New Traxxas Scaler - Land Rover Defender 110

[durok]

GPM/Integy = bling for the sake of bling... The styling and colors are horrific, IMHO. They each make a select few items that aren't TOO bad, typically for use in hidden areas of no structural importance.

It's as if they have never seen a real 1:1 designed for actual off-roading use - only rap videos.

BTW - From Online Metals Blog:

"General Mechanical Properties of 6061 Aluminum (T651 Bare)
Tensile Strength – 45,000 psi
Yield Point – 40,000 psi
Brinell Hardness – 95
Elongation at Break – 12%
Shear Strength – 31,000 psi
Thermal Conductivity – 170 W/m-K
Strength to Weight Ratio: 115 kN-m/kg

General Mechanical Properties of 7075 Aluminum (T651)
Tensile Strength – 83,000 psi
Yield Point – 74,000 psi
Brinell Hardness – 150
Elongation at Break – 10%
Shear Strength – 48,000 psi
Thermal Conductivity – 130 W/m-K
Strength to Weight Ratio: 196 kN-m/kg"

The T-ratings are the heat-treated varieties - higher numbers are the strongest/hardest...

I like it, I would love if there was a two door version of it with an actual bed that would be awesome.

That front bumper car bumper.

Yes, but as we know, quality is priceless.

Edit stupid spell check.

HR Racing is pumping out new stuff for the TRX-4, check RPP Hobbies new releases. Brass Portal housings & knuckle weights, loads of other aluminum parts.

Reminds me of the earthroamer off-road camper, almost. More color choices coming, awesome. Still like my gray body.

Waste of money on the scaler shocks from PL. Traxxas' GTX shocks are just as good if not better than them
Also, PL is lucky the outrageously priced Pro-Forge wheels fit the TRX, I'm sure they were having sales issues moving those.. well at least I've never seen them out of stock ANYWHERE.

Sweet, hope somehting more than just green body, I like the green though.

Edit; probably just green and the tx Link module. :/

[clm]

I doubt it, Traxxas is well known for their body swap or repaint special editions... I would rather a nice metallic blue one myself

[Frank211]

New tactical truck???

That is a very complex camo, hard to see the shape of the body! Almost like what full sized auto manufacturers do to hide new models lol

Kinda cool, but I prefer my modded d110. I put a bit of work into the truck bed mod, I liked the d110 body to begin with, I already threw on all the knights 3D bits (minus hinges), and I'm kinda fond of the candy red color it came with. I'm stickin with it!!
