Hope you guys enjoy the video as much as I enjoyed making it and yes the paint job on my RC does change from Orange to yellow at a certain angle thanks for watching
For what you're building, you could've gotten a LOT more for your money with a SWB ARRMA chassis. I'm making a Senton 6s out of a Typhon chassis and towers. It has way stronger differentials than any Slash. The inner bearing size alone is what gives the ring and pinion the support the dinky Slash platform can't compete with. I have aluminum bulkheads, and the rest of it is already aluminum. So, for what you're doing with the Slash, the ARRMA is more capable. You're throwing money at a Traxxas like I did with an E-Maxx. It's never worth throwing all that at weak 1/10th Traxxas drivetrains.
I learned the hard way. As far as those dinky two spider/satellite geared Traxxas diff cups, the aluminum won't cope long term either, as the rotation of the crude sintered steel gears will rotate against the cup inside there, and wear that aluminum down like a bad meth habit does to teeth. Way faster than even the cheapest aluminum cups for the ARRMA. As far as ring and pinions, even the strongest hardened steel will crunch because the tiny input gear (pinion) bearings in those diffs cannot handle the power you're throwing at them. Bearing size is everything with differentials. They hold the gears in alignment. At 3s and stock light weight, that's as much as they're designed for. They're already stressed no matter what materials you put into them. Traxxas purposely designs their models' drivetrains to only handle what they put in them. They're like McDonald's. You get what you get for the most part. ARRMA 6s platform is like Burger King. Have it your way. Like Legos. You just build em' in any configuration and they'll take it without weakness problems. Unless you drop in 8s, huge motor with high punch level. Traxxas just plain 🌬️🐐s.
@all-is-Grass well if that’s the case then why is my Traxxas slash running 12s holding up just fine😉 and yes I said 12s Well let’s get real it’s not a slash anymore. It’s basically a custom RC.
Respect 🫡 I’m not a huge fan of all aluminum builds , but this one is SICK !!
Thank you I really appreciate it

The body looks awesome man! Can’t wait to see you rip it again on the streets!
You and me both! Bro
I just ordered a 23t pinion and a 44 spur also I notice that the wheels in the rear are faced inwards is there an easy way to fix that?
Man!! I cannot get enough of Leroy! 🙌🙌
Well, hopefully, Leroy is pretty much at the end of the road with modifying time to start a new project TRX 4😉
But I think I’m gonna bite the bullet and throw Leroy a race motor in for the final mod
Liked and subscribed 👍
Thank you very much for watching my channel and subscribing
Very good..On fire...
Thanks I’m glad you like it
Beautiful build!! I’ve just ordered my slash. Could you possibly post a part list please
Well, I couldn’t do a parts list because I literally just keep changing the RC combinations so basically it never stays the same for long
❤wow love it
What song do you have playing? ive heard it somewhere .nice slash too!
I will find this song for you
Where is the front sway bar mount from?👀
It’s a custom swaybar mount
@@hardtailrider7172 Ahh, interesting. I thought it was purchased. But now that I look at it closely, I see it was cut out some car piece.
What servo saver do you use?
Looks good
Thank you very much. Appreciate you watching.
