What rear driveshaft axles should I use for the rear of my slash?

[Slashbuilderseller]

do you drive shaft axles keep on flying off when I go full speed. What universal driveshaft axles should I use. I'm using traxxas plastic axles. those seem cheap. I just need something that is on amazon, budget friendly and is strong

 

[PonkyKong]

The HD ones if you just have a 2wd.

You sure you got the right length driveshafts installed?
What is top speed?
When are the axles flying off?

I vote mip. Haven't heard of those breaking too much.

If you're looking for cheap but dependable driveshafts I have the plastic Extreme Duty shafts on my 4s Slash and I have never broken one. I'm the guy that trashes everything, if they can survive me they can survive you.

Ill second the MIP recomendation.

What I see is that quick acceleration on a 3S 4750kV 3660 motor with a rear diff locker blows them off. I don't know what else would be the reason

 

[81exige]

isn't 4750kv on 3S AND a locked rear diff ridiculously harsh for the stock drivetrain? no wonder that decimated the stock rear shafts
with that KV rating I'd run it at 2S tops

 

[Mrgoodwrench35]

If I recall correctly, I'm running a 2200kv or 2400kv motor in my 3s slash. Castle mamba max pro combo from 10 years ago. Still rippin.

Why lock the rear diff?

I want mine to do wheelies

If you get the sealed diff, and tune it, it will do wheelies, and still handle as well as a slash can. I dropped a MAX10 G2 2400KV combo in mine, with the stock diff, no tuning, and it did wheelies, standing backflips, and handled like it was on rails. I ran it on 3s and 4s. With the kv you have, and the 3s lipo, you should have no problem getting on 2 wheels.

Mine still does wheelies.....

Mine still does wheelies.....

I am using an xteam 3660 4650kV motor with an onyx Brushless HH esc, and a Lectron Pro 7000mAh 77.7Wh 3S lipo

Is there any problem with my setup?

 

[Mrgoodwrench35]

Yes. The KV of your motor is a bit too high. I'm surprised your not having heat issues. Especially with that heavy of a battery.

Do you have a temp gun? If not, id invest in one. Cheap on amazon.

If not, a good rule of thumb is after 5 or 10 min of running, you should be able to put your finger on the motor and hold it there without it burning you. If you can't, you'll end up smoking the motor or esc in pretty short order.

The motor barely heats up, but the esc heats up HIGH TEMP
