Traxxas Rustler VXL FLM Aluminum. using 3800 tenergy 8 cell battery.
Hi again. Here I will let you show that the hexes are in good shape, the slipper is turned down almost completely and the slipper itself looks good. What can be the problem guys?

@kevkid55 change it to mod0.8 and go 16/54
if you are going to go nimh with that VXL, at least use 9 cells. it is not a great showing for the system that’s in that truck, especially with all that nice hardware. if i had that truck, i would get foam tires and go 3s LIPO (11.1v nominal,12.6v max, with a 30c minimum pack ( Turnigy nanotech, not the other garbage on the market) then i would get RPM arms, because you DO want soemthing cheap to flex or break. otherwise something more expensive will either bend or break.
nice i have a stampede vxl please subscribe
are they good tyres (are they talons)
@jakester1999imtheman definatly not
wow ur realy slow u shud get a way better and bigger battery and update ur cars videos after that
can u use a 9.6 volt battery in a rustler vxl if so what pinnon gear would i use
you need to change your shock setup, thats extremely stiff
what do you guys think would be a good gear set up for a rustler vxl for speed runs down a street but still keep the motor from getting too hot? i havent really been able to figure out what works good
how much weights this thing?? Because of all that alloy parts. My stock VXL weighs exact 1803g
@jakester1999imtheman nah
my slash can outrun that slow piece of junk
@TraxxasMiniErevoVXL im gonna do the same!! XD
@xXShadowRejectsXx he has stock gearing
i have the same battery however i didnt relize untill i got lipo that my charger said in small font 4-7 cells so it was only charging to the voltage of a 7 cell. i had 10.4V with my regular charger then when i used my lipo charger i told the charger it was 8 cells it went to 11.6V big difference make sure you getting the most out of your battery
how much did you spend on all the aluminum parts?
@TraxxasMiniErevoVXL idk about you.. .but i love the e-revo look!!
u like rotors?
it does 70 if you run a 3s 8000mah lipo and use different gearing. i have stock gearing and 3s 3000mah lipos and can do over 50mph.
00:43 no offenense but thats a speed run? my xl5 stock can do that! lmfao
@999benhonda vxl does 70 stock lmfao
If you go offroad with that thing, the battery will come loose.
@sfproductions97 rcbros sell em
instead of spending $100 on alum parts, you could have bought a couple of 3s lipos and a good lipo charger. then youd be doing over 55mph!
Where did you get the frame?
@samyadao, I only broke one and it was after 9 months .. but it was a PITA to find the problem
. A tita pin would def not break!!
top gear pins are weak they break to fast they should make them titanium and not hollow
haha kool
@68ludwig1, you are right. But I figured that out already since this movie was made last year
open up ur tranny and take out the shaft that ur spur gear sits on it the shaft with top fly gear on that shaft there r to pin holes one of the pins in the pin wholes are snapped im pretty shure
@CardNox yeah also the cause of mine was due to poor maintenance
@yellowcorba1, mine was the pin in the shafts that was holding the internal top gear.
I had this problem it was the pins and bad bearings.
see mine works it just makes this scratching noise and idk what it is!
@Rcstampedeking, yep. That’s the thing that broke. A common Rustler problem I know now
There is a pin on the inside of the tranny that snapped. the tires will still spin when you hold it up but with preasure it wont move
@SuperSnoozie, problem has been solved a few months back and this car is SOLD. It wasn’t the wheels.
try duning up the tires
with a nut
@xXShadowRejectsXx, no problem. If you can help I’m a happy man
@CardNox thanks alot bro you helped me out
@xXShadowRejectsXx, that doesn’t sound good. I believe they are the same diameter, but it’s been a while so don’t go blind on my word
. But for the money they can’t be beaten.
@CardNox oh sweet thanks bro! are they any smaller than the stock? my stock ones rub my aftermarket alum. arms and it eats them up bad :/ lol
@xXShadowRejectsXx, ups my bad. They just need one easy mod and that’s you need to drill the hole in the output yoke to 2.5mm. Search for Jato Driveshaft Conversion and you will find all the info you need.
@CardNox the drive shafts
lol and thanks bro! i need new tires bad lol
@xXShadowRejectsXx, how to fit what? These Mashers offer very good grip on and offroad, they are a bit bigger than normal 2.2” tires. This gives the car higher ground cleareance; good for bashing and getting over obstacles but bad for handling. You can also look at Badlands of Gladiators
@CardNox ohh may i ask how to fit them?!?! thanks bro and sorry for being retarded haha and do those tires run good on and off road?! haha i need new ones LOL
@xXShadowRejectsXx, those are an upgrade, they are the Jato drive shafts which are a lot stronger than those from the Rustler, pn #5550.
i bet its your jerry riggeds shafts :/ LOL!
@CardNox
haha i will try lol (:
@RCkiNg3872, next time write what you mean, I’m not a mind reader
. Kind regards from the ass hole.
