I had to find new, less physical hobbies since I was diagnosed with cancer last year. Between this channel and Kevin's channel my choice was easy. So much fun! Bought my first "real" RC last week. I picked up a Traxxas Slash VXL 4x4. I have already done some upgrades and can't wait to do more! Thanks for providing great RC content!❤

@kpkp2655 Год назад

Your next RC should be the Rustler VXL AWD. It's a beast.

@AdamAlistair Год назад

@@kpkp2655 is it bigger?

@scarce331 Год назад

@SnoopDabb it's a slightly shorter version of your slash. I'd actually look into a different rc for your next one personally.

@a1nova165 Год назад

@@AdamAlistair Hope you are doing well and you will be fine I would also recommend the hoss 4x4 vxl its bigger and faster, have a great day!

@AdamAlistair Год назад

@@a1nova165 I just bought an 8s X-MAXX! Just waiting to go pick it up! Smokin deal too! two of every spare part possible, 6 batteries, 2 sets of wheels/tires, 2 servos, 2 esc's and 2 motors. All for $1600 CAD ($1100 USD). I am so PUMPED!

@jcubmoore3710 Год назад

Mark! Amber and I greatly appreciate your generosity! Your love and support for the hobby is unmatched bro!

@ambermoore8664 Год назад

Thank you so much again! They are so stoked for our Race to 1st! We will take great care of them and return them with mirrors intact!

@UpperLeftRC Год назад

You should pick up the Traxxas defender “body kit” as well, it comes white unpainted with all the accessories but it’s the same glossy finish and material as the stock bodies so don’t paint it and leave it white. That’s what I did for my TRX4M because I already had the Bronco and buying the defender body to mount to it when I want a different look works great! An all white defender with the black accessories looks SOOO CLEAN! Check it out for sure!

@shawnribley2515 Год назад

That’s exactly what I did.

@senKeiser 5 месяцев назад

TLDR: There's no part that you really need to upgrade. The car is really really really good out of the box 6:08

@jakedavid8187 Год назад

Good for you Mark! Those kids will love it. My 5 year old drives his all the time and its lasted well. His scx24 only lasted about 3 months before stuff started dying

@terryshaw13 Год назад

Thats awesome you picked some more up for the kids to use. And hey while they may get beat up, just means we get to look forward to a video titled something like "How durable is the TRX4M - Kindergarten tested!"

@mastodonseven 10 месяцев назад

It's for the channel

@laukc7085 Год назад

That's why I love my SCX24. It was cheap to buy, cheap to mod. Its worth about 300 bucks now and I've upgraded everything except the axles and steering knuckles. New motor, new steering servo, new bead lock wheels with tires, new shocks, all new aluminum suspension links, new aluminum steering linkage, and new aluminum bumpers. All for less than 300 bucks total.

@zacharydalton412 Год назад

Went with the Bronco, rig is balanced, Defender is rear heavy. And the light kit was my first upgrade.

@ron486 Год назад

I've said from the beginning that these handle like a 1/10 scale rig. And for the price you can't go wrong. Way to go Traxxas and more bodies styles please.

@kg4tyr Год назад

I bought one of these for my 3 year old grandson. The first thing that happened is both mirrors, and the snorkel fell off. He kept lifting it by the roof rack and pulled that off. I super glued all four pieces back on and so far they have stayed put.

@ericcastaneda8797 Год назад

I love the Bronco. That's awsome how you let kindergartners drive them. Everything you do in the rc community is awsome.

@emanuel616 Год назад

As soon as one fell off of mine I glued both of them on and now both of them are good 👍

@ToppersRC Месяц назад

Ive had my K10 for a week, perfectly fine servo. I love the truck. Put a Injora Steering Link & blew the servo within 24hrs on the same line I had been doing all week. Just made this Channel for Father Son adventures & to share some free changes that make it night & day better for Crawling.

@CipoCat6 Год назад

I hope you're helping with their RC day, I think your energy and knowledge would be great for kindergarteners.

@Hippienolic2 10 месяцев назад

Went to a hobby store today and they had a demo on of these. Awesome at slower speeds for rock crawling. Now I’m hooked

@FreedomCrawler Год назад

There’s definitely colors that look better in scale. For example the reds tend to make them look more plastic and toyish. Blue for Defender and black for Bronco just look solid in my opinion. Too faves

@jsim_rc Год назад

I'm with you on the orange. Great thing helping the kiddos 😊

@vizionct1 Год назад

Agree. All I added was bearings, Injora tires and added 20w oil to stock shocks since they ship some almost empty. Hey mark when you gonna review fms k5? My fav lil rig now.

@NBC_NCO Год назад

Traxxas light kit...150.00 Aftermarket 25.00 Traxxas...we are go8ng to sue you.

