Doing break in on exact same truck for a buddy. Same thing.. head bolts loose. 1st time ice ever encountered that with traxxas in all my years of running nitro. Very strange, but fun little truck.
I have a question I'm trying to break mine in and it takes off when I start it this is my first nitro I'm thinking I need to adjust my idle screw but I called my hobby shop and they told me to check my linkage arm which I did mess with it but no change. but when it takes off u can't stop it even with the brake fully applied it still tries to go forward. any help would be appreciated since Traxxas won't return my call when I call customer service.
@@twisterzman ok thank you. ill give it another go tomorrow when I have more time gotta head to work shortly but really hoping to have it up and going by the weekend looking forward to having some fun with it..
Nice video buddy And great break engine start i remember when i bought HPI baja 5sc was my first step i removed All wheels because when i start the engine not out of the control l😂l and after 3 tank i blow it and play that was in 2013 but now i'm left the nitro and gas no more smell and disturbance i'm happy with the electric Really wonderful video i liked thumps u👍p
Thanks, i appreciate it. Nitros are cool, but it is nice to just throw a battery in and tear it up and not have to worry about someone complaining about the noise.
Yes theyre good trucks. I just followed the manual for break-in of the motor and been bashing it ever since. I love it just stock up on glow plugs and nitro fuel. I will recommend u get a glow plug egnighter rather than using the ez start thats the only downside.
I think i was running 30% in this video but i have since switched to 25% because a friend of mine gave me a few cans of VP racing fuel he had laying around. most of the time i run Riches Brew from Randy's hobby shop in Houston i get his 30%
Yea i had a slayer pro when they first came out but got rid of it for something else. Ill have to get one of those too it is nice having 4 wheel drive.
Thanks for mentioning loose head bolts , I just got one , would have never thought about that , always had electric, again thank you
Thanks for watching. Glad i could help i'm more into electric but i love the smell and sound of the nitro cars too.
No kidding, I am about to break-in mine and going to double-check that beforehand.
I have a electric slash myself now I'm looking to get the slash nitro is it worth it in ir opinion?
Love it, more nitro to the RC community
Thanks, man. U just can't beat the sounds and smells of a nitro.

When it starts, adjust your idle. They can be off from the factory. Small increments counter clockwise.
You can back it off before starting, approx 1/4 turn and see how that works for you

Yea same here i have never had that happen. I wonder if its something they do new for shipping.

Are Nitro Slash good trucks? Looking for my first nitro
Yes theyre good trucks. I just followed the manual for break-in of the motor and been bashing it ever since. I love it just stock up on glow plugs and nitro fuel. I will recommend u get a glow plug egnighter rather than using the ez start thats the only downside.
Yeah bro pretty cool bro
Thanks.
Do you use a hump pack in the truck and a fail safe?
As of now im still running the AA batteries but i plan on adding a hump pack and no fail safe i haven't broke down and bought one yet.
Where can buy one brand new?
Traxxas sells them, also u can find them at most hobby shops and probably on amazon depending on what color u want.
Does the car have brake?
Yes it does but being this is a 2 wheel drive version only the back wheels have brakes so it skids if u lock them up going fast
30%?
I think i was running 30% in this video but i have since switched to 25% because a friend of mine gave me a few cans of VP racing fuel he had laying around. most of the time i run Riches Brew from Randy's hobby shop in Houston i get his 30%
Does it come with the 2 speed transmission???
No, unfortunately not i want to look into a way to add one, tho.
Fuck it I’m buying one
Do It they're Bad Ass I love Mine.
Needs Four wheel drive
This is perfect as a 2wd I've had the Slayer Pro thats the 4wd version and they are both cool in their own way.
Slayer pro was better
Yea i had a slayer pro when they first came out but got rid of it for something else. Ill have to get one of those too it is nice having 4 wheel drive.
For 4wd
