First E-Slayer... - 08.16.2008, 01:57 AM

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... 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

Let us know how it runs compared to the Revo.

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

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

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?