@stevelamonte1962 Год назад

i have the blue defender and the gray defender i put light kits on both also bought the little trailer and added wood stakes and sides to it

@andyb9994 Год назад

The orange is awesome, good job helping the teacher out!! 💯👍👍

@jeremyhope1437 Год назад

So I bought one of these in the winter. Just after buying a panda hobby 6X6. And I crawled the same snow track (just blown snow into a park over the winter, cause I have snow here in the winter 😂😂). Anyways. Crawled the same course. And the TRX4M bronco did better in the course then the 6X6. It’s a great little truck

@michaeldorich4485 Год назад

Loaning your cars to a kindergarten class is very nice of you. I would make one suggestion and I think you would have a great time. Go to the class and give the kids some training. You can adjust the speed for the cars. But, the one thing long drivers have a hard time with is over correcting. If the car starts to veer slightly left they will turn the wheel all the way to the right. You can give the kids some training and you will love it. If you take your sons and wife they would also have a blast.

@jdsrcs8061 Год назад

The light kit is killer for sure!!!! I picked up the Injora light bar for the defender is sweet. It cheap and bright!!! It works with the pro scale kit!!!🤘🤘🤘

@jaykallam5748 Год назад

I CANT BELIEVE THEY DIDNT MAKE IT 2 SPEED!! So disappointing... If FMS can do it, Traxxas could have done it too.

@JayJacksRC Год назад

I prefer the defender personally I just think it looks super scale and plenty of room for accessories;)

@bigkennyg.621 Год назад

I’ve killed a servo , a motor and several of the original shocks won’t hold oil and yes I’ve busted several mirrors but I love this little truck

@kennethmeyers5008 Год назад

My fav is the green and orange defender. The bronco. I love the white OJ lol

@theAessaya Год назад

I prefer the Bronco over Defender. And _Cyber Orange_ is the best color. Personally I have the blue bronco, with the lights kit :) Of other upgrades I've got the two-piece wheels with brass weight inlays and Mickey Thompson Baja Pro tyres for better grip. Also installed steel suspension linkages, and swapped in some stiffer springs.

@AKYLE315 5 месяцев назад

Injora makes some cool ecsessories and parts for it

@T00LF00L Год назад

I finally got my mini Defender, I had to get the new tan color! 😍

@briansimonds4579 Год назад

best web site to order upgrades for these i just bought me and my daughter each one

@brandonault8911 7 месяцев назад

Are they able to operate all 3 at the same time. Not to familiar with these and looking to get my 2 boys some and wanted to make sure they won’t interfere. Thanks

@isaacsanchez4435 Год назад

I like the defender only because I have a green one. I have an injora light kit and light bar on it. power hobby wheels j concepts tires and my favorite part of the truck, danglers.

@myharryface Год назад

I think we all love new RC cars!!! We get it Mark.

@Mrtmbathke Год назад

I only have a Defender but it’s a bit too heavy even with wheel weights. Looking forward to getting the new blue Bronco because it matches my sons art therapists Bronco.

@leehall3181 Год назад

Thats pretty cool little setup.I like the defender. I got the og red body defender.

@but531 5 месяцев назад

I like that you said that is not necessary to upgrade it and for the lights i agree that is nice to have lights in an rc car.

@bobbylefebvre6298 Год назад

Really nice pit station

@daledavis8093 Год назад

Here is an Idea with those 3 defenders, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd get to keep one of them and they get to pick the color they want to keep, good idea or not

@joellofquist2537 9 месяцев назад

I bought one of these when they first came out now me and my whole family have 8 in total perfect truck for the beginner all the way to the experienced rc driver… I was able to throw it in the back pack and fly with it without the hassle of a bulky lipo charger and full size lipos for the price you can’t go wrong !

@mike77shell82 Год назад

You must have received the last green & grey versions because they are not in stock right now. I'm waiting for the green one. Pro light kit is on the way from Traxxas!! Awesome how excited you get over these mini crawlers. Mine is a 1:10 Axial SCX10 Jeep Rubicon JK "fully loaded". Can't wait for my mini!!

@bobbylefebvre6298 Год назад

Cool set up

@fortrangerscouts Год назад

I like the defender. The only bronco I would by would be the TRX-4 Bronco bc it’s clipless.

@d_n_r_rc_racing2449 Год назад

I was going to get one of these but opted for the FMS FCX24 K5. For the same amount of money you get portals,a two speed,and the super nice K5 Blazer body. If FMS can do it for that price point why can't Traxxas?

@jamesgreenwood6959 Год назад

I don't think I'll ever buy a trxm4 inless of a deal.. still probably not.. I love my k5 black blazer.. only gotta flip a switch to change gears..

That new color looks like a urine sample. The white or blue Bronco look the best.

@erictaylor1076 Год назад

Orange is my color though, I might have to get the Defender also.

@Austinfpv7 3 месяца назад

The trx4m (for me at least) has been really durable because I rolled it down a pretty long slope and nothing broke.

@bryonjasso3304 Год назад

I think that the bronco is better than the defender. Even though the defender was the first one to come out, it’s all about the bronco buddy.😊
