Hello. I upload helpful and entertaining videos about mini/micro scale crawlers. Thanks for checking out my channel!
Custom Axial SCX24 B-17 Betty Build
This is part 1 of building my custom version of the Axial SCX24 B-17 Betty. I show you everything from applying the Tamiya PS-46 paint to installing the Hot Racing Aluminum Axle Housing, Brass Knuckles, Brass Diff Cover, Brass Wheel Hubs, and Emax Digital Servo. I use the RC4WD Black Rhino Armory 1.0" Internal Beadlock Wheels and RC4WD BFGoodrich T/A KR3 1.0" Tires for this build. I plan on making more videos doing additional modifications to this truck, so subscribe if you'd like to follow along.

Traxxas TRX-4M has New Proprietary Battery Connector
zhlédnutí 7KPřed rokem
The Traxxas TRX-4M battery connector is different than other batteries. It is 100% proprietary to the TRX-4M. The 2S battery connector isn't shared with any other Traxxas vehicle. I talk about the problems this creates in the video.

Hi, I have a question, do you use foam tire inserts? Traxxas offers soft and hard, but I don't know whether to spend money on it and which one to choose. can you advise me please
I am always looking for a deal on a betty! I highly suggest the hot racing steering fix link. Great looking build!
Brilliant work. I want to build one similar.
Thanks! I would love to see a pic if you do end up building one
I just bought the bronco and after two charges the damn thing won’t power the car anymore. The charger stays steady green but when I plug into the receiver , the receiver comes on red, the. Green upon turning on my remote, wheels align , then it powers off. So frustrating.
Love the wheels dude great video
Very good looking truck. Love it. 👍👍
Thanks for the bumper idea. My approach was to moved the whole thing inside the body. I drilled away the headlights from the body and attached the bumper to the chassis to be able to open the body without disconnecting the lights. It just required a bit of slightly bent aluminum to move the lights a bit more forward.
Great content💪🏻
Great video, thanks. I currently have stock gears but have low speed ones to fit. Still debating if i want to swap them out as i enjoy trail running as much as crawling. Not sure if low gears will make it too slow though. Regarding your defender rolling. I put 10mm wheel extenders on mine. Reduced the amount of rollovers i had considerably 👍
Kick ass! The proportions of the body/cage, matched with those wheels and tires.... perfection!
Love the build but idk if id call all out build at lest to me the mods u did is what i call Bear minimum its what these thing need to just drive ok A all out build should have next to nuthing stock should be more or less be gound up build Thats gust my dum Opinion tho u call your build what u like 😎👍
Yeah you’re probably right. It’s an all out aesthetic build for my skill level, but that just doesn’t sound as good 😂 There’s also more to come for the little truck as soon as I get motivated to make another video
Great job on the Betty! It’s much nicer to have a 1 of 1 isn’t it?!
Thanks! For sure! I’m super happy with how it came out
That turned out AMAZING! Looks killer! The color change paint worked out great! Nice work!
Yeah it did! That cage is fire!!
Thanks! I’m very happy with how well everything went together
Where did you get that big b17 betty sticker?
Thank you. Just what I wanted to know. Definitely help me make my decision. Great video. Love the time stamps.
Looks AWESOME!!! I did a similar build on one of my Betty's!!! The rear cage looks sick!!!🤘🤘🤘 Subbed
Thanks!
I think the Method wheels look awesome, plus the heavy brass ring is fantastic.
take a mild rototool whisk to the insides of the rings, itll buy ya jusnuff space to ease a possible struggle w/thicker rubber tyres.
My experience with this car so far... Batteries are cheap so bought a couple extras Charging is very quick 1 battery typically lasts around 1hr on rough terrain
Solder can’t afforder 😞
Idk what I’m doing wrong by my servo keeps steering to the left . By itself
use a 1mm drill bit(screws are 1.3mm hex), harbor freight sells a kit with 3 in them
Thank you
Thank you ❤
I had trouble with getting it together, returned an got better rims plus my lug will tighten up without hit the other screws,instead of a 4 pc.wheel ,I got a 3pc. By DJCRAWLER,there real nice wheels easy to put together
you might of removed 1 gram by taking plugs off but you also added about that in solder.. just saying
Get some real tools, faster and more precise...
Biggest pain in the Butt!
Does the transmission assembly come with bearings or bushings?
Bushings
Fast is fun but slow looks better on video
Being a bronco owner i think bronco looks better
Nice job , I put that emax servo in my trx4m , it works great and fits the stock servo mount with just a little bit of grinding
All i did was shave my fenders and got bigger tires and it's a night and day difference in how it performes.
Just recently bought one and me and my boy love it.
Thank you for the explanation. I'm new to the hobby and appreciate all the instructional videos
I have two new trx4m The batteries colapsed after The first loading i order than two more replacing batteries, and after The first loading theycolapsed also. Now i dont have any batteries to drive my rc cars. These are The worst batteries i ve ever used. Shame on you Traxxas!
Great vídeo and review 👌
The licensing is the big cost my guess. They sure are nice
Thank you, nice job.
czcams.com/video/1PejOeDTCXw/video.html. Here’s a link to the video if you want to check it man.
Theire are new adapters made now by a few different people where you can run other type batteries in them now. I’m gonna order a adapter that will let you use any 2s lipo with balance port.
Thanks 👍
They have videos on how to make a adaptor cable on CZcams, I did it for my other Traxxas cars and will do it on this too, just need a 3 wire balance cable
Wow! These take tremendous amounts of patience. One took me like 30 minutes. Thanks for the tips!👍🍻
Yeah dude, the battery charger SUUUUUCKS!! It doesn't let you know that the battery is charging nor does it let you know that it's done charging, like...how the hell are you suppose to know this shit?! 🤦🏼♂️ Yeah man, hopefully they come out with a better charger for this battery!
Dude. I love you thanks so much!
Muy inspirador. Gracias por tus consejos!
Naic rc traxxsas.. Tambah ganteng.. 👍👍
