My SandRail

[SlowKrawl]

I got bored of the stock slash, so I chopped it up and made a sandrail out of it. It runs a vxl system on 3s lipo and scoots along pretty good. Based on what a brushless slash does, I would say this thing runs between 35-40mph. I placed the battery over the rear tires a little more than a stock slash so it hooks pretty hard now, possibly a bit too hard? Also between the weight of the chassis and battery placement it gets so much traction that the stock driveshafts only last about 5 minutes then explode. CVD's for it are in the mail. The chassis does weigh a bit more than stock(by my very accurate "hand scale") so it could use stiffer springs but that's a minor detail. One problem with it is that because it goes pretty good, when it whips out it usually tweaks the chassis. Fortunatly, it's brakeline and meant to bend so I just bend it back. With the paddles in the sand it is FUN.










Hope you enjoy,

Sand is the worst enemy in any kind of Offroad RC electrics or gas...lol

Haha, I had to switch to 32P gears, the stock 48P would get sand in them and then they were done.

MM, right now I am not comfortable with my own level of quality to build chassis for someone else, however down the road I may consider it. Going to do a few projects for myself first.
