better than Traxxas own video !!! they should hire you next time Matteo !
Wow, thanks for your nice feedback! 😊
yes, yes they should, that was an amazing video.... if nothing else, they should support Matteo, by using it and crediting him for it.... send more traffic to his awesome channel!
Wow again! You guys are awesome with your amazing comments! Thanks so much!
Seamus RBNW lol
You should have known that was sarcasm.
Very well done. Every review of this truck that I've seen only describes it's features. Good idea to actually show what the various functions do on real terrain. Big thumbs up!
Thanks Chris! Glad you liked it! 😊
Hi Matteo, your videos are always very interesting and at a professional
level, but at the same time they are full of the passion you have for
the R/C world.
I think this Traxxas is provided with features that many enthusiasts were waiting for.
I'm curious to see the customizations that some keen enthusiasts will want to do to the body...
Thanks again to share these great videos, and... my Tundra is almost ready...
Thanks Paolo! Glad to hear this from your Tundra, looking forward to see it finished!
This is the best TRX-4 video so far, guess we don`t need any other...First , supersmart with rubber tyre as steering wheel, i must copy that...second, first video that explains the features and show how to use them...you are a true master in making videos and reviewing rc stuff...very well done Matteo, we are lucky to "have you on board"...thumbs up..
It's a great pleasure and motivation for me to get such good comments like yours! I really appreciate it! Thank you so much Jan Erik!
👍❗️Matteo - the best TRX4 Video so far ! Excellent filming and driving + explanation - Great job... Greetings, Dirk
Thanks Dirk! So glad to hear this! 😊
Isgood
As always, yours is the best video out there. Matteo, you have extreme talent when it comes to capturing RC stuff. Keep up the amazing work.
Thanks so much Arthur for this amazing comment! I'm extremely pleased to hear this! 😊
Great enjoyable and informative video, Matteo! I really like the blend of the cinematics and the demonstrations. Thumbs up as always!
Thanks so much! 😊
So, again you do it; displaying the TRX better than anyone else and making me realise this might be the crawler to buy. Excellent video - as always - so thanks and keep doing what you do!
Thank you so much Kristoffer for your excellent feedback! 👍😊 I appreciate it!
This has to be the best RC review period. Very well explained. Like those Portal Axles, that's neat.
Thank you Rick! Glad to hear this! 😊🙏
A wonderful video as usual Matteo! Such great videography, very inspiring for when the SBG gets it's own TRX-4! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much! Always a big pleasure to get so nice feedbacks from you! 😊
Awesome! Extremely well thought out video! Thank you! All the features are explained and demonstrated extremely clear. Also the videography is very excellent!
Thank you so much! Glad you liked the video!
Matteo running a Traxxas, I never thought I'd see the day! Lol!
This truck definitely piqued my interest when it hit the shelves, and your video was informative, and entertaining as always! Thanks for the great review!
Thanks Fil! Yes, Matteo is disloyal to Tamiya... But Tamiya and Traxxas are not competitors: Traxxas slogan is: The fastest in radio control, and Tamiya says no. 1 in quality! 😂
Although I'm primarily a Tamiya owner, I do run several other brands as well. Variety is the spice of life, right?!?!
Thanks again for all the great videos!
Best review of this truck I've seen so far. Big thumbs up!
Thank you so much! I'm very pleased to hear this! 😊
As always you bring rc to life my friend.Your attention to detail is epic,review on the truck in my opinion ;) .
Thanks so much Lee!
My favorite video on the traxxas trx4!!! very informative ! Amazing camera angles!
Thanks Azmi! Glad you liked it! 👍
loved this video and LOL the huge tyre on the controller to steer.
Thanks! It was a spontaneous idea with the tire, but works fine! 😊
I watched this video and it made me buy the TRX-4. It reminded me of the vintage Tamiya promo videos. Nice video, I have watched this a few times
Thanks so much Lee, for your nice feedback! 😊 Hope you have fun with your TRX-4!
This video got me so hyped... I went to my local hobby store and bought one today. They only had one in stock. Great job with the editing and explaining the unique features.
Thank you! Have fun with yours!
Brillant video for sure! Very nice demonstration of everything the truck has to offer. It seems like a pretty nice well thought out truck.
