    Ok, i did not know that I needed a brushless mud truck. Thank you for enlightening me.

    I LOVE IT!! I’ve been making my crawlers into fast monsters for a while now. Never thought about making the Bronco into a fast beast like you did here. Very NICE!! Yes, i see you would definitely have to change all the stock items out for the bronco. Especially, the way in which the bronco drives. It’s top heavy and likes to turn over a lot. Can’t wait to see the changes in your next video!

    I bought the same setup BUT for my 1979 Ford Bronco. You just convinced me to get the Velineon motor, I bought replacement metal parts ahead as well all Traxxas branded save for the push bar and roof rack. Question, how did you manage to make the light system work especially for the reverse lights?

  • @carlosacosta2812
    @carlosacosta2812 ปีที่แล้ว

    I can’t get my trx4 45kg upgrade servo to be straight. When I turn the wheels they stay turned and don’t line up. And when ever I put my foot beside the wheels and tried to turn the wheels but they didn’t move, but once I picked it up the wheels moved and then when I put the truck back down they don’t move, the servo makes the noise as if it’s turning but doesn’t. And then the wheels are just side to side and not lined up. Do you know how to fix that?

    You can use the light kit with the brushless system and have the reverse light function working. Just use the maxx link cable in the receiver. I do it with my hobbywing fusion and everything work perfectly.

I'm still not sure of the velenion in my trx4's, but I know that system is awesome, I've put one in what was the brushed bandit, the thing flies now!

      I have gotten 15 mph on a completely stock original Bronco rinning a Lectron Pro 5200 50c battery and that seems to be more than enough. I would not want to lose functionality such as access to the locking differentials which are most definitely needed in tough terrain. I have several 1/8 scale brushless vechiles that hit the extremely high speeds. I assume a sensored brushless system would help but it still may struggle in very tough terrain without the locking differentials.

    Is that system "waterproof"? I want to go brushless in my 1/10 Summit but I mainly run it in streams/brooks and mud. Don't want to spend money on the brushless system if I'm just gonna ruin it first time out. Haha

    • @54321ZachMr

      I sank my 2021 Bronco in a sinkhole last summer. I cleaned it off and ran it a few times just fine...then the ESC went up in smoke. An easy fix, which is what I expected to replace. The rest of the parts are just fine. Just beware. If that ESC gets drenched, it's going to pop sooner or later.

    So here’s the thing. You can accomplish this by a simple pinion change. Trx4 comes stock with a 10 tooth pinion. I swapped mine to a 15 tooth pinion, instantly doubled the speed in both first and second gear. Mine does wheelies etc. the only benefit I can see going to brushless would be a sealed motor in the mud and water.. other than that it’s pointless. $8 pinion swap

    This is a great video and excellent brushless conversion. I understand how the Motor and ESC are waterproof as is the reciever box but what about the lighting kit and those jxl plugs? I love the Bronco and almost brought the 1979 TRX 4 Ford Bronco and was also lusting over the 2021 TRX 4 Bronco in iconic silver too. Eventually i settled on the TRX 4 Ford F150 high trail metallic brown but swapped back to 1.9 wheels and 4.6 tyresfrom the Landrover Defender. They look much better and more scale realistic. Even though the major selling point to me was the high trail lift kit and that 1979 Ford F150 body but IMO the big 2.2 wheels and 5.3 tyres looked kind of silly. Plus i was worried about the stock servo burning up from them big tyres. I really would like a little more speed from mine though nothing outrageous. But i haven't taken it out on any rock gardens or any crawling courses yet. Ive only had thus truck a week.im in Australia and its somewhat difficult, actually a lot different sourcing parts for any brand RC cars over here. Usually a months long wait and completely different to America. And when they do arrive , man they get snapped up real fast. Great video mate. Hope you get you full light set back working too👌💪👍
