- It’s been one of those weeks, actually a couple of weeks! Every project and video we’ve tried to work on came to a screeching halt because of something. But we managed to put something very cool together and something we think a lot of people will appreciate. We got a few of the new Pro-Line Tough Color bodies in and among the bunch was the Heatwave Ford F-100 pre-cut body for the Slash and other 1/10 short course trucks. In the RC Driver shop, there is a bin of saved Traxxas parts and there was enough in the bin to build a Slash 4x4 to put under this new Truck body. If you hate painting than the Tough Color bodies are probably the right ones for you. The body in this video is a licensed body and comes with the decals to replicate the Heatwave scheme. Greg threw together the Slash 4x4, mounted up the F-100 body and takes it out for a drive on the BMX track so you can see it perform.

This body fits perfect on my Proline Pro2 SC. Just perfect.
Truck looks and runs great!!
🤘🏼🤘🏼
Cool! Just bought this body to match with my UDR Heatwave as well!!!
Love your videos mate I have learnt so much about Rc watching you Keep up the videos 👍🏼
Great looking build Greg👍👍 Love how the truck sails on those jumps!
Looks great!
I like it too! Nice jumping too.
Just got this for my Arrma senton and it looks like the real thing! 💯
Love the body shell
Badass body. I hope they make an F-100 body for crawlers too
Man, that body looks just so awesome. 👍
Agreed!! 😎
You can Always do great projects with a slash.
Wow thanks for sharing this great information. I gotta get a body by proline.✌️
That's a nice RC you built there .
keep up the good videos
I have a real Ford f100 I love it.
You got a name for the build. Murder Hornet.
I just got one of these bodies at my local hobby shop they are awesome
I know right!! The first crash hurt lol
yeah i liked my rustler but never used my slash so i made the slash into a long chassis rustler. Its da bomb.
On my slash’s I adjust body mounts with thin slabs of foam under the stock mount, between the shock towers and and posts, just use longer screws
Great tip!
Awesome body I just wish proline would cut all their decals...most other companies are cutting them nowadays. Thanks for the video Greg
I don't mind painting but i only use a spray can and have only painted one body. So to soon to tell. But as my channel grows i hope to get more rc's and customize them more and more, So this body might come in handy!! Love the content man, Appreciate all the hard work you put into these videos!
I have those body posts on my tmaxx! One of the best upgrades in my opinion!! No more losing body clips! I absolutely recommend those pro-line body posts
Did you cut the proline body mounts so they didn’t interfere with the suspension? Thanks great videos!
Nice driving..I run my sct on Astro turf track..
Nice! Turf is a blast!
Does this fit the axial yeti score?
What a beautifull body!!!. I wonder will it fit my Losi strike?
Nice build Greg what esc and motor combo do you have?
What would be the best shocks to put on a emaxx
Will it fit a Slayer pro if you cut a hole for the engine.
Is it easy to cut out holes for nitro ez start?
Hello from Germany.
Nice video.
Can you tell me what size tires you put on that car?
Thanks for answering.
I like it I need a new body for my slash and not much of a painter
Great video as ever. Me and my son have been following your channel for a long time. We recently started our own channel called Bradypat RC. Thanks for the inspiration, we've learnt a lot from you 👍👊
Awesome to hear! Have a great time with your channel!!
How to do attach the wings on the side the reason I ask is they gave you two bolts
What Paint are you using? My bodies fall apart before the paint rubbs off.
That 1410 3800kv motor got to be a bit toasty in that thing, It had heat issues on my 2wd slash geared 16/90 on 80F days. I ended up going back to the VXL setup, it was a bit cooler.
Any issues with the center diff, just put one in my Traxxas Slash 4x4 and it melted in 10 mins on just a 2s battery, how do you run one without melting it?
You said 3s didn't you? That 3800 castle didn't overheat on ya?
I seen they make one for the udr too, I'm wondering if it would work on my Mojave? Anyone know by chance?
Will it fit on a senton 3s?
One of the best RC drivers I've seen online! lol. But seriously, you got awesome bashing skills sir!
Thanks! That was me just blasting around having fun to see what and how the body would handle. 👍
RC Adventures have you ever seen a professional buggy race video? If you think this guy is good, that will blow your mind
@@martin3288 I need to now! haha. Yea i bet that is intense.
