ya,i upgraded it to bl,stock was brushed,
2wd is a bit difficult to steer compared to 4wd, also 4wd has better climbing power as traction is provided by 4wheels instead of two.
also 4wd comes with a bl system(velinion i think!) which i better than the brushed titan 550 motor

2WD always ends up doing donuts, if you pump the throttle at first.. You have to gradually finger the throttle... IMO, 4WD is a much better option..

2wd use inefficient motor as well....(in most cases)
4wd mostly have brushless thus powerful(except a few like sparrowhawk xt)

Yes, that's because if you upgrade to brushless, it becomes quite useless, except for going straight up and down the road...

Well,he means to say it becomes like a rustler.2wd and bl do not seem to be a good combo.So,you can drag race with it.Do weight reduction,if you can,add a stronger motor and drag race it.

^^ What iamahuman said.. Also, you always end up "burning out" and losing control, so its hardly any good for track racing, unless you have really good throttle control...

Became an rc addict few months ago,convinced my dad to get me the slash 4x4,just don't know when.I am in the tenth standard.Still,I'll try to get it as early as I can.Dad said the longest time would be the end of my exams.I will try to convince him to get it earlier.On the brighter side,if I buy it next year,Traxxas might make it better.(Read that handling i an issue)

No way man.Electrics are way faster.Well,I don't want to start another argument like on other forums.And nitro requires more setup.Electric is more like plug and play.When bashing,nitro bugs neighbours.

Nai yaar, low end electrics are noway faster than nitros
however electrics priced above 40 000 rupees like summit, e-revoBL, savage flux, are definitely fast and powerful but not the low end electrics

And i dont think there would be anyone trying to do a speedrun in neighbourhood, go to some field or track,
i personnaly have 3 electrics, 1 petrol and 2 nitros, n i love the nitros the most

once you get your engine properly tuned and broken in your nitros will also behave like fuel up and play. do requires a little maintainence but pays for it
also electrics like even a savage flux are more plastic and nitros like even the tomahawk bx are more metal made
