RE: slash build
4S in that guy is just going to be overkill IMO, but sometimes that is what the name of the game is... What kV is the 5.5 motor? What do you want to do with the truck? Just make it insanely fast or do any racing or ?

RE: slash build
you can only dye the chassis a darker color, if you use a brighter color, it won't work right. white can be any color, grey can be purple, dark red, blue, green, and some others i bet. black is stuck black.
sounds like a fun build, but are you sure that the 5.5 motor can handle 4s? because it goes at track speed on 2s, so stupid fast is at 3s.
