Axial Capra 1.9 4WS Edition: Steer with all four wheels!

Very cool to check out the new 1/10 Capra 1.9 4WS "Four Wheel Steer" Ready-to-Run Trail Buggy. Being able to steer with both front and rear wheels adds a whole new element to RC crawling, taking an already capable rig to the next level. In this video, we unbox it, talk about the features (including what's changed from the previous RTR), and trail it on a local mtb trail! Takes some getting used to the rear steering controls, but I got the hang of it pretty quickly.

I'm pretty amazed at how fun the rear wheel steering is and how capable it made this little rig. From the super tight turning radius, to keeping the rear uphill while side hilling, and being able to work the back end side to side while working features make it a blast to drive. It also adds that extra level of complexity as it's something else for you to think about while crawling.

[@RCGirl]

Thanks for being the stunt driver

[@wgmainline9812]

Just when I thought I'd bought my last RC for a while here goes another one I just have to have!!! 😂 All the good features in one rig!!! Thanks for the great review!!!

[@westdesertwheeler2666]

I’ve had a ton of fun with my custom 4WS Capra. Great video, I definitely like your style videos. Keep it up 🤙🏼

[@lifewithcarter9614]

@Dave N he has a custom one that he made. It was originally just a 4wd and not a 4ws one but he switched out the rear axle to make it 4ws. His is the dark green and black Capra.

[@fishtailfistscale8362]

Enjoy that your verbal portion is very precise to the details and points. Trail footage was really good. Location was quite pleasing to see the rig traverse. 5 more mins of the trail couldn’t hurt IMO. Keep up the quality content. 🎥🏆🤝🤙

[@echobeefpv8530]

Sweet RTR !! Great review as always, Thanks. I'll be checking it out further, as I've been into crawlers now for quite a while. I have 3 SCX24's and one Redcat Gen 8 Axe that needs a brother !!

[@evans9825]

Excellent detailed product info for sure! Thank you!

[@lazyman1011]

First time on your channel. Even if I already know nearly every detail of the car, your video and nice to follow speach is like the icing on the cake. Some really nice and smooth shots also help, and I don’t miss going to the hobby shop to have a closer look.

[@jjshobbypower9091]

Very nice!! For a already very capable rig it has just gone to a whole new level. 😊👍🏼

[@loose_nuts_are_faster]

Great videos! I enjoy how likeable and relatable you are as a fellow hobbyist.

[@SlavaRC]

Very cool Capra, awesome video my friend!)🤩💥💯👍👏

[@edsadventures3575]

It’s insane. I just picked one up, the Currie edition with the red cage. It is so fun and so good on the rocks!

[@RTmadnesstoo]

Another new rig and another great video! I like the new color. I wonder if they will bring out a kit? I've seen most of your videos now but the best is when you were driving the full size crawler. Thanks for all your detailed reviews.

[@rcpete7055]

The Red frame of the one on the Box looks pretty Awesome hey? Rc Girl 👍👍😄💪🤘 Always a good time ✨

[@chaplinj6512]

I plan on picking one up. I am concerned about that dif leakage you pointed out however. Great informative video RC girl.

[@pandacrawler6x6]

Great Review! THK's for the Share!

[@RC4X4]

Great review. These Capra's are very cool. I got both colors and changed the wheels to aluminum. Thinking of doing a custom one with the blue wheels I have.

[@nemdrc5386]

Great content as always! I just picked up the same rig yesterday and have the same led issue (Exactly the same).

[@a-b4172]

That’s pretty cool you got to drive a real one. Great little rig!!

[@RickyD1968]

Awesome Trail Buggy !!!

[@fishnrc294]

Great review & look. I’m due for a new RC & I’ve looked at this rig but have been somewhat skeptical about buying an Axial in general. I’ve been wanted to buy one tho because the Axial SCX 24 was my first RC & the one that started me out. I have mostly 1:10 scale crawlers now & didn’t touch the SCX24 for months. Just recently I’ve taken it back out & man that thing is so fun. Of course I’ve upgraded darn near everything in RC style. Im paying close attention to all the reviews & comments on the new Capra. My first though is ok I can get the Danshee for $120 & & for that price could still upgrade & be way under the price of the Capra. But sometimes you just gotta go big! Im slowly moving in that direction & you definitely put a good spin on it. And of course the RC is the one that did the work & performed & looked awesome. I love that it comes with lights. The wheels are already turning in my head & thinking ok first thing metal bead locks 🤔. Here we go on another RC adventure!

[@BC-rc]

Super nice trail to crawl on too

[@Tigercatflyboy]

Awesome buggy, great review, this is my next rc car.

[@RCGirl]

It's a fun one. 👌🏼

[@andrewrichey7374]

Pretty awesome, appreciate you sharing RC girl. Rear steering yeah that’s pretty awesome catch on the next one

[@BC-rc]

I saw that video! How cool that must have been

[@jdsrcs8061]

Hell YEA!!! I do like the new colors!!! The coolest thing is that she already marked her territory!!!!😆😆😆

[@dank3823]

That thing is pretty sick. Poop chute is a perfect spot to test as well.

[@rcstories_ca]

Great video as always. Thanks. Do I need another Capra? No. Do I still want one? Heck yeah.

