    Monster Slash looks great and the OBA makes it sound even better! I'm installing OBA in my UDR...

    Love the upgrade! I wish the link in description to the tires would not be discontinued, do you know where I could get 4 tires like those for my slash?

      Looks like some places online are still carrying them. Not sure if proline has an updated model maybe ?

    Instead of lifting the body, you could lift the suspension and a-arms. If you want to do that also and lower the bod just a little here's the instructions. Either stiffen the shocks or ajust. The car would already come with little spacers to put in the shocks to stiffen them. Put the spacers in and that will just the ride height. Or you could ajust a arms. If u look at the a arms that r stock on the car there are little holes where the shock conects and there more holes on the shock towers. Adjust them in and they will also work

    Hey - enjoyed the vid! Is that a LCG chassis or the normal slash 4x4 chassis? Thanks!

      That’s the stock truck all around other than the big tires and body mounts. Links are in the description. I need to drop to a Lowe pitch pinion. It’ll help reduce the chance I’ve overheating. Thanks for watching ! It’s an awesome mod !

    I've been looking into this setup but seems to make more sense to just get a revo if you don't have a slash already.

    • @ohiorectec6055
      @ohiorectec6055  2 года назад +1

      I somewhat agree. I liked the slash design a little better as far as maintenance goes. And it offered the ability to run manicured surfaces if I wanted. The E-Revo is a great choice if your desired terrain is more rugged. Pick one and enjoy ! I’ve loved getting back into the RC world !

      @@ohiorectec6055 That's kinda where I am. I'm an old Nitro fan. 20 years ago if you wanted to run fast all day That's what you ran. I was drag racing funny cars and sedans and bashing first gen Revos and Savages. So I'm a bit bias to monster trucks I guess. Now I still have all those rigs but recently realized the electric RC game has come a looooong way. I already have a Trx4 and an scx24. Buuuut now my 7 year old daughter is wanting to get something also. Now I'm torn. Get 1/16 slash 4x4s to bash with her or get a couple 1/10 2wd? I'm worried she may lose interest and then I'm stuck with $400+ trucks because she wasn't into it lol. Thats why I was thinking the cheaper slash models.

    If you have 2 sets of the back pieces of the proline kit use both of them you do not need to trim the body

    • @ohiorectec6055
      @ohiorectec6055  3 года назад

      Not too bad actually. I have the suspension set fairly stiff. So it rolls a little easier and is less stable at high speeds. Rough terrain is much improved though ! Thanks for watching!!!

    Did you have any overheating issues throwing on bigger tires? Think about doing this to my slash.

    • @ohiorectec6055
      @ohiorectec6055  4 года назад

      Not so far. The weather temps have been in the high 90’s F here in Ohio. The speed controller gets pretty warm. I let the truck rest 15min between battery swaps.

      We’ve still had no issues after about 10hrs of solid running (2s). I agree with others that gearing it down is a good idea. Just haven’t had time to do so yet. Thanks for watching !

    • @ohiorectec6055
      @ohiorectec6055  4 года назад

      This particular truck with remote (Item Number: TRA68086-24) can be had at most hobby shops for $420 plus shipping. From there you’ll need a battery and charger. Traxxas has a 2 Battery kit with charger for $230. The monster slash parts (tire & wheels and body mounts) was about $50-$60 depending on where you buy. Total in this truck is a little over $700. Traxxas makes several variants of the slash that cost less as well. Thanks for checking us out !

    You never leveled the body out, had you done that you probably wouldnt have had to trim it where you did. You couldlve moved the rear body posts to the front to give it more lift if need be….. plus it looks stupid nose diving like that. jmo
