Traxxas Sledge Servo Upgrade (The Basherqueen Carbon Fibre Shock Towers)

First rip out with the Sledge since I fixed it. Running Traxxas Orange arms, BasherQueen Shock towers, and OMG 40kg servo.

My wife also tells me 4 inches are ok 😂😂. Anyway, the sledge is really growing on me. Love the upgrades and the looks of it.

[@JasonPerrinRCVlogs]

It's surprising me with its durability. Traxxas nailed that.

[@Basherqueen]

Awesome that you have so much fun with the rig and the mods 👍👍👍 No further comment on the 4 inches from my side 🤣🤣🤣

[@JasonPerrinRCVlogs]

Yes, I am really enjoying it. Getting your rear tower on is a must IMO. That rear tower has so much connecting and going through it that the stock 6061 isn't cutting it. Not sure if you watched right to the end, but we need a carbon piece for the wing.

[@jamiee1578]

I second the CF wing washer! Waiting on my CF towers!

[@conradedgewood]

I think the Sledge runs 6 volts to the servo? And the servo you put in says it needs 7.4 volts minimum. How do these work together?

[@TrigunV4S]

Looks like he has a castle setup his esc can probably do 6 or 7.4 🤔

[@Justhavingoneofthosedays]

Great camera work !

[@jacobhenson3952]

I don't see how this thing didn't break on like every jump. That was a bad landing almost every time. I do the same thing with mine and it takes it. I also put the Basherqueen shock towers on mine. They look really good but this truck is honestly really tough and a lot of fun. I did make the center diff thicker and helped the front tires a lot.

[@atnotthiolnoy1]

A lot of landings were good too. But that's the point of the upgraded arms. They flex a lot without breaking.

[@JasonPerrinRCVlogs]

@@atnotthiolnoy1 I don't think these ares are updated though. They are not "HD Ones" like in the past. These are just different colours.

[@brettskinner5824]

nice backflips would have enjoyed you just sending it. Glad your enjoying it.

[@GarageLifeRC]

Some big lawn darts in there and it did great

[@matthewbennett9628]

I did want to upgrade my servo but am new to modifying rc cars. Can you tell me where you purchased your servo and extension wiring harness you talked about in the video?

[@OshKoshWorldwide]

When upgrading the steering servo, did u reset/configure it thru the Bluetooth link module?

[@GreatLakesRC]

Nice video! Loved the double 🚀 Your wife says 4” is enough 😂😂😂

[@JasonPerrinRCVlogs]

Both Liam and I were really excited with the doubles. Defiantly need to work on those though.

[@RCPropaganda]

I get how you like it. It has such a good feel. Once the m2c parts come mainly the motor mount it is going to be a really good truck.

[@theforerunners5171]

Bars&tone RC just uploaded a video with a prototype motor mount for the Sledge. Looks awesome!

[@RCPropaganda]

@@theforerunners5171 yes i have watched.

[@RC_Jaylow83]

hello what size and kind of 6s battery are you using for your sledge

[@pjayl0can0]

Is that a factory tires or an up grade sir? And what brand? Thanks

[@islandrc-duke1972]

nice upgrades,cool rc

[@ajaykumark107]

I hear some grinding sound when you run. Is your esc or motor okay?

[@WildBoyRC]

Man that thing is pretty tough so many bad landings and she seemed to hold up not to bad ! Can’t wait for mine in a few days !

[@masonprice6784]

i liked ans subbed as soon as you made the 4 inches joke

[@JasonPerrinRCVlogs]

I’m pretty childish 😜

[@darrellwright3105]

That thing took a thrashing! I'm impressed! The sledge actually turned into my favorite 6s basher. I've always loved my arrmas but I have to be honest with myself and this out performs them easily honestly. Every time I have bad landing I feel like I just broke something..but nope, it still goes. Arrmas are great but don't match the durability overall. Great video 👍

[@thomasmckinley1172]

Love the color scheme. My high school colors were orange and blue. Btw, who is your videographer? When I have people filming me and my vehicles, they can’t seem to stay with the vehicle. Any tips on that?

[@chrisachberger2001]

Dude, why do you land the truck on the one spot that is flat and hard? Land your jumps on a downward slope if possible. Other than that: Did you Know Basher Queen is a Kraut like me? Do you still own the SSTe? Get that one out running pretty please ;-)

[@705on8]

Impressive!! Dammit I’m gonna have buy one thanks Jason!

[@Bikebros27]

Those are some nasty landings. Least I know I can be a little braver with mine now😂. Am looking to change the servo as well

[@klappars]

Is that the full turning circle of the Sledge? It doesn’t seem very tight?

[@nopeak2000]

Wow that is the exact same servo I went with hahaha. First one lasted 2 days and instead of getting the same piece of shit the hobby store gave me the omg 40K for free and kept my warranty. Both my shock towers are bent so that is next on the list. Really want the basher queen ones. Where did you get them? Not sure if you say in the video or not but this is prior watching haha.

@@nopeak2000 lol no problem. All 3 of my rigs have the basherqueen treatment. Absolutely no complaints about anything

@@sir_puffs_alott_rc That is fantastic to hear that I didn't waste my money on garbage. Tank you once again.
