In this video I give myself a total budget of $250 to buy and upgrade a new Traxxas TRX4M. We're seeking maximum performance for as little cost as possible! I purchase a handful of mods and also provide some tips and tricks along the way. Check out the video to see how well our TRX4M Bronco did after the upgrades!

I just picked one of these up. Looking into those wheels for sure! Do you still recommend more than their offset to prevent binding? And do you think they'll work well on an otherwise stock car? Not looking to put much more into it at the moment, but want to certainly prevent the binding.

Quick tip: if you want scale on a Trx4M defender or bronco. First take off the sticker decal on the tire then there will be a screw and you’ll have to unscrew that. Next grab a Scx24 wheel/tire or stock Trx4M tire/wheel and screw it on. Very easy mod for a scale look.

Really happy you did this video. I've been eyeing that Injora LCG carbon fiber chassis but everywhere I look it says for the defender only. Great to see it actually works with the bronco. You are right about the crawler gears though. My bronco is currently 780g and there's no way the stock gears could hold the vehicle at an angle.
@CapeCrawlers
@CapeCrawlers Жыл бұрын
I will add that the chassis continues to be a struggle with the Bronco. The body clips just do not want to stay put. The chassis is wedged against the body supports and makes fitting it appropriately very challenging. Still, for $22 I am satisfied with it.

We have two TRX-4m Broncos: One is mine. All chassis parts are upgraded to metal. Crawler gears and Injora wheels with 58mm tires are also installed. All the upgrades cost almost double that of the car itself. The other is my nephew's. The only upgrades are bearings and lubricated gears. Real-life difference in performance - maybe a couple of degrees better angles. Crawler gears - I don't recommend it. You will lose a lot of speed. It becomes so slow, that while my nephew goes around full track and catches me, I am still in the first third of the track (and the track is not easy, it is about 5m (a bit more than 16 feet) long, with plenty of difficult angles and obstacles for a crawler). What's even worse (for me), my nephew Bronco, after his “simple” upgrades, can crawl almost as slow and steep as mine do (“simple” because to change bearings, you still need to take apart all the car). Additional weight - unless you want to kill your servo (like I did), don't add much. Maybe brass hexes and diff covers, it (Broco) really doesn't need much more. What I am noticing, is that I am probably losing performance with all that weight added. On some obstacles, it looks like tires just get squished and start sliding. Maybe a different foam would help… 🤔 Injora tires (INJORA 1.0 RC Tyre Soft Rubber Tyre All Terrain 58 x 20 mm) lost their stickiness after about a month of use. What I recommend: If you buying it for a kid or just for fun, just add some grease and lube. It will be enough for a start. If the time comes for a little more performance, add a bearing kit. You would not believe how much difference that makes. If you want to upgrade it to the max, just like was said in the video, don’t expect huge performance boost. But don’t let that lower your mood, it will be a fight for barely noticeable improvements, but if you enjoy it, heck, you only live once 😁

Very good input! Modifying these is like lifting weights: you make 90% of your gains very early with very basic inputs. After that it takes exponentially more effort for diminishing returns.

Besides liking the military truck look of the Defender body more than the Bronco, I also went with it because it was “the worse of the two,” with the heavier body and rear bias. My thought process was, if I start a little lower in capability, I would notice the changes I made more. So far, I’m glad I went this route. I managed to get those Injora wheels on! Super happy with my gains over the stock wheels. My scale said each wheel went from 16 grams (stock) to 34 grams with the brass rings.

