TRAXXAS SLASH BRUSHLESS SAND PADDLES

[TheJack387]

Is 93/16 too high/low for a sidewinder 5700kv on a slash?

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

@TheJack387 Depends on the battery you are using. On 3 cells like I had here I was running 86/12.

86/14 would be a good gearing also. Just watch your motor temps.

[Superthecod]

where is this at

[Superthecod]

where is this i know ive seen it

[DpStewy20]

Nice Video!

[calduramax66]

is this the river in ripon CA? IM Takin my slash down there soon tons o trails n stuff down there btw sick rig

[XxspinebusterxX]

that thing has alot of power

[FmxAlexBmx]

Is this just a dif. motor? And is it really worth is? this seems to have to much power. What other power upgrades are there?

[Germanlova1]

Are you using stock shocks? If not what shocks are you using? Thanks and sweet vid.

[killerkyler56]

did you get this online? if so what website?

[draven3907]

That's going to be my next car to buy, I like traxxas rc car's and truck's. if you have take a look at my Rustler vxl it go's 100+MPH

[haroking78]

54 bridge! :D

[jakubfree]

@haroking78 in lehi?

[ochad67]

out a spure gear after that i beat. try a 83 spure 20 pinion. it works good in the sand. the moter doesn't get hot and you still get good power put some jato front arms on it it will handle better at high speeds. paddles are 17.95 and wheels are 16.95 if people want to know.

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

@ochad67 No, all the gears were fine. The 83/20 gear combo would smoke this motor, that is way too high. I believe I was running 86/12 or 86/14. I dont have a problem with the trucks handeling at speeds. It wont run over 55mph without flipping over backwards anyway.

[hunterboy502066]

that shit is on steroids

[fmxx250]

hey wat modles this and wats been done to it cause im gonna by one but dunno wat once are good and wat but this one looks pretty good so wats been done to it and wat modle is it

[novabrian]

Traxxas Slash 2x4 or 4x4? What should I get?

[cvgbcs]

how much does the battery last?

[201andrew]

ya me to im gettin 3500 vxl velineon system for my stampede xl 5, i hate brushed, they weaken qiuckly, evn when i broken it in,im gettin it for 120 bucks, do the trac=xxas trde in value, ull get like 35 % off! u give them your old shit, and trade it in and pay the rest

[bartfader2]

what brushless is it

tnx

[skyfual]

is that stok

[Pimp90Daddy]

that thing has alot of power!!!

[G1Pogorider]

hey guys just wondering if you could buy a new motor for the slash and plugged it straight the the stock XL5? would it cause problems?

cheers, and nice rooster tail in the vid.

[richarded22]

@G1Pogorider stock or brushless?

[G1Pogorider]

@richarded22 just a brushed motor?

[G1Pogorider]

hey guys just wondering if its possible to buy a new motor and plug it straight to the stock XL5 esc? would that be bad for it? i am talking about the slash by the way.

cheers

and nice rooster tail by the way

[yamaharhinosrule5]

would sand eat the elecs in my 4wd brushless slash?

[coolmann95ify]

i would have flored it a that small jump

[fabtec4life]

how much were they and what part#?please comment

[fabtec4life]

what are the sand paddles called and how much they were and the part number please relp

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

@fabtec4life google proline paddles

[5193550656]

man thats a beast

[ThePhiltastic]

Hey What gearing do you have?

[weegee609]

I JUST got a BRUSHLESS and there is a BIG change in speed

[kalishaROX]

dude thats so cool and kinda funny

[X1AaronW]

That looks really familiar. Where did you film this?

[Superthecod]

@X1AaronW where are u thinking of

[nascar99999999]

i hate when its stoke and no modifications to the shocks and driving it on the concrete because it always wants to tip over

[kingsOtheOkiteboy]

could i put a BRUSHLESS on my tamiya mighty bull??

[G1Pogorider]

yeah hell yeah, i cant wait, going to be insane, but thats when i get money haha, yeah i like have lots of packs, hate just going for 20 25 min then going home, i bash alot

[ashnbrandon1]

jump in water lol

[adb140275]

yeah take the brushes out of a brushed motor and see what happens....

yeah, thats what i thought.

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

what are you taking about. He never said anything about taking brushed out of a brushed motor.

[skogpekka]

@adb140275 ...you, my friend, need to read up on what's happened in the RC-scene the past 5 years or so...

[koolerv8kid]

That is a shit load of power in that little truck. The power to weight has to be equal to a trophy truck! Kick ass!

[shadow71199]

lol thats guna fall in the lake lol..

[G1Pogorider]

hey nice vid, i am thinking about getting a venom 7 cell, wait i think its 7 volts, i cant remember which one it is, but anyway i was wondering if this would be good for a stock slash, can anybody help me??

