tim- if i recall right my last slash ran good on stock(18p/86s) with vxl on 2s. just enough power/speed .
mike- i got 25spline futaba saver and did trans/camber so slash handles great.plus got my hyper7 back and put .28 axial in(was in savage til blew trans). and of course i did'nt forget bout crawling--i got a scx10 frame set.

[m0d3ds1ash45]

thanks pat ill try that today after work and do some other stuff see u guys tomorrow

[whalebone]

Well blew up 2 motor's in the slash lastnight so don't know if i can run or not

[harleymon]

Tim,

I was thinking 16/86 and run for 2 minutes and watch motor temp - dont let it get any higher than 150 deg. Or, do the 3 second rule - if you can't hold on to motor for 3 seconds - its too hot. If its too hot, go down 1 or 2 teeth on pinion.

[harleymon]

Jay - what you running for pinion - for stock motor and ESC and spur (86t) don't go any higher than 20 tooth pinion. Don't run on 3 cell li-po. Don't run on 8 cell NiMh.

You running stock motor ??

I have a used stock motor for ya if you stop by. I'll make you a deal.

[clayton78]

Jay with the 540 motors use a 15/83 or if ya dont got that run a 14/86 that the best combos I've found

[m0d3ds1ash45]

thanks mike ill try that out to I may have to run to rogers after work and pick up a 14 or 15 tooth pinon just in case!!!!

[clayton78]

Well the track dried up great today! there was no water on it until about 15 mins ago. man were getting some major rain right now. So depending how much rain we get tonight ya might want to bring the crawlers also.

[whalebone]

im running a 14/86 motor was just old the other slash has a 12t with the same gear and melted the spur it got so hot

[clayton78]

Well guys it aint lookin to hot for running slashes tomorrow Theres alot of water on the track!