Honestly I think you had a good chance of making it stock with just the gear change. It was easy to see the difficulty in control with the stock gears. I'd consider that a must have mod for anyone buying it for crawling even if they're happy with the out of the box performance and it's only 5 bucks! Too bad Traxxas doesn't just include them to begin with so you have the option immediately. As someone with the full size TRX4 defender I still haven't decided if I want one of these enough to get it vs all the other things the money could go towards. 🤪

I never really cared for this scene in R/C or crawlers in general. In fact, when I was younger I thought they were dumb. I just didn't understand what I was looking at; at the time and was fixated on fast cars. Now that I'm older and have a proper understanding for their purpose, I actually think they're pretty cool! And seeing that you made a mini course in your basement is dope! Reminded me of the diorama train sets my gramps used to create and build in the rec room. Ahhh, the joys you find in life while maturing. I don't think I'll dive into this scene anytime soon but *you* definitely have peaked my interest in watching. After I get my typical cars and trucks all up and running this year I'll look into buying/building my first crawler. Any recommendations for a newbie in this scene or mainly what to stay away from? I like to tinker a lot so I think I'll actually enjoy these a lot more than I initially thought. I can see myself setting challenges and just bringing them along when I go out to trails and parks. Would match the setting a lot better than my on-road cars that would struggle with the terrain or my stupid fast monster trucks that wouldn't make proper use of their power band.

I like the color of the body and as you say the rims kinda grow on you so they could always be painted. My opinion for 102.00 bucks which is about the limit for the average hobbyist not bad at all the tires are really standing out as are the crawler gears. Well done. From a Newbie.

Love the budget build! I think the orange body and white wheels look great together. Not a criticism, but I would have kept the stock chassis and went with a set of brass suspension links instead for even more weight down low.

Thanks for watching! In hindsight I’m not sure I would have done the chassis either

@@CapeCrawlers I’m trying to do a similar budget build to yours, would you suggest shock towers instead of the chassis then? And would you suggest getting new shocks or should I keep the stock ones and just buy some shock oil to have on hand?

So since you got 62mm tires, and they fit good that means that the 2.4 trx4m high trail tires should fit on my bronco right? 2.4 inches translate to 60mm. I accidentally bought those instead of the 2.2 inch bronco tires. I also have the long arm lift kit and 59mm shocks on the way. I’m also having trouble with the rear clip. I wonder if it’s another of those mistakes on traxxas side just like the front tire binding. Also, every one who’s thinking about buying this trx4m should watch this video. It was great man. ❤

If you put a defender body on it, it would somehow leak oil, catch fire from an electical problem and only work for 10 days out of each month... Real life, creeping into RC. The LR dealer let us take a defender for the weekend while we decided on buying one. It left on a flatbed and they put a cover on it with a Ford emblem on the cover so people wouldnt know it broke down. It was dead from an electrical issue (smoke came out from the dash while trying to start it) I bought a Bronco ($10k more expensive than the defender) the next day.

Are you using the driving profiles on the esc? because it has a crawl profile so the car doesn't jump at every small trigger pull because out of the box it's in trail mode.

I did my first actual comp crawl with my scx24 this weekend and the truck and impressed me a lot was the white element truckI'm not positive with the name of it was but the way they got the motor sitting over the front axle and the battery sitting over the back it was just so centered so nice and all he had was just a set of tires and he crawled almost better than everyone in the stock frame class and actually kind of made me mad because he paid 890 bucks for it and put the stock wheels off of a scx 24 and tires

I'm pretty sure it's the front shock towers and or the brace between the two. I built up my defender with the injora chassis and the Bronco body doesn't quite fit without a bit of mod.

You're right. I tried to cut the crossmember on the body and it's much improved, but still has fitment issues.

Awesome vid and great info!! I know you like the enjura stamped steel rims. I have a ax 24 and want to widen the stance of the car. What width do you recommend I go with?? Thanks 😊. Love the before and after tests on your builds!!

Thanks! I like the flipped steel wheels for width. Treal makes some nice hex extensions that are also a good option

Just was looking for an budget build for the bronco and this was amazing, bad thing is that the ebay thing doesnt ship to the country i live in.😢 Oh And one more question, Does 7mm wheel hex extensions work on this kind of build?

I just went to my local hobby shop and they sold me a brand new high trail for 155 bucks. Sweet deal imo, almost close to the regular trx4m
