First E-Slayer...
 

Here you go guys... The first E-Slayer!

I used a Tekno Revo conversion kit. Everything fits just like a revo without any modifications. We will see how it runs at the track tomorrow against the slashes. I'm running:

Tekno Neu 1515 1.5D
Castle Creations Phoenix HV85 ESC
Neu Energy 4S-5000MAH Lipo
Futaba BLS-351 Steering Servo

It looks great, very colorful... :smile: I think you'll find that you need better tires than the stock set. A few (including myself) have seen a lack of traction while using them. Granted, wheel spin is part of the sport of CORR, but I prefer my truck to GO when I hit the throttle. You have a lot of power there, I don't know how much the 4wd will help you.

That looks great .

I can't decide on converting the Slayer ( now i know the Tekno kit fits ) or the AE corr truck when it comes out .

To many toys and not enough money :mdr:

Let us know how it runs compared to the Revo.

^^^ Very tough choice, indeed.

Thanks guys, I'm actually hoping the extra weight and 4wd will help these tires in getting some traction. HOPEFULLY. lol.

looks great!

On second thought, against a 2wd you should do fine! :yipi:

looks great, i didnt know they were shipping slayers yet

thats awesome man, those puny tires arent gonna like that nue though :yes:

Dude thats freekin sweet!!!!!!!!!

Looking great let us know how it faired with the slash...

Thanks guys! I appreciate all the comments...

You have probably 4-5X the cost of a Slash in your Slayer conversion...I'd certainly hope it makes a Slash look silly in terms of performance. If it doesn't kick the crap out of the Slashes, if it were me, I think I'd go cry in a corner.

I wish that Traxxas just made the Slayer electric.

Looks nice! How's it handle?

Skellyo: It might cost a whole lot more, but sometimes it's just about having something different or blingy or whatever. Look at a decked out maxx that can cost well into the thousands of dollars - is the cost proportional to the performance?

Surprisingly I dont know how it handles just yet... I finished it really late last night and had to go to bed to get to work this morning. I'll be at work for a couple more hours then I'll head straight to the track. Cant wait! :yipi:

That's not my point. My point is that to compare a 4WD brushless truck on 4S to a 2WD truck (perhaps even brushless on 2S) is really comparing apples to oranges. He did mention he wanted to see how it compared on the track against a Slash, so my assumption is that he is concerned with performance, hence why I posted what I did.

How did I miss this thread ?!

Love the nick Tekno_Addict. Who are you and how did you get the Slayer so quickly? Either way, thanks for confirming our suspicions with the Tekno kit dropping in. Let us know how it runs.

I'm Al and I'm just a crazy person with too much time on his hands... lol.

I was able to get the first one at Mikes Hobby shop over here in Carolton, Texas. Were neighbors with Traxxas so we get their stuff quick. :mdr:

I love the Tekno stuff man. I got hooked after I did the Revo conversion. I've bought tons of stuff from Impakt.

It handles great, it just needs thicker shock oil since it's now heavier than Nitro but other than that the springs work well and everything handles great. I love this truck and I'll be driving it for a while. :yipi:

Thanks guys!

They reached New Jersey on I think Thursday or Friday - One of the LHS had them in...

Just picked up mine...now I need to order the conversion...

They are out of stock...Teknorc...where are they???? :whip:

It's in stock here bud... Good luck!

:intello:

Ordered...

Thanks

I guess I have a 3.3 paper weight now... :lol:

Same with me... :lol:

It's pretty... Pretty useless. :lol:

It's going on ebay tonight...

so i guess that means you dont need mine....................

Dude!.. I’m sorry I missed this thread.. It’s assume!.:yipi:. I cant wait for some vids.. :yes: Great project.. very envious

Great job, will you have a video of it?

Sorry guys... I know you are all waiting on the vid. I've been slacking. I'll get it up asap. I also added some Led headlights with aluminum buckets. :)

Looking forward to seeing it with the headlights!.. :party:

Also looking forward to seeing your two 808 and Losi 8ight,:whistle:

I'll make sure to get new pics of the Slayer and Video either tonight or tomorrow... I promise!!

I'll post new threads for the 808's and Losi too... :yes:

Well make sure you include showing those headlights in your vid, sounds cool, you gonna get a couple good speed runs also?

The motor is pretty.

Lol yeah, shiiiiinnny :mdr:

it look great, when i ordered my platinum from impakt they had slayers and i was so torn

OK big guy!.. it's been days now, so where are our pics and Video :whistle: :lol::lol:

Tekno_Addict: how’s this sweet Slayer project running? Did you modify the transmission at all; I see the stock brake setup remained? Also still using stock gearing and how’s the ratio?

Thanks for the input and damn nice looking rig!

Is that all?
 

Do I need a Y harness for the brake servo/ESC with a 2 channel radio to complete my e-slayer conversion including the Tekno Revo/Slayer conversion not to mention ESC,motor,battery Slayer?

Yes, just plug the brake servo in one and the ESC in the other. If you have a programmable ESC, shut off the Reverse and brake.
