This chassis is 1/10 scale 11.9" wheelbase rig featuring 1.55" steel beadlock wheels. Don't expect this rig to do the work for you! It will put your scale driving to the test, requiring you to pick your lines well and work those features. Looking to add a scaler to your fleet? This is a fun one to consider!

Nice job! Flatting the paint was a great idea.

Great review. Good to see RC4WD coming out with a new model.
Happy new year!...thank you for informatively providing info on this dope Rc Jeep!;I so love the way you linguistically express yourself -not only in the Rc dept. but just in general(noice!)!...thank you! 😎🤙🏽
Great video. Rig looks sick can’t wait to get one
Loved the review very thorough and informative. You're awesome, I think I'm in love 😍
"Happy New Year"....You're certainly building a nice crawler collection. All your rigs are well thought out and look great on the trail. I especially liked the two chickens trail blazing for your run.
Nice looking, and seems to be pretty capable. Thanx for the video
Awesome video and thanks for suggestions and review👍🏻
Looks good, winch really helps the look of it out along with dialing the gloss back a few points. Good job, love the scale side of the rc hobby
Great little touches to it! Looks great!
Wow i've been looking for more information on this rig. Thanks so much, i just received my TF2 Goodrich Edition and working on my mods...... Love the chicken crawlers :o) thanks
Awesome video making & review my friend. Really enjoy watching & good explaination. Love the tips about faber castell. Thanks. Beautiful rc & scenery. You got fun outdoor course to run your crawler. Great work. Liked & subbed! Hope to see more of your work😁👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Good review and great enhancement of the car design 👍RC4WD is definitely doing good scale cars!
Sort of a bummer not seeing any inner fenders included,especially when a lot of manufacturers are doing inner fenders. Great video 👍
Great looking jeep good video and a happy new year girl. 👍💗
Great, honest review video as always. Thanks!
Great looking rc crawler. Awesome video as well. 👍
Thanks for the tip about using the marker. Made my Marlin look so much better!
Ohhh why did I watch this great review!! Now I need another model in the collection, great review as per usual 👍🏻
That is the cutest trail ever. Nice!!
Fun little off roader. Happy new year 🎉
Very cool 👍🏼 another great video

Very nice review. Thank you.
Just what I need, another hobby to spend money on! That course is really cool.
Great video and info... Thanks and cheers stay safe
Sweet ride 👍✌️❤️
Hey there RC girl! Nice to meet a fellow RC tuber 😄 sweet review.
RC Girl, good review. My next build will be a RC4WD. I always enjoy your videos.
Thanks 🤙🏼
Very thorough and brisk. I prefer reviews like yours, that are planned out, and not just winged on the spot. 👍👍 By the way, yeah, your winter weather looks absolutely brutal. LOL.
lovely rig
Cant wait till mine shows up!!
Great review & info. Too many negatives for me to consider: small size, non scale grill (I know the 7 slot is under) & fenders & out of proportion somehow. High mounted motor, no oil in the shocks, etc. I'm being picky, but for $500 there are a lot of other rigs to choose from. Too bad because I really am a Jeep guy. I was looking forward to a super scale JK hard body.
Awesome Truck, nice driving
Hmm I like that tip on painting the body lines. I've got one I'm going to try that out on
Sharp looking rig, looked like it had good low end for crawling and smooth controls.
Extraordinarily RC Jeep 👍👍 I really like the RC4WD style 🤓 Happy New Year 🍀🍾🥂👍
Fun review, great course crawl footage, thank you!
Driver, wrestlers Lana or 'Rowdy' Ronda Rousey 👍
This rig is really growing on me. I like the fact the regular grill is hidden behind the protective screen. As for scale drivers. Diamond select toys, NECA movie figures are two very decent options. Lots of people also use the WWE wrestling figures. But it's difficult to find plain clothed figures from that line.
Love the outdoor course. I actually copied the staircase idea after I seen your your comparison video on the brass up front on your defender video.
good evening this car looks very good explanation continues well like that I took out my trx6 I am enjoying myself with hello from France soon
Awesome looks great RC Girl I like the color blue 💙 and I'm watching and enjoying the video 👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎❤️ great job RC Girl
Nice review.
Really looks way better the way you used the matte clear wow nice!
Thanks! I like matte 😀
happy new year!
Happy new year. Hopefully many videos coming in 2021, weeee. And the flip flops in the summer of course 😊
Happy new year.
That is a really nice looking nota Jeep.
Rig looks killer. Al they need now are controlled diffs and 2wd mode
Nice looking Jeep. Great video
Great review. It's good to know the body can be disassembled to be repainted. I plan to paint it a different color. That is if i can get the body clips to work. I really wish the body was screwed on. It seemed nearly impossible to get the clips working.
