1/16 VS 1/10 Scale Traxxas Slash - Which One Should You Buy?

If you’re looking to buy a traxxas slash but you don’t know if you should a 1/16 or 1/10 scale, this video is for you!
In this video I go over some of the pros and cons of each of these trucks and hopefully give you enough information to make a decision!

NOTE: The Traxxas 4x4 with brushed electronics has been discontinued and replaced with a cheaper brushless version. I unfortunately did not know about this until after filming this video.

Perfect video of the differences,pros and cons of use and ownership of these 2 popular trucks!!! I'm here because I've been watching a weird set of videos called Wheelie Yellow where somebody has made a postal Van/mini RV on the 1/16th Slash platform they're actually really entertaining!!!

[@JustGrant25]

Thanks! That sounds kinda sick I gotta check that out!

@@JustGrant25 You'll like it when you see the overweight characteristics of the body that he basically made out of beer cans duct tape and scrap wood (and I think the windows are made out of smartphone screen protectors) you'll laugh your ass off!!!! 😄😁😅😂🤣🚐💨

@@JustGrant25 My saying about it is best described by;"..... a postal truck doing trophy truck things....." LOL!

[@JustGrant25]

Hahah 😂 I like that!

[@sergioh2015]

I just put the brushless system into the mini, and its super responsive and zippy now, only have the 2s batteries so i cant wait to get the 3s into it.

[@JustGrant25]

Dude that’s sick! Gotta be so much fun to drive such a small car so fast!!!

[@sergioh2015]

@JustGrant25 took it racing today, luckily the hobby shop near me holds small races on Saturdays, and man was it fun. It was all 1/10 slashes too. Was a hit everybody was impressed lol

[@JustGrant25]

@sergioh2015 haha that’s so sick!!! I can just imagine a little tiny slash zipping around all the big trucks!

[@TheGoodestBrandon]

Super comprehensive video with great info on both trucks. Thanks for that! Checking the playlists out too

[@JustGrant25]

Thanks man! So glad it was helpful!

[@gerardogonzales3766]

I just got my first RC today it’s a Losi 1/16 truck❤

[@JustGrant25]

Duuude that’s sick!!!! I bet you’ll love it!

[@Andrewjames116]

The 1 /16 Are pretty fun I use to to have a 1/16 losi late model and spirit car

[@JustGrant25]

That’s awesome losi makes some great cars! The 1/16s are just the perfect size too!

[@coyotex850]

i was originally lookin at a 10th scale because it seemed like a good size for me until i looked up the actual dimensions....videos don't do these things justice they're A LOT bigger than i expected

[@JustGrant25]

Yeah I even own one and sometimes after I don’t drive it for a while I’m surprised with how massive it is is 🤣

[@bobbylefebvre6298]

Cool video nice information

[@JustGrant25]

Thanks!!

[@alwaysrc5352]

Nice vid! I luv the slash

[@JustGrant25]

Thanks! I love it too!

[@RandomPerson-ob1hk]

Now what about Mini slash vs Arrma Mojave

[@JustGrant25]

That’s a good idea I just need a Mojave 😆

[@RandomPerson-ob1hk]

@@JustGrant25 I meant to say grom, still don't know the terminology of all these things

[@bobbylefebvre6298]

I like the 1.16 truck they are fun to drive

[@JustGrant25]

Yeah it’s definitely a blast to drive!

[@SnarkyRC]

How often do you maintain your diffs? On the Slash 4x4 it should be done regularly.

[@JustGrant25]

I just do it when I notice they’re not as tight as I’d like I have some 50k fluid I use every now and then the main problem I’ve had with them is the spur or sun gear on the outside stripping on the pinion that connects to the drive shaft I like to keep my slipper clutch pretty tight so it’s entirely my fault but I like driving better that way lol

[@Kacper-wi8uk]

Thanks for the video I’m thinking abt the slash 2wd or slash mini 4x4

[@JustGrant25]

No problem! I’m sure you’ll love whichever one you get!

[@Kacper-wi8uk]

which would u pick from these 2?. thank u so much for repsonding@@JustGrant25

[@JustGrant25]

@@Kacper-wi8uk it really depends on where you’re planning on driving kinda like I said in the video if you have smaller places to drive like even indoors then I’d go with the mini but if you’ve got more space I’d probably go for the 1/10 2wd. Hope this helps!

[@Kacper-wi8uk]

yea i got alot space so i think too 2wd 1/10 is better thank u so much!@@JustGrant25

[@JustGrant25]

Awesome I’m so glad I could help! Thanks for asking I hope you love it!!!!

[@hawkesbay2024]

is it worth buying the 1/16? Because i’m looking to buy the 1/16 i want to know the performance

[@JustGrant25]

It’s certainly not the fastest with stock electronics and it can’t handle a ton of terrain but you can always make it faster if your willing to spend the money although you can’t really change the ground clearance unless you converted it to a mini e revo because they use the same chassis but either way it would be quite expensive. Still a super fun truck at least in my opinion if you don’t mind it being a little slow. Hope this helps!

[@davidashkarian337]

How fast does the 1/16 go?

[@JustGrant25]

I don’t know exactly but I believe it’s around 15 - 20 mph

[@davidashkarian337]

@@JustGrant25 Its hard for me to decide lol i think i might go 1/10 though. Thanks for the info.

[@Mike_Greene]

That has to be 1/18 there's no space there

[@JustGrant25]

The mini slash? It’s 1/16 at least as advertised I don’t know the exact dimensions that determine the scale though

[@christopherlastname7638]

Its 1/18 the 1/10th is more like 1/8th not 1/10th
