Nitro VS. Electric Traxxas Slash!

2023-07-28に共有
Which is better? The Nitro or Electric version of the Traxxas Slash. On this episode of 10th Scale Garage, we take a look at two two wheel drives RC short course trucks and put them head to head. We compare their off-road performance, speed, and price. We test the top speed, durability and look under the hood at what makes them tick as well s a few upgrades.

    Electric = convenience Nitro = a hobby

    I would love to get a Nitro at some point, but just hesitant because I know nothing about them. Looks like a blast, and they sound freaking awesome. Was thinking maybe a Revo 3.3 would be pretty sick.
  • Great video I gotta give the track some more attention so we can really rip on them
  • Great video nice cars I still like battery cars always cool information

    Thanks for another entertaining vid! Nitro all the way if I had to choose 1 for ever. Can I suggest something pls, is that you consider editing the music to be a little lower volume than how they are usually on your vids. The difference in volume between when it's your voices and when the bgm comes on is large and might be less startling to the viewer if were better synced. Thanks for taking in the suggestion, and the music you pick is dope fwiw. 🙂

    Nice comparison! I always wanted to get a Slash, but I have nowhere to race around here, and monster trucks IMO are better for general bashing. Also my Rustler VXL stock out of the box goes 50mph on 3S so maybe you should've left the VXL in the Slash to give it a better chance hehe.

    I'm been thinking of getting a slash for Christmas, but been on the fence of ether nitro or battery, only thing i can think of is nitro is better cause I don't have to wait for battery's to charge and they have more power.

    Nitro all the way! The only electrics I own are my scaler trail trucks. This was the first video of yours that I’ve seen, and I loved it. It won’t be the last! Keep up the good work, and remember, if you aren’t breaking something, you aren’t doing it right!

    I am nitro for sure, but does Slash have reverse? Or is it only forward?

    Nitro is great, got me back in the hobby after i quit because 2wd buggy went mid motor and I just don't like it. Hard to beat the smell and sound. Traxxas nitros are a decent starting point but you don't learn as much as you would with say the kyosho mp10 rtr. I have both the nitro versions of the rustler and slash. I prefer the slash. The 3.3 feels more reliable. I also like that nitro feels like it gives power like a real car. Side note: you can prime the engine without having to dry crank it by pinching the exhaust line at the tank connection and popping the tank lid several times. I do it until i see fuel enter the line and then i do it 2 more times.

    Love both, but prefer challenges and realism of nitro!

    My nitro can’t drive straight ? I’m a newbie, what can it be? Thanks a lot, it’s an old one !

    excellent! took me three days of cranking on my nitro it finally roared to life in the house cus i just wanted to see how strong my battery starter was.i just kept her running. house smelled great for a week.wife not the happiest.
  • Nitro has the Go, the smell and it sounds cool. Go Go Nitro...BTW..Is that a scratch on Eathan' s car?

    my nitro slash ran for a day now i cant get it to start. the idle was set too high so it would roll when i started it. i adjusted it now it wont start at all.
  • So im getting the vibe of Nitro are for the process and appreciation of the work. Not for the people that arent mechanically inclined.i bought a bigfoot and then i decided to get a rustler and also got a entire upgrade kit to all metal. Im thinking about my step which is gettin way to far ahead since im still waiting for the rustler. But im already getting ahead of myself and wondering what I think is next. I was considering a k5 blazer high trail. Or the k10. Idk what do you fellas think? Live in illinois flat lands of hell.
