1/16 la bro

Too small for proper offroad

Traxxas ma. But spare parts is one prob. But u really minat to offroad, at least 1/10 la bro. Anything smaller will suffer.

The first toolset, not so ngam, because its imperial, not metric. Our cars use metric bro. Second set seems ok

For that price, I'd say not worth.

If want, can consider this -> http://www.myrcstation.com/webshaper/store...roductItem=6684

The ones on the shock tower appears to be the same as the wheel nuts, @ ~68-69mm.

Anything else? LiPo battery? Charger? Power adapter? ESC? motor? wheel nuts? battery voltage monitor? connectors? wheel hex?

Impossible. Still got eBay and various online stores.

Researching offroad tires now

Wokeh. Slowly build up your funds then shopping

Any chances of bashing?

Good luck bro!

EMS shipping, <1 week can reach

Also, the Turnigy SCT improved over the Slash 4WD is quite a few ways.. Servo placement, had alu motor mount..

But if you do plan to get this Turnigy, you must set the slipper clutch to allow some slippage, do this ->

And also locktite all the screws..

its on preorder. confirm wan baru i order

If possible, I want to compile and possibly finalize bulk #4 by 8/8/2012.

TQ

For thosr worried about traxxas spare parts, i might stock up better aftermarket ones. but i need a minimum commitment of at least 5 people.

yes bro

you source your own electronics lo

Should be ok. But you will need to standby just in case there are any breakages.

Any car can and will break when you drive it like crazy.

For the 4WD Slash, you might need to standby these parts

- front bumper
- half-shaft
- rear hub carrier
- center driveshaft
- better shocks

There might be more, so i'm still researching

For 2WD, these are common breakages. (means they break easily)

- Caster block
- steering block
- rear hub carrier
- better shocks
- steering hub

Depends on yourself. For me, 2WD is more realistic and more of a challenge to drive. If you drive a 2WD, you must know how to control your throttle nicely. Pro for 4WD is that its easier to drive, and you can upgrade to much more powerful motors without much problems. Theres more traction with 4WD cars, and that makes it easier to put the excess power down. Cons is that 4WD has higher maintenance because of the front driveshaft, center shaft, center diff (if applicable) amongst others. Since I already have a 2WD, my next truck will be a 4WD. But thats my personal choice. Depends on yourself what you prefer.

If you have the budget, stock up on parts that breaks easily and often. This would keep your downtime to a minimum. No harm in keeping extra parts in case something breaks.