[@AlecLangton]

Can’t wait to pick mine up and learn how to drive all over again with rear steer!

[@RCGirl]

Yeah it took some getting used to!

[@SmittyOne883]

I look forward to the follow-up videos of the Capra 4WS 😁

[@domirc5474]

very cool....was considering one of the capras in kit form, but I kinda dig this...."poop chute" lol nice! I'm interested in your review of the dx5 pro over your rugged, I'm hoping you do a comparison..

Great video from a beautiful young lady. I am definitely gonna grab me one of the Currie edition. I’ve not had a Capra so this will be the first had the ryft it was just not durable enough. I am a little bummed axial didn’t come out with something new their developmental team need to get on the ball but still pretty cool rc.

[@jeeplivion]

Just converted my kit to 4ws can't wait to flex it

[@osbaldoiturrino6643]

Thank you RC girl that was pretty amazing thanks again 👍👍

[@wordreet]

Well I'm surprised you haven't tried the $99 Danchee Ridgerock 4Ws rig. It's surprisingly capable out of the box for that price. And a few mods later it's a few steps better!

[@BangForYourBuckRc]

Couldn’t agree more! Very capable with all the same steering capabilities for a lot less money. I love mine,and their totally upgradable too! I’m sure this Capra is good, but the ridgerock definitely is worth attention! Stills well done video RC girl!👊🏼🤗🍻

[@OGs_Playground]

Is this where we're meeting for the Ridgerock Love Fest??? I love my Ridgerock and am shocked that the Capra can't touch its steering functionality. Now if Redcat could just give us a Pro version so people take us seriously. Lol

[@BangForYourBuckRc]

@@OGs_Playground you know what? You are very much onto something!!!🧐🤔👊🏼🤗🍻

[@wordreet]

@@OGs_Playground I hear you, but I also kind of understand the reason why Axial went this route. Having just two switched rates for the rear steer, is sufficient for most situations. Though it will marginally reduce that truck's capability against proportional in a competition scenario.

[@OGs_Playground]

@@wordreet In that case it should sufficiently reduced the cost. For that price I want it all. Not half.

[@dutchloveRC]

nice score ; )

[@BennyTygohome]

That's rad!

[@RenoLaringo]

Thank you for the nice presentation ! I keep on hearing and Reading complaints about the gear ratio beeing too small (not a smooth enough throttle control and virtually no ''creeping'' possibility). What's your take on that? Have a great yr 2023!

[@BlueDually4x4]

Four wheel steer can get you out of some tricky spots, or make it worse. I prefer it over dig myself.

[@MAGICFLY02]

Battery compartment is pretty tight, I use the ZEE PREMIUM SERIES 4200mah 120c batteries in mine. They fit just fine.

[@brianterrell1496]

Love your vids.

[@juliodc1231]

The transmitter is a little disappointing, I figured they would have a better set up. At least something similar to the flysky gt5 where it has preset selectable steering modes. But I have my rear steering on my channel 5 so I have complete independent control of the rear servo

[@gwpattrick]

Nice I might get one. I need a Christmas gift

[@uncreate10]

Have you put the hobbywing 2 in 1 motor in the axial capria 4ws yet trying to figure out what I need to do to make it work.

[@ICanDoItMyself]

I didn't find any of your videos on the Spektrum motor or transmitter upgrade for the Capra....?

[@donharsh5469]

Awesome RC Girl I like it sweet and enjoying and watching now 👍👍👍👍👍👍😎👌❤️ awesome video too

[@Charlieoil]

You got skills. Is there a way to steer all 4 wheels from the main steering wheel without using the side switch?

[@Charlieoil]

I have a 2300kv fusion pro in a couple of my crawlers. Is there an advantage to a lower kv like the 1400 kv you mentioned???

[@Dean_Designs_RC]

I’m a little bummed, this was the first thing I did to my Capra. However I like the way this 4WS is controlled better than mine, but that could just be my DX5 features. Great vid Hayley!

[@RCGirl]

This is the lazy man's edition. 😂 Brad also shared some vids on how to set it up in a DX5 (not sure how you programmed yours) kzbin.info/www/bejne/npXPe3lmnMqNq5I

[@Dean_Designs_RC]

@@RCGirl I’ll check it out! I have the DX5 before the rugged was released and it has a 4WS mixing profile so when you turn it on it mixes as you steer with the wheel

[@RCGirl]

@@Dean_Designs_RC ah, very cool. I think the rugged programming is the same as the dx5.

[@malekrcgaming2432]

Awesome video and rig definately going to get this need something to replace my 1/18 Temper. Are there any smart batteries that will fit in it?

[@RCGirl]

I think anything smaller than 2200 mah

[@scale_nerd356]

They actually just released a very small 3s but it’s only 25c

[@qrisemrc]

The capra is made to resemble a real car. Climbs rocks very well. I enjoyed watching the review of an attractive KZbinr. I will come to communicate often. thank you.👍👍👍

I love muffinsmells w my 4ws Capra

[@evans9825]

The S614 servo.. How long did it last for you? I got one conservative run with the Savvy bomber out the box. Luckily they sent me another one which also died. I'm that guy that worries about axles getting gouged by rocks.. but the servo, junk or bad luck? Sad they put them in the 4ws capra. You got the power, send them a request!!
