Axial Scx10 2 vs Traxxas TRX 4

[@rpcltd9876]

Driver , tires, skill level, I own both and each has their pluses and negatives. Good video.

[@htchero7]

*positives/negatives

[@fcrc9337]

2:20 proof driver skill/line choice is more important than which truck is better. Great video!

[@ruffturbo9119]

FCRC I wanted to see them take the same line just to see the difference if any in climbing.

[@vlozity]

yep skill/line choices are very bad in this video... not sure i can agree and call this a great video, i think it is a waste. even if both trucks are driven by skilled drivers and take the same line, the scx10.2 will always dominate the trx4 because of their bodies... the trx4 is better looking but the worst body for trailing!

[@YYCRCFabricationz]

Couldn't say it any better or agree more with FCRC. IMHO that's all y'all proved in this very good video, other than y'all found some really sweet crawling trails.

[@trx4play784]

Great to see them in a nice natural surrounding..... Well done!

[@4-WHEEL-DRIVE]

i love the music , really nice RC adventure

[@sprather84]

Cool trucks + great camera work = new subscriber 👍🏻 Great job

[@RCPlayGround]

Both cars go up well. I watched the wonderful trial video.

[@Ttct50]

If you’re going to compare the two trucks against each other then you should play follow the leader and take the same line as the other guy that way everyone watching can see how the trucks react to the same exact path they took

[@RcHobbySteve]

Great idea but as two different drivers we took the lines we were more comfortable taking 🤟🏼

[@choro1981]

Cool video,love your RC 4x4's.

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

Take an 80 ton Army Tank, and try pushing it up a 70° incline! Now take a Feather and try pushing it up that same 70° incline! Now add 3S to the Feather!!! Hopefully this doesn't confuse too many people! Hopefully it helps out a few of them!!!

[@CORINKERSTEN]

I go for the scx10!!! great video fun to see some raw comparison footage!!!

[@BobSmith1980.]

What a great place for rc rock crawling

[@breakingmoney3077]

I have both, the only thing that separates the two, the TRX you can make it as hard as you want with gears locked or not. Plus the TRX has two gears a high you can bash around with period. It shows that buying the cheaper Axial is just as good as all the others out there that have all the extra goodies.

[@byknmikerc7153]

My brother put the home depot job box on his roof rack too! kinda funny looking to me but its his truck! love the vs vids guys good job

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

Technically neither is better!!! Both have strong points as well as weak points. All depends upon what type of terrain you are wanting to tear up ;)

[@tiborvon]

Which is the best ? They both seem very good. Excellent video 👍🏻

[@stephenpierce6716]

A5 about 4:30 or so I was certain the land rover was off that cliff

[@electriceverything9737]

scx10 ii is one of my fave bodys

[@awe_rc8380]

Great trailrun👌the place is real epic🥳

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

Even running both rigs heavily modified, I would still pick the Deuce! Even though it has a 12.3" w.b. vs a 12.8" w.b. . It all comes down to the Center of gravity and let's not forget the front to rear weight bias!!!

[@dennischin1368]

4:24 I was worry your defender fall off the cliff.

[@lfr30043]

Awesome video.

[@sam97eck]

Nice truck and great video

[@Bangbangboom51]

Seem unfair comparison as it seems like the TRX-4 is completely stock setup while the SCX10II have heavy beadlock wheels, aftermarket tires and who knows what other mods is in the scx10II.

[@RCKING1]

Bangbangboom51 that's just what I was going to say

[@kevinclements3631]

Bangbangboom51 Agreed. I own both...

[@RcHobbySteve]

The only mods done to this was the beadlocks and tires. This video was planned after the fact i did the swap on it

[@superjoint57]

Really cool vid! Thanks!

