It is a different type of build than we usually do, with a focus more on trail driving and overlanding as opposed to hardcore rock crawling. Check out the video to see the full breakdown and to see the rig in action!

@Cape Crawlers I've invested in all Traxxas upgrades for my first. I was going to purchase at least one or two more and build them up using some aftermarket parts..you know. I really like what you and others have been able to do with and wanted to do something kind of original myself. I've been working on my Deadbolt. It's in need of some taller tires and rims. I purchased a Reefs 99 and an aftermarket 3d printed servo mount that should fit perfectly. Happy Rcing!

Then more metal components around the bore of the axels to bring the centre of gravity closer to the ground as well

This video was great and inspired me to get my own defender, which now has a few upgrades on it as well, thanks to your tips. The suspension does seem to not flex much in the front, however, and it seems like the upper control arms are "binding". I've double checked and they are mounted correctly. Any thoughts?

I wonder what the low gears could do with the new Injora motors. Can you do a video review for both the 55t and the 48t paired with the low gears? Thank you 😊 The defender performance could also improve a lot with the Injora high clearance steel links or some HC brass links to compensate for the top heaviness. I will put the Injora ones in my bronco build. Because we'll OCD kicked in when I had to upgrade them when my daughter destroyed one. She is trigger happy. Drove over a pile of clothes and cut the driveshaft clean from the motor end. Maybe that saved the gears. Now they need to match! 😂😅

@JP-qq2kn
@JP-qq2kn Год назад
Nice truck! Great video! I have a question about the driveshaft orientation and the driveshafts falling out at full suspension drop.. Does it matter which way they are installed? Does it matter if the big end of the shaft is on the bottom and the small end is at the top? Or other way around.. I figured having the smaller, lighter end on the bottom would be better n less likely to fall out, but it still falls out occasionally at full suspension drop.
@CapeCrawlers
@CapeCrawlers Год назад
Thanks! For these shafts they are directional, so there's only one way to mount them. I typically mount the larger end of the shaft closest to the motor if the setup allows. Not sure if it makes any difference though.

@CapeCrawlers
@CapeCrawlers Год назад
Thank you! If I could only buy one scx24 it would be the gladiator. The wheelbase and the appearance of it just work for me and it performs very good. For the TRX4M, I would buy the bronco. It's lighter and lower, so it performs better (but not by a huge margin), and I just prefer the looks of it.
@JUSTHAVEFUNRC
@JUSTHAVEFUNRC Год назад
The bronco body will fit if you modify it like you did your black bronco. Cut the mirror/cowl support bar out. Also I think traxxas makes springs for the trx4m. Maybe the heaviest stiffness one might help sag. I think axels defender is definitely heavy enough to make them flex.

I'd pick up an Ecopower 640T if you need to replace the servo again. It's ever so slightly too tall to fit in without adding spacers under the side "wings" but it's fast, all metal geared and only $30. One thing I am curious about is whether or not you're noticed and binding with those driveshafts. I bought a set and the front binds quite a bit.

Question 4 ya, on scx 24 front lower shock screw broke. A little is sticking out. How do I get it out. Metal axel

You can try to thread a screw in the other side to see if you can push it out, you can glue the tip of your driver to the stub to see if it grabs enough to get it, or you can drill it out

Does anyone know if the 62mm work with the defender body on stock suspension?

It will work. You will raise your ride height significantly though

Do you have flex blades on this?
@CapeCrawlers
@CapeCrawlers Год назад
Right now yes, we're running the Injora flex extensions on it. In this video I think I had them on the rear only and the Adaptive Designs model

@CapeCrawlers I have the adaptivdesigns on the rear, would you recommend putting on the front or not needed?

Love it! Just finished a High Trail build and am now on my TRX4M Defender. Literally ordered the whole Injora parts list. I was curious if you got the tail to sit a bit higher as it looks to rest the body on the tires when just driving? Also, what weight oil did you use in the shocks? Since my body will have the same add ons as yours it seems I may want to go with heavier oil. I know its unsprung but I also have the brass wheels from Injora in route which will make the body move more on drops. Great video and great build. Even cooler its with your boy! Awesome sauce!

Thanks for watching! I run 20wt shock oil but I think it could benefit from thicker in the back. Even with some pretty aggressive preload adjustment it sags pretty significantly. The optional stiffer springs could do the trick in the back but I feel like they're too stiff.

Steel shafts on a 750mah battery. I guess the weight helps stability.... But that battery ain't twisting stock shafts.

I like the steel shafts more for the u joint style. I’m not a fan of the cv style stock

The trx4m is a great truck. I wish traxxas or anyone would come out with a bunch of overland stuff for the trailer. There's very little out there for it. Maybe I'm not looking in the right places for stuff.

I saw they just released wooden side rails, but thats about it. I would like to see more accessories as well.
@oldschooldude3500
@oldschooldude3500 Год назад
I did see the wooden sides traxxas has. It's a start. I've found a few things on esty as well. But nothing enough to be excited for. I would really like to see 1/18 scale roof tent like the scx24 gladiator has. And a bunch of rail attachments for it. Maybe eventually if no one makes anything more ill have to try making something myself.