[pieman12345678987654]

yes those battiries are super good lots of punch and runtime i have 2 of them they are so good

[G1Pogorider]

thanks mate, thats lots of help really appreciated =)

[ilikefire90]

get a 7 cell 4500 mah or higher u will get a good 25-30 min. out of it driving at high speedss

[G1Pogorider]

oh true, what venom? or another brand?

[ilikefire90]

venom is alright but i would go for like team orin, traxxas, or even trinity there all good batteries

[G1Pogorider]

team orin sounds all right, i will have a look at local hobby shop and see what they got, going to get like 4 or 5 packs so can stay out there for longer.

[ilikefire90]

dang... thats alot of packs... r u going brushless soon or ever if so get a good charger that can charge lipos

[pieman12345678987654]

@ilikefire90 if trinity is so good then why did i have one of their nimh battires explode in my e revo. isnt nimh sopossed to be the safe type?

[rannylikesfarts]

can u buy a brushless motor for a stock traxxas salsh?

[kknbafanohyeah]

no you will need a brushless esc too

[weasle319]

this is the vid that made me go get a brushless slash and brushless revo

[kingsOtheOkiteboy]

what is the diference of a brushed and a brushelles??

[soccerrox3697]

wow!! nice vid

[cobra02411]

Looks like some rabid, pissed off animal... Gotta get me one. What motor are you using?

[ProductionsNolimits]

look at desc. thats the motor

[zstorm911]

nice one, you cant bog out the motor with the sand which will destroy it

[gijsjeradijsje10]

thats uhm...fast

[hillbillykid1]

What scale is it

[cdm121880]

You tired of answering the same questions, yet? Lol. Nice job.... looks crazy fast. I have zero experience with brushless r/c, but thinking of taking the plunge with the Speed Passion GT V2.0 with the matched 8.5 Comp motor, for my son's Rustler. How would this compare to a Mamba 5700kv? Thanks, and keep the vids comin'!

[TrunkMonkey006]

what are sand paddles?

[wweraw5678]

where did u get the sand paddles

[gp40mc]

Awesome truck. I think I might get the Stampede VXL.

[wildbanchee3]

where is that it looks like a good bash spot

[Username142536]

It's the little rc car from hell. :)

[fitbik3]

what scale is that?

[cannon8800]

1/10 but it's a true 1/10 scale truck. not like the t maxx where the wheels are popping out like five inches.

[EARTHza323]

where can i get one??? im in LA

[abracing199]

pretty much any hobby shop but it wont be that fast

[CRAZYTHUMPSTARS]

wicked roosts. the acceleration is awsome

[ilikefire90]

wat would u pefer. the traxxas brushless system, novak balistic 8.4 turn with 3s esc, or castle sidewinder. on a 2s lipo 5000 mah??? i need help cause i want a pretty fast slash instead of stock.

[trxslashdriver]

go with the velineon system cuz traxxas made it for traxxas cars and trucks so it will definately fit in the mount and you will be happy with the product it is wicked fast

[alwasmy450r]

Tekin 3.5 Turn with 4S 11.1 V and it would be fast

or mamba 7700KV with 6S 11.1V it could run very fast on dunes with paddles

[34kevin34]

it would suck if it went into the water. unless you have the waterproof 1

[fcdrc]

awesome traxxas

[guitaplaya94]

Im planning on buying the velinion brushless system, is there any otyher parts like the steering servos that might break off, idk. wheels? Anyone respond thx

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

nope, your good to go

[BigDuke6ixx]

Is that the Blackwater river?

[gatekeeper501]

Where did you get the paddle tires?

[AR71X]

amain

[Gushmaeu]

OMFG whatta engine! :D

[SuperJarBear]

is that stock other than the paddles

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

no.

[VWBAJA2112]

So a year later,how does the brushless hold up to the dust?

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

Probably would be fine if not on 3 cells. I have been trough 4 Castle motors and on Novak 4.5hv. All of them was due to a front bearing failure. Not dust related though. It was all the rpm and heat.

[SuperJetski1]

@VWBAJA2112 its sealed so good.

[aaron5830]

is this a stock slash or have u tuned it because it goes REALLY fast

[trailertrash20010]

it has a brushless system...

[laythrain]

thats some serious roost

[lectricorange]

how soft are your rear springs that truck really squats down when you hit the gas.

i would recomend putting more weight in the front so it does not do as many wheelies

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

but then it would not do wheelies lol. stock rear suspension. front is duratrax evader shocks.

[250RRaptor]

how long did you charge the battery and how long will it run

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

charges in an hour or less, lasts about 25 min

[polar600prox2]

it sounds like your gonna eat those paddles if you keep driving there, it seems kinda rocky

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

tires are cheep....

They are really sweet on short grass!!!

[polar600prox2]

but rims to? do you know how to get the glue off? and with the paddles on grass, do they rip it up or just get amazing grip

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

i buy real cheap wheels. they get awsome grip in short grass. even throw a little grass rooster tail, lol.

