Another project for me... -
07.08.2008, 10:02 AM
Just bought most of a traxxas slash. I will need some parts, but have most of it here in my pede spares bin. Not sure what motor and esc I will use, but I do have a spare sidewinder and a traxxas vxl motor. And I think I have a 9l laying around somewhere...

Looks like fun, I just got tired of messing with 2 wheel drive especially for off road. I am much more inclined to convert the slayer.

The Slash have plenty of space for a 3S3P. If I had one set up like that, it would provide hour(s) of fun  .

i agree with texas, i had a jato and though it was fun it was a squirly bugger. Rather just deal with 4 wheels drive.
good luck though, will be sweet when it is done.
I fly, I drive, but most of all I crash.

Yeah, but its really hard to have fun. I know I'm a better driver now because i only owned 2wd's except for my E-maxx (which was always broken) for a couple years.

Just bought the wheels and tires for the slash. I will make my own slayer when the parts come out. I have a complete revo, that I built from brand new parts, and it will be the basis for the slayer. It is alrady converted to electric. It will be a few months before the parts are available, so I will play with the slash till then! I like 2wd, except for the braking...

I agree with Pimplinc  , I want the Slayer parts to put on my Revo 3.3, plus the tires would fit in the wheelwells on my Chevy Crew Cab, sweeeeeeeet!!!!!!

Makes sense now...
I will have the 4 tec done in a week or so, just need the parts to show up...
And I will most likely not have the slash parts till next week.
In any case, TDC, you have not been on here long enough to remember the brand new aftershock I bought almost 1 year ago. I have yet to convert that truck, it is still in the box, brand new... Worse part is that I have a pair of 3700 4s fp lipos, a cc hv85, and a kb 10xl just sitting here. Just have to make a motor mount, battery trays and wire it up. I will get to it...
