Looking real good! Curious to know, are all the lights including the roof light bar simply plugged into the stock ESC? Or do you have some custom wiring done?
I went and found a short y style plug for 3 wire type connector and i used one of the two slots on the stock esc to plug so it automatically gave me two more slots plus the one on the esc to make it 3 all u need is a Y style 3 wire plug to make it work the only mods i really did were drill a small hole on the roof of the trx4m defender to run the light bar cables into the connector i also had to trim off the extra tab on the traxxas connector to fit the stock fog lights on to the y cable u also will need to remove the plug head from the cables on the light bar to run the wires through the small hole unless u wanna drill a dime sized hole on your trx4m defender/bronco roof then u wont have to remove it but if u do u will have to remove the plug ends from the plastic connector can be a bit tricky you just gotta find the little lock tabs on the connector and lift em up very carefully without breaking them to slide out the connector ends then simply snap back in after running your cables thru the small hole on the roof other than that it was a simple conversion 👍
Thanks very much !! Yeah it climbs remarkably well but i do have alot of brass and metal under that body front and rear brass diff covers brass beadlock inner rings brass front steering link steel trans gears they are the stock trail gears but steel and sealed ball bearings in the trans and also steel dif gears and steel driveshafts and and all metal gear steering servo and well the bash guards are also stainless steel its a heavy rig thats why i ended up buying oil filled aluminum shocks for adjustability all the weight on the rack was literally slamming the whole rear en down no suspension whatsoever so the adjustable shocks with heavy 60 weight oil helps balance it all out !
Nice built! Where did you got all the lugage on the top? I have a defender on the way! Does the spare plastic tire on the back can ve unbolted? Would like to fit a real rc tire. Wit would lok sick 😊
And yes the spare tire cover can be removed and u can put a real tire in ! There is a screw behind the sticker just peel the sticker and u will have access to the screw behind it
Great run with the Trx4m! It sure looks awesome! Btw where did you get the rear mudflaps from? They look really cool and I would definetely want to get a pair for my rig🙂 as always thank you for sharing and have a great sunday my friend 👍
I got em thru meus racing at amazon just write trx4m DEFENDER mud flaps and they should appear right away remember its the meus racing brand and it comes with 4 mud flaps for front and rear i took the front ones out because the larger tire rubbed preety good when i turned with it they work fine with standard 1inch tires but if u get the larger tires then its definitely gonna rub just be aware but other than that with standard tires it should turn fine
No just stock metal trail gears i swaped the stock plastic trail gears with metal ones and bearings in the trans helped loosen up the trans a bit and i got the metal gears from meus racing thru amazon
You can definitely drive slower if u put the low range gears in it u have to buy them separately i have the trail gears so yes it does act up for sure its a bit tricky to control on slow crawls but fast enough for me to make video without speeding the cam up
I liked this vid.Nice change from the very slow watching paint dry rock crawl.👍🏼
Thanks man much appreciated 👍

I was surprised how much climb ability you had with cargo on your rack. Another great video!

Thanks alot the luggage on top u can find in amazon just search 1/18 scale accessories for trx4m
And yes the spare tire cover can be removed and u can put a real tire in ! There is a screw behind the sticker just peel the sticker and u will have access to the screw behind it
@@NWrcadventures Thanks for the reply buddy! Great clips you have here. Good work!
Thanks man much appreciated brother 👍
me randomly finding this video on my feed, seeing orenco woods park, Im like I just Got a TRX4m And I know where that is lol
Awesome your a local and yes its a nice park to trail in i like it there but besides orenco woods theres lots of fun places to trail/scale and crawl
@NWrcadventures yea I can see that I just needa find em around here
@@Drexfpv03 u dont need to goo too far to find some good spots to run the TRX4M around their everywhere hehe 👍
Great run with the Trx4m! It sure looks awesome! Btw where did you get the rear mudflaps from? They look really cool and I would definetely want to get a pair for my rig🙂 as always thank you for sharing and have a great sunday my friend 👍

Does it have an interior in there? Or just a driver dude? Nice build btw :)
No interior i strapped a driver to the chassis frame untill i can actually find an interior which hasnt been eazy 👍
@NORTHWEST RC ADVENTURES i found them on line 3d printed and they sell the print for like 8 bucks
Awesome good to know what web site did u find em at ?
@NORTHWEST RC ADVENTURES i just looked up "trx4m defender interior." theres some better, some worse looking ones, but they're there
@@jackpanula9975 cool thanks bud ill look into it thanks for the heads up 👍
She's moving pretty fast there! Are you running brushless?
No just stock metal trail gears i swaped the stock plastic trail gears with metal ones and bearings in the trans helped loosen up the trans a bit and i got the metal gears from meus racing thru amazon
Hi, I have a doubt. Can you drive slower or does the car always have such abrupt reactions?
You can definitely drive slower if u put the low range gears in it u have to buy them separately i have the trail gears so yes it does act up for sure its a bit tricky to control on slow crawls but fast enough for me to make video without speeding the cam up
Great video !
Thanks alot im happy u liked it !
