RE: RC Truck Recommendations 3-4 year old

RE: Turnigy vs Venom Chargers/Batteries

Thanks for all the info. I think I am going to go with some lipos and a charger from hobbypartz. Looks like a good deal overall.

RE: How bashable are Slash 4x4's?

As a recent Slash 4x4 owner, I must say I am very impressed. I do not trash my trucks but we have jumped them, flipped, cart wheeled, run into, bounced off, and whatever else you can think of doing...

Slash 4x4 Sway Bar, Do I need it?

Do I need a sway bar set for my Slash 4x4? Will it help when my kids drive it? Or can I just lower the truck and put spacers in the shocks to help out initially?

RE: Honest Slash 4x4 Run Time?

That is what I thought. I am staying away from lipos for now because of my younger kids.

So, is it worth spending more money on higher mah batteries or just buy more batteries overall?

RE: Slash 4x4 Do I need a fan or fans?

I have a temp gauge that I will use once I get my slash next week and get a chance to run it.

What temps should I expect from a brushless motor? I have never run electric before.
