The Traxxas TRX-4 is all about adventure. Whether you’re cruising down the trail or carving your own path up and over rocks, this rig is built to perform in just about any condition. In their latest video, Traxxas treks into the wilderness with their stunning blue TRX-4 Land Rover Defender. Water, rocks, tree roots, and a stream crossing were no match [...]
Traxxas has released a new tire option for the TRX-4, aimed at giving your rig a low-profile, modern look when out on the trail. Their Canyon RT Tires (#8871) will take a 2.2″ wheel but have the same outer diameter as most 1.9″ crawler tires. Originally available on the TRX-6, Traxxas is now making these tires available for four-wheeled trail machines. [...]
Hello and welcome to this week’s Everybody’s Scalin’. It has been super busy in the scale shop with multiple projects going on. With that being said, I think its time for a little shop talk.First up is the Gmade Buffalo, this build was a lot of fun and everything went together smooth. I am immensely proud of how well the [...]
After several weeks of gloomy skies, wet weather and cold temperatures, the midwestern early-winter broke for a fantastic Sunday afternoon. The weather was so nice that I did something that I haven’t for quite a while- went on a Missouri River trail run. My “White Wolf” Traxxas TRX-4 Sport was just dying to hit a mud hole, and that would [...]
It’s been a minute since we last talked about my Traxxas TRX-4 Monster Truck project, and I wanted to issue an update! So when I last talked about this truck back in March, I had done up a Bronco body for it and dubbed it High Horse. The problem is that while the body looked good while the truck was static, [...]
Has anyone seen any RTR 6×6’s lately? It’s going to be an all out crawler war this Christmas with Traxxas coming out with the TRX-6. Fittingly enough I was already working on this weeks post before Traxxas did their “mic drop” and got the crawler world in a feeding frenzy. As soon as we know more info about the Traxxas [...]
If for some reason you haven’t heard the news, the Traxxas TRX-4 won the scale bracket for March Bash-ness 2019!

You have from now till 4/23/2019 and Midnight [...]
Last week I started the transformation of a Traxxas TRX-4 Sport to an old school monster truck. (P.S. if you missed my post last week, now would be a good time to check it out). In that post I never actually mentioned what body I was going to use, but if you took a hint from the title of the [...]
I tend to move quickly when I get really motivated by a project. Last week I wrote about wanting to building an old school style monster truck for the trail, this week the vehicle is sitting on my bench and nearly complete! So the real idea behind this whole “monster truck truck” deal is a throwback to the original monster trucks [...]
It’s that magical time again where the ice is FINALLY thawing and hints of green are starting to show in the grass. As I write this, it’s actually 60 degrees here in St. Louis (ok, it’s also stormy as heck, but I won’t complain about the temp!). I’m getting the itch to do some sort of Spring project! Despite all these [...]
We know the Traxxas TRX-4 RTR is a capable rig, we have seen TONS of them both on the trails and in comps. Now you have the choice to build it from the ground up which is an awesome way to learn everything there is to know about the truck for if and when you need to work on it. [...]
A new Traxxas TRX-4 Sport Kit is coming! We dubbed it the Adventure Kit around the office because it comes with some sweet accessories, but it’s officially the ‘Sport Kit’. We don’t have all the details, but it looks like it will come as a completely un-assembled kit with a clear body and cool accessories like the fuel tanks, [...]
The folks over at Traxxas have put up a couple of really cool articles on a new built they are doing, to help show how and make the Ultimate Trail Truck using the TRX-4. I’m not sure how many parts it’s going to be, but they have posted the first two so far, and the truck is looking amazing [...]

What’s up everybody, what a crazy week it has been! Last Sunday I had the Big Squid crew over for some RC shenanigans. Our man Thomas is state side from Germany and he wanted to check out the off-road park. For about two weeks I was story boarding a RC film in my head we could do while he was [...]