[@hungryorphan7711]

damn that xj is a beast. like all xj's

[@mark675]

Should put wheels on the defenders roof cus it spends most of its time there 😄

[@JK-qv8sv]

Best. Crawler. Music. Ever. Needs to be my new alarm clock tone

[@rghouse530]

How can this be a comparison If the axial doesn’t take the same lines? Trx4 fails, axial goes around obstacle, repeat

[@RcHobbySteve]

One has portals and the other doesn't. It would be impossible for the axial rig to take the very same line as the trx4. Thanks for viewing 😊

[@Beta250trials]

I've just got trx4 it's sweet

[@rcmadness4870]

I know in late so I have the k5 blazer but ima go to axiel scx 10ii and it's got a lightbar and wintch what's size battery are you running Thank you

[@RcHobbySteve]

I run standard size 2s lipo I'll be making a video of my current setup this weekend will be out sometime this week. Thanks for taking your time to comment. 👍🏻

[@rcmadness4870]

RCHobbySteve k thank you my grandpa and me are gonna build one ill be looking forward to your new vid

[@syahmihobby8963]

That axial have 2 speed gear or 1 gear only?

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

A short wheelbase lightweight rig, vs a long wheelbase heavy rig 😈

[@RcFunDrizzy]

Nice video 👍 looks like fun

[@Loafina7or]

Imo the trx-4 won. It's clear the axial had a lot more trail knowledge. Give the Traxxas more trail time and it will destroy the scx10II. I am an axial guy with a scx10 and wraith but the trx-4 is far ahead. The ONLY thing against the defender is the top heavy body. I'm sold on buying one. Swap the wheels to something with more grip and lose the spare in the back and it's pooping all over my rigs. PS great video. Awesome trail.

[@RcHobbySteve]

David Deckman Thanks for your imput ! After a year i finally have my own trx4 and its doing great. Its hard to tell which does better now my 10 2 or the trx4 as my axial rigs are all heavy.

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

My Jeep 2000 xj rtr destroys my Defender 110! Running the same wheels and tires! Also destroyed my Bronco as well!!! If I am wanting to do some serious rock crawling, I run the Deuce, and if I am wanting to go out scale trail driving. I run the Defender 110 or the Bronco! With that being said, I firmly believe that the new Sport, will give the Deuce a real run for the money, on the serious rock crawling lines...

[@AngryTurds]

That front bumper on the jeep looks a bit wild?

[@bartomiejjasinski7082]

yep, but I guess it's just mounted too far to the front, it could easily be 5-7mm shorter.

[@INMGRC]

Very nice driving video big thumbs up XD

[@arsalrc]

very nice video, liked and subed

[@oskarpolubok1376]

It's what kind of car Beat

[@thesillypig785]

For me the best truck means the one that is build well and doesn't break. One of my trucks is a Tamiya CC-01 which is far less capable than my other trucks but so much more challenging to drive, which is fun.

[@josephjohnson1161]

I would have to say the Axial did the better.. How far will one travel before needing a recharge? I'm looking at purchasing one very soon

[@CORINKERSTEN]

you are right about the axial doing better!!! and definitely get one they are awesome fun!! also it Depends what battery you use!! though you will get along way!!! i use a 3500mah nimh battery and can drive for half a hour pretty aggressively!! hope that helps mate!!

[@RcHobbySteve]

I say it depends on how you drive and your gearing i get about an hour and a half on my batteries

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

RTR VS RTR ?

[@shipmate3577]

Cool video... what would you recommend for around $100 to start my 8yrs old kid with? I like the look of real SUVs.

[@dothislaterdontprocrastina1396]

Shipmate you can get toy level 4x4 trucks that looks realistic but are cheaper and can be found at Walmart

[@kevinclements3631]

Redcat racing or wltoys make good products for th price for sure.... google them. Redcat is hobby grade and wltoys is close to it and better than walmart. you wont get a super scale look though. that will cost yeah if you want something that will last the boy ..