@@rcdriver You're a regular person who loves RC just like us. Makes it more relatable to when we would get any of the trucks in your videos and actually take them out for a spin! Awesome content man. Keep it up! I got a Mojave after watching your take on it and how much fun you had.
Awesome vid that body looks really cool fair play. Would that fit a Arrma senton truck.
Will the body work on a traxxas slayer pro 4x4?
Can you use this body with the clipless b2ls system
What tires/wheels you running?
Rpm bumper sticks out farther, good option for that problem
Does this fit to a HPI Blitz?
Does it work on arrma senton 6s blx
Looks like they have a 67 coming awesome body I have a 68 full scale lol. I see a 67 in my future great video!
I have a question . I have a Traxxas rustler with a Titan 12 turn motor and the Traxxas xl-5 . It came with a battery ( Traxxas nimh power cell 3000 mha ) the battery is getting insanely hot during charging . I let it cool before use and after use it's again insanely hot and melting the plastic shrink wrap . Is this normal ?
I just bought this. I'm doing away with the heatwave livery and using a rockstar livery I found online!
Bought two trucks finally ready to rebuild them do you have any recommendations on where I can find a full screw set for t-maxx 3.3 and an s-maxx as well as were I may be able to buy manuals with part numbers been a few years since I've been in the hoppy so I'm trying to relearn everything and any thoughts on fast eddy bearings thank you
Also should mention both trucks are nitros
🙄 must be nice to have enough spare parts to build a Slash from 😂 nice video I need to run my monster Slash way more often
I’m an RC hoarder. It was years and years and years of collecting parts. 😁
I wish they had more body options for the Baja Rey
What's the best way to drill holes in a prepainted rc body for body posts?
Protoform has a body mounting magnet set to help. Or the cheap route is to put small dots of oil on top of the body posts and carefully lower the body down onto the mounts while aligning it by eye.
RCDriver_Online ok thanks
New videos coming soon!!?
Bring the drag slash project back with some aero mods to keep it on the ground.
Look on the bench in the background in the beginning... teaser😉
You should do an e revo 2.0 upgrade project
Quick question.. where was the esc? 😂
Hi keep things up like this and 1st comment!
Amazing body! BTW, what's the name of the tool used to drill the holes??
Reamer. Must have tool if you ever plan on swapping bodies.
@@rcdriver thanks a lot, drill bits wouldn't do the job just right
body has less wind resistance with it pulled over front bumper.
You need to go back to that track with a helicopter and sort those hornets out with it :) Really cool video and I like the body and its cool you have access to the bmx track, they will not allow that were I live
Those things were nasty lol! I’m respectful of the track since I used to help maintain it and never drive when there are riders so I never run into any issues. Bummer you can’t use your local track.
And thats the problem as some would just bash it up and not repair it.. I do have an RC racing club in town so I need to join that when I can
400 like!!!
😎
Hi. Can I fit that body on a team A short course? Thanks.
I was hoping you would stir up the hornet nest and get video of it.
I wanted to grab some closeups with the GoPro on the boom pole, but those things were nasty and chased me lol
What are the tire specs please
Still a short course truck. Cant call it a trophy truck without a solid rear axle
nice video! Murder Hornets, here already? stay away stay away lol
There were a ton of massive hornet-like bugs burrowing into the jumps on the far side of the track! They were not happy when I drove the truck there. Guess that’s just part if 2020 🤣
@@rcdriver i know those murder hornets have invaded Washington State. Not sure where youre at, but yea better to stay away from any Hornets imo lol. Those murder hornets attack in packs
I wish they made a body like the hudson hornet to build some of the Disney cars to rc cars
What the hell is a murder Hornet hahaha sounds horrible.
It was a crazy sight. And they chased me. After being stung by two bees earlier this week, I wasn’t going in for any closeup shots lol!
I really dont like that bumper problem... You already got it super low, it shouldnt do that...
Would this look weird ones. Crawler.
Think there's a number you can call if you spot a nest of murder hornets
Not sure if exactly what they were but they were massive and hornet-like. The track had a BMX race the night before. I’m guessing they are aware of it.
RCDriver_Online better safe than sorry.
only want the decals, and not the body
Too bad it's a Ford, make a Chevy.
WOULD THAT BODIE FIT THE 2xwd drive FORD RAPTOR SLASH. OR DO YOU NO AND DIRECT FIT BODIES FOR IT
What BODIE posts are they🎃
