Slash 2wd Street truck

[S2KROB]

Hello all,

I'm new to Arrma but been building RC trucks for 2 years now. Here is the one that started it all. Is the only one that I won't sell...lol.

Very nice clean looking what was the rough time frame on the build

The body to me about 3hrs from start to finish (waiting for paint to dry). The rest of the rig I guess took me mouths as it was work in progress. From when I first got it and trying to see how fast I can get it will the VXL equipment. To throwing that idea out the window and going 8th scale power. The next part of development was finding wheels that handle the new power. Even now I have blown GRP wheels. Thinking of gearing down or powering down to 4S. This Slash is about 2 years old, it was my first RC so it has evolved while I have learned about the hobby.

That's good just starting to learn about upgrading as for a rebuild don't know enough yet to start closest try so far is to revert my select four 10sc to look a little like a trophy truck

That's the fun part, grabbing a RC and adding your touch to it. If you need any advice just send me a message.

It's looking nice, very clean with the dark LCG chassis. What motor and KV you running?

Thanx It’s the castle mamba sct Pro with 3800kv motor pulled from his ecx ruckus.

Nice, you can get some good speed with that setup with the right pinion. But you have to keep a lookout for heat.

Converted to 32p with jato 56t spur and 12t pinion. with the slightly larger tires should be okay I hope.

He will be running 3s.

That shouldn't be bad, your gearing is 4.66 to 1. Are you going to be running road or off road?
