MrCake Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Can see these being very popular depending on the price! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex97 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 $150 is the rumoured price and out mid November, I'm in the states during November so might see if it's worth picking one up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpowell911 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I want this to be a proper scaled down TRX4 however the rumoured $150 price tag is making me think this just gonna be a scale looking toy 😕 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Actually looks better than expected….. https://m.traxxas.com/products/landing/trx-4m/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) Steel chassis rails, solid axles, 45degree steeeing and oil shocks? Seems too good to be true? Itll be £179ish here I guess. I was genuinely looking at an SCX24 or the FMS one that Tomley reviewed, but hmm Edited September 13, 2022 by Kpowell911 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorrylemming Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Clear windows on all the bodies! Is a 180 motor the normal size for something like this, seems a bit small? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m4inbrain Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 More likely around £200+, would be my pessimistic forecast. I do like it, a lot, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone-wolf Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 It does look nice but i find this size crawler to be rather limited, they get hung up on small stones and stuff real easy hence my 1/16th is up for sale 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to set up a quick course with household stuff. I'm a "nice weather trail-driver", don't like going out in the rain, perfect for a quick fix in winter instead of freezing my jewels off outside. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex97 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I know the current exchange rate is poor however £30 more than the dollar price isn't great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4inbrain Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 *cough* drag slash *cough* I actually think it's a surprisingly decent priced rig by Traxxas, for once. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSeaRC Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Looks like a positive development. 1:18 is a better scale than 1:24 in my opinion as the SCX24 and Mini-Z are just a little bit too small and 1:18 is a good compromise. I suppose it will compete against the FMS range of products and from what I see, the specification looks good, the scale realism looks great and the price is not too bad. Nowadays, most products of US origin are more expensive in Pounds than Dollars unfortunately. For Traxxas, I'm sure it will be a great product to bring new customers to the brand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
