Having a good landing ramp is definitely less stress on the RC and it looks much better than landing flat on the ground. Nice bash, the Sedge is a beast 🔥
Those sledge session at the Meat pit are always entertaining. You made me laugh with your : "I tried to rc dude 81 that 💩" 😂😂😂. You really should put a nut on the front chassis brace screw. I did it on mine never lost the screw again. Killer session 👊🏻💪🏻
Thanks bro I can’t believe I let this truck sit on the shelf for as long as I did it’s so awesome to run. It’s on the workbench now getting a nut on shit that didn’t even sound right you get what I’m saying.🤣👍
Thanks a bunch my friend. Glad you’re enjoying them. I have so much fun doing it. I just figured why not share my fun with y’all I’m glad a few are enjoying it. That’s my goal.👍🚀🤘
Sweet bash bro!! I enjoyed it very much!! She is a beast, no doubt. Good thing there's aftermarket to keep this thing breathing.. I wonder, do you think it would be wiser to just skip buying a Sludge and buy the parts needed to build? A DIY Sludge!! Gotta admit, it's got a ring to it.. Call it "Sludge Unlimited💰"🤣🤑
Thanks man appreciate that. Yes, that would definitely be the way to go but quite a few people don’t know what parts to get to put these trucks together for some of us Yes, that is a wise decision.👍
Awesome video man, your the reason I got my sledge, I’ve had it a couple months so far an it blows my mind how much of a beating this thing can take with just a couple upgrades
I ve been wonderin when we d see this animal again!! I can t stop thinkin about this rig since you let me run it Aldo!🤜🤛. Thanx once again. This run was NUTS man! The transfers were dialed bro, unreal. I will get one of these. ✌🏻
Thanks Phil just been busy with other cars. It’s hard to keep up nowadays between work and everything else going on. Trying to find a happy medium of bashing, wrenching TH-cam work and family. It doesn’t seem like it’s much from the outside but damn does it take a lot of your time, you need to get one of these bro I wasn’t thinking, but I have everything here to put a stock one together if we would’ve had more time and thought of it, we could’ve slapped you one together for cheap to get you started 🤷♂️ next time I guess.
@@AldoLoyal Bro, I don t know how you do it. Respect to you for the efforts and time you put forth. I havn t put a video out since we bashed! Shit, great idea about sourcing a Sledge out of your spare parts, might be worth the flight!! Good luck on finding the balance , I’m sure you ll figure it out(or your wife will!). The channel is killer man, and I love the new jumps🤜🤛
Awesome run Brother Aldo 😜!!! Man you were nailing those smooth transfers. Nice to see the Sledge back at it. Bummer on the camera issues. My GoPro hero session 4 finally started overheating and shutting off mid video this past summer. It was 106F out and I was in the sun around 2 hours wrenching and bashing. Thought it was a fluke, but the camera overheats now with minimal use in cooler weather 😝. She lasted since 2016 so I can't complain. Hopefully you'll get it sorted, maybe a warranty claim. Great stuff as always Bro 🍻🚀🚀😎💪👊👊
Thank you Rich this is definitely one tough truck and flys really well with a little bit of speed behind it but that’s all thanks to M2c 💪 of course On the camera issues I think I know what happened to it. I have to send it back to GoPro once they look at it they’ll determine if they’re going to warranty it or not. I finally got it to turn back on with no screen I could just control it through my phone app and that day it went down. I was switching back-and-forth to slow Mo to get those killer flyby shots and must not of remember to turn it back to 30 fps so I was filming in 120 fps and it just overheated the camera and it did not come back on. It was crazy still had sound just no video. Anyway, I guess I will learn eventually I’m not gonna play around with different settings. I’m just gonna get it to work and leave it be anyway brother thank you as always. Have a great Easter.
Ha ha I know exactly what you’re talking about. That’s funny I watch some of these guys and it’s like they’re doing it just for the fame 🤣and the little money. 😱😂 if any at all they can talk a good game but when it comes to bashing it’s just no good, I’ll leave it at that. Thanks for your time my friend.
@@AldoLoyal My favorite Short I've done is LANDING a skate park jump and it got like 33 views. The just launch it into space puts me to sleep. Till next time!
Great slow-mos. I try to RcDude81 my crashes so I can keep going as well.... running about 20% on that endeavor. I cant wait to see even 60-70 degrees up here on Vancouver Island..... let alone 80s-90s!! That Sledge is set up to take a beating! Great vid!! Love the content! Wicked Bash session.
Thank you Lee yeah brother it’s 70° when I get up at 4 AM in the morning our temperatures are crazy here in Florida I don’t mind the high temps I just don’t like the humidity and when the humidity starts getting up around 80 90% or higher then I have to gear my cars down so low it’s not even worth going out bashing but whatever we all have our issues I just wish I had a little bit of yawls cold thanks again my friend.
Love the video! Starting up a new channel from Texas! I live near Traxxas HQ so I might be biased a bit but the Sledge, XRT and Xmaxx are my favorites I alternate with. Need to grab a fireteam or 6s kraton to build up titanium for kicks see if we can make it reliable. Kudos!
@@AldoLoyal Take a look at the GPM chassis, seems to have a couple slider bars to protect most of the screws/anodized coating. Also has thicker 5mm edging. Looks like it may be a step up. But I don't know if reversing still works on it. That may be a deal breaker.
