Anyone into R/C?

Was able to bash my slash for awhile yesterday, put a hard 3 packs though it and had a issue, thought my slipper needed to be tightened and just came home. Pulled it apart tonite and come to find out my slipper pads were shattered, anyone know of a better upgrade for the slipper? Thinking more pads will work better distributing the heat but too lazy to really search to see if thats a upgrade option or not.

 

2wd or 4wd slash?

 

4wd

what im seeing most people do is run a revo pressure plate and revo heavy duty pads

 

get rid of the slipper with this lol

Ehh i got one in my parts box somewhere, I tried a few different weight oils and figured it would be good on a track but for bashing i didnt really like running it and went back to the stock slipper.

 

just put lik 20k diff fluid in it and it will be good for bashing

 

lowest i have is 30k and that wasnt bad but still liked the slipper. Ill order some 20k and the revo slipper stuff that way i can try both, haha

 

search the forums to see what diff fluids people use in em lol that was just a guess cuz in my 8th scale i run 5k-5k-3k in my diffs so i figured something thick would be good for bashing lol

 

ill do some reading then, haha iv got a ton of different weights but the lowest is 30k, highest is 500k

 

i have a slash 4x4 and im thinking of selling it. me and a few friends got super into it and are over it now. i got like 3 or 4 lipo batteries and 2 lipo chargers and i upgraded the front things to the blue metal things and i have a set of the proline bowties i think? and i got a pinion gear that supposedly makes it go faster. as you can tell i know pretty much nothing about rc cars haha. so based on that info what do you think i could get for it?

 

$350ish based on condition. Depends on the chargers and batteries too.

Just get on craigslist and see what similar slashes are going for.

Just in case anyone might be interested. Never shipped anything like this but I wouldn't be opposed to doing it I guess.

 

yay

 

<3 the GT2

 

yay

 

Been contemplating a 5ive b lately, the above posts dont help much.. haha

Did pick up a 1/16 e-revo vxl today tho, for $110 shipped with rpm parts i couldnt pass it up.

 

axial wraith or scx10 whats the benifits/disavantages of the 2 trying to narrow it down on what i want

 

scx10 = smaller tires, less suspension travel, less ground clearance, more scale

wraith = bigger tires, more travel, more ground clearance

Really depends on if what terrain you are going to use it on and also whether you want a scale truck or a rock buggy. I went with the wraith because I wanted a bigger truck and more ground clearance. Plus I love the looks of the killer cage!! Even though I chopped part of mine off... haha. Mine's actually for sale if you are interested. Lots of upgrades and extra parts.

 

Bought a Tekin sc4x 4.5t with 5mm shaft today for $50 . Came with a sensor wire and 3 pinions. Now searching Craigslist for a MMP to run it.. (Cause I can't afford a RX8 haha)

 

new layout going in at my home track!
