When your kid parks his own crawler in the garage...
Traxxas slash 2wd after I relaxed the stock motor we burned out. 2S HOOVO LiPo battery.
Drove it up and down the street a few times to see what it can do according to my gps watch. I was giggling in absurdity at this. First photo is the second run. 1/3 mile total distance.
How do? It’s 86/19 gearing. Maybe if I changed this around, but I trust the GPS just because it’s proven me it’s accurate. I had plenty of road to get this to max speed for the gearing.Either your gps is off or something is wrong with your car. Even a 2s lipo in a 2wd slash should be a lot faster.
Ok, I assumed you were brushless... its probably working fine.How do? It’s 86/19 gearing. Maybe if I changed this around, but I trust the GPS just because it’s proven me it’s accurate. I had plenty of road to get this to max speed for the gearing.
Swayzeexpress just the stock Traxxas 12T motor. I considered upgrading to the Velineon VXL-3 and 3500 brushless motor just for the waterproof motor. It has the added benefit of 50% power options so my kids can grow into the power, and I could restrict it if his kids or other adults want to try.
I’m not baller like you. Yet. After the next motor burns out due to water I’ll go brushless for all three and maybe grab some 3S batteries for myself.Ok, I assumed you were brushless... its probably working fine.
My kids are 6 and 7, playing rc their whole lives. I used to just wrap thick tape around the trigger as a limiter when they'd just bash into everything lolHow do? It’s 86/19 gearing.

My youngest is almost three and does well. If we drive together it’s more fun because he hits the gas full throttle so I have to drive appropriately while also having no control over the speed. It’s…skill building.My kids are 6 and 7, playing rc their whole lives. I used to just wrap thick tape around the trigger as a limiter when they'd just bash into everything lol
snow fun
from stock capra it only has stock trans and chassis leftThose are quicker than I thought, how do you like it?
Tell me moreThrow a little brass on the knuckles, a 500+ oz servo and a decent sensored brushless setup on it and really have some fun.
Grab any of them that tickle your fancy except the sport. 2 speed and selectable lockers are where it's at and the sport ain't got either.Tell me more
I want to get a TRX4 for myself, and a TRX4m for the kiddo for his (7th) birthday this summer
