Traxxas
TRA3350R
The next generation of extreme brushless horsepower is here, Ready-To-Race® from Traxxas—and now waterproof! Velineon™ is the ultimate brushless system delivering the tire melting horsepower, supercharged speeds, and ease of use that you expect from Traxxas. Just plug it in and it works.
The key to the Velineon’s extreme power output is total system optimization. Each component, from the Traxxas high-current battery connector, to the powerful Velineon 3500 brushless motor, is carefully engineered to work with other system components to eliminate restriction and allow maximum power flow. High-frequency transistors and advanced circuit design delivers incredibly smooth and refined throttle control. The Velineon system accepts the widest range of battery types, including 3-cell Lithium Polymer packs (3S LiPo packs). Built-in low-voltage detection in the VXL-3s electronic speed control helps keep LiPo battery packs in top condition.
Traxxas’ exclusive waterproof technology allows the Velineon system to operate in wet conditions, including mud and snow, with no special precautions required. You decide where the Velineon powered adventure leads—the only limits are your imagination.

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
my boss bought this combo, and it is very fast with a 2s lipo, and putting a 3s is like nitrous. And amainhobbies.com has the best price on this combo, and great shipping prices. This combo is so sick I just ordered one , I chose it over the mamba max, for the simple fact it's waterproof and cheaper than the MM.)

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
I purchased this power system combo back in 2010. It has been installed in two 2WD traxxas slash. I have ran too many gear ratios to remember them all. the first truck I owned was for two and a half / three years and it got to the point that the truck was abused beyond rebuilding and cost effect was to spend another $200.00 on a basic slash and install the esc motor in the new truck. only modification made. To date the motor still runs strong as day one no problems with the esc at all. I use 2s and 3s lipo's in all my vehicles traxxas and non traxxas I swap out the connectors to make them compatible. I beat the snot out of all my trucks including my slash. I have replace about every part except the esc and motor. would recommend this to anyone from beginner to expert.)

I have this set up on my slash 4x4 such a good combo. I have been running dual 3000 mah batteries and this thing flies down the street its also a really got combo because it something does go wrong you can send it to traxxas and they will send you a new one for free i dont know any other companies that will do that if you are looking to run 3s lipo put a vxl3s fan on it. that will keep temps down by 30 degrees. i have had this combo for over 5 months and never had a problem with it. :))

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
Got this motor / speed control and placed in my slash 2wd. Almost too fast for the medium sized indoor track I run on for my abilities. When I run at 1/2 to 3/4 thottle I seem to do alright. Full throttle causes chaos! I wish Traxxas would make same motor but in different turns such as 13.5 and a 17.5 turn. Being able to adjust throttle punch and such would also be nice. For the money, very nice system.)

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
This ESC/Motor Combo is crazy powerful!! After I put it in my Slash, I ran with the same Nimh battery I had with the normal XL-5, and I noticed that not only did it run faster but it actually made the battery runtime last longer. Then I just got a 3S Lipo in it & it screams, on top of pulling uncontrollable wheelies! On top of that, it's waterproof like all Traxxas products, unlike the mamba max. I was originally gonna go with the Mamba Max, but after consulting my local hobby shop & hearing about the dozens of problems with the Mamba compared to one remote problem with the Velineon, I gotta say the Velineon was the best choice.)

between your gearing and the size wheels you are running, your problem lies there, esc's and motors don't just burn up especially with products from a renouned company.)

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
Sounds like you may have a lemon but also you may have 1) reverse polarity on your battery plugs or 2) same on receiver wire to esc --3) a short in your system somewhere 4) an over-volted battery?--Are you certain you don't?!? That system is made for 7.2 volts--no? One thing about Traxxas is they have had GREAT customer support whenever I called them.)

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
I do not personally own this combo, but my friend with whom I often drive, does. His Velineon system has outlasted three of my own: a Castle MMP 3800Kv and two Viper Copperhead 5100Kv combos. He now has it on 3S and it SCREAMS. I'm gonna break down and buy one now because it's just as fast as any of my other systems, less expensive than most, and it is JUST SO RELIABLE!
Don't bother with brand names - put this combo on 3S and NO ONE will be able to tell the difference as long as your body shell is on!)

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
This came with my Slash 2wd VXL. It's really powerful and easy to use. I've never had a problem with it. I've used 2s Lipo for most of the time that I've had it. Now I'm using it in my TLR 22SCT with a 86T Spur and 17T pinion which I race in an open class. It's got plenty of power for racing and is very reliable. The only downside is that the ESC is larger than most, but it's also water proof and that's a plus.)

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
Love it, I live in Australia so I find the motor does get pretty hot so I run gearing a touch lower with 2s packs and never had a problem that way, I did seize a motor running stock gearing and 3s for 15 minutes on a hot day in sand but I was asking for problems, be sensible and don't push the limits and you will enjoy affordable waterproof power. I did replace the set up with a sc8 wp hobbywing and castle 1410 4 pole but I couldnt tell much difference. Traxxas nailed it with this combo 2 thumbs up)

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
Worst I ever had every Traxxas vxl I have died 7 esc & 4 motors & because I live in Australia Traxxas gives no warranty. I can send back $50 to fix each & $30 post.I changed to mamba max pro on all.Castle gives warranty no questions asked if they die they replace I only pay the post.
Two of the esc were only one month old same with two motors no warranty thanks for nothing Traxxas & there not water proof one died in the lite rain. Buy castle.)

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
This combo is awesome! my slash 2wd is a monster now! i got the system and also bought the cooling fan because i got it in the summer and i already had a cooling fan for the motor. the esc is good for the price and the motor. the brushed system used to get really hot after 5 minutes running with a dynamite 5100mAh and 19t pinion and 90t spur. with this system it will have 23t pinion and 83t spur it will go 3x as much minutes and still be under 130f all and all i say it is a great system for getting into brushless motors.)

Traxxas VXL-3S Velineon Brushless Power System Combo (Waterproof)
I have bought 2 of these systems and broke both of the esc's. The motor on the other hand is exelent but the esc is well near terrible in my opinion. The button on the esc gets stuck after short use and is very likely to fry with all the water proof silicon in the esc. I do NOT recommend the esc. I would buy the motor because it has no problems ... SO FAR!)
