Default Some dune ridin'

Today went to some sand dunes to test my Wraith and Slash 4x4 and did some video recording:



Enjoy it

Very nice. The slash was flying. What is your set up in it? Wraith was awesome too. Liked how it was pulling the left front tire up climbing thr dune.

Thanks for the comments.

The Slash has a Mamba Monster 2200 kV with 20/54 pinion/spur, and 4S lipo's. I still can go to a smaller spur but i don't think a bigger pinion will fit in the case, and i can go to 6S but i believe that with 4S the motor will be running cooler, besides it has stupid amounts of torque so i don't think it needs more voltage than that

lololol @ high speed wheelies.

I wish I lived close to the desert.

I'm getting a used Slash 4X4 tomorrow that came with a Honcho I purchased, I can't wait to screw around with it.

Wow you're running the same set-up I have in my E-Revo except I run 18/62 instead, 20/54 would be mainly for high speed runs in the ERBE.

That Wraith hauls a** too !!!
What set-up does it have ?

The Wraith has a 13.5 Tekin Redline brushless with 3S, and an RC4WD AX2 trans, set in "high" gear mode for dune running, "low" gear is kinda useless in sand

What Dunes are those?
I took my Losi 8ight buggy to Glamis. Downside was that I was in the big stuff. Afraid I was going to blow my motor. I guess it's lucky my front end came apart before it could happen.
