Super excited to unboxing the Traxxas TRX-4 from rcMart! This is my first scale trail rig. In this video, I explore all the cool features, some Yeah Racing accessories, and take it out on my first trail adventure.
Looking forward to building a crawler course in my backyard and exploring some new trails. Feel free to suggest some mods/upgrades/accessories for me to consider!
Update: Just read that you CAN switch between hi/low speed and initiate the diff lock system when your car is moving. Not sure where I misread that!! ;) However, they do suggest that you slow the car before moving between hi to low gears.

13.40 to 14.20 i think i held my breath the entire time. never been so nervous. im saving up for my first proper RC car at the moment so binge watching rc videos. love this one, thank you

@nielsjuhr594 6 лет назад

It's refreshing to hear somebody say they got their RC rig because of its features as opposed to its brand name. Thank you for that.

@paulh1860 5 лет назад

I got mine because Traxxas

@jaredharris1970 3 года назад

Got mine because of the 2 speed gearbox u can select from transmitter not all RC’s have low/ high gear

@jmd200766mustang 6 лет назад

Awesome video! Scale building is absolute fun and testing your rigs and making adjustments as needed is a fun challenge and finding those tough lines to nail on the trail or rock crawling is a blast. keep us updated on it and keep the rubberside down!😎💯

@carlgulbransen4852 5 лет назад

It's July 15, 2019 . I just joined your channel a few days ago. I get my vicarious RC thrill watching you review these RC vehicles. I like all RC but planes of all types are my fav. You are quickly becoming one of my RC favs too. So much to learn and try! Thrilled for ya! Oh yeah, Thanks! Carl The C Gul

@bodarville7860 5 лет назад

Been going back and forth between different models gonna get the 79 Bronco. My uncle had one when I was a kid and it reminds me so much of the 80s. Spent many summers on the dunes at Pismo in that Bronco.

@Sticker-Happy 6 лет назад

Great video! I bought the Red one and this makes it my first Traxxas, have had it for about a year, been in the shed rusting for the past 5 months and was seized around the links and front diff but ive just finished rebuilding/maintenance and apart from the surface rust shes back to her old glory. These things are built pretty tough! PS: Hello to the Chooks!

@Braveblackjeep 6 лет назад

Nice! You should glue a pull string from a fan in the fake wench on the bumper or in the squares on the front bumper to add weight to the front of the truck. It helps the truck keep all 4 wheels on the ground.

@duante6158 6 лет назад

Love your videos...I have been eyeing axials for a long time. I think I am sold on this. I like the low speed, high speed option, and locking diffs. Will probably get one of these first, and get a axial kit to build. I love it with the grey body.

@knigh_hawk_733 6 лет назад

Always a pleasure watching your videos it was nice to hear you say yeah I did it as you cleared the logs. Merry Christmas hope you have a great holiday. Cheers

@RCGirl 6 лет назад

Haha! Yeah I'm new to crawling so it's a learning experience for me, and always really exciting to clear a feature. Glad you liked!

@giostealthr1 6 лет назад

Excellent review of the Traxxas TRX-4 Hopefully your channel can be an inspiration for more women and girls to experience radio control. Thank you for sharing your videos and happy new year !

@josephfogus6735 4 года назад

Great job, great content! I run most of my cars in the 70/30 trim. Great for easing into the throttle. Make sure you program first don't try to switch while car is on, it will take off! Lol

@HC62MMM1984 6 лет назад

Excellent video. I love my Rover best of all my RC cars/trucks. Its so realistic. I have modified it though...weighted the wheels, extended the axials 4 mm each, new tires with a more sticky tread. Did strip the steering arm but will stay with the plastic arm since it will strip before it will damage the gears and break the servo. Looking forward to more videos.

@andyrichey1192 6 лет назад

Great on boxing, good job and I described your channel. I wouldn't know which color of body to tell you as I love them both . And a happy new year to you I'll be watching more are your videos thank you for sharing

@HassanAnge 10 месяцев назад

Got mine today, super exited

@armandcouture4655 6 лет назад

Got this for my son at First but then took out side and decided I wanted it. Got him a drift car, the 4 Tec 2.0 instead. Merry Christmas!! I started building a crawl course as well.

@DargoDog 5 лет назад

Hope you are still having fun with this truck, I really enjoy my TRX4 and in the process of building a second one. As far as the Axial/Traxxas rivalry goes, for most of us, it doesn't matter in the least. If your rig puts a grin on your face, then it is the right one for you.

