Well, I am pretty sure that the main reason a lot of reviewers don't like Traxxas is because the don't give any commission. Bangood is advertising up to 28% commission from sales, and on top of that Traxxas almost never sends rc for review, so it's more convenient to make a videos investing just your time than investing time and money and not getting any commission, just relaying on add revenue
@TomleyRC
@TomleyRC Жыл бұрын
Completely wrong... and Banggood will never give 28% on RC products..most people doing RC Bangood stuff will get about 6%. Amain do an Affiliate program, so anything you can buy on Amain (including Traxxas) will get you a small percentage. Traxxas send out new stuff to a handful of US KZbinrs, but they don't bother with the rest of the world as the US is their biggest market. I never make videos based on how much commission I can make... I make videos based on how much interest I think there will be.... and a good example is that i've not bothered with the New Rlaarlo video yet as KZbin is saturated, so I'll actually lose Affiliate income because by the time my videos done most of the Hype would have been and gone. Just to note as well.. I spent more on these 2 TRX4-M's than the commission I made from Banggood last month 😅

I already spent enough on 24th scale, and I see this as a slight upgrade, but not a proper substitute for tenth scale. The Axial attempt seems more whole-hearted on the 18th scale... I think I'll wait and see what happens, maybe Element decide to join the fun and do a nice one... Always good seeing your reviews, I based a few purchases on them, ha ha!

Fast Eddy has a cheaper bearing kit. 3 out of 4 of my stock shocks don’t hold oil. I bout the upgrades and they work better. The drop in transmissions make it super easy to swap from crawler gears to speed gears. What i did was instal the bearing kit and the slow gears into the stock gear box. Then i bought the speed transmission. The fully assembled ones include the bearings. Now if i want to crawl i put in the slow transmission and if i want fast i swap it out. The swap takes about 3 minutes total. Injora already has a bunch of brass and Treal has some on their page(not on amazon yet). Stock tires aren’t bad, but heavy wheels and some of the new Injora Rock Terrains or Comp tires make a big difference. Great review! oh and you will notice a lean to the right side. I had to put 2 spacers in the right rear and 1 in the right front to combat the lean.

Tomley, if you have a spare Traxxas TQI radio you can pair it to the trx4m. This will allow you to adjust your throttle expo and make the modulation very smooth. If you pair that with a set of the optional crawler gears the low speed modulation is AMAZING! I agree it isn't impressive out of the box, but with a tqi radio and the low range crawler gears it's very impressive.

I was one of the lucky few that was able to get their TRX4M on release day here in the US. It's a fun little companion to my TRX4 Defender but I really need to get it out more or find somewhere that does indoor small scale crawler stuff near me as winter has the RCs indoors most of the time (or at least until we get snow in my area). I have a low range motor/transmission on order with my LHS, just waiting for it to come in as of right now to try it out as I agree that the low end with stock gears is less than desirable out of the box.

Brass weights in the front stiffer springs, baja pro tires removed spare fake tire carrier and put an actual tire back there , got the low gearing and that helps alot in low modulation.

funny enough you cant set the steering end points on the included transmitter at all. HOWEVER, if you have a TQi transmitter lying around, it will pair up with the trx4m stock electronics and give you the ability to make adjustments. Many people also feel throttle input is smoother with the TQi however I have not experienced this myself.

Traxxas has always been the gold standard of choice for me when purchasing a basher or short course truck for races arma is good aswell but Traxxas is the best 💪💪 not a fanboy just from Personal experience. Love my armas too damn good brand

Can't say I love this one, and it is the only Traxxas I own. Don't think that will be changing anytime soon. The steering binding issue is a dealbreaker for me, and now wasted forty bucks on bearings and it didn't help at all!

All these rc cars that have bearings, Top tip, just get the size of the website and you can easily order them from a bearing seller. I live in the netherlands and found a place on google. They sent me out all the ones for the rustler, and they cost me a fraction of the price than the rc shop...

@@xts_eddy9527 Me? I have plenty of videos on the trx-4m. Unless you spend a bunch of money on the axial, the Traxxas will win in large and small spaces. It’s superior out of the box and it’s the same size as the gladiator, the most capable sc24. The steering on the Traxxas is much better. But you can make the scx24 steer better with mods and upgrades. I love my scx24’s but the Traxxas is a better platform to begin with. I’m in the states and only 45 minutes from Traxxas headquarters, so they’re cheap and easy to come by. I’m no fan boy, I just like fun. Whatever you get, I hope you enjoy it! Anymore questions, just holler.

With all your small crawlers maybe you should look for someone in your area that builds trains and the scenic stuff with them and maybe they'd help you make a really scale looking course. Then again, some rocks on a table and a paint roller pan (make like a pool) with some mud or water in it would be really cool too. Nothing beats the real thing of outdoors but soon everything be white. Have a great day Phil and I'm rooting for you against Kevin.

What I hate most about the battery is that I can't bring it to storage voltage. I'll probably have to wait until there are adapters. by then the battery is probably dead
