I've actually done this personally. I put a small slice in the chassis on the upright walls on each side of the battery. And installed a Velcro strap
Use a thicker screw..
Drill a small pilot hole and small extractor will get it. 👍🏻
Unfortunately don’t know any better system for 2wd, maybe some makes a Velcro system????
Yeah I haven’t seen any other options available unfortunately
@@RCKnockout and we all love a Velcro strap system. 🤦🏻♂️😂
@@mateo85tx yeah I know, right lol 😂
Can you do a video on the traxxas bandit? If you don’t have one it’s fine, but it could be cool.👍
I don’t have a Bandit…..maybe one day
What's your speed with that Castle motor I heard they're pretty fast
It’s pretty fast….I wanna say right around 60mph
I have one of those
Nice!
What wheels are those ?
They’re stock Slash 4x4 wheels
Where's the bug body
I don’t run the bug body all the time….
Mine is so weak
Always can upgrade it