@RCGirl 5 лет назад

Yep still love it and adding to my rig!!

@fullyrc8555 5 лет назад

Wish my wife had the same interest in rc as you do lol! Mind you she does join in when we take the dog for a walk 😄 so can’t complain to much haha

@ericlewandowskivlogs 6 лет назад

Liked and Subbed. Picking one of these up and cant get enough of these videos of it. Coming from the drone world into the rc car world.

@TheDeLeonGarageCollection 4 года назад

I have to say, of all the RC videos I watch, I watch a ton, your videos are the most thorough and you take the time to explain everything. Keep up the great work. From one RC enthusiast who's been doing it every aspect of the hobby, I appreciate your attention to detail.

@snareguy5 6 лет назад

You'll love it. I just got the tactical edition. Couldn't be happier. I'll be doing lots of mods!

@TheGilounet 6 лет назад

Hi, Discovered your cool review. Just received my Bronco...looks amazing too. Love your videos... So I subscribed immediately to your channel Cheers from France!

@RCGirl 6 лет назад

TheGilounet awesome congrats on the bronco!!

@TerraQuestRC 6 лет назад

congratulations on growing up..lol. Having been around a couple of these on the trail, absolutely did not make a mistake getting it. Sure there can be a couple issues, but what rtr or kit doesn't. Just think you will have a whole lot fewer issues with this one. So far the only problems that a friend of mine has had, stripped the servo horn, thought it was the servo gears but it was the horn. So we upgraded the servo but kept with the plastic horn just to be safe for the servo. Tires are actually pretty good all around, multiple conditions. Put some bands around the tires and seal the vents on the wheels for a small amount of negative pressure (not so much that they have flat spots) and they become even better, besides keeping the water out of the foams. If you keep the body but want to have an interior, there are plenty of products for, carefully stripping away the paint. Its slow tedious work, but can be done. I like the gray body, it has a chameleon effect when your out running and will reduce the "bored with this color". So remember it is a scale truck first, it can do some crawling. Keeping this in mind and you won't be disappointed.

@RCGirl 6 лет назад

Terra Quest RC all great points! I’ll do the tire tip you suggested to have some negative pressure. Heard from a few people about the servo horn issues. You recommend just upgrading the servo instead of getting an aluminum horn? Since I’ll have two bodies, I might try the window paint removal!

@TerraQuestRC 6 лет назад

exactly, just a servo upgrade, you'll appreciate it. Protect the costly components by having some weak links that are easy to replace in the chain, unless they just strip out or break too often. That goes for the steering as well as the drivetrain. Another point and one I have seen mentioned before, have a small amount of vehicle roll without throttle if you can (coasting) when operating the differential locks, even the transmission, but mostly important for the differentials. The sub-micro servo's are plastic geared, very delicate and the gears will shear off in the servo if binding occurs while activating or deactivating. Had this happen with my Summit and believe me, you don't want to try and replace the gear set.

@RCGirl 6 лет назад

Terra Quest RC do you have any servo recommendations?

@TerraQuestRC 6 лет назад

I have become a bit biased towards the Savox SW-1210SG for my steering needs. Have been putting them in all my rigs and not one has let me down (5 so far in my rigs and then the one in my friends TRX). Steel Gears vs Metal Gear ( means you may have brass and aluminum in there), waterproof and more than enough torque without worrying about having to get an external BEC. Which ever you may decide to change to if you have to, watch the length of the lead on the new servo, you may need an extension. You don't want a long lead from the receiver to the servo, so about a 9" extension should cover it, used a 12 and just bundled the excess.

@Braveblackjeep 6 лет назад

Yay I found an rc girl like me!!

@RCGirl 6 лет назад

Yes!!!

@eyldihyde921 6 лет назад

Does this model break easily? I was playing with a cheap rc truck with my gurlfriend and we had alot of fun but the thing is it doesnt have enough powere to climb rocky trails. Im thinking of getting an rc rather than a computer console. I just want a suggestion of a truck that i can buy that looks good and can climb rocky trails and cheap . . thanks for the reply . . have a good day to you

@5yearsago286 3 года назад

@@eyldihyde921 this truck is super good and it doesn’t break.well it does break but it doesn’t break easily

@AndyMast666 6 лет назад

Another idea to keep the front down is to put some alloy wheel balance weights taped inside the hood, just something I will be having a look at when my trx arrives. 😀

@montanarc4148 5 лет назад

Awesome vehicle, thanks for posting up the coverage.

