In this episode, I continue to refine the Traxxas TRX4M. I get my hands on a bunch of brass parts to add weight and widen the track. After some disappointing runs, I go back to the drawing board and add new Losi shocks, upgraded chassis kit, and make more body adjustments. The end result was worth the trouble!

Hey I jw I was looking at the hot racing mini b shocks I've been looking at them but wasn't sure they would work as well or if I should just get regular aluminum mini b shocks I was also looking at the hot racing 1/18 dromida shocks they seem different but wasn't sure love the build

Man it's so much fun to modify. It's like being in constant discovery mode because everything is so new!

@piercetheheavens Год назад

After lots of testing I maxed out at 56 degree incline with the stock shocks and springs. The trx4m has a lot of torque twist and I found that putting 4 shock spacers on the rear passenger made it crawl so much better. Might be worth checking out and putting a weak spring in the rear right to combat that torque twist.

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

56 is impressive! That explains why the stock setup has the spacer pre installed in the rear. I’ll do some tweaking with this in mind 👍🏻

@ericmyers1306 Год назад

I am in process of building an extended wheelbase trx4m. Will be cutting the front frame arms off for more servo clearance. Losi B shocks are on the way! thanks for proving them out. You're going to need to run rear springs of some sort. I just can't get away without them to reduce the frame twist. My rubber band limiter seems to be most effective when connected to the servo bracket instead of the links. Love to see where this build is heading. I've given up on the factory body. Even after removing the top and windows, it's still crazy heavy.

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

Interested to hear how your build progresses! What are you using for links? I'm going to be testing a new frame from Furitek you may be very interested in...

@ericmyers1306 Год назад

@@CapeCrawlers I see they just posted the Bettle for pre-order ;) I'm going for LCG type crawler, so I prefer grasshopper style with full length rails so I can push the upper shock mounts toward the link pivots. I'm going to see how far the factory chassis rails will get me, first. for mocking up, new setup will be factory trx4m rear lower links with custom length uppers to provide appropriate front caster angle. Once I finalize that, I'll likely fab some custom high-clearance links front and rear.

Yet another awesome video with a great setup on another rig! The improvement was awesome to see, after the problems were solved. Those shocks are sweet! The hex extenders are definitely nice, but I think it would be a very worthwhile sacrifice to loose them and keep the wheels and tires. How are your RCAWD Portals on the Gladiator holding up now? I'm thinking about getting a set! Also, you should try out some tracks! Your video on it would be super awesome! My guess for the weight is 907g, with the battery!

After doing the budget lift on this thing I found that the axle pins kept popping out on all of them and I lost all the pins. What I did to fix this issues was to put a paper clip thru then wrapped it around the driveshafts where the o-rings would be and I have had an issue since. I’ve just got major binding while driving straight. Drive line angles are too aggressive causing this bind.

Axle housing weight and lower link weight. Shock bottoms weighted. Then it’s all about those foams/tires combination. . The most common mistake is heavy wheels, which is rotational weight and is no good when the right shocks are mounted correctly.

Another awesome Video Adam! Curious if you have a video on possible issues to experience with the scx24 mods? I recently purchased 3 of them so i can wheel with my kiddos. I bought links, trans, servo, axles and gears for my gladiator scx24 but Since i did the build my truck doesn't work...long storey short, My wheels spin constantly, as soon as i turn it on they start moving, and the rig doesn't go very fast anymore, not sure what i did wrong??? maybe i tightened the trans to much? wheels are lose enough i believe, but i do have aftermarket bead-locks, but not sure why the wheels move forward constantly. Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙂

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

That's a good idea: pitfalls of upgrades! Your issue sounds like an electrical one of some sort. Possibly the transmitter and the throttle settings? Have you tried messing with the throttle adjustments? It could be a faulty ESC also. Sometimes they glitch out after adding new electronics or heavier/more demanding upgrades.

@deanweller5789 Год назад

@@CapeCrawlers Ow really? I never considered it might be the ESC, I tried adjusting all the throttle setting manually, but it didn't help, I thought possibly i put the cable into the ESC upside down, that didn't help either, looks like I'll have to buy a new ESC, do you have any you recommendations? or just the stock ESC?

