So i've had this one for a couple of months now...

Well, after servicing the entire trx4, and oiling every bearing , i took it out yesterday with the ascender, i drove the ascender and my son drove the landy, after about 20 minutes on the trail, the servo (non stock and with bec) stopped responding, i checked it out and the metal servo horn had become loose, no biggie, we continued but after 5 more minutes, the same thing happened, only this time the motor was hot, checked everything and found out my son had been driving in 2nd gear from the start, needless to say i let the car cool down, and of we went, but after 10 more minutes the car would slow down more and more , so i guess this is my first failure, motor is toast, not traxxas fault btw, just to much mud and water for the titan motor. Sorry for the rant.

Bah! A fail on the trail is a pita. My Titan was replaced at 44 Miles. The motor was still actually doing ok but the ESC was getting glitchy. I had a HW 1080 and Holmes Trailmaster 27t waiting. As for the servo horns I really like the clamping style ones. Much more secure. I think SSD do one? Am using a Axial one which is really a touch too short but nermind. :-)

mmm.. you had the esc fail? because of how erratic the motor was acting i thought motor for sure, i still havent taken it apart, i will look into the esc and report back.

I’d go for the 27t. Still plenty of top end and better crawl speeds. I run this on stock gearing. :-)

I biased as I’m from the UK but I think the Landy looks best. Hehe.

Love the Traxxas Land Rover body. If you like outdoor sport and camping, this is One of the best scale camper you could ever had.

Totally agree with both of ya..but i love my american muscle trucks and cars also, so the bronco trx4 is on it's way to me

[cartronicshn]

After 2 months of waiting i finally received the bronco, initial impression after tearing apart the black bag it came in , this is much lighter than the defender, i will start a new thread for it when i completly unpack it and change the servo . Sorry for the crappy pics, i had to...
