    I remember getting my first Slash 2wd, the original brushed version with the super high up chassis. That was my first hobby grade RC and I’m still driving it to this day. Although I’m not sure it can still be called the same car seeing as how almost every single part has either been replaced or upgraded.

    For anyone reading this, just as an FYI. The audio system has an on-off button on the actual control box. You do not need to unplug it. Furthermore, it has volume up and down buttons on the box as well so you can adjust the volume to your liking. Lastly, the shocks that they were using are not stock. They appear to be blue anodized aluminum shocks from some aftermarket company.

    No the problem is the air getting under the body. I have a 2wd that I put a castle esc and motor in. It would almost try to take off like theirs too. After doing some digging on reddit everyone recommended taking a dremmel and making a ton of holes on the back side of the body. Fixed the problem completely. I even had the low cg chassis on it and it was doing that.

    Air is getting trapped under the body. Make a few holes using a dremmel in the body towards the back. This will allow the air to escape and help cool the esc a little bit too. I'm sure there are a lot of guys who've done this to their stadium truck bodies on KZread and can explain it better.

    I wish I had bought the VXL 2WD instead of the XL5 2WD. But at the time I didn't think I'd enjoy the hobby as much as I am. I upgraded the motor and ESC to a cheap Gool RC 3900 kv system which isn't anywhere near as powerful as the Velenion system, but still has good top speed and allot more punch then the Titan 12 turn. But if anyones deciding on buying the XL5 or VXL Traxxas anything just get the VXL. You get adjustable tie rods, full ball bearings and a better radio system. This is all for about $130 more then a XL5 equivalent. The cost of upgrading an XL5 to VXL Spec just isn't worth it in the long run in my opinion. You get such a great deal and actually end up saving hundreds by purchasing the VXL model.
