Traxxas Slayer Pro 4X4: Powered 4WD Short Course Racing Truck (1/10 Scale), Red/Black

Ran 4 of the 5 break in tanks just as stated by the manufacturer. I monitored the temps and made sure it produced plenty of smoke for the break in. Halfway through the 5th tank the engine shut off to never restart again no matter what I tried. Discovered the engine had developed a massive air leak. There is no warranty on their engines so I spent another 350 to do a brushless conversion and ditch that garbage engine. With a 4s battery and a 2200k brushless, this thing now rips as it should. I did my research on the 3.3 engine and about half the people hate it and half love it. I personally think the 3.3 is an unreliable engine. Especially compared to my gt2 that still has the original engine and has about 10 gallons of 33% run through it.

This thing is a complicated machine. That being said, it’s a blast to run. Start up isn’t bad but do read the directions. It’s really well built and scary fast. Biggest problem you will have is finding a place big enough to open it up. Been running mine for two days and it is the real deal.
