[My hard body builds]

Here's Another. Injora cherokee cage body. Initially bought this body for a Trx4. You would need to cut down the side plates or fabricate something to fill the gap. 

I sat the body on one of my lcg rigs and it looked like an easy fit. 

I used an injora cherokee front bumper, scx10 injora side plates, magnetic mounts on the front and a basic hinge on the rear. 

There's a huge void at the rear of the cab. There is a part that can be 3d printed. If anyone could help me out with that please let me know. 

I'm going to use a offcut of lexan.

Thanks👍

I'm not really a fan of the full throttle method but that particular bit is very slippy, even for the sticky tyres. 

Some times you have to give it full beans

A few videos

Finished off for now the Trx4m IR40. 

There's plenty of room under the body to hide the esc. A bracket above the battery tray would be ideal. 

The injora esc is super smooth low down, after another test today I'm happy with it and will definitely get another. 

The clipless body is good, I had to file a little off the injora carbon chassis to fit front bumper and the rear hinge nothing major.

Finished off, well for now the Trx4m IR40 truck and gave it a little test on my very slippy in a lot of places crawler course. 

Looks fairly dry in the picture, but there's loads of moss and damp. 

[The Traxxas trx4m owners thread]

I've given the injora esc a little test. 

Very nice so far. I've only used a 2s lipo so far. They are 3s capable. 

I had the crawler gears in the gearbox with the Injora 48t motor. 

The low down control is very good, I'll have to give it a comparison to the hobbywing but I'm sure it's smoother. 

Really nice looking compact esc. 

I saw a YouTube video a good few months ago and the first version of version needed some improvement. 

I left it a while until I thought it was sorted. 

I definitely recommend one for your Trx4m, ax24, fcx24 or other mini crawler. 

I'm probably going to get a few more. 

I'll try and get some videos on my crawler course.

@Lone-wolfThanks mate 👍. Went together very nice.

I'm really liking the traxxas trx4m &  Trx4 bodies, particularly the Ford and chevy trucks. 

 

[Traxxas Trx4m Chevy so far……]

@Gaz! That's brilliant mate, great job👍

[The Traxxas trx4m owners thread]

Nearly finished the Injora IR40 truck. 

A bit of soldering and fit the driveshafts. 

I've used a injora defender carbon chassis, bronco / defender length links front and rear with a few mil of spacing. I'm going to get longer rears, they'll fit no problems. 

Looks pretty good. 

Need to solder a Traxxas Trx4m motor connector back on the motor to connect it to the injora esc. 

 

[What did you do to your model today?]

Nearly finished the Injora IR40 truck. 

Looks pretty cool with the big 70mm tyres. 

 

[What did you do to your model today?]

Fitted some brass parts to one of the trx4s. Portal weights and diff covers. 

Both injora and fit perfectly. 

 

[TrailFinder 2 tips for first timer]

Looking amazing! Good job👍

[FTX Vantage 3s problems]

You may need to try a smaller pinion gear. Sounds like the esc is drawing to many amps. Volt up, gear down 👍. 

[What did you do to your model today?]

Removing the chrome from the bumpers, mirrors, grill and roll bar on my Trx4. 

I did this on my Trx4m and it worked great. 

It's looking like some parts are black, so that's good and the rest will be getting painted black. 

 

[What did the postie bring you today?]

Desert lizard 110mm shocks. I really like those shocks, got several sets. 

The 110mm are for trying out on my Trx4 high trail, gonna see what it looks like lowered on 1.9s. 

A set of injora steel deep dish wheels, Trx4 bumper posts and some black wheel nuts, 10 for about £2.50 ish, good value and good wheel nuts. 

[What did the postie bring you today?]

@Lone-wolf it's another Trx4. It turned up in an ftx box.

@Yrkoon Thanks mate👍

I'm sure they won't have a problem with that.

👍 Get some pictures up when you get chance. 

[What did you do to your model today?]

@Lone-wolfBeen over to Shipley Glen a few times, pretty good for the crawlers 👍

Here's a quick video of it going down part of my crawler course. 

Yes, I've already scratched it.

Works fine for me and it's free. 

[My hard body builds]

I've always really liked hard bodies but I've always been more performance over looks with my crawlers. 

I got a wrangler hard body about a year ago and planned to do it in the winter. 

After building and fitting it to one of my scx10's, I loved it. It obviously effects the centre of gravity but I think it's well worth it. 

So one thing leads to another and now I've got about five hard body builds on the go. 

Here's one... 

This one is the leftover chassis from my scx10 ii. Incredibly noisy scx10ii kit gearbox (smooth as you like just noisy). 

Fusion Pro motor/esc, desert lizard 90mm internal sprung shocks. 

Cranked stainless links, four link with ams. I've done some of the other builds with a chassis mounted servo for the scale look, I just don't like them.

Injora jeep cherokee 313mm body, injora cherokee front bumper, painted Tamiya drab olive. Magnets on the front and you can kinda use the stock mounts supplied with the body as a hinge. 

I've given this a little test, drives pretty good. Next is adjustable shock towers on the rear to adjust the height, inner arches on the front need fitting, and fit the moulded lexan interior supplied with the kit.

[Hobbywing BL60 sensored esc programming problem]

I like how the outlaw lifts a front wheel, part of the character of the truck. Trophy trucks do it and it just looks cool. But I do get how some fit the anti roll bars. 

When changing the settings with the programming card are you OK-ING  it?
