  • RC4WD is known for delivering super scale looking radio control vehicles that perform like their full scale counterparts out on the trails. Not only do they deliver some great machines, but they also offer an amazing selection of scale accessories. Now, they’ve once again used all of their strengths and connections and have released possibly the perfect ready to run trail rig, the Marlin Crawlers Trail Finder 2. This awesome looking machine is modeled after the real Marlin Crawlers off-road truck. From it’s red body, to the beadlock wheels, to the steel front bumper, graphics and bed details. It certainly looks like an amazing off-road machine and it’s back up with proven chassis and axle components. We got our hands on one, go over some of its important features and then give it the test at the trail truck courses at RC Madness in Enfield, CT.

    nice video thanks for helping me make up my mind I was going to go with axial scx 10 II but I love the look of the marlin crawler trail finder 2 rtr and with all the quality parts and attention to detail this truck is the clear winner for me very nice looking crawler

  • @josephdrummond4376
    @josephdrummond4376 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    It is amazing, the suspension and tires soften up so it just keeps getting better. It keeps right up with my trx4 and my wraith neither are stock.

    The marlin crawler is an awesome rig, I love mine the AA batteries that came with for the radio they didn't last very long they went dead before the battery in the truck I couldn't believe it well I like copperhead batteries inlays. I did one upgrade I put on the revolver shackles Front and backAnd I put on the the boxes just in the back Took out the inner springs on the back shocks left to front springs in the shock it performs very well thought I'd share. PS third AA batteries I don't know they must been laying around for a while they didn't even make one hour runtime

    • @rcdriver
      @rcdriver  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Our AA's lasted a bit longer. Maybe yours were laying around longer like you said.

  • @jamesballacchino3091
    @jamesballacchino3091 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just got this rtr marlin crawler very impressive. The one design defect is front tire rub against the truck body only a few people mention it on these reviews. Why was this not addressed by the manufacturer since it’s a rtr and now how do you correct this and You should not need to cut the body or buy extra parts. If I were in charge of marketing this model I would certainly include parts necessary to resolve this issue. So my question is how do you resolve this if the manufacturer does nothing and sticks me for extra parts and cost. Btw I wrote the manufacturer. Your response is welcome. Thank you

  • @JoseHernandez-yv3nt
    @JoseHernandez-yv3nt 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    It is possible install links in order to improve the articulation?

  • @g-man329

    Would you pick this or a Redcat Gen 8 Axe Edition? Both are the same price.

  • @overlandoff-road8220
    @overlandoff-road8220 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Can you gear it lower to slow it down? That seems more like a hopper than a crawler. Put dual tc cases in that puppy!

  • @SuperSebastian213
    @SuperSebastian213 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Suspension stiffer than my morning wood

  • @kennethschuessler3390
    @kennethschuessler3390 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Those ring and pinions will stop fast. But then you get to upgrade to helical gears.

  • @dwaynebaker8733
    @dwaynebaker8733 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    How does this perform compared too axial, and trx-4?

    • @writedeanb
      @writedeanb 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dwayne Baker - those trucks are bigger with 2.2 tires. This truck has 1.7 tires so it’s not an apples to apples comparison. All are good in their own way. I like how realistic this truck is.

    • @scunyon
      @scunyon 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      They have 1.9's not 2.2's. They're pretty comparable other than they run in different classes and the Marlin is leaf sprung as opposed to the linked Axial and TRX-4.

    • @colin-jc1el
      @colin-jc1el 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      But you can always go to RC4wd.com and they have a lot of upgrades. They have 4 Linked upgrades and stuff like that

    • @ToGrimmToWin
      @ToGrimmToWin 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jahmen RC no but the kits less than 20usd on tower also the bench seat is less than that I think the 2 combined are under 30usd which isn't bad. also the remote has the switch for a 3rd channel so you can hook up the wench and controll it with the remote

  • @sammygonzalez7627
    @sammygonzalez7627 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Damn you can clearly see how stiff it really is... should try removing one of those leaf spring

  • @crawlhardrc3508
    @crawlhardrc3508 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    maybe a starter rig for class 1 but out of the box the performance just isn't there compared to the competition

  • @brennoncantrell5867
    @brennoncantrell5867 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Needs coil springs

    • @chasekrueger5387
      @chasekrueger5387 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      What are "coil springs"? Its called a 4 link settup

  • @richardflaviani2726

  • @chadanderson2486
    @chadanderson2486 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just takes proper setup. Leaf springs will never perform as well as coils n links but LCG is key to any crawler

  • @ka4172
    @ka4172 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is not a Marlin Crawler "worthy" ,Marlins Hilux can crawl extreme low only a good brushless set like the Hobbywing AXE make this crawl "extra low" worthy i think.

  • @kymbo72
    @kymbo72 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just don't get how slowly crawling over rocks is any fun.

    • @writedeanb
      @writedeanb 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      kymbo72 - I thought the same until I tried it. You really need a lot of skill to navigate a course.

    • @utrak
      @utrak 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I was the same until I tried it. Now my trail/crawler trucks are my favorites, the fast bashers come second. I guess it helps if you're an outdoors hiking type person to begin with.

  • @miketye2805
    @miketye2805 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    For the quality of parts this things performs terrible. Looks like you were driving on pogo sticks. Wanted to flip over every chance it got and the front bumper catches on everything holding it up. Great looking truck but I would not spend $600 on this. Not a chance