Thanks man that’s awesome. That’s our low temperature in the morning. I just wish we had a little bit longer of a winter. It makes it so much nicer to bash in that kind of weather.
The weather Aldo in UK, Raining windy ,it mainly is.But if ya buy a new RC then the rain ,wind and general greyness gets 3 times worse.Sweet Shredding of ya Sledge in the pit.✌️
Thanks Johnny yeah it sounds like that weather over there sucks but when you grow up in this kind of heat your whole life, the shit gets old. Seems like our winters are getting shorter and shorter. Hope your weather gets better soon. Thanks for your time my friend.👍☀️☀️☀️
@@Shellzwick yeah, the stock set up is horrible when you look at it from my price perspective, the trucks not worth it nor will it stand up to anything else but being tough after upgraded there’s not even anybody close
@@AldoLoyal yeah the price was ridiculous. I got it cause I didnt know better cause I was new to the hobby around that time . I still think they should make a plastic chassis option . What you think ?
Thanks Dennis can’t believe I let this truck sit on the shelf for this long. I was running this truck a couple times a week at least time to get back to that this thing is a beast.💪💪👍
Sweet! Very entertaining! Love my sledge. Currently doing an upgrade series on it now. Why do you have the front shocks so droopy? Also, is that an Easter Egg I see on the back wing?🤣
Thanks man I like to keep the front a little loose if possible to let that chassis work up and down more freely to try to keep the wheels planted. I don’t know if it helps but it seems to I don’t get the Easter egg thing you lost me on that one🤣👍
@@AldoLoyal good tip! I’m talking about the Arrma sticker on a Traxxas. The term “Easter egg” is something placed out of the ordinary and hidden somewhere in a video. Like a “where’s Waldo” sorta thing. Edit: could be in a video game too.
@@rctd3260 oh, I gotcha I just did that to piss off the Traxxas fan boys. If you look at all my Traxxas rigs, they have arrma stickers on them somewhere and then when I turned them into monsters, I’ll put the EXB sticker on them.😂
Great session as always! Curious, does your Max 6 combo ever cut out on you when hitting your jumps? My Sledge is basically identical to yours but with different high powered fans. When I hit jumps and car just leaves the ramp, my finger will still be on the throttle and there will be NO action. I have to release the trigger quickly and go back at it to do any backflips, or for air control. I’m geared 20/46 as well. How long do your combos last you? I’m thinking my ESC may be dying or something? Or maybe I’m an idiot and it’s supposed to do that?
Thanks man no I do not have that problem. I’m geared a little hotter than that. I’m 22/46 but it’s definitely not supposed to cut out mine doesn’t the only time it did is when I was geared too high what size Lipo’s‘s are you running? That could be it two if you don’t have enough punch from your lipos my combos like that will last a good while if I’m geared right if I’m running them hot a lot then the motors don’t last long but a few months.
@@AldoLoyal thanks man. I run a Gens Ace 6800 mAh 100c ‘Advanced’ as well as 7000mah 100c Zeee 6s packs. I noticed that one of my bullet connects that goes into the ESC was semi-loose. I was able to pull it out without any effort so perhaps that could be the case? Soldering I know is good. Have tried different receivers. Even considered gearing down but I don’t want to do that at all. I have another Max 6 1650kv combo that I may pull from my KXL just to see if there is a difference.
@@AldoLoyal sorry for not clarifying. That’s exactly what I did. The fit is a lot more tight now. All that’s left is waiting for my vitavon diff cases and she’ll be back together for a testing.
That doesn’t happen to me bro 😂 No I’m just kidding around. I haven’t had any issues with my servo saver loosening up on this truck. I’ve got two of them and bash the shit out of both of them one for testing and one for my personal use and neither one have I had problems with the servo saver.
She’s definitely heavy specially once upgraded, but I’ve only broken a couple hinge pins in the past year once upgraded that’s not bad at all by far my toughest basher🚀💪💪
DEAD PACKS, NOT DEAD TRUCKS!!! those transitions are wicked! especially over a huge gap like that!
Thank you Avery you guys turned this truck into a monster thank you for all you do.
Another sick bash session!
Thanks Bro 🚀💪🤘
Always love the sledge. Just butter smooth landings great bash
Thank you this truck is pretty sweet, not too many things not to like about it. 🚀💪🤩🤘
This channels starting to become my favorite 😎
Thanks man I’m glad you’re enjoying the channel. That’s awesome.
Nice launches Aldo! She is a beast, no doubt! So glad I got mine together, can’t wait to give it some launches 🚀 I have been impressed so far 👍
Thanks Aaron dude you’re gonna love that truck man. It is such a monster with the M2c upgrades. It’s almost indestructible.💪💪

Thank you I love mine as well it’s a super tough truck💪👍
Alway got killer videos bro. Keep it up. The commentary always makes me chuckle.
That’s a sweet set up you have.
Thanks a bunch my friend. Glad you’re enjoying them. I have so much fun doing it. I just figured why not share my fun with y’all I’m glad a few are enjoying it. That’s my goal.👍🚀🤘
Nice driving all sharp and rested first thing in the morning 💯🤩🔥👊🏻💪🏻
Thanks man Yep I ran that truck first thing in the morning and in the afternoon it’s such a fun truck to run🚀🚀💪👍

Crazy crazy nice air bro love it .
