Things a ripper for sure! I just picked up a Traxxas UDR this Tuesday and it's awesome!
Sounds awesome man! UDR looks like a ton of fun!
Very cool project…thanks for sharing
Glad you liked it!
There's something nostalgic about two wheel drive
2wd can be a lot of fun for sure!
Cool fun fast machine .
Thanks! It’s a ton of Fun!
Nice video loving all the build videos, just put a castle 5700kv motor and a sidewinder 4 in my slash 2wd with a 19 tooth pinion and 83 tooth spur and it rips so far no overheating problems
Thanks! That’s a pretty high KV motor,
glad it’s working well for you 👍😉
Yeah I screwed up and ordered the wrong kv hit the wrong button lol
@@chrismorgan9290 well as long as it worked out in the end
Hi mate I had the same problem so I've put some rubber under under the battery post. I punched a couple of holes for screws to go though it moves a bit but that's fine. Looking forward to your next video mate 👍🤪😁😁 I used truck tube rubber 👍
Oh I gotcha! Thanks!
A bug body on a two wheel drive buggy will never go out of style. Would the Rustler 2wd wheels work on this?
Agreed! I’m not sure if the 2wd Rustler wheel’s would work on this or not
I built my vxl 2wd slash into a road slash by keeping the stock front tires and making the rears a 2.9 53/107 db boot hoon tire and doing ssome susspension tuning like shock placement adjustment, pre load changes, and camber adjustments made it into a good machine. Other than the motor/ esc, what else did you use to mount the motor up? I know I will probably get stseel gears, but what gear ratios did you use, did you uses a clutch delete, and did you upgrade the diff gears, I have a sesaled diff wth stock gears and some diff fluid, but other than that, my trans and gear setup is stock.
Yeah it’s got 13/58 gears (32p), it’s also running the Drag Slash 272 Magnum R Trans
I have louise belted tyres on my basher. They have extreme offroad tyres for 1/8cars. I guess they have some for 1/10 too
Never heard of them…..I’ll have to check them out!
Hey nice video. I was wondering what hexes you are using?
Thanks! I’m using the GPM wheels hexes
Nice.! 👍 👍 👍
Duratrax makes some nice tires,I like the sixpack sc
I’ll have to check out some of their tires….thanks!
@Chris Sap sweet!
Your able to get a replacement shaft from castle for the old motor
So I’ve been told…I’ll have to look into it
At 1:42 you could keep the stock tray and as you hand is one doubled zip tie from receiver box to esc side and then again the other end of esc of that makes sense Nolan
I’m not sure exactly what you mean?
@@RCKnockout use zip ties across the lipo instead of the black strap type thing that goes over the lipos length ways
🤔 have you ever seen how Rocky of Thunder Rc would tape around his X maxx so his lipos wouldn’t pop out in his huge landings
@@gonzodetroitify no I’m still not entirely sure what you mean?
@@RCKnockout 🤔 from nurf handle to nurf handle once lipo in place as it’ll not want to come out once in as zip ties will be taught right upto lipo casing
@@gonzodetroitify oh I gotcha…..that might work
Hey man! I’m looking to convert my slash into that setup, can you still use the traxxas battery’s on it? Like is it the same plug in plug? 🤔
The plug that came with mine was an xt90….you can buy it without a plug and solder whichever plug you want onto it though
Thanks man I appreciate the help 👍🏾
@@chilote44 you’re welcome 👍😉
So you know what I’m going to try out Nolan
I’m going to try and double up some very thick zip/Cable ties across the width of the slash 4x4 and the ends of the lipo tray 🤔 and see if that holds true and try not to get the joins underneath the chassis as that’s snag on anything not flat whilst running that way I can run gens ace 3s 8000 100c lipos tho they’ll be very heavy I don’t jump that much so I’ll gain very long run times
You’re talking about holding a tall battery down with zip ties?
I would put your ramps at the other side of the road asthe car is jumping into the ramp before launching..cool videos for sure though!
Thanks! The road itself kinda disrupts the jump too
I had duratrax six pack sc on mine. They were nice til I stripped out a hub 😢 I’m running badlands on beadlocks now, they are a little bigger diameter than stock so they rub on the stock body. They probably won’t rub on the bug body but I run my bug body on my trx4 so I’m not sure 👍
Yeah I’d like to try something different besides the badlands but we will see
What issues did the vxl system give you? I'm currently running the vxl system in my 2wd slash
It started overheating and hitting limp mode all the time….then the bearing fell apart on the front of the motor
@@RCKnockout I keep a close eye on the temps in the summer as the temps get way to high, but in the winter, the temps stay nice and cool. Do the temps stay cool in the summer for you with the new motor setup
@@charliemaybe yeah the temps seemed fine
Congrats bro great whip 👊👍
Thanks bro!
Hello,
Thanks for the vidéo.
Motor 3674 in 1900 + ESC 100A for 4s run is a good idea ?
Glad you liked it! I’m not familiar with that particular motor and Esc setup
@@RCKnockout really, low kV + long motor + 4s = torque power 🏁💪🏁💪
@@zackfair7697 nice! What brand is it?
@@RCKnockout supersonic rocket RC
@@zackfair7697 interesting….I’ve never heard of that brand
Nice bash
I put A hobbywing 4s system with 3670 2850kv motor into my 4x4 slash.. Stupidity fast on 3s and smokes any 3s stock vxl slash
Awesome!
Man you need a real Ramp! Made mine for less than $50 at home depot.
Those are real ramps
Fun Fact: Slashes love trees! lol @ 4:55
Very true!
Do traxxas lipo batteries work with this?
No the ID ones won’t work….if they’re not ID batteries you could solder on the correct plug
@@RCKnockout I was hoping to solder the right traxxas plug on the end of the castle esc. Will that work?
@@rileyward19 yeah that would definitely work if you wanna continue using the Traxxas plugs
Sand pallets for the Grass
Velcro straps for the battery...
Agreed!
I like bad lands 2s
I do too! I like them but I’d like to try something else
You need to 3D print the extended post. Then you can carry a few extra with you. 👍
Carry a few extra what?
@@RCKnockout Battery post. They even have files to print the hold down bar also.
@@Mad4saxBrewery gotcha……but the post would have to be metal though……plastic would break immediately
@@RCKnockout True. You stress your trucks more than I do! 🤣🤣🤣
@@Mad4saxBrewery yeah I’m not easy on them lol 😂
That ramp was more like hitting a wall. You should have a smooth incline. That was hard to watch 😅
Proline street fighter tires
Get metal battery posts
The post is metal….there are no other options out there
I think the ramp is braking it. Not the fall
Yeah the ramp did break it
Try solid rubber tires.
I think I’d break parts running solid rubber tires….no cushioning…
My slash has the same body but I have the pink pig body
Nice!
You really need to build a ramp with a curvature to it. All your doing is slamming your car chassis into a wall and is what is probably breaking everything. You should be able to hit a jump and have minimal chassis contact on the ramp
That’s true…..but I don’t have the space to build a ramp let alone transport one
Look at duratrax six pack mt
I’ll have to take a look
Trenchers Tires
I’ve already run trenchers….they’re ok….not the greatest though
