Traxxas will have hired killers out looking for the maker of that clone!

@johnsavage7842 Год назад

I like the way you kept calling the trx4 " the original ", I think its a shame taxxas is being like they are but I guess they want to protect their products ," the origina"l keeps you out of trouble and not cut off by traxxas , keep up the great videos, I love them

@justinthomas6532 Год назад

Who is trashas suing over this??? All I wanna know.....

@keldonator Год назад

This is $150 on aliexpress

@rc-daily Год назад

I've had my trx4 sport and regular trx4 g500. I've never had the trans apart or the rear axles. Also, the divets are made like that. Even the axles they sell are built like that. I just punch the hole on through.

@jameshankssr466 Год назад

Those divits on that shaft are machined in you could never tighten that driveshaft enough to put those in there no matter how soft the metal is! FYI i have an ebay scx10.2 clone made by austar $125 with those same tires and stays right with my axial scx10.2. Been running it for over 2yrs now and nothing has broken. The only thing i did to it was a holmes 13t crawlmaster motor and brass weights in the front wheels its a good truck for the money

@ruger1420 Год назад

The clone might get sued by Traxxas. Lol.

@ninthislandrc Год назад

Regarding the clone, overall, they did do an extremely good job. Obviously, the plastic gears will be a problem...but, other than that, pretty darn close. Here's an 'interesting' question. Briefly referencing what happened a couple weeks ago (enough has been said about it that it doesn't need to be outright stated)...moving forward, is everyone (with the exception of those who have a strong 'connection' to the company, ex. MSM) going to be 'afraid' to even say the word "Traxxas" in their videos?

@mitsuman5555 Год назад

Nice option for people who like the platform but don't want to support the "T'" company.

@aegixxer1 Год назад

Let's see if the Traxxas law hawks can snipe this one... They've been on a warpath lately. Maybe this is what sparked it.

@robinhisloprh Год назад

I've had a TRX-4 sport for a number of years and drive it hard. I've not had a single problem with it. I would take a used TRX-4 over this clone every time. But I'm interested to see how tough it is considering the price.

@craigpimlott204 Год назад

I’ve ran the axial copied one for three years. the axles suck diffs are soft metal ..(even worse than the Gmade pot metal diffs on the gs01 .if you’ve got a heavy rig don’t bother with gs01 axles ) so got swapped for some spare ar44’s the rest hasn’t had any problems .makes a great trail truck has done for the last three years without any more breakages than my axial crawlers

@zincyellowmach1523 Год назад

I bought a highly rated clone axial for my kid and was pretty impressed until she drove it twice, it has been nothing but trouble since. I'll pay extra to have my truck keep running when I'm deep in a trail. Traxxas makes a good quality product.

@rc-daily Год назад

The quality of a axial clone is bad. This one however seems to be pretty great. But then again, the traxxas design is much tougher overall to begin with.

@natashe7555 Год назад

I got the axial clone. The only problem is the axle. Change it to a better axle and now its pretty good. Rolled 10m from a steep hill and the front tyre rod mount just got bent.. nothing else break

@Hutch_Davenport Месяц назад

Depends on what you are buying. Austar makes a TRX4m clone that is much cheaper and better than the TRX4m. If you want quality research is as important as dollars.

Now all clones are just as good and some are better I know I have a couple fo example I have the cloned Tamiya Bruiser frome like 1984 or 85 and they were around $800 in the 80s anyway as soon as I saw a clone called HGP 407 it looks so much like it you can only think they used the same dies to make the metal axles and it's got a all metal 3 gear transmission it's leaf sprung just like original and it was rtr for $200.00 and in 1985 it was so advanced I guess they wanted certain people could have it that's alot of money!!!!

I really don't know as much about RC's as I have only been at it for 2 years now. I wish I had started sooner but many of the cars are out of my reach price wise. Still I have fun with what I have.
