The usual consensus is either mip or maxx shafts.

Have a search for yourself.

Just use the MAXX Shafts search to see the exact part numbers. They are all you need. I rund my truck with a 45turn on 4S and have yet to break one. Then again I dont typically put the truck in much of a bind. When it gets bound up plastic parts break. That is just common sense.

For dingo wheelbase, use dingo labeled mips. For honcho wheelbase, use ax10 non-dig labeled mips.

Edit: go here and check out the xref table as well

I've run revo/maxx3.3 shafts hard, brushless 2s&3s... With nothing bad to speak of. There is a lil bit of fabbing required though compared to bolting up mips.

I did just blow (10 minutes ago) my 2 junkfac drive shaft when i tryed 6S in my Honcho. first i cracked the rear, then i rived with just FWD for a minute then that one craked as well...
I was quite surprised about that.... Guess i have to try MIPs shaft now. Or do you gyus have any suggesition about better driveshafts-? Sorry for my lack in english.