Thanks Jon! Yes it is! 😊
Still enjoy coming back and watching this production. Thanks!
Thanks again for your nice feedback! 🙏 😊
Really one of the best and most informative videos out there, and I've watched a lot !
Wow, thanks! 🙏 ☺️
Super Video !!! Und dann noch die kurzen Infos, was das Auto so besonders macht- super!
Vielen Dank Richard! 😊
Beautifully smooth video! Awesome truck but a little pricey for me. You displayed & tested the features perfectly & simple. Your commentary is always simple & on point! You do excellent work playing with toys, sir! ;)
Thank you so much for your nice feedback! I'm very pleased about it!
Finally I understand that thing with the diff fully, thanks at last!
Thank you! Glad it helped! 👍😊
Matteo, amazing video yet again. You have shown the capability of this model and it really makes me want to buy it!
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Hehehe they told us in the truck driving school, don't drive the whole time with locking differential.
But thanks for the video. It's really nice to see how it works. Big difference between locked and unlocked differential lock.
Thanks Christian! 👍😊
Excellent review Matteo, thanks! I especially liked the unique suspension shot at 8:19 :-)
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Very great and enjoyable video! You demonstrate so well all the features of the TRX4!
Your filming is so nice. Great variety of shots and angle. Music alternates with your explanation and the total is very entertaining.
Congratulations.
Thanks so much for your splendid comment! I really appreciate it! 😊
awesome video ! I buy 99% vintage classics, but this is one I will put in the collection without hesitation.
Thanks Donovan! 👍
great video as usual!! Amazing camera angles and perspective! great scenery!! I am very interested in getting one of those TRX-4s.
Thank you Hank! 😊
Good video. I am glad you mentioned covering air holes in the wheels for water driving. Great point and I think everyone usually learns the hard way.
Thanks for your good feedback! 🙏😊
Really great video! Nice introduction to this model and great editing too. Thank you.
Thanks so much Vladislav! 🙏🙏😊😊
I love the clear explanations and corresponding demonstrations. Great job.
Thanks so much for your nice feedback! 😊
Terrific review and...holy cow...the cinematography is amazing! Great video, sir.
Thanks so much Arthur! 🙏😊
Fantastic video, I learned more from this than I did from Traxxas's own promo video.... well done, very well done
WOW! What a great feedback! 🙏🙏 Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! 👍😊

Perfektes Super Video vom neuen TRX-4 Defender , Danke fürs Posten !! Für mich diee Kauf Entscheidung ..
Viele Dank! Freut mi!
I'm really impressed with this. Traxxas is still innovating, and considering the level of technology that goes into their trucks, they're not too expensive. For example, your Toyota Bruiser has great technology. Really just scaled down from real trucks, with its 3-speed gearbox and locking diffs, but it is VERY expensive, if we can even find it. This one is a bit smaller, but has a useful two speed gearbox with remote locking diffs and portal axles, for less than half the price. (AND it's widely available) Traxxas is thinking outside the box.
Years ago, they innovated with the lay-down shock arrangement of the Revo. It made for a lot of easy tuning options. They then carried it over to the E-Revo, and adapted a dual brushed motor setup. Then, made a brushless version. (and found out the drive train was not quite strong enough for all that power with sloppy driving)
They shocked us all again with the Summit, with its two speed gearbox, remote locking diffs, proper built-in LED lighting, and even the body is rugged enough. Not some disposable stamped piece of clear polycarbonate. I thought for awhile that they were done.
Then, the XO-1 speed car. OK, NOW done for awhile, surely.
Nope, X-Maxx came out. I had to have one. The first generation one was lacking something and needed a sloppy resistor modification in order not to start fires when driven hard on 6S. Again, it has the tough body, and this time, it didn't even need body clips!
I got away from the hobby for a couple years, and when I came back, I see they came out with the TRX-4, which has some features from the Summit. Also, the Maxx, replacing the old easily-broken E-Maxx.
Add to this good parts support and customer service (at least in the USA) and it is easy to justify the slightly higher pricing, compared to the also-excellent Kyosho.
