![]() ![]() If you do end up getting a Slash 4x4, the Ultimate edition is a great deal for what comes in the box. ![]() I’m sure whatever you buy will put a smile on your face. That’s the lesson I learned after buying one. I still don’t think I would buy it over a Rustler, though. If I was limiting myself to just one or two RCs, the Slash would look more attractive to me. I have multiple RCs that are designed for varying uses. You shouldn’t have to modify one particular model if you want it to perform they ways others already do. My opinion is that there are other RCs that come out of the box with those design changes in mind. Bigger tires can be put on for off-roading. The front end suspension can be modified to help keep the nose down. ![]() The shell can be cut to allow air to pass through it more effectively. Most/all of its drawbacks can be corrected through aftermarket modifications. There are others that absolutely love the Slash. This only represents my experiences, and my opinion. It’s durable, fast, and looks pretty damn good. I share my opinion about the Slash 4x4 on here often. With the low tire mass, it’s more difficult to correct if you go nose up mid air. This parachute effect can also effect how well it jump. At low speed driving this isn’t an issue, but at high speed, the air causes the body to “parachute”, which lifts the front of the truck, and will flip the RC if you aren’t able to correct it in time. This is somewhat due low amount of clearance the chassis had, but mostly because the relatively small tire that comes stock on the truck.Īnother issue with the Slash is that it’s body tends to trap air underneath it. But it struggled where I ran it the most- grass, and other uneven/rough surfaces. It stayed planted and could hold a line very well. Yes the Rustler is on a LCG chassis, but you can get the same on the Slash. The Slash at its core was designed to be a racer in the SCT class. Out of the box the Rustler did everything I thought a “bashing” RC should do - flips, wheelies, crushing off-road terrain. I rarely used it, as it didn’t really compete with the other 4x4 RCs I already owned. The Slash 4x4 ended up not really being my style of RC. Not much later I ended up getting a Slash Ultimate.
