Real slash weaknesses
• rear hubs
• shock caps
• nerf bars
• A arms
• and driveshafts
Those are the main weaknesses of the slash your welcome.
only if its brushless, ive never broke any of those on my trucks
@@mikewilson164 I have and my truck is brushed since I have it for fun only although I have brushless vehicles as well and you are right :D
Mike wilson that’s only bc you drive like a weenie
I've replaced everything except driveshafts
@@stuartk.9104 I've done the opposite now im debating buying more stock ones cause they lasted a while or rolling the dice with a set from ebay... anyone recommend good cheap 2wd driveshafts???
Great video can't wait to see you driving the Slash 👍
Thanks! I know, cant wait!
Slash 2wd is still a great truck for bashing. Love it. bro
Yes it is! Thanks bro!
This is literally why I ended up getting the 2wd instead of 4wd. In hobby shops and stuff everyone was telling me go 4. But the comment sections always are saying 2wd is the way to go if you know how to drive. I’m already in the RC hobby with FPV so lipos are not a problem for me to handle.
Turnbuckles and camber links are the same thing you get the aluminum ones stock usually on brushless VXL Velenion motor setup...
This would be a great video but as a new rc hobbyist I would appreciate if you explained what the upgrades do and the slang terms.
Well done young man!
The RC In Me thank you! I appreciate the kind words!
The axle carriers are nice to keep around cuz I broke in about four of them on my truck
I've been in the hobby for 22 years all Hub carriers and aluminum bulkhead that's it for aluminum
Great video. Thank you for the tips.
You should've shouted out my other account the one you're subscribed to: HG RC. ANYWAY, THANKS AND GREAT VID!
Oh wait, I'm stupid lol!!!!
I did! Lol! There are both links to the channels. Is that ok? No problem pal!
no way! i agree with the spur, but im not sure how your brother keeps snapping rear hub carriers, i beat mine to all hell and it just keeps on truckin. Ive smashed my rear wheels into tons of shit and they hold up just fine. when i say i beat the balls off this truck i mean i really beat the balls off it. Super tough, only weak spot i can find is driveshafts. My setup is a raptor f150 svt model, its got a brushless system from a redcat blackout sc pro, and it has a hot racing rear diff spool locker. Other than that its bone stock and tough as balls
no u you’ve got a good setup! Thanks for the comment!
nobody gone talk about how bald those tires are😳😳
Great video bro
Thanks man!
Great video 😄😄
Thank you!
I had bald ass tires on the back and it drove fine it just did burnouts a lot. I swapped them to the front and vice versa and now I can’t steer lmao. I’d keep bald tires on the back.
awesome video i would love to see a 4x4 slash build
Shawn Thomas thank you! Well, I will look into that, building a slash is a lot of work, but thanks for the feedback and watching!
Started using my slash again. It was unused for I like 4yrs. Still running. Haven’t done any maintenance though.. any suggestions? Maybe some grease or oil?
If it’s working well, I wouldn’t stress too much about it. It never hurts to put some lubrication in the transmission. You can also put some WD-40 in the motor if it’s not running very smooth. That can help loosen it up. Traxxas actually recommends the use of WD-40 to prevent rust and keep water out. Have fun!
@@TheRCGenius I think we have some wd40. Will need to get something for the gears.
What I notice is that if I go up the speed and then let go, it stops pretty quickly, not sure if it's bec of the motor that I bought as an upgrade before, or if the gears are not moving smoothly anymo.
It is still fast though. I'll spray some wd40
It could be a combination of both. Don’t spray a lot of WD-40, just a little. Hope it works!
@@TheRCGenius thanks, I will. I tried programming earlier. Now it doesn't stop as quick. But yeah it needs some love
My setup is rpm hubs and a arm in the rear
Very nice! I love RPM right now!
I hav ony broken one of thoes axle carriers. I find it only happens when you do jumps.
You can run the front wheels on the back but you can’t run the rear wheels on the front because the offset is different
Hey dude nice vid
Thank you my friend!
Great vids man just wondering how you get money to buy rc’s
Thank you! Just working is all it takes ;)
Getting a 2 wheel drive slash very soon, any advice you can give to a newbie
John wick well my biggest advice is to keep it clean. Given how low the slash is, it collects tons of dirt and leaves etc. in the chassis. Another thing is to be careful jumping it without having a downside ramp at the end of the jump. Since the truck is low, unlike a monster truck, it doesn’t have as much suspension travel. This means it could break if it lands flat on hard surfaces. I hope you enjoy your slash and this advice helps. If you have any other questions let me know ;)
I have had my traxxas ford raptor for 3 years and I have never stripped a gear!!
If he brakes stub carriers in the rear that much than his tires are to tight I would now because I race a traxxas slash 2wd so I would stop tightinging the tires that much
Ok thanks for sharing that. I will give it a shot!
i did some cartwheels and broke my nerf bar
whats with the stang body?? interested
Mike wilson I’m just a Mustang guy!
A great video.
But why must the intro music be so damn loud! =)
Idiot
He needs new rear tires
Aluminum spur kills pinion metal on metal bad
*can
Bro switch your wheels
You van swap them
They are different offsets between front and rear on the 2wd slash.
Not paying for talk