These days, Tamiya seems to be just coming out with new bodies to create sales; not really innovating any more. Just looking for easy cash grabs. I bet their vintage models sell better than the modern ones. I'm not even fanatical, and I bought a Brat, two Lunch Boxes, and I'm now thinking about a Pajero. The more I think on it though, the more I think the TRX-4 is the one I should get. Why?
Pajero locally is $216.
No radio. Luckily I have a spare receiver for my expensive Futaba FASST radio.
No ball bearings. That is a bad thing to leave out on a $216 kit.
No battery; not sure my 2S 5Ah stick packs will work with it.
Pajero is a trail truck, no crawling pretensions, so the TRX-4 can do everything the Pajero can do except maybe be scale. AND it can do some crawling, AND it has good parts support.
In short, Traxxas is doing things that make me proud to be American, and there's not too many of them, these days. :-\
Thanks Jeremy for your extensive comment! I agree, Traxxas really does a very good job! And I have a lot of fun with my TRX-4, one of my favorite truck! 👍😊
Thank you for a beautifully shot and edited video as always from you, Matteo! Always relaxing to watch, and informative demonstration of all the features.
I like to build my rc cars, but he Traxxas TRX-4 Defender is the first RTR I would like to buy. It looks just right out of the box. Clear windows, so a interior and a driver could be added would be perfect for the scale enthusiast, but I am sure it will be aftermarket options available soon.
Nice to see the chassis in action, well done by Traxxas with trailing arms and Panhard rod made from gunmetal finished steel, and generous wheeltravel make it look very realistic when it climb rocks and other obstacles. Impressive with lockable differensials and easy to select with a switch. With two speed gearbox and cruise control, I think it is well worth the price, and made ready for led lights too.
I am sure it would look spectacular shot in the evening with all the lights on (asking you to make a night video please) :) .
This is a really good entry from Traxxas into the scale trail truck segment, looks very nice, and a exellent allrounder for on road, off road, trail driving, and as a crawler.
Cheers.
Thank you very much for your splendid comment! I agree 100% with your words. Traxxas offers a clear polycarbonate body (I've already ordered) and a set of LED lights. So, I'll can paint it on my choice with clear windows. And for sure I'll make a video of it with the lights and night part. 👍😊
Good job as usual. Very interesting review of this Traxxas.
Thank you!
One of my favorite rc channels since I started on this hobby. 👍
Glad to hear this! Thanks so much! 👍😊
Great review, and some skillful camera work. Nice video!
Thanks! 😊
Good showing of the benefits of locked and open diffs. Alternatively, my crawler can stop powering either axle so when I lock the rear I can pivot on my rear tires and turn much sharper!
Thanks Joel. Yes this works also, but not so scale at all....😊
I have bought my Trx4 finally!
I'm very satisfied with my Land Rover. Now my wife uses the Traxxas Telluride and I drive the Land Rover Defender (Trx4). A lot of fun........
Glad to hear this! RC fun together is the best! 👍😄
Matteo's RC Movies
Bad news. My servo is out. Is a very very sad situation ayer only 3 days of usage!!!. In a soft grass park.
I've heard comments about this great great weakness of all Trx4 but AFTER sale. Is unbelievable that Traxxas continue offering a model with so gigantic problem and they dont make something really structural and substantial to solve this enormous fail
TRAXXAS MUST Stop THE SALE OF this model until to fix it.
I dont know what to do. I'll very sad and furious
No, of course is there not a structural or gigantic problem. In mine is still the first servo and it works well over months now. And I drive it a lot! Sure it's possible to have a bad servo, but this is the same from every brand. Cool down, and claim warranty from Traxxas.
Your video is better than other !!! :)
Thanks! 😊
complimenti sinceri, ammirazione ed anche un po' di sana invidia!
The quality of the video is well done! That is one AMAZING RC truck. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for your fine comment! 😊🙏
another master piece video by mateo thanks for the video. so inspiring.👍
Thanks Erwan! 😊
OMG now I want something that I didn't know exist a couple of minutes ago
That's good! Soon they release a gorgeous Ford Bronco on the same chassis with the same features! traxxas.com/products/landing/bronco/

Thx, but I would go for the Defender anyway :-)
This is the best explanation video of trx4 i ever seen.. very2 clear my man 👍 5 star rating for this video ⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟🌟
Thanks a lot for your nice feedback! 🙏😊😊
Nice video showing all the features.
