I don't feel right

It has taken some time to get the suspension tuned in to where it handles better then when I first had put it together. The slash tires just don't seem like the belong or do well on the RC they were designed for. Seems that is one of the first things people changed. The slash/slayer tires work great on the LS10.

Don't touch me. Your not my priest.

I haven't had a whole lot of time to experiment with different tires or even run it this slash yet. As UPS would put it "Due to adverse weather conditions". It seems to have a lot of wind drag. I am thinking if I have the fan blow in the other direction it should do much better and still keep the living room cool.

What's wrong with my body!

I tried the body from my slayer on it but it just didn't do anythng for me with the tires I had on it. Just seem too big or something. I am using a body for my e-maxx. Added some LEDs to it that plug into the 3s. All the wires are in the body sections so just need to plug it in.

Thank you and good bye.

Thanks for coming and don't forget to tip your waitress and bartender. They count on them to make a living.

Encore

You might have notice the chains on the tires and the plastic I added to the bottom. Been stuck inside house for a couple of days. Due to adverse weather conditions. The snow plows are making it to the residential areas and I finally got the street outside the house plowed. I took it out ot try it but the chains were hitting the body. So instead of fixing it I grabed a different RC and went out to play. I mean went out to test the RC. The plastic on the bottom was just messing around seeing what I could come up with what would go through or on top of the snow better. It isn't lexan so it will break too easy to be practicle. I would use a lexan if I was going to try for something more durable. Also tried a couple of slash-splasj type gaurds on the inside of the chassis. Bent a peice that goes around the front and then a couple of side boards for the esc. I've been meaning to get the slasher receiver box for a couple of hte RCs.

Legal Notice

The fan was for amusement only. No actual fan is being used on this Slash. If that fan was being used on the slash. Then the names in this thread would have changed to protect me. Actually this thread would never had been written.

So long and thanks for all the fish.

Thanks again and post your comments or questions. Wait! If you read this and thought it was too long don't post your comments. Nobody forced you to read the whole thing. You could of done like me and just looked at the pictures. You must have no less then zero post counts to comment or ask questions. Okay now post your comments and/or questions.