Happy new year 🎆
This truck isn't small, others are really big! Anyway here's my first thoughts on this truck:
-Performance suffers for the sake of realism, which is neither good or bad. Personally, I believe that a lotta RC trucks overperform compared to their full scale counterparts.
-Having the motor that high can result in a incredibly high CG. If this is a problem on this truck is hard to say yet, I haven't seen it at extreme angles yet.
-Seperate spring and shock: MAJOR bonus points! Shame they aren't oil filled shocks though.
-only comes as RTR (for now). This is extremely bad. For a lotta people, including me, building a rig is atleast half the fun of RC. Plus you're paying for a lotta stuff that's gonna be swapped out later like electronics.
Yep agree with all this!
Hey Hayley, Happy New Year! would love to see a update video on your Axial Capra with a trail run? Watched the build, upgrades and Airbrush vids but would really love to hear how you got on out on the trail with it and what you think? Thought your build, upgrades and colour scheme were spot on!!! Keep looking at buying one but would really value your take on its performance compared to your TRX4? Thanks and keep up the great work!!
Yeah :-) my favorite RC Girl :D Thumbs up and watching :-)
I had to watch the video twice, the first one to see your eyes and the second one to see the crawler.
There are several Walking dead female action figures. Lot of 10 on ebay right now. Thanks for the great content. Watching from a deer blind.... :)
Definitely the end-points. Those RC4WD servos aren't the strongest but they've been reliable. That's a huge servo arm to move the shifter only a 1/4. I have one of the oldest Trailfinders you'll see on the internet...I bought mine very early in production...I'm telling you...I've gone through my share of shift servos many years ago.
very nice my friend
Rig looks good even if its little of in scale, probably good for trailing and slightly crawling. + for it comes with batteries for both car and remote.
I feel like the scx10 and trx’s are more 1/9 and this is more of a true 1/10 rig.
Wow nice
You are going to my heart.
I love the scale ckickensaurus's on the trail
For being 100% stock , in my mind it did not bad at all. With a few aftermarket swaps it be a great trailer..
Excellent video, and nice touches with the black trim lines and matte clearcoat - which even works on Lexan RTR bodies to make them look more realistic. I did my Vaterra K10 after painting the hood in black and my silver TRX-4 Defender after painting the roof white, and it totally improved their appearance. I'm personally not a fan of the Cross Country Black Rock body, but I do like the new chassis - the rails are VERY sturdy, being done like structural girders (check around 3:58 by the rear crossbar), and I like the separation of the coils from the shocks, which bodes well for this chassis to be also used with leafs down the road. The body mount system and opening hood are also nifty touches. I do wish they'd lower their engine mount, but if you run a Holmes Stubby Puller Pro or Revolver that does help offset it a little. RC4WD makes vehicles that have suspensions that cycle more realistically over the terrain, and have more body roll - again, more like driving a 1:1, which I like.
As far as the cloned Jeep-style body, practically every RC manufacturer is guilty of this, but it helps keep cost down in this already expensive hobby. Pro-Line has done it many times - witness the Sumo Suzuki Samurai clone , the Rock Van Dodge B-Series clone, the Metric Toyota Tacoma clone, and so on. Vanquish did it with their IH Scout clones (funny that Redcat licensed theirs!), Axial with their UMG10 Unimog clone, Trail Honcho Toyota clone, and Dingo Land Rover clone. Element, Cross, and Gmade tend to stick with more generic bodies, but there are exceptions. Traxxas is really the only company licensing all their realistic crawler bodies - Vaterra is now dead (unfortunately), Tamiya has no real crawler chassis to speak of, Kyosho is only making smaller than 1-10th scale crawlers and HPI only has one vehicle, the Venture FJ.
Frankly, I am not very concerned that Jeep isn't getting a licensing fee for many of the various Jeep-style bodies out there in the hobby-grade and toy-grade RC market - they make PLENTY of money licensing their name all over the world. My only reason for disliking the Black Rock is that I don't think it looks all that great, RC4WD has done many better in the past. I'm sure we'll see better on this new chassis soon! Happy New Year... 👍
Excellent review, plenty of close ups of the chassis for once. Would be good to see the two speeds in action and check out the steering lock.
Subject of figures gets ignored in reviews, seen too many ghost drivers!
