Finally available at Amainhobbies - alnk.to/6IBGrWy

One thing i haven't seen anyone mention is the theres a screw under the sticker on the "spare tire" and there's a hex already there if you want to switch to a real spare. I thought that was pretty cool.
-
If no one has said it. Bro, You are the king of explaining things so simple. Thank you!!!! Peace be with you and many blessings in 20224!
-
I just got the Defender in red. This will be my first introduction to trail / crawler rigs. Thanx man!
-
Been loving my trx4-m. Just got wheels and tires for it today and looking to fit some small brass. And also have to install my bearings this weekend. Great little rig. So much potential. Great vid Francis.
-
I’ve done pretty much all of these mods plus ALOT more and the best/most noticeable was swapping for the low transmission gears.
-
I had a Hobbywing 1080 layin around as well as a 4ch receiver which came with my Noble NB4. I threw both of them in the TRX4M as well as ball bearings. That thing is absolutely sweet as pie now. Only other mod needed are beadlock wheels with a brass ring
-
Sweet little rigs, excited to see how the aftermarket pics up for them! Also appreciate the link in the comments for the battery adapters! Hoping to provide options for people in the hobby.
-
Iv been running the bearing kit in my trx4m and it really freed it up👍👍 more torque too. Only took 40 mins to install
-
I bought two immediately!! Both a red defender and red bronco! I don’t have any binding issues at all and that’s something that really worried me and almost made me not buy the trucks. Happy that I got them and look forward to modifying them!
-
When I seen the title, I thought how the heck does this guy already have ten upgrades for such a new item. I'm glad I was wrong. You did a great job with your down to earth list. This will be my first r/c since my old HPI nitro rs4 2 in high school. I never thought I'd see the day when electric was so superior to nitro. You do a great job with these videos man. I have no idea what I'm doing and you are a great teacher.

Interesting things in this video. We've had two TRX4-M Defenders for a while now and love them. The light kit is, as you say, a "no brainer" really.😄 Yet to swap the transmission ratios, but may well consider it now. I also like the idea of binding to a TQi controller. 👍
-
You made an excellent analysis of the platform as usual, thank you. For now I am gonna stick with my OG Slash and mini Slash 4x4. I just have too many little Axials that work so well on my indoor rock course.
-
great vid and list of low cost upgrades, i was on the fence about getting one of these and you just convinced me. Definitely going with the defender as i have always wanted to do a camel trophy truck theme build.
-
Thanks for the video, your video was the first I watched on YouTube, followed 3 of your upgrades and can definitely say they all made a difference to my Trx4m, all my buddies have done the same mods, a bunch of us drive together on our channel.
-
I have followed all your interesting TRX-4m videos and are really valuable... so much valuable that I have ordered my TRX-4m from my Italian dealer today! Thanks for the useful tips to upgrade in a cheap way this funny car. I will get it in my bag as I go to some Trial trips and I know in the top I get some area suitable for crawling! Thanks for your job !
-
Great videos! I just ran across a bunch in stock at my not so local hobby shop and couldnt wait for my preorder.. this thing is excellent so far, it drives better than any 1/24 i've had other than the kyosho miniz 4x4, but at nearly half of the price!
-
great video! I just got one the other day and love it. I feel spoiled how many upgrades are now available compared to when you made this. I already want another so I can do high speed and low speed mods
-
Great little truck out of the box, and Great tips to get it to the next level. Thanks!
-
Loving the videos! Cant wait to pick one of those up.
