I just replied a bunch of times.....oh well.
Well, Im shocked that these trucks can handle anything at all.
Im not gonna drive it in the sand cuz I know it gets everywhere...
but UNDER the water...
I was really happy to know that it could be submerged. I know I have to clean, dry it out and re-lube everything, but I know it works now...
It was literally, underneath the water and driving.
...
Hahahaha!
It was about 2 1/2 feet of water, so I should have gotten one....
it reminds me of R2D2 in episode 5, where he falls into the water....
hahaha
Whoah! I think it was from interference with the water, maybe? I mean....that esc is pretty high-tech. Especially since water is a conductor....maybe it just screwed up the transmission coming from...
I drove it a few times on the beach of the lake to just have some fun but I totally flipped it IN the lake and nothing happened!
I had no intention(sort of) of running it in the water, totally...
I know what you mean! Even just stock I thought it was very fast for its size.
I dont think ill have a need for anything faster....maybe someday. lol.
I cant wait to get another battery.
Well, what about a Duratrax Intellipeak Pulse Charger?
I already have that one and its lowest setting is 0.5.
Its rated for NiMH as well...
it should work....right?
I ran my slash through a lot of grass today, most of it was cut due to its really low ground clearance, but it sailed over most of it!
It was cool
Wow. The slash lived up to all the hype.
I think the 30 mph is fast enough on it....it had A LOT of power with one little battery.
And it lasted me a good 20 minutes going through dirt, sand areas,...
Well, I guess I was granny shiftin my mini slash....i had about a good 20 minutes of grass, dirt/barkdust, high speen runs, jumps...AND MUD!
Traxxas has lived up to the waterproofing!
I was...
I just got my slash, and it was a lot faster and cooler than I thought it would be!!!!
It already tore up some front yards! jk
I had mine since this morning!
IT IS faster than I thought it would be...
and A LOT smaller as well!
This trucks is TOTALLY amazing!
Mine should be arriving tomorrow morning!
Well, that depends on shipping...
Im sure a lot people will be posting pictures as their batteries are recharging from the first run....
thats what mine says too!
for my slash, anyways...
I cant wait!!!
I havnt been so excited for an rc car since the tmaxx...lol
Well, if anyone is interested in finding a place to bash around or something then send me a message.
I will be driving the mini slash.....
Semper Fi.....I really should have thought of that when I was over there! I think my gunny would have killed me...
I would totally invest in training a few well bred German Shepherds...
I cant believe the nerve of thieves!
Those dogs would have made sure they didnt have any more fingers....
Yeah, but that was just off of what the person said to me over the phone....
Yeah....but like I said, im taking the word from a traxxas rep, so I hope nobody holds me to that date! hahaha!:lol:
I just talked to a traxxas rep, they hope to send the trucks out by this friday to the distributors(aka tower hobbies, etc;) and whenever they decide to send out the trucks....
I know, I just called traxxas, this guy told me about another 10-14 days before the trucks are shipped from the distributors.
Well, I never really cared about having the truck, I just wanted it as...
Im REALLY sorry to hear that! Im sure you'll get something soon and be able to join us sooner than you think!
Keep your head up!
Shelby, the tower hobbies customer service rep told me they were getting them june 3rd( i called that day) but probably have to figure out all of those orders...
So, im hoping they should be sent...
sorry, i guess some of are pretty stoked about it...
i really cant wait to get it!
