Thanks! I’m glad it turned out that shade. The color was Tamiya green and I tried to darken it up with black. I take it the plastic bumper mounts and crossmembers are fine versus Aluminum. They also have brass. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: What did you do to your TRX-4 today? Quote:
Yeah, I stuck with plastic as they're up a bit high, and the plastic is light. Plus, it's not like they see a ton of strain or abuse. Personally, I wouldn't go brass above the axle. |

Awesome thanks! Gonna start small with Samix brass hexes, and shock bottoms. Maybe even the shock/panhard mount for the diffs. Trying to stay budget. I’d like to get a Bronco RTR come Xmas. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: What did you do to your TRX-4 today? Quote:
I think that's a good budget plan. I went full pop on all the Samix brass, including the scale rotors and calipers. It definitely "plants" the rig. Having said that, there's something to be said for a lighter rig as well. I've been testing and tuning on my Barrage/Axial hybrid I built up. It's the lightest rig I own, and with the narrow and light Ridgecrest body and Pitbulls, it climbs rocks like a goat. |

I could see how easy it is to go crazy, but like the idea working stock up, to know where you came from and what’s working better. I’d like to try and keep this one lighter and maybe more frugal. I toyed with getting the two speed transmission for this, but I may not do it especially since I’m going to get the bronco down the line. I would like to keep the rack, even though it makes it more too heavy, but I like is so much. Took off the rotopax to lose some weight though lol. Track board stay, they weigh nothing. Same with the bumpers, going to try and work with them a little longer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: What did you do to your TRX-4 today? I went from the HW1080/HH Trailmaster Sport 550 21T combo to the Mamba Monster X/1406 Slate 3800KV, on stock 11T it was great, but when I changed it to a 9T the low speed control was amazing! I tried 6S and couldn’t even get full throttle without losing control. I need a large parking lot to give it another go. I need more ideas, really want to go hardbody LC70 or Team Raffee Defender 110. https://i.imgur.com/dC5yoAh_d.jpg?ma...idelity=medium https://i.imgur.com/yEAzVlT_d.jpg?ma...idelity=medium |

And I'm just waiting for the Flysky nb4 and their 8ch receivers so I can switch from the original setup on that end as well. |
Re: What did you do to your TRX-4 today? Bought my first TRX4 today! Red and black Blazer. Picked up a smaller 3s battery and deans plugs to solder on when I go home. I already have a Redcat Gen 8 and Everest 10. |
Re: What did you do to your TRX-4 today? 1 Attachment(s) Talk about 10lbs of sh-- in a 5lb sack!:shock: Installed rock lights today. Found these on EBAY with multiple color selections available (I went with white) and no voltage step down required.($15 shipped) Anyway, I've got a bit of wiring in this rig and a bit more to come as I still need to do headlights and taillights for the FJ body. I've got everything routed as clean as possible, but the rock lights were tough as they're daisy-chained. |

Thanks smog - I think it's about as well managed as possible. There's a HeyOk winch controller in there, and then a HeyOk 1 x 5 splitter for all the lighting duties. I just spliced in a simple on/off slide switch to power them on or off."thumbsup" |
What did you do to your TRX-4 today? Made a mock-up of the rubber fender extenders. They were way too heavy. Took some Lexan from a body trim, painted them, and bedliner coated. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...701d476575.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ee8f7e6f2c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...3527a857e4.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...77a878a15b.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: What did you do to your TRX-4 today? Sharpied some line detail and sanded the black off the windows on the Post Apocalyptic Hot Boxed Rasta Rig. Yellow aluminum tow shackles front and back. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...ff359912_c.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...97d6e939_c.jpg Holmes hobbies motor https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...a242e34b_c.jpg Same rig/frame as the Yellow jeep body, just swaping body and big wheels...this setup has an advantage through the chunky boulders and tall ledges, where the yellow jeep setup has an advantage at steep technical lines Pretty funny the little Hot Racing tow shackles cost more then the Holmes Hobbies motor. :mrgreen: Im liking the HH motor, at the cost it was worth a try... notice a slight difference between the stock Traxxas Titan motor, but nothing major...maybe a bit more precise feeling if i were to describe it? If anything its nice to have a spare motor. |

With the sanded windows, it looks like Cheech and Chong might be driving it!:lmao: |
Re: What did you do to your TRX-4 today? 1 Attachment(s) Just a quick shot of her lit up after I got the new rock lights installed. "thumbsup" Still waiting on the headlights and taillights. :roll: |