I'm finding it difficult to choose my first rig and may just go back in time and do the tamiya bruiser thing. Any ideas?
hi Hayley! just met ya. excited
Haha awesome, great to meet you!! And nice tiny trucks and bikes🤙🏼
🙌
Love the videos can u do a review on a axial SCX24 24 if u have not yet
Pretty cool rig overall. Your outlining tip is awesome. I have not thought of it. Thank you for that one. So do you think it is priced right? I think you need to get a driver that looks like you!!!$
There is an awesome Hermione Granger figure. She is wearing regular clothes with a hoodie. I use that one when I can because the wrestler women figures are a little much... Great video. This rig has been on my short list lately. Great to see what it can do.
Ah yes she looks great!
I love your hair.
Nice rig, but they are gonna have to come down on price to match the competition, imo
I really like the subtle details! Do the side stickers stick well to the matt clear coat?
Yeah they seem pretty stuck on 👍🏻
hey girl! Great video!
I get why you cringed. The truth is I was being sarcastic and it didn't translate well? I question if you would you still cringe if you knew I'm female too? Ultimately I just wanted to comment because I'm under the impression it really helps youtubers to get lots if likes and comments. My one comment has now multiplied to 3, Not a bad return on a bad joke :) but I'm still pretty sure a dude ... eh, nevermind.
@@mikko3d Thanks for the validation that it was a good reason.I will try,in the future, to not be sarcastic,since it doesn't translate well for you.
Hi there. This question maybe more about traxxas TRX 4 but I'm new to the RC world and just bought my first traxxas TRX6. I was wondering since these 2 rc's share quite similar parts, what would you recommend for first upgrades. Is the brushless motor a necessary first upgrade or should I wait a bit. I've already have installed the yeah racing metal axle for the front middle and rear axle. What other upgrades is necessary and or recommended for installation. Thanks
Love the review! It's it just me or does that body look just like the injora??
✳️PLEASE READ THIS !!!!✳️
- VERY IMPORTANT !!
✳️HEY RC GIRL !! YOUR "TRANSFER CASE IS LOOSE".....when you were shifting your 2 speed servo !!!!✳️
YOU NEED TO TIGHTEN IT UP !!!!
BEFORE YOU HAVE ISSUES !!
- JUST LOOKIN' OUT ! 😉👍🇺🇲✌️
I watch your videos a lot, and what I love the most is the REVIEWS you do !! 😁 Well done !!! You provide insights on functionalities that are important !! Ones that most others bypass or do not get into.
Thankyou so much !! 😁👍👍
And....HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!! 🇺🇲
Look good rig! Only one thing miss is inners fenders I hope companies would make one.
Is the ftx ravine a good rc car for crawling
Nice review !! I have the same winch, mine came with a remote that I attached to my transmitter. It sounds clunky, but it actually works great. I don't use my winch very often, so it's more for show than anything. I like RC4WD products, but details like exposed gears do make me concerned for durability.
I couldn't figure out that remote control for my winch. Even going to Schaefer's in Mo. They couldn't figure it out. I found one (a plug in) at Amain.
@@lylekehrer6159 Mine was as simple as it gets. 2 wires to power, 2 wires to the winch. Took longer to mount it than wire it, but mine is powered right off the battery. Defective unit ?
@@echobeefpv8530 might've been. These seem simpler instead of holding the button for connectivity. (I think)
@@lylekehrer6159 the receiver controlled remote was out of stock when I ordered the winch. Definitely will be changing it , as you are right.I have a 6 channel remote, more than enough room for it.
On the winch if you use a snatch block
Don’t run over the chickens! Nice video.
เท่มากเลยครับ
You should do a tour or something to show case all off you rc cars/crawlers
Nice quality sounding guitar,was that you?
Awsome jeep 4x4... The body looks perfect except the front grill should be more original... Here as always we can see how it's hard to run a hard body without any damage.
Nice touch by the way the mat finishing over the glossy paint
It's not technically a "Jeep". You can remove the front grill cover and it looks exactly like one though. I'm hoping RC4WD is working on the licensing so we can actually call it what it obviously is.
I noticed that when you shift it the Transfer Case moves. I'm thinking some structural weakness may need to be addressed there.
The servo endpoints were not set from the factory so it was overextending (and actually blew the servo!). the chassis is actually quite solidly built
Is the new chassis replacing the original TF2 chassis ? Nice video 👌
6" action figures are a fair representation of the average human height in 1/10 scale and there is a massive selection of 6" figures available compared to other sizes. I'd be embarrassed to admit how long it took me to find that information and then select a figure. lol
nice review as usual, I find the car a little expensive........ Ciao Nanni
Gotta stick a reefs99 for that shifter. Will last longer than the rig! :)
Wow! Awesome! But how did you get yours so soon?! Are they starting to ship them already? Rc4wd told me they will start shipping them by the end of february! It look awesome! Cant wait to get my hands on mine!👍
RC4WD sent me a pre-release one to review.
