8s Powered Traxxas Sledge - How fast can it go?

[@chalky_white]

No way! This is going to be good! The difference in going from 4S to 6S was crazy enough, I bet this is going to be wild. Also, thank you so much for all the steady content. We appreciate it brother. Hope you enjoy your Sunday 💯🤜🏻🤛🏽

[@JayTeeRC]

tks will try to keep it up

[@benwhitley1400]

Man I have to give you props on your consistent good content. I seriously listed all my rc stuff for sale and watching your content changed my mind and got me interested all over again. Good job on always keeping it interesting sir

[@JayTeeRC]

tks!!!

[@LifezEverything]

That thang look good sitting like it is. Looking good!!!

[@RoostedFilms]

Good stuff. I can't afford "all the models" but it's nice to see them pushed to the limits in different ways. It helps me narrow down the next model. Thanks

[@jhicks1774]

Nice run. You make me want to buy a Sledge!

[@shuster1921]

Your going to put an eye out with that thing!! 😆😂🤣

[@cedricjackson7521]

That is truly cool man miss playing with my r/c trucks

[@JPistols]

The sledge is moving. Nice vid sir. Totally love you pushing the RC to the limit. You put out a ton of great vids with great content. Thank you very much for all your time and effort you spend in effort to keep us entertained. Thanks man. Hope you have a good and very blessed rest of the day. 🤘🥸

[@abyss5350]

I was thinking about making my sledge faster but I decided it was fast enough in stock form for what it is especially after seeing this video I don’t think I’ll be trying for 100mph speed runs with my sledge as I think I will choose a rc car more suitable for that purpose. that is very impressive speed with your sledge. Mine has been a fun car to bash around and it’s very fast in stock form. Cool video thx for sharing

[@nuttysquirrel8816]

Back in the 80s, my brother had an rc truck from a hobby store. It was a 1/10th scale, rwd Mitsubishi Pajero by Tamiya. He had to assemble it; then buy the radio, battery and charger separately. It took the battery 12 hours to charge; and the truck ran for roughly 10 minutes. It had four speeds which were stop, slow, medium and fast. Speed was controlled be a big white ceramic resistor that would get really hot. The car in this video would literally run circles around that truck. 🤣😂😆

[@kenyanr1]

Your brother is a legend. Honor him

[@fugginrambo]

The radios were so bad back then too. When a car would go past, my RC10 Truck would dart in a random direction full throttle.

[@nuttysquirrel8816]

I am going for 80. I have a speedtek rc spool in mine. I hit 65 with kraton copperheads on it. Have belted street tires showing tomorrow. Once weather is clear I want to hit 80. You made it look easy so when I hit 65 only I was like dang. Hope tires make a difference.

0:90 the sound from the hart ahhaha

[@whitenoise2998]

Those Jetko Supersonics are legit tires, I've been running them for just over a month and they're quality pieces, they're also pretty lightweight as well👍👍

What size did you get, the 2.8 or 3.8

[@whitenoise2998]

@@jimmyspitler3151 I actually have both the 2.8 and 3.8 versions of the Supersonics. They've been great, really looking forward to the new 4.0 Black Phoenix's

[@okiedoak201]

Very nice...it's so smooth...but at 88mph is when the lightning and fire is supposed to come out after the Flux capacitor kicks in....darn it's fast...

[@whitsrcleftovers2707]

The roof slides sound the worst, but are definitely best case (as long as it's not into a curb lol).

[@chriswade3986]

Hey what wheels and tires are they ?

[@jeromeware2273]

What did you do to get yours to hit 90

[@pillyahn1278]

If you run with the body off, it won't turn over. The body acts as a parachute to lift the car. And the Willy bar must be equipped unconditionally. With the current output, it seems that 160km/h is possible.

[@nICe-hr4rs]

Great video bro!

[@alankowalski8781]

If you cracked the diff and filled it the diff should be fine and take it. I did the same with my Traxxas Maxx. Traxxas just doesn’t put any diff fluid in it from the factory. If it makes it easier, power hobby now makes a single 8s pack.

[@mfelectric5163]

Do you have the stock esc and motor?

[@therccelebrityspeedfresh5393]

I’m putting a 8s on the sledge soon. So thanks for sharing that. So the 25tooth pinion gear can fit but not 34/34 because it’s too small. Only Erevo 2.0vxl can fit on 34/34 dam the sledge is this close to be faster then a Erevo but it’s faster and handles better then a erevo

[@sebvall1719]

you should take off those mud guards, they would create massive drag.

[@johnvega7264]

[@Billy-ox8ie]

You can run a 26 pinion with a 46 spur that's the biggest you can get in there with out the reserve motor mount

[@LoudCloudsflow]

Wouldn't having smaller tires be better because it's less roating mass the motors have to move ? The bigger they are the more drag too it puts on the car

[@EZ-D-FIANT]

But the diameter is smaller so it will drive physically slower, theirs not enough weight difference in the wheels to prevent the motor from spinning at its max with bigger tyres so no, he's done it for the tread and anti ballooning....

[@Foochila]

mine broke the esc on 6s 😢

[@EZ-D-FIANT]

Perfect excuse to by a max8 g2 combo.....👍👌👍 (make sure you get the 2250 motor the 2500 is 4s only)!

[@angelogallegos1400]

I went 18/46 on my sledge and it stopped doing wheelies do you know why haha I like doing wheelies?

[@EZ-D-FIANT]

It's how gearing works, if you tune for top end you take torque from the lower end....

[@marc1981er]

Hey When you grade to the bigger sledgehammer weels and allowing ballooning you will make easy the 110 miles I did not really got it, im german Native, but i Think u changed a lot, Minimum the 6s Regler u had to remove i Think, i have the "standard" sledge in orange too. They did not had it in blue and was bit dissapointed, but, now im glad because, now i know, i have the right one :DD Know what i mean...

fast

[@romankozlovskiy7899]

Also 2WD cars are just better for top speed and handling when going high MPH same principles apply to real cars
