These Parts gives more weight on the axle on a low position. The result is a lower center of gravity and more grip and stability on steep terrain. Product Info: www.rcmart.com/... www.rcmart.com/... www.rcmart.com/...
Thank you David! 🙏 Yes, I agree, thread lock is always good for metal in metal. 👍 Here I feel a slightly resistance at the end when I tighten the screws. Maybe because brass is a bit softer, so I thought it's maybe not necessary. 🤔
Awesome! I love my trx4 . Steering servo arm was the first thing that went after four months of me having lots of fun can't wait to get the brass upgrades
Danke dir. Wobei ich ehrlich sagen mus hab mir jetzt auch einen Akkuschrauber zugelegt. Bei Bausätzen wo metrische 30er Schrauben in Plastik reingedreht werden sagt das Handgelenk danke... 😂😂
did you see that the TRX4 sport has only a 2ch radio? The diffs are locked in contradiction to the Bronco, The Defender and the Assault version of the TRX-4 hence doesn't need extra 2 servo's. my 2ct.
Yep how the TRX4 should have been in the first place all that extra weight and stuff in the original makes for a less agile truck and the TRX4 should work much better now.
the sport is just a bare bones trx4. non-remote locking diffs... they're permanently locked. no 2-speed transmission...just 1 crawling gear. a simpler and lighter body, but otherwise the same. same chassis, same esc & motor, same axles
I know. The new body is cool and was thinking of ordering one (when it arrives in the Netherlands) but also got a MST CMX (locked diffs) and other build projects too. I like the 2 speed part of the regular TRX-4 so just let this one pass.
They way you shot is just awesome step by step, very helpfull, can you please make a video on how to upgrate trx4 to brushless, engine sound, and winch upgrade step by step video thank you
good to see here, i was racking my brain trying to figure out if the brass c hub needed that bushing from stock c hub. Looks like i was right, it does not. Thanks good info in the vid
Awesome upgrade under the belly of the beast..I too just dropped some 💰 on complete front and rear aluminum axles with all the bells and whistles. Brass is probably heavier but I was going for the stock look. Have you seen my trx4’s. I’ve designed some very nice and useful upgrades. You should check it out when you find the time 👍🏼
Hi first of all congratulations for the very exhaustive video, wanted to know if they can be mounted on my "RC Land Rover Defender | Double E D110" scale 1: 8? I thank you in advance. Hello
I've watched loads of vids like this and the only upside is climbing, everything else is a downside. Snake oil you don't need, Money that does not need to be spent.
I want to get in the RC world. I want to get a Traxxas trx4 like yours.... The way they come stock is good? Or do I need to modify it.? Also the body looks super cool either the defender or the bronco but I would like to have a jeep body
The TRX-4 is very good, out of the box. If you like Jeeps maybe you sould have a look at the Axial SCX-10III: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4sXQL4RSIjw.html www.axialracing.com/products/axi03003t1
I noticed that the bearings in the portal hubs had a seal on only one side? Tried watching again but not 100% sure, if I'm not mistaken I think you might have put the bearings in the wrong way, side without the seal should be inside with the gears and grease, seals facing out to prevent dirt intrusion. Just wanted to give you a heads up. Love all your videos.
Hi kk beautiful, i am very happy with your video and I have subscribed to your channel, and watch all your RC videos. .. I really have an RC car like you kk .. but in Indonesia, it's very difficult to get a car like that ... because my salary is below the RC price. i love you RC gear channel
The drive shafts fits directly without cut in the TRX-4 Defender. But the TRX-4 Bronco have a shorter wheelbase, so only for use in the Bronco this shorten is necessary.