Thanks Captain! 😊
Stunning work! Amazing montage and camera moves! Really awesome!
Thanks for your nice feedback!
Some of the very best RC videos on CZcams! Yet another hit, with an awesome new truck!
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Damn.. this video so details what it can do, good job!!!
Thanks Andy!
This is an awesome looking scale vehicle. Very nice details.
Thanks Stephan! 😊
Super Video das Auto ist einfach klasse ich freue mich drauf ihn mal live zu sehen🤠
Danke Ueli! Ja wirst es dann sicher mal sehen...
Ein tolles Review Matteo!
Der Traxxas macht einen sehr guten Eindruck!
Daumen hoch! 👍 😃
Vielen Dank Maurice! Ja, der Eindruck bestätigt sich im Gelände!
Brilliant and informative as always. Traxxas should use this! I am still sure you have more than two hands, your videos are wonderful.
Thanks so much Martin! Do you say I am a mutant? 😂
Not a mutant . . . brilliant :-)
Great TRX-4 , excellent run !!
Merci Sator! 😊
Great filming angles and quality KEEP IT UP!!!
Thanks! 😊
For the money they're asking, you'd think it would have a brushless motor or some metal parts. But it is really sharp looking. Great video as always, Matteo!
Thanks Ignus! In my opinion the price is not too much for what you get. The quality is excellent!
Another Great video my friend !! 🎬 👍👍
Congratulations..... 👏👏
Thanks Chris! 😊
mega cool cars :-)
Thanks!
I agree wholeheartedly with anything rc´s comment, Matteo. Your production values exceed those seen in many professionally made rc videos. This video is superb, with excellent demonstrations of the locking diffs´ advantages and of the benefits of open diffs as well as the way you showcased the Traxxas´ two-speed gearbox and portal axles. Then there are the beautifully composed static-camera shots and the exquisite tracking footage, all coming together to set the standard other CZcamsrs can only hope to strive towards : )
Always a great pleasure to read your splendid comments Del! Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! 😍 😊
Haii
You are amazing man , keep posting these fantastic videos.
Thanks so much for your great feedback! 🙏😊
Awesome video - best production quality I have seen demonstrating this vehicle. Would love to see a "making of" some time soon - I'm sure many many others would benefit from learning from your techniques.
Thank you so much for your awesome comment Neil! I really appreciate it! Maybe sometime I find time to do this! 👍😊
Awesome man! love the red version it looks sharp! Good luck with her!....And those waters are looking great in the warmer weather! =)
Thanks Steve! Yes, sometimes it's possible to swim for a refreshment. (And fishing for you 😊)
=) enjoy your new truck it's a BEAUTY! =)
Keep it up Matteo! Good job again!
Thanks Amando! I'll try my best! 👍😊
Another excellent video of a nice RC truck!
Thanks Robert!
It's the best test of trx4 👍👍 thx for this video 🙂

Thanks Derek! Glad you liked it! 👍
Nagyon jó videókat csinálsz,még sokk ilyet :)
Köszönjük!
Look what you make me do Matteo, you make me buyink one 😂 Excellent video!
Thanks! That's good!
Hi Matteo, great video as always. The TRX-4 is a new competitor to win, brings many benefits and good performance. For my taste would have been a little more steel or aluminum in the details and components of the TRX-4. But overall I think it's an excellent choice this year.
Yes, I agree! But as RTR it is very good. And I think many option parts will be released in the future! Thanks for your feedback!
Super Testvideo! Top gemacht, Matteo 👌
Vielen Dank! 😊
The most informative video, thank you👍🏼
Thanks for your good feedback! 😊
I like the way you did your video review.
Thanks Antonio!
Wieder ein super Video!👍👍
Danke Werner!
saw it In person and wow it's BIG 👌
Wie Immer. Top Video. Danke
Vielen Dank!
another great rc by traxxas I've owned a t-maxx and still have original revo and really like them. I see they have repurposed the tx for the gears.
I liked the explanation on the diffs I know why my bruiser has bad turning/steering atm seeing I've locked the diffs.
a excellent video as per usual
Thank you so much madtopp! Glad to hear you liked it!
