My first Traxxas. Chose because wanted one portal truck. Impressed with the attention to detail. Some things they do that other mfg. do not. Realize this may only be on this model. But their design has small differences that are evident if you own other brands.
Nice Body. Nice single speed. Simple. Less money. I'm not into 2 speed (though I own a couple). No DIG. No locking/unlocking riffs. No cables...
Simple. Reliable. You get all the high tech clearance with portals without the "fluff".
Added heavier wheels. Some brass.
Extremely happy...
A-Main is great company.
This thing is crazy durable! I’ve bashed and crawled this thing for a half a year now and haven’t broke a single thing. I’ve had two bearings lock on me due to a ton of mud but all I needed was to clean the two. Very capable right out of the box and insanely reliable!
Great truck and runs well but defenitly upgrade the servo first. It will burn out quickly, but dont be disscuriged by the servo most stock servos areant good anyway.
New to RC, was wheeling a scx24 and loving it before the motor died so I figured I’d replace and upgrade and wow this thing is insane. If you’re on the fence about ordering this, just do it! (I will fix the scx24).
For my first Crawler it was amazing, went out this last Sunday 10-10-21 for the first time and had a blast with some friends. Normally I am a basher but I will be doing more crawling.
My son and I are having a blast with our trx-4 going to be getting another one very soon.
Great peformance out of the box. Whith a few upgrades is awesome
The TRX4 Sport has been great. The support of both amain and Traxxas convinced me on the purchase. Back in 86/87 I raced Tamiya vehicle's and just recently got back into the RC world. Rock crawling seems to be my thing now and the TRX4 Sport has performed flawlessly. I highly recommend this vehicle, you wont be disappointed.
Very nice right out of the box. Traxxas hit a Home Run with this truck. I did opt for the TRX-4 two speed tranny, and some other upgrades before I hit the trails. the expedition rack and lights are also a nice addition and really make it pop. Looking to get a second. You will not be disappointed if you get this truck.
Really good car out of the box it just needs a couple of things to get going but it's all stable and you can take it out the next day and you better get rid of your for it
Excellent truck. Traxxas has done an amazing job. Look at the reviews on the web, no body could complain about this truck. Only complain is that my unit came with a bit noisy transmission, a small clicky sound. Called Traxxas and the support guy was not that kind. Anyway, I am planning on opening the transmission and do some maintenance. Other than that is a great car.
Extremely capable out of the box. Even more fun with mods/upgrades.
I chose the TRX-4 Sport because out of the box it is compatible with other 1/10 bodies. (The defender has a longer wheelbase, and the bronco/blazer have inner fenders that would need to be cut off).
The best mod you can do to a TRX-4 out of the box is removing the one of the center knobs from the stock tires. The stock tires are very good on their own, especially after the mod. Google/youtube it. Many people will teach you. You just need a sharp blade to cut off the knobs.
First and foremost, Amain was awesome. This was not my first experience with them, and is unlikely to be my last. Shipping was quicker than expected, the package arrived undamaged and I was like a little kid the rest of the day. :-)
I had researched crawlers for a few days before buying this one. I looked at Axial first because I knew the name and they are quality. Eventually I decided upon the TRX-4. I knew I liked the idea of portal axles, this was ready to run and all for a relatively good price. I have never owned a Traxxas product before, and I must say I am impressed. The overall quality has been exemplary, and I am very pleased. The truck looked great right out of the box. I bought the tan because it matched my truck, and even the nose resembles my truck. It's stance is perfect, and the running gear is great for ready to run. This thing was much faster than I expected. I ran it a few times myself, and then I let my boss's four year old son drive it. This is a VERY DURABLE TRUCK. We also found out how powerful the stock motor is as well. He got it stuck under a corn hole board that I had made years ago. We are talking about a heavy one made from 2x4's and 3/4" birch plywood. The truck moved it all the way over to the other corn hole board. That is nearly 30 feet! The truck was none the worse for wear either! That is tough and powerful in my book.
The main reasons I wanted this truck were to drive around the backyard chasing my dogs, and just to have some fun during this whole mess going on in the world. In a few short weeks of drive time I am already looking into building a crawler course in the backyard. Plus, I have already bought some upgrades. I am going to try out a Holmes Hobbies trail master brushed motor, and Hobbywing 1080 brushed esc. For about $65 it seems like a hard to beat combination. I also have a Hobbywing brushless esc and Team Brood brushless motor combo I am going to try. I am looking into the Bowhouse LCG battery tray as well.
Overall, I am very impressed with this truck. It is a great entry into the world of rock crawler/scale truck world. It is very tough, surprisingly fast and has huge parts support system. This was a great choice in my book.
Love it. Traxxas has been innovative for many years now. Bought my first traxxas in the late 80s(Sledge Hammer) and many more since. Amain Hobbies rocks!