[johnwo1]

Is vxl slash the same as xl-5 or vxl better.

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

VXL slash is a 1/16th scale not 1/10th

[stuntjunkie53]

that the 1/16 scale?

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

no, a quick look at the video post date would ckue you in that when this was taken the 1/16 slash did not exist.

[feeder123456]

i run both nitro and electric and find electric trucks are faster and a lot less hassle thats a great slash very cool

[wordreet]

Haha! None of that sand is where it was when you arrived! It's all moved by about 6 feet!!

[JoeNitroStar]

What rims did you use for the rear paddle tires? Are those stock Slash fronts? Thanks

[lsubeaux]

im just asking anyone but do u no if u make a slash brushless is it still water proof?

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

no,

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

just some cheapo wheels

[themag221]

the graphics are so amazing nice job !nice spot too !

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

They are factory out of the box painted, but thanks :-)

[themag221]

i mean the video graphics.. ;)

[danihj86]

you mean quality?

[themag221]

i hate to speak in english i mean the way sand is blasting everywere, i could had be done on some grasss or whatever, but no and its make evrything look more special

[lightsaberdudes2]

Dude,you do know that driving an a electric in sand don't mix 'cause my motor got sand in it and it killed the motor

[bayouboy94]

if they dont run on sand they wouldnt hold races on sand u dipshit

[lightsaberdudes2]

Did I ask you ?

[MrThemEe]

I THINK that If u have brushless it doesn´t matter if u drive in sand but if you have brushed yes, it destroys the motor... Mine broked :-(

[errorserver3000]

Dude where did u get it? its sooo coooooooooool !!!!

[PPRORRACER909]

get the traxxas slayer not the slash

[amorton94]

Nitro sucks ass!

[lightsaberdudes2]

nitro is awesome how can you say that

[amorton94]

Nitro sucks. You could easily whoop a nitro with a brushless, and it's alot cheaper than that nitro crap.

If a fart could scream, it'd sound like a nitro.

[lightsaberdudes2]

not if you had a nitro 4-tec

[MandKProductionz]

is this by meyer park in houston?

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

nope. near ymca on 249

[Colemanski6712]

oh darn. it looks like a place near my house!

[Colemanski6712]

its in Colorado, right?

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

no, houston tx

[Colemanski6712]

i know exactly where that spot where you were racing is! I live near there!

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

oh yeah? well where then?

[anythatarent2]

that thing is powerfull!

[sooradio]

is this vid shot in london ,ont?

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

no.

[DirtyTerlit]

just got one mne doesnt do tthat crap and mines a gas 1

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

what did you get?

[john1966elliott]

Take it to beach or sand dunes !!! It will be great, spins longer sand.

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

took it to the beach a fewm months ago. was pretty sweet!

[john1966elliott]

Yeah, Cool !!!

[bubbyriggins]

we talked way back then i had no slash then after i got 1 now i have a brushless with sand paddels thanx :-]

[Jakedude1000]

what is a brushless im new to this rc stuff

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

google it

[bubbyriggins]

it is a fast motor 4 ur rc only works 4 electrick no gas bout 200 dallors hope it helps :-]

[wtsig76]

awesome power

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

BOOMSHaKKa LLaaKKAaaa

lol

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

in the sand!!

[mirob933]

did you run this at saddle brook park lmao

[SupraRZ95]

Damn. you can hear the paddles hitting the body. That's frickin leet!

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

Yeah, this wheel tire combo the tire sit like an inch or so out of thee body and give it a very wide stance. so yeah, lots of rubbing but also lots of haul ass. lol

[pilots05]

Thats nuts! What KV are you running?

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

think that was a 5700kv and 5400mah 3cell lipo.

[DETPower]

now thats a SLASH!

[kart59gtr2driver]

thats scary fast! lol

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

thanks

[g15perez]

i got this car but i lost the body:(

[CardNox]

Then your just buy another one ...

[rmoura100]

sick littler car

[snobmxman101]

who makes the paddel tires??

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

pro line

[snobmxman101]

thanks bro

[TreyceH]

What brushless system are you runnin? and battery?

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

Mamba max 5700 and venom 3 cell 5400mah

[bubbyriggins]

also aint water proof

[bubbyriggins]

iv just got a slash 4 my b day 2 days ago and there fun and its stock but still faster than my rusler.how much 4 brushless kit

[howtowakeakar]

~$165 for the VXL, $150 for the Mamba.

[bradyhpifirestorm]

what brushless system and what battery are you using

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

I was wide open but the truck never got up to speed in the small area it had. tires dnt wear hardly at all in sand.

[arabdeedeedee]

thnx man jw it looks like it man lol but thats an awsome car

[rwdisgreaterthanfwd]

Thanks!
