Bronco body for one my trx4s.

Lovely run out this morning, really enjoyed it

Adding more to my crawler course. Mixing cement, never fun.

Kit arrived from Amazon in the US in 4 days Also picked up a set of J Concepts Renegade tyres on Aggressor rims from MS And a nice AGFRC servo from SMD Motor and esc wise I’ve got a Castle Copperhead in my parts box, I’ll probably pair it to a Castle 1412 2100kv and run 3s No idea on the body yet, this is a longer term project so progress might slow after the initial kit/roller build 👍

making good progress on the wild one 🙂

It's alive! 😁 20240426_200206.mp4

Lowered the blazer high trail. Looks better than the stock height. Still needs a little more. Fitted some 1.9 beadlocks with the largest 1.9s I had. Removed the bump stops. The rear is fine. The front will need a short bump stop to stop the front tyres rubbing. Has a load of articulation.

Not sure i should flood a thread with pics after only being here a day or two but... Here's an overview of the DDF-350

Another do I need it "no" but do i want it "yes" purchase 😁

since the rc 10 is so expensive i went and bought a tamiya wild one instead :)

Driveshafts arrived Just need to set up the electrics and then she should be ready for a maiden run in the next few days 👍

Dumbo RC radio gear, gotta say first impressions are really good 👍

Took the G Wagon for an evening crawl on Hunstanton beach earlier and watch the sunset. Got a couple of nice shots as well. My fingers are just getting their feeling back now, it's quite cold out.

Wheels mount 👍

Cracked on with the TLR LMT build 👍

Been cracking on with the build, not one issue at all, pics to follow but for now I’ve been messing with the rims, I hated the centre caps being the same colour and having the screws stand out like a sore thumb So Rit Dyed them 👍

Yesterday i started on the TLR LMT build And this morning i took the Ecto build out for its maiden run 👍

Servo is excellent, loads of power Combo is amazing, the low control and drag brake and holding power is excellent, plenty enough wheel speed on 2s with a 18t pinion Tyres worked well Could do with a touch more weight up front, brass knuckles would sort that Overall I’m really happy with the build, one thing I’ve said to myself is this isn’t a shelf build, so it won’t be getting the normal AJ post running clean up, a quick brush down and that’s it 👍

TLR LMT Kit and set of Jconcepts Renegade tyres on Aggressor rims 👍

Afternoon all. It’s been a while.. I dug my 10.2 out of its retirement ‘home’ (a box in the spare room) the other day…and I’m thinking a resurrection is on the cards 🤔

Fitted the Bronco body. The front bumper is on backorder so I've fitted the one in the picture for now.

I cannot deny their following so they must be fine, BUT I just wish they had a different brand name……

SSD Driveshafts and a set of Beadlock wheels 👍

Radio gear arrived, still no sign of the driveshafts though 🤔 Gotta say I’m really impressed with the TX, certainly doesn’t come across as a £50 one 👍

More crawling. Put some steel beadlocks on the sendero. Definitely improved performance.

That’s the body finished Im really happy with it, I did mess up the window stickers, so tinted them instead

Finally fitted the heavy duty links, a twin motor winch and put 5000 weight silicon diff oil in the shocks to try and control the insane body roll. Off to SST pay and play tomorrow, can’t wait.

Looks good. I use the hycote stuff, I've had quite good results.

Outside, shot a thin coat of some random lexan paint as a primer and then some Hycote Matt black paint that was £6 off Amazon 👍

The fusion is amazing I can set cruise control on the TRX4 and TRX6 and it keeps same speed no matter what as with the TRX6 below

100% success 👍

These are my sweet little angels, Smokey and Caramel. This is Caramel. She is my snuggly sweet baby. This is Smokey. She is my little devil.

What a kit, I can see why it’s so expensive now, I didn’t realise all the cross bracing were aluminium Ive also built the shocks and diffs, they are all standard 1/8 buggy sized stuff

I ended up with the tyres I linked, they seem decent and I’ll be testing them tomorrow morning. I’m going to pick up a set of Rocko’s for my spare set of rims when they come back into stock 👍

Some figures from aliexpress. Ordered five random.

They spelt Klingon wrong

Springs and stock servo mount to lower a Trx4 high trail, Trx4m parts and brass hexes for the sendero. And check out the name on these injora tyres for the Trx4m...

A nice servo 👍

Na, can’t be arsed to take them off the steelies 😂

Few bits for the Losi 5ive. Changed around what i ordered, Taylor RC rear diff case, Taylor RC rear brace, Taylor RC titanium hinge pins, Bonehead RC rear hinge pin holders and some grease.

The bling wheels arrived, I’m going to save this till the Rocko tyres come back in stock 👍

Im hearing rumours that MJX are bringing out a 1/10th hypergo MT, and that it will trash Arrma bl3 stuff as full metal gears all way through and 4S out of box, should be a total winner

And Spektrum are charging £36 for a 2 ch lol

About a 5iver for the 6ch ones 👍

Got out my "paint booth" and painted a shell that I sold to my mate. Been a while so slowly getting back into it And a little shake down from the other day. Can't wait to take this for a little speed run 😍 20240414_194435.mp4

Probably about the same run time for me. One of mine has the traxxas esc with traxxas battery. I've not seen an adapter for sale anywhere. The injora esc comes with various connectors so you can use a Traxxas battery, any 2cell with a balance connector (which is really handy) or you can solder on which ever you prefer. Overlander do a 450 and 850 mah battery that fits directly in the Trx4m battery tray but doesn't have the stupid traxxas connector. I would highly recommend the injora esc for the reason mentioned and it's super smooth. I know you might not want to replace the esc but that option frees you up to use most batteries.

found this on modelsport you could make your own adapter lead out of it https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/injora-micro-bec-for-1-18-trx4m-1355126

Built some semi-truck wheels during the grand prix, my fingers hate me now 😁