[@kamcradic2171]

I have them all the trx4 defender and tactical, SCX10 AND 2 THE gen7 PRO and sport fully upgraded to VANQUISH the Coyote the Venture, Bomber and the newest Wraith Spawn and you want to know which is the best....It's the fully equipped Redcat gen7 sport with Integy axles from the scx10 and MIP driveshafts and tenshock brushless it beats them all. The spawn can keep up pretty good though and the trx4 tactical is better just cause it lighter scx10 2 I'm selling junk in my opinion. But what do I know I think the only one I don't own until the 20th is the deadbolt. The bomber is just to beat up when I don't feel like skilling it up a mtn.

[@popwall4297]

Kam Cradic yeah I bet you do

[@johncrawford9520]

Kind of funny these two trucks are always going up against each other and my friend has the same truck TRX four and we haven’t got to crawl together yet Maybe soon I can post a video of them two together awesome video man

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

At the 2:20 mark I see what some are talking about! Gotta love the portal Axles!!! And if you would like your Deuce running the AR44 Axles to run the same lines as the Portal Axles, just add a little taller Tires ;)

[@djtelep4996]

the trx4 would try the hard route then do the easy route, the axial just did the easy route the whole time

[@RcHobbySteve]

Not entirely true. I led the trail run because I new the routes to take that were drive-able for these two rigs. Both rigs took the same line.

[@kevinclements3631]

RCHobbySteve We are all watching he same vid. they didnt take the same line at all. 2:20

[@PFinkoloTL87]

Thanks for sharing. May I ask what Li-Po the TRX-4 was running? 2S or 3S?

[@BlackSmithRC]

Great comparison video bro! Is it me or does the SCX10.2 make that terrain look easy? 100% MIDWID Material!

[@RcHobbySteve]

BlackSmith RC I enjoyed wheeling around aside the TRX4. It really does have a lot of potential but the Scx10 2 did tackle the trails just as well as its predecessor 🏆

What’s better this scx or the scx jeep

[@ieik8065]

The Trx 4 is awesome but for $100 more I would expect it to be better. Bot trucks are great for their respective price range.

[@suryjoni]

Its very nice trip. Just i think u should show more what the car capable of

[@RcHobbySteve]

yonatan i wish i could but sadly there isnt as much to crawl over in my town.

[@pricey8070]

The SCX10 was avoiding some of the obstacles. Seems like the Traxxas TRX-4 won.

[@RcHobbySteve]

Scream Reaper stay tuned for part 2 🤙🏽

[@carguy7476]

I disagree, in most parts the SCX10 II actually took a more challenging path and also just took better lines through parts. My SCX10 II in my testing is actually a lot better then my TRX 4, even when i run them with the same tires and same battery.

[@haromaster6086]

Thx for video but the true comparison would have been the shorter wheelbase bronco or K5 blazer. Nice though. Man the turning radius on the scx10 sucks

[@humanx187]

+RcHobbySteve which one do you think is the more capable rig?

[@RcHobbySteve]

humanx187 stock out the box I believe the TRX4 only because of the tires it has. The tires on the Scx10 2 don’t grab very well as to why I wasn’t running stock tires. Now if we’re basing it off of this video I’d say the Scx10

[@dwaynebaker8733]

Wow! I think the trx-4 actually did a better job.😀 glad I ordered it.

[@ruffturbo9119]

Dwayne Baker the TRX looks like it handles the bumps better looks more realistic scale wise in handling, but the scx looks better in the difficult stuff.

[@GodRam1988]

Yea I’d have to say the axial did better when push came to shove. But the trx4 is a awesome very realistic rig:)

[@kevinclements3631]

RUFFTURBO911 thats because it was going around the hard stuff. lol 2:20

[@PatisserieRoyale]

if you take off the front bumper on that scx10ii , it would perform much better!

[@kevinclements3631]

Cant tell as they are not even hitting the same obstacles. The Trx goes over a axle catcher at 2:20 and the scx10 goes around lol. I own both. With the same body on, the trx is better. Out pulles wraiths with brushless 3s... a power house with the portals axles.