I ran into this with mine. Try experimenting with different shock mounting positions up front. Also make sure that your shock body isn't too tight against the frame rails. That was my problem: the shock couldn't pivot on the hardware and would stick.

@wrecklass Год назад

I'm gonna say this looks like articulation for the sake of articulation without understanding what suspension does. You need to have a close look at weight distribution and how much total weight you've added. Added torque wants to be planted and properly balanced. In addition torque twisting needs to be addressed with that weight distribution. Just having the wheels touch the ground doesn't help if the torque is going to the wrong wheel(s). This is meant as constructive criticism, I really like the videos. 😎

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

You are absolutely right: articulation for the sake of articulation. Just plain fun. I fell in love with tinkering these little things chasing the articulation, so it's almost my default approach to see how much articulation I can get out of these things.

What oil weight are you using ? going to try that trick

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

Traxxas 20wt

@DV8.RC. Год назад

Thanks, just ordered them waiting on the carbon fiber frame rails .

Do you have an issue with your front upper links hitting the bottom of your servo not allowing it to flex to its full potential

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

I’ve not noticed that but you’ve got me curious now. I’ll take a look to see if that’s happening!

@oldblue6.068 Год назад

It’s been a constant issue from stock link to upgraded links to servo tray. I can see the links hitting the very bottom of the servo on the furthest back edge

@Jr_thesender 2 месяца назад

On your old set up how did you let your front links move up and down fully? I've got the Injora high clearance links and a Injora 11kg servo and I tried replicating your old setup but it seems like the shocks won't extend all the way, I really wanna save this and hope not to buy another Chassis

@CapeCrawlers Help would be appreciated.

@CapeCrawlers 2 месяца назад

The servo mount is always going to limit your vertical axle drop. There isn’t really a way around that. You can articulate really well side to side with an aftermarket chassis and/or a laydown servo mount, but the upper link mounting on the front will always hold you back

@@CapeCrawlers Okay thanks for the help!

@samintrepid 11 месяцев назад

2 pound approximately :)

@thatgearguy Год назад

590g

@chancetrinosky7112 Год назад

Gonna guess 886G. Considering I am doing a very similar build and have already been adding the weight of my parts together.

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

You got the closest Chance! True weight is 888g. You got within 2g without going over. Shoot me an email so I can get your info for the gift card!

@chancetrinosky7112 Год назад

Thanks so much! Glad to see my math was actually pretty accurate considering I added weight of all the parts from weight of the stock truck. Thanks for your generosity and excited to see how this truck comes out in future as more parts are released.

I’ve run into an issue the trx4m won’t climb after new brass wheel’s install just stops when going vertical

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

Stock gears? You may be overwhelming the drive train if the wheels are too heavy.

@philippstocker9507 Год назад

can you may publish the STL file for the shock mount?

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

I didnt make them myself or I would. I got them from Jo RC's design on Etsy.

@ps360bros Год назад

im gonna go big and say 1105 grams. also, what oil are you running in the losi shocks?

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

You overshot! I’m running traxxas 20wt.

@makpsv Год назад

Nice upgrades and nice truck! Do you have a preference in using the SCX24 or the TRX4-M? I'm glad you solved the brightness issue on your videos. Was it in settings? 👍

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

I still prefer the scx24 only because I have more options for body styles and more articulation in my rigs. But the traxxas is closing that gap rapidly! For the brightness settings, I switched to the Moment app to record my videos. It allows me to customize the lighting much more than the iPhone standard software

@makpsv Год назад

@@CapeCrawlers The brightness issue is gone, so that app worked like a charm! 👍

@ZacharyEldredge Год назад

im also from cape cod, i live in harwich. where do you go crawling on cape? Lets Crawl sometime

@CapeCrawlers Год назад

Aye I am in Hyannis! I like to go to a spot behind BJ's in Hyannis or behind the Coca Cola bottling plant in Sandwich.

@Friskee62 4 месяца назад

Get rid of that rear spare. Get yourself a 3D front bumper. I have one and it never interferes with the front tires. It is about an inch long, dead center of the front of the truck...
