Something many have figured out - it's cheaper to build a narrow-bodied no-prep car from a Bandit, than it is to build from a Slash. With the Slash-based build, there are quite a few Bandit parts needed...but, with the Bandit-based build, for the most part, all you need is the Slash LCG Conversion Kit, and a few Slash front end parts. EDIT:. I commented about the Bandit-based vs Slash-based build before I watched the entire video, only to discover you end up mentioning what I had also said. Also, you'll be hard-pressed to find many people using that Pro-Line wheelie bar. Having a single ground-contact point could turn out to be more problematic then it's worth.

@@jyax0647 But more enjoyable...a LOT MORE enjoyable...actually BUILDING your own car. Sure, you can let the factory build it for you...but, until you build your own RCs, you'll never understand that building them is half the fun. Even in getting an X-MAXX, instead of buying the RTR, I bought a roller from an RC chop shop, and am building it how I want it. Out of all my land vehicles, the ONLY one that was an RTR was my first Rustler 4x4...ALL others were kits, rollers, and, in the case of my two Class 3 comp crawlers, built entirely from individually purchased parts - now THAT'S how to truly do RC. Don't be lazy...build something crazy.

Picked up a new bandit vxl slider for $70 from a chop shop. Lcg slash chassis is $35 locally. Wheels and tires are $80. A cheap 5.5 brushless system was $75. Body was $50. Made my own wheelie bar for $10. Used a gt3c that I already had for a radio, just needed a $16 receiver. Total cost was $336. Runs a consistent 2.76, is solid and straight down the track, and was 100% built on a budget. So it can be done cheap, if you source your parts in different ways.

I converted my rustler to a traxxas drag. It's a multifarious mess of parts from the slash to the bandit but I pretty much settled on the lcg chassis with hardend plastic bandit arms on back and aluminum front slash arms. I'm also running the shorter front shock all around with the big bore aluminum shocks up front and the stock shocks that came with the rustler. As for the transmission.... I have 3 I swap in and out. I have the pro line 32 pitch which is alright but I like my hot racing all aluminum transmission and I also have a Robinson racing all metal 32 pitch spur gear which is my favorite spur gear. I run 1s and 3s with the gear ratio low to keep Temps down and have longer run times for the bash/speed runs. As for the wheelie bar I also have a few to choose from. I have the pro line on you have as well as the hot racing one which I don't like the ascetic to much. Not pleasing to the eye but the one I love the most is my dr10 carbon fiber wheelie bar custom fitted to fit any traxxas motor protector don't know what they call it. The only price I want to replace is the 30° bulkhead with the 0° one the slash drag comes with. Very squirrly if toe and camber are at 0°.... and I have both same bodies for my traxxas drag build pearl white nova and a crimson rosewood c10. Oh an I'm running pro line Hoosier all around sitting on j concepts rims. Yea love it lol

This is just my opinion or thoughts. If you're going to be competitive a custom chassis, esc,motor and a few other things i would think you would be money ahead building one but if it's just one to run on the street and mess around with the rtr would be a good idea and upgrade as you go. Kinda like racing our rc10s and jrx2s back in the 90's by the time you upgraded all the aftermarket stuff there wasn't much left for stock parts.

My thoughts on buy a kit or build it from parts depends on budget and your end goals and vision for the build. Personally I’d still start my build with just a pile of choice aftermarket parts if I were to go with a slash based drag car(only because I have a bunch of parts 😂) but I have no delusions of my way being cheaper than what you can just buy from Traxxas currently especially starting from scratch however I’ve been eyeing the kit version of the DR10 so 🤷‍♂️😂 A good example of better off starting from parts, I recently finished a Tamiya M07 based M-chassis build based around an aftermarket CF chassis conversion kit and just purchasing the original Tamiya parts needed (or the Tamiya/Aftermarket hop-up version of those parts) for the original car along with the conversion chassis kit. My build total is still more than if I just bought the tricked out factory version of the car and called it a day but that’s not what I wanted and I’d still end up buying that CF chassis conversion kit (which costs about the same price as the Tricked out version of the Tamiya Kit itself) add to that a few hop-ups that didn’t come in that original and the fact that I’d be tossing 90% of that Tamiya kit in the bin so basically buying the original kit becomes a waste of money and there’s my savings which is about $200. neither version came with wheels, Tires or a Body FYI

Need help please. I am just starting in the 2s No Prep scene. I purchased a traxxas drag slash recently but am trying to upgrade it. On 3s, the motor is amazing, 2s, it seems really slow compared to what I've seen. I bought a Spektrum Firma 100A Brushless Smart ESC / 6500Kv Sensorless Motor Combo: No-Prep, SPMXSEMC13 to replace the stock motor but I think I made a mistake and might return it. what is the best affordable motor (not more than $200) you would recommend?

Are the arms the same on 2wd and drag slash? Or are they bandit arms?

I want to do a custom build personal drag car, with a front engine, solid rear axle, basically make a true scale drag car.

All u have to change on the front is the pins that hold the wheels... I built one exactly the same : )

So what I’ll say is my friend gave me his old 4s maxx system. I put that system in my stock 2wd slash stock trans played with the gearing and I guarantee it will take the new drag slash any day of the week.

The losi drag s22 has everything exept the shocks for less.... when we say its overpriced we mean that iin this meta game the competition offers more than what the drag slash can

The Losi doesn’t have the trans brake, which is a neat feature. I don’t know if it make you more competitive.

@@zaccarrollart3493 I see no use for the trans brake. It would almost be better to pull the trigger because of how much of a pain launching the car can be. Instant power really fast, in my experience, usually makes you spin out.

@@jyax0647 I can see that. Does this one have the gyro? I’m just wondering if the tech is where some of the cost is, I’m new to this and looking to get one just weighing options.

@@zaccarrollart3493 Yes, it has a gyro. But that’s banned from competition use. I believe both the Team Associated DR10 and Losi 22S drag car have gyros at a WAY lower price than what traxxas is offering. Plus, the DR10 and 22S perform much better than a Slash.