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

Fun video, anyway I look at it!!! ;)

[@randylynch119]

You should of tried the axial on the rock the traxxas wouldn't go up

[@angryyank]

An interesting side by side trail ride with both trucks the Traxxas TRX-4 (with portals).... Cheater lol... obviously being the most expensive at almost 7 bills and the Axial SCX10 II being almost 5 bills and straight axles.. I would give the win to the axial... For the reason of better lowend torque and better braking control & FAR less tipping over due to a better lower COG... I own both of these trucks and I LOVE them both tbh... Both are very good scale trails and a blast to drive.... But if your relatively new to crawling and trail trucks & looking for a really good performer straight out of the box and without blowing wads of cash I prefer the axial....

[@Ennis320]

Did the TRX-4 remove foams from tires? They look to have a lot of flex

[@RcHobbySteve]

Chris Ennis stock foams have worn out on my buddies rig due to water build up in the rims

[@tacticalmattfoley]

Throw some Pitbulls or Voodoos on the TRX 4 with beadlocks and see the difference.

[@vaco6908]

Only Axial SCX10 II! :D

[@ObierRC]

Great video 🙂 I sub 😉👍

[@absolute_abundance]

So much better without the background music !

[@vireakchannel205]

Good

[@yvindnordhagenrc7669]

Great video! Liked & Subbed :-)

[@didjterminator808]

wow! the traxxas is too heavy! didn't see that coming! otherwise the trx4 would win... but then again axial has more upgrades so if you where to take apples to apples in the endgame the axial is actually better in the end... but at the same time the trx4 is still on my Christmas list, just with the addition of the axial!

[@OmarTheAtheistAziz]

1:11 funny how u guys choose path of most resistance lol

[@matthewhatton3637]

You need to put some weights on that trx4.

[@matthewhatton3637]

Oh and get rid of that heavy Land Rover body. I got the trx4 Tactical Unit with the sport Body and a one pound weight in between the front frame. Think crawls anything!!

[@clivenyachieo621]

Trx4 is the best axial is just skipping some obsticalls

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

Before I watch the video, I already know the answer!

[@rekitoys1404]

BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT what the answer

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

rahmat rian, the SCX10 II, for the rocks & the TRX4 for running scale trail lines.

[@BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT]

SCX10 II is a freak on the rocks and very lightweight! TRX4 is a Tank and more of a scale trail running rig. Don't get me wrong, the TRX4 can rock crawl with the best of them. But it's more at home as a scale trail rig. Unless you are going to add lots of brass to the front axle and a tiny little LiPo for the center of gravity purposes...

[@JFlyer1973]

BUILTLIGHTWOUNDTIGHT so this is now a year old and you may already be totally aware of this... but it seems with the Bronco and Blazer TRXs they solved the top heavy body issue and even shortened the wheel base making the TRX a true contender against any truck rock or trail. I’m actually surprised other companies like Axial haven’t adopted portal axles also? I love Axial but man ya can’t argue Traxxas’s efforts with the TRX line.

[@mojaverc1585]

JFlyer1973 now they have portals

[@popwall4297]

doing a lot of for real 4 Wheeling I definitely wouldn't want these two guys with my group

[@RcHobbySteve]

Good thing this is rc and not real. 🙂

[@mudmonkey1]

THE scx10 perform better with out THE spare tire on THE roof now its tophavy

[@matthewhatton3637]

Thing!

[@nhraandnascarfanatic5907]

Offloaded my scx10 to give the trx4 a go... What a shit choice!

[@grfulgarcia]

Trx4 is just ok... Traxxas electronics are junk (especially on this rig to much to go wrong) ever traxxas I've had the first think I had to ripp out the the garbage and install better equipment. If your going to get one get the sport edition you will be better off. Axial is the way to go...

[@user-lq4qs4zs3f]

Axial won

[@popwall4297]

I gave this a thumbs down because the terrain was not scale to the vehicle being run keep it real the music didn't help any either

[@RcHobbySteve]

I appreciate the honesty and the feedback. It helps me to do different things in my videos. Cheers! 👍😁
