    I’m definitely going to look into the brushless system you’re talking about

      They also have a hobby wing fusion SE that is cheaper but just as good! Found out about it after the fusion pro upgrade 😂

    Enjoyed the video. The K10 High Trail is My least favorite Traxxas RC to drive. Yes, weight is needed down low, and when You added the much needed weight, the problem that the truck suffers from becomes EVEN more obvious. The body design (front fender wells in particular) and the 2.2 tires do NOT complement one another. Body rubs from the slightest of articulations are annoying and the more articulation the louder and more body rubbing. Depending on the angle of articulation, body rubbing does and will stop the servo from turning the tires in any direction, which leads to servo burnout. The Defender with the same amount of brass added and minus the weighted hub extenders, run circles around the K10 (with 80% less body rub.) IMO, this truck is JUST TOO nice looking for Me to even consider modifying the body, which is one of the few reason why I chose to purchase the truck. The Traxxas TRX4 that I enjoy driving most though has to go the TRX4 Sport. I dunno why, but it is My favorite Traxxas crawler. I'm knocking Traxxas or any of their other vehicles, but the K10 HT has been the most frustrating for Me. I require "performance" in addition to aesthetics and spec sheet data. Remove the body, its beast, BUT NO K10!!!! At a price point of $549.00 and minus the roll cage light bar that is standard on the Ford HT version, body rubbing should not be this terrible, I understand and except some, but this is just TOO ridiculous.

    As I see it, its okay to hate a little bit! The only reason why I would say this. Because I am a Chevy fan boy!!! And I bought the black special edition Ford F-150 XLT 😈 I hate the square fender wells on the Chevy!!! And seriously love the Ford fender wells 😍 So I have to build my Ford tough, with Chevy stuff!!!!!

    I also have the K10 version of the High Trail. My mods are very close to yours, from the hub extenders to the down low weight to a fusion as well. I just want to add that for the price the 1200kv fusion SE is a very good fit for this platform. I run somewhere in the neighborhood of 22 fusions in my different vehicles and know how nice the pro 2300kv is, but in this vehicle the 1200 SE works well. Also, I found very quickly that the stock servo wasn't up to the task and on a budget went with the 25kg pro from Amazon and have found it to be a great alternative to stock.

      It’s the nature of the hobby and it depends on what you are using it for. My buddy’s did really well stock as a trail truck. It would walk over stuff I’d have to bump over. He ended up adding a whole bunch of weight to it anyway.

I really like Reefs servos. I seem to always have good luck with them and they never disappoint. Hope that helps 😊

    Nice video, thanks for the info. I have one but still running the brushed hobbywing 555 motor. I do have the fusion family and also the XE for crawlers, but how do i install and match the system with the traxxas lighting kit? The light kit requires a couple of wires to be attached in between motor and and the esc, how do i do that with the fusion? Did you get the light kit on the truck with the fusion still in? I need some pointers here, thanks!

    • @RCprincess24
      @RCprincess24  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I completely removed all those wires and used a red JST plug to power the pro scale lights, not always perfect but works well most of the time. I have a video on my channel th-cam.com/video/fFt0VdENr9A/w-d-xo.html where I installed a hobby wing in my TRX4 sport. Not a high trail, but same concept. 😊

    Swap the shock oil to 10w or 15w. Make sure the springs coilovers are not that tight. Just snug enough for the spring, then loosen the lower caps on the shocks as they come too tight and smash the o rings. Last, cut off the shock limiters, they look like bumpstopa from real cars

      So I have not tried 1.9s on my high trails. On my lifted bronco I am running the low profile Hyrax. They are still 2.2s but with almost no body rub. If you throw 1.9s on my only concern would be the loss of ground clearance. Hope that helps 😊