Hi Matteo, very very nice indeed, plenty of bling, you will need sunglasses when you look at it lol. The extra weight must make a big difference to the handling. On a slightly different tack, do you know of any different wheels and tyres that look more like the real thing for the Citroen 2CV, I'm not fussed on the kit wheels and tyres, to small and wide. Any help would be appreciated. Great video as usual Matteo. 😀👍👍👍
Thanks Mike! I think it will be difficult to find something accurate for the Citroen. Maybe from some static scale models. But this will be reduce the RC performance extremely. 🤔
That looks awesome Matteo. Double thumbs up. Just ordered the blazer and looking for upgrades for it already. If you honestly thing this yeah racing trx4 brass is good quality i would probably buy them to. Any good quality light kits you can recommend me for the blazer? Thanks for any good input. :)
A lot of people would disagree on me but all these brass color on the scale crawlers looks disgusting. Airbrush it with matt black and this will look 100x better.
Of course this can be installed also. But I prefered only the front axle, because is good to have more weight on the front to climb steep trails. And all the parts are not cheap...
Bigger motor to get wheelie back 😆 looks beefy! Buying this kit now for my Bronco. Are there any other decent weight options you know about for the rear axle besides the diff cover? The portal cover weights look the same I suppose. I don’t want to use wheel weights. Nice upload👍
Thanks! On the rear axle you can also install the brass portal gear covers or this ones: www.yeahracing.com/catalog/trx4054-brass-118g-portal-cover-front-rear-2pcs-traxxas-trx4-p-4449.html www.yeahracing.com/catalog/trx4019-brass-front-rear-portal-cover-traxxas-trx4-p-4223.html
Super video 👌 ich habe gerade meinen ersten traxxas Defender gekauft 🥰 also mein erstes RC Uto überhaupt 😅 vorher bur hubschrauber. Könntest du mir eventuell schmier und fett produkte empfehlen?
Danke dir! Ich benutze Fett vom Baumarkt, in der KFZ Abteilung gibt's MoS2 Schmierfette. Und als Spray nicht das normale WD40, besser ein Trockenschmierstoff auf PTFE Basis, da klebt dann kein Dreck dran.
Hai kk saya sangat senang degan vidio anda dan saya sudah subscribe chanel anda, dan menonton smua vidio RC anda. .. saya sangat sekali memiliki mobil RC seperti anda kk.. tapi di Indonesia, sangat sulit mendapat mobil seperti itu.. karna gaji saya di sini di bawah harga RC itu. I love you chanel ❤❤
Here you can see how I do it normally: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rSVdNqd7CIU.html And this is the deluxe edition: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8pUZKu_zJAQ.html
Jetzt würde mich intresieren wie fährt sich das im direkten Vergleich zu einem Serien Bronco? Die ca 1200 Gramm wollen natürlich auch überall rauf geschleppt werden,oder ziehen sich auch mal unter Felsvorsprünge.Ohne direkten Vergleich bin ich immer "erst" etwas skeptisch.
Im Video sieht man ja auch eine Fahrt, die ich oft auch mit dem Serien Fahrzeug gemacht habe. Das zusätzliche Gewicht auf der Vorderachse ist positiv spürbar beim Bergauffahren. Klar nützt es beim Bergabfahren nichts, aber die Vorteile überwiegen die wenigen Nachteile. Aber du hast schon recht, jeder bewertet gut/schlecht oder positiv/negativ anders. Kommt sehr auch auf den persönlichen Fahrstil und die Vorlieben drauf an.
Das stimmt wohl.Ich habe mal versucht (nach dem schwerer machen der Achsportale) ohne angebauten Lenkservo die Lenkung mit der Hand zu betätigen .Huuh da merkt man erst mal was das Servo leisten muß.Ohne ein Minimum 30Kg Servo würde ich den TRX4 so "schwer" nicht mehr im Gelände betreiben wollen.
I installed this yeah racing brass kit. I put on a new servo first and centered the steering. Now my steering is off some and I can not turn my wheels by grabbing the wheels and turning. Seems like it’s binding. The 2 links I took are on correct. Any idea?
Matteo's RC Movies I found it. It was the 2 steering horns one on each side of the portal. I didn’t put lock tight or tighten them. They were moving and binding when I turned. Tightened and lock tight and it’s fine now.
