    I did one of these myself Running the 1.3 Cling on tires with the 1.3 Injora Modular wheels and the injora diamond portal axles and it has no tire rub issues what so ever Also added a 2speed fcx18 transmission and the injora purple brushless system and its a blast to drive. Oh also replaced the rear body clip/arm with a set of magnets so easy on & off and hold great

    Just purchased the black and orange striped body. By eliminating the driver interior, that will make it easier for battery placement. I threw that dopey rubber strap away as soon as I purchased my Bronco & replaced it with Velcro. Also will be installing the MB100 ESC for quieter running...should be a cool rig.

    Thanks for the video! It be cool if they came out with this body style that just clips into the trx4m clipless design.... one of my favorite parts about the trx4m is how easy it is to take the body on and off.... while the cage looks cool, i would prefer a simulated one that clips on rather than a complete chasis! Thanks again for the great video!

    To mount the battery, I also used Velcro. I velcro’d the cockpit up front and used one screw for the back, so it’s a quick turn and pull to move the cockpit and insert or remove battery.

    Mine is coming apart and the parts are going on a IR60 I like it better than the donor Injora jeep and the wheelbase should match. This kit included Defender/Bronco links which I already have and on throwing the geometry off, instead of the right links. An they print an exclamation point at the end of printing that they include the wrong size links! That will leave me with nothing much for this but the return will fund that IR60 body and chassis.

    Sharp, I think I would love that is it was some type of metal.... I love as much metal components as possible on my TRX4M ... I think the metal links are the only thing left I didnt change, I got the Meus axles from you, I have metal gears, trans, driveshafts, Shocks, servo mount, belly, Wheels, steering links.... and some other stuff I cant remember

    For me, the install is more than building the kit contents, it's the whole project. You skipped over almost all of it, so this wasn't of use to me. The result is me not buying it. If it's so easy, why not show us? Also, having the rest of the components highly modified doesn't show me how the kit performs after a stock installation, another reason not to buy. I like Meus products, and just installed a set of really nice wheels on my SCX10.3 CJ-7. Really nice quality stuff. Maybe in the future you could take us through the whole process, that would be very appreciated. Thanks for showing how cool it looks when completed 👍

    For all of the people complaining about the battery, could you not put the ESC under the interior and put the battery in the back? Use a battery extension and then you could plug and unplug it from the rear.

    • @CapeCrawlers
      @CapeCrawlers  3 місяці тому +1

      Certainly could. I like the battery being down low for the weight distribution so I’ll suffer through the tricky access

      @@CapeCrawlers that’s very fair. I charged the battery in my tarantula without removing it for the same reasons! Just an option for the people shying away from this chassis for that reason.
