Order the TRX4M Defender Here Amain: www.avantlink.... We Installed 5 must upgrades and added more scale to the Traxxas Trx4 defender and run it on the mini crawler course. #traxxas #trx4m #rccrawler
@@Joercgarage can you do a step by step on the installation of the brass i got the parts but have no idea how to install them so i can take it to Markham park
@@andresmarin1261 a step by step would be kind of long so I try to address the important stuff in the video most of the brass parts is just remove and add brass take it slow and use existing hardware and your going to be ok
Those are some awesome mods for this little rc, adding extra weight always a must to stay glued to the course, I'm all about the cosmetics for mine as cant afford all those fancy extras! Great video though!
So im new to the hobby, currently building a SCX24 Gladiator. I live like 15 minutes away from Markham Park! Thats a really great course ! Cool build maybe ill see you around there.
Nice upgrades I just did almost the same upgrades on my Defender M. I’m very happy with the Treal wheels. I have all red metal links & steering links. Also the diff covers the weight definitely helps it I just need to get the low gear motor trans combo. I pulled the scale stuff off the rear & placed it on top in the basket. I have the Injora sticky compound tires. So far so good.
Still torn for the next upgrade btwn going furitek brushless or the Holmes hobby 66t with low range gear set I would like to keep my pro scale light kit so leaning Holmes hobby thanks for the info👊🏻
What state is your park in? Wanting to have my city to build courses like this and a drag strip. Any advice would help me to approach the city council. Great video. I’m a new subscriber
Thanks for the support 👊🏻it’s in Florida to be honest I’m not sure how it works its my local park by me and I’m just happy it has a crawler course for my 1/10 and mini crawlers
Any problems with your stock servo after upgrades? I'm trying to figure out what I want to try to use as a replacement when mine goes. Ill bet the plastic gears go with the metal drive shafts. I can't seem to find OD/UD for it or metal crawling gears.
@@Joercgarage Right on! I ended up using an Eco power 640T to replace the stock one. Had to file a little to fit into my brass mount. Going to take it up to the track soon.
Best upgrade is a new lightweight body! Just keep the defender body for scale looks. The bronco body is waaaay better for crawling if you want a little balance between performance and scale
@@Joercgarage they can still perform great while looking crazy scale but just to eek out those hard lines 😈 Sometimes I just run mine without a body at all 🤷🏼♂️
I have done the same thing with the injora beedlock rims.But you can make the stock tires fit on them.if you cut the center ring down to 5/16 wide you will be able to lock the outer rims together.i wanted to save the tires from the bronco i had a spare set to mess with.they workd out well.looks grate what you have done so far.
Nice video you win a suscriber
Thanks for the support 👊🏻
Thanks for the ideas! We’ve had our TRX4M for four days, and my son broke the driveshaft on the second day lol. So that was our first upgrade.
Thanks for watching 🙌🏻
Awesome vid great tips m4 is a must have to any collection.
Thanks yes sir it is a must have 1/18 for any collection
Just got my first RC Thanks so much for the instructional video. The first upgrade I did was the Light kit. I'M HOOKED!!
Nice next add some brass weights down low u won’t regrets it….

Looks fantastic and gets around great now.👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you 👍🏻👊🏻
Interesting stuff - the extra weight makes a huge difference to climbing performance! I guess I'll be looking at what's on offer now!😄
The brass weight makes a nice difference

Thank you for the support I got some stuff or order for the next one 👊🏻
@@Joercgarage you're welcome, I look forward to the next upload!

Nice yeah the mini course is a little under construction At
The moment needs a little refresh of sorts the 1/10 scale is still really good

Nice my next few upgrades will be the Holmes hobbies 66 t motor and low range gear set and a little bit more brass and I’m good to go👊🏻
Thank you for this it’s given me some ideas 🇬🇧
That defender is prob gonna be my next build. I love how it looks. Id like to see the red and green side by side
The trx4m defender is a great platform to build you won’t be disappointed
Great intro.
Honestly though these rigs run like a 1/10 scale right out of the box. Enjoy.
Keep the shiny side up. 😉
I was your 1000th sub great channel!
Thank you 👍🏻
cool vid, my friend!! big like!! 👍👍👍
Thank you 👍🏻
Servo upgrade absolute must
Agreed👍🏻
I enjoyed the video.
It's the same car as mine.
Thanks🙌🏻
1k bro!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yes finally 👊🏻
I just picked up a grey one.
nice the grey to me is the best color I wanted it but they didn't have it when I picked up mine
Just an FYI. Lower turn motors are faster. Not slower. A 66 turn will be faster than stock.

No problems yet but the servo is not great I will be upgrading eventually..

Mine went in 4 hours of buying the thing

Yeah it’s a delicate balance btwn scale and performance might have to pick up a bronco in the future

Can you write the list of parts you changed? 😅
The video explains all my parts changed and all are available on Amazon to much to list here brother thanks for stopping by 👊🏻
Is that course for 1/10 scale and 1/18? Markham park is near me. Just wondering
they have both currently the small scale rock course is in a little rough shape at the moment.
hi, can you put a sound module on that?
Not the trx4m but I have one on my 1/10 trx
I need a link to them wheels and tires!
Got both of them on Amazon treal wheels and injora tires
@Joercgarage I found a set that look similar but they have all the screws around the outer edge I cant find a set that look this clean
@@justin00ish treal concave six spoke type D
Where do you find all this ?
Amazon
Markem park

Good to know … but I really like my injora tires they are a super soft compound..