Not into crawlers yet, but must say your videos and footage are AWESOME!!! Merry Christmas RC Girl!!! Keep up the KILLER work. 🍻🎄🎅🙋🙋😲😲😲😱😎💪👊👊

@RCGirl 6 лет назад

Thanks!! I still love the bashers, but scale driving takes a bit more finesse for sure.

@richduperbash2966 6 лет назад

RC Girl yeah no doubt. You've got the finesse part down I'd say. I'll have to give it a try in 2018.🍻😀

@RCGirl 6 лет назад

Doug Rowell that's awesome! Full size one sounds way fun

@joeddejohn 6 лет назад

Nice to see you unbox a more serious r.c. Looks like fun. Congratulations. Might be fun in the snow. Saw L.A. In Chicago luckily we won the game but ultimately lost the series. Sweet looking rig. Interesting to see how that motor holds up and some of the after run maintenance post water runs. How can it be waterproof with holes in the tires? Even though I never owned a Traxxas love their color manuals. You blew my mind with the accessories.

@johnh5311 5 лет назад

Nice Video, like the crawling footage and really appreciate the audio settings. Nice to have crawling footage without death metal soundtrack also..well done.

there are a lot of option parts for the body and kit. the servos may be a weakness on it. you may be able to replace the small servos with other micro servos

@souledoutrc8174 6 лет назад

Awesome unboxing and you did really well explaining some of the cool features on this rig. I would suggest upgrading to beadlock wheels and better tires proline Hyrax or whichever you prefer and also you can purchase a warn winch from Rc4wd that would give you more scale realism and I just subscribed thanks for sharing and will look forward to seeing your crawling videos.

@RCGirl 6 лет назад

Souledout RC yeah I’ve been thinking about beadlocks and a winch! With the winch, I’d have to get a new front bumper, so still thinking that through. Thanks for the sub!

@souledoutrc8174 6 лет назад

RC Girl awesome and there are quite a few bumpers for this rig from different manufacturers such as SSD rc Rc4wd and knights customs. Have a blessed New Year in 2018 Happy trailing.

@wadecaton4017 6 лет назад

The instructions in the box say you can shift on the fly and lock or unlock diff's at any speed which I do all the time. No problems after 4 months of daily use. I love all three of my TRX4 trucks.

@TheBackpackcountry 6 лет назад

Nicely presented video all around! My suggestions for it would be metal beadlock alloy wheels and/or possibly a metal bumper with a working winch. The metal down low helps immensely with center of gravity which helps all around, and then the bumper will save some cosmetic damage coming down from sharp drops or when you make a mistake, as well as possibly offset some weight if one wanted to keep the spare tire on, cause its cool as shit and no one in their right mind would go hardcore wheeling without a spare. But again nice video hope to see more in the future!

@TheBackpackcountry 6 лет назад

I see now as i read many other people have said the same thing in that case i am just seconding all their opinions I suppose

@sjakjoosten5499 6 лет назад

Nice unboxing! The multi function dial is for dialing in the speed for cruiscontrol. Have the truck for a few months and it its great. The stock motor is oke but i eventualy change the powersystem for a castle mamba x with the crawler combo (2280kv) for 4s lipo. Merry xmas and a happy new year!

@RCGirl 6 лет назад

Oh interesting. 4s isn't too much power?

@sjakjoosten5499 6 лет назад

@Subparanon 6 лет назад

Also got to say that this truck fills a void I didn't know I had. Scale. I love that it's prototypical and looks and more importantly drives like the full scale. I have race trucks and 1/8 stadium trucks that go 120mph and those are fun, but none of them feel like a real car, and it's form following function. Scale is awesome because the way it drives and moves is very realistic, and it fills a need I didn't know I had. Love scale cars now and plan to build more.

@RCGirl 6 лет назад

@paullewis6612 4 года назад

Hi RC Girl. I’ve just subscribed because I also like Defenders. Now, although the idea is from an earlier era , you could always take the spare wheel off the back and fasten it to the bonnet! If you look at the older “Series “ Land Rovers, a lot of them had this. Mine did! You’d have to check how well the body fits, and how the C.O.G. Is affected, but you would certainly have more weight up front. It’s just an idea. Like you said, it’s your money, you bought it ! Keep safe.
