| -VIDS- Traxxas TRX-4 Fun Adventures and Tests
So far I'm in love, still trying to dial in suspension, start adding accessories, getting used to the truck before going out into the wild. Please enjoy, have a bunch of accessories on the way can't wait!! Testing out suspension, flexing it to the max. |

Few different angles of the truck with a camera slider, tires and wheels are the obvious change, but there will be more change coming ) |

Here is the TRX-4 on the home course i made, im not going to lie, it had a harder time climbing the bricks hill at the start, the battery is mounted on the center, compared to the UPS truck SCX10 i have the battery mounted on the front. I have to figure out a way to mounte the battery tray or just the battery more on the front of the vehicle for better front tire grab on the climbs. Last edited by nickt916; 07-03-2017 at 09:08 PM. |

Crawl Climb Test, UPS Axial SCX10 vs Traxxas TRX-4 Comparison, i like them both, Axial feels lighter and not so top heavy, the TRX-4 feels heavier over all and more top heavy as well, but its easier to crawl slower and be more precise. I feel more confident with the Axial, but TRX-4 feels more realistic sorta, i like them both in different ways, but leaning towards TRX-4 more. I do want to try running a 35T motor on the TRX4 and mount the battery more towards the front and see how it improves etc...enjoy the comparison. |

Testing out the stick cam in the wild, it makes the TRX4 Even more top heavy, had to adjust suspension springs, will likely do a carbon fiber stick in the future, but so far it's been working just fine, video from the cam itself coming up, still editing those, lots of feet in the videos lol |

Part 2 from day 1 camping by the ocean, with little more crawl action. With the stick it makes it more challenging crawling making it more top heavy, but it's still very enjoyable. |

The San Dunes of death!!, Trying to get out was fun, obviously these tires are not best for the sand, but it was fun trying to get myself out. |

You might be one of the few people that could actually use a sand ladder sometimes |

Here are some failed climbing attempts, im trying to place the battery more to the front to see if that will benefit the climb and provide more front tires grip. |

Sadly not having 4 arms to operate both at the same time, but it was still fun to make, The drone show the amazing location and the cliffs and size, The stick camera mounted on the TRX4 provides an awesome close up view of the area and then me trying to operated the truck while recording at the same time shows some of the slightly dangerous spots of the location. One of the best experiences i had to date, cant wait to go back to play there more |
