There is an opening in the chassis where the driveshaft exits.Rocks and dust can get in there and damage your driveshaft.In some cases,they can destroy your slipper as well.

Pic 3 reminds me of the freedom park wall falling on a car yday :D
I like pic 12. Did you take these pics and drive yourself or did you finally find a cameraman? :D

Divyam

Thanks Guys! :)
Most of the pics were taken by me while I was driving.. Like the little crawling pics..

For other pics, I got my bro to drive for sometime, while I took pics..
I even got the car a little wet.. But, no probs! :D

Hey welcome! The first RC car i drove is your slash :D The only thing better than 1 slash is 2 slash :D You guys should meet up! :)

Divyam

Well, the 1st PROPER breakage - A pinion gear!
After jumping it 4-5ft in the air MANY MANY times, and sometimes landing with the throttle on, finally managed to break (I wouldn't even call it stripped) the pinion. No problem, as the Slash comes with another pinion, the "speed pinion", which is essentially just a few teeth more..

Will put it on as soon as I get some loctite :)

Also, coming soon, a LiFePO4! :D

Be careful with the speed pinion. Its 5 teeth more than the stock. I would be weary of using it. I'd suggest you wait for a 14T pinion and use that one. Had I had my motor, I'd have given you mine.....

So should I use the "speed pinion" with a 3s LiFe?
I know using it with the stock NiMH is fine.. What about the LiFe?

Good to see people going for Lifep04 pack,i am having a blast with a 5s battery on my 1/8 scale ST-1 truggy.

Make sure you do atleast 20 charge/discharge cycles to no less then 3.26v/cell for the break in or i can guarantee you that they will puff.
