How fast does this slash go with the 3s lipo 11.1 V battery? That's without changing the pinion/spur.

I don't have a speed gun but mine goes pretty fast on a 3s 11.1v lipo on the stock pinion/spur. I would goes it is in the 30-45 mph range.

Its plenty fast its the torque you want. Thats why you want the lipos they hold even charge providing burst for jumps and passing.

I assume you have brushed 550 looking to upgrade to run lipos to bash. If that is the case I would not recommend wasting your money on this setup. You will wind burning this up in not time Finding a better a esc / motor combo will save you money and fraustration in long run. I personally have have mamba max + neu motor set in my merv. The power and torque is ridiculous on 3s and the temps do not get out of control.

It's so much faster with the 11.1v lipo battery that it'll blow the rear tires off

I have the availability of 3s on my TH for the days i just wanna go insanely fast. Most of the time i do run 2s because its enough speed. Also if u ever wont to put the esc in something else you'll have the option for 3s if it can handle it. Hope this makes since. I run 3s instead of 2s in my scx10 for the times i need just a little more brap to get over something i just cant crawl.

I have this battery and I use the Traxxas 2933 6amp lipo charger. Easy to use and charges battery in about 45 minutes.

I use this 3S lipo in a Slash 4X4, and how you run it dictates run time. In my case, running it hard virtually non-stop nets me about 20 minutes. First runs at more reasonable speeds (getting used to the truck/battery) averaged 30-35 minutes. Be prepared though if you've only used 2S lipos, as this 3S made my Slash 4X4 an animal!

I run mine off a 3S lipo (12v). It may have a voltage ranges it runs off of. I just don't have the manual in front of me right now.

This should work great in a slash. I run one of these combos in my traxxas rally. 11.1v or 3S is so fast.

I have mine in a 2wd sc10 and I have a 87 tooth spur and a 18 tooth pinon and it is almost to much. But I use it for racing so I'm not going for the max out of my motor.

It will go about 30-35. It's really fun and handles excellently. Should give you a 20+ minute run time with that battery, not sure of the name of connector but here is a picture of a battery with the connector you will need. http://www.redrc.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/LosiXcelorin7-45000.jpg

I'm running the stock receiver in my team associated SC10 with no issues. I'm also running a 87t spur gear with a 16t pinion gear. I suggest using a 2s lipo. Anything bigger and the truck gets out of control. I still am hitting over 50km. Perfect for dirt track racing. I hope that this helps. CHEERS!!!

It won't go 60mph on the standard motor and a 2s lipo. The best you'll get on the standard motor with a 2s is about 35 and a 3s will get you around 45. Both are very fast though. Go to the traxxas website and they will give you the breakdown of the batteries and what speeds you can obtain with each.

Best thing is to look at your manual or look it up online. If your motor isn't designed to handle 11.1 lipo then stay away from it.

This combo will run up to 4s, great combination! Not sure what you are running it in but Slash 2wd is a monster with this setup

Yo man for me it takes 2hrs to fully charge a 2c 7000mh Lipo pack. Want this car to last? Upgrade ur fRont suspension make it stronger. And buy better shocks bc these will pop out. Oh and the servo will break edventually get a metal gear servo. ThIs buggy with upgrades 520 $ in this car so far for me

i don't think the stock speed control can handle the lipo pack. Stock NiMh packs quite a punch in this truck and is plenty fast.

No. The motor and esc are both rated up to 3s, but not running together, I have tried it but it got hot Very Fast. You would need the Mamba Max Pro or Hobbywing wpsc8, etc. for a reliable 3s esc with 5700kv. I have this Castle combo in my Bandit, and 2s is plenty...my advice? Gear up and you will already be in the 50mph range 2s...I run 24/90 gears and it's stupid fast. Speed run, 26/76, it has to be 55mph with that gearing.
