To those with mod 0.8 geared, long can slashs...

[Just go Play]

E-sav I like your taste in trucks.
FWIW my preferred motor in my street slash is an hv6.5 on 4s w/ 13/54 gearing. It runs much cooler then the vxl or 8l motors did on 3s.

Let us know how your setup works out.

A-ha! The man who built the Super Street Concept Slash.

I based my on-road truck on seeing the pics of yours. That thing was sweet. I reckon we had the two meanest looking Slashs. Maybe one on Flat irons with a Desert Rat shell would pip them, but it'd be close.





I just want to reiterate, the motor is expendable, I don't really mind what happens to it. I will be finding a far higher quality motor to go in it as soon as I get round to it. If it weren't for Medusa pulling out of RC it would have a 3100-60 v2 in it already. Obviously I don't want it to damage the speed control in it through the rotor demagging so I will be monitoring temps very closely. My friend runs one of these motors in a 4.5 kilo E-savage on 4s, so it should be ok in a Slash.

Done! Last minute change of heart on the motor. It's just not overkill unless it's an XL. Power is... ample.

Little vid of it in action. Can't open it up though, don't really reach over 1/2 throttle.
