That was a fantastic video. The speed was just right to get the water moving in a realistic way. And the rain x seemed to hold up better than the wipers. At least you can put in the dash now.
Love the square body
Oh man this has to be the best mud boggin rc video on UA-cam by far. Love everything about this build such realistic and scale realism
Glad you liked it!
Love the slow motion it allows you time to see the suspension work and mud fly. Also love that K5 body. Whole truck looks great 👍
Thanks 👍
Vunedabar. Man I seriously dig it.
Thanks!
Man, sorry to keep you waiting, I know how important my comments are 😁🤣.
This looks great
I agree the wipers don't "need" to be there.
Great work.
Love mud
All my trucks are built for mud and water haha.
But I got my step dad's gmade sawback.
Willy's style body, and leaf springs.
So that may be built as a mud style truck.
I'm getting a ar44 conversion kit, and what ever else I can get.
Found a rc4wd winch at a flee market.
But really all my rigs are built to hit mud and water.... like alot.
Hahaha
Great work man
Sounds like a fun project! Thanks for watching Blind Guy!
I thoroughly appreciate when somebody says they’re gonna get muddy and they’re actually in mud and not wet sand.
You don’t need windshield Wipers…you need windshield Shovels! Nice and muddy man!
😂 thanks!
Oh yeah, that's real dirty...🤘🏼🤪💯✔️
LOL those wipers are hilarious. Also like how the windshield even has the wiper streaks
😂 Thanks for watching!
This truck is perfect! I grew up watching the mud trucks in SoCal (Azusa Canyon) and this thing is a dead ringer from some of the trucks I used to watch. Great job!!
Thanks for watching!
The proportion of the wheels/tires/lift/body looks spot on. I have no use for one of these but this makes me want to build one just for workbench staring purposes. 👍🏻👍🏻
This absolutely makes me want to build a mud truck. Was not really something on my radar but this turned out super awesome, and the wipers are a very very nice touch.
Thanks for watching and I'm glad that you it inspired you to get one of your own!
Your a 77, I’m a 74. That’s how I remember a proper mud truck 💪🏼 Rad job Matt !
Thank you!
F'ing SWEET!!!!! Just bought this same body, arrives tomorrow can't wait. & can't wait to do all the upgrades either. Used to have a real K5 years ago & sure do miss it! Just badass all the way around, no one can argue that! Nice job!!
Cool! Enjoy it!
Absolutely fantastic video! Perfect mud for the truck made for a really great look. The tires and wheels look fantastic as well and I do not envy you cleaning it up later.
Thank you! You're not going to help me clean it up? 😂
@@scalebuildersguild Oh of course I’d love to help. It’s just that you’re up there and I’m down here 😭
THE SICKEST R/C MUD TRUCK I HAVE EVER SEEN!! EXCELLENT VIDEO HOSS!! KEEP YOUR VIDEOS A’COMIN, FANS LIKE MYSELF, WE WILL BE WATCHIN!!
I've been wanting to do a trx4 mudtruck since your first video. I'm thinkn when its time I will do the sport. love the truck man !
Good choice to keep it cheap! Thanks for watching!
Certainly more fun for me to watch someone else take their rig mudding than to have to do so myself and clean up my own! Good stuff
Hell yeah!!! I've been waiting to see this truck in action for ages. Those beadlocks 🤤
For a 1 man video crew and driver you shoot some great footage 👏 👌 👍
Thank you!
Man, gotta hand it to ya. You’re running videos never disappoint. The music and shot composition were amazing. Great job!
Oh Yeah, I thought of a mud Truck. I went a bit old school using an ax10 and Putting a Jeep Hard Body on top with big tires. Y'know the old back Garage Mud truck. Grab the dozen beer and meet ya down at the local mud-hole truck.. LMAO.. Awesome run matt. Enjoyed it. :)
It's the little things. Cool content....again. Thank you for your hours of work to entertain us for a little while.
Thank YOU for watching!
Very very nice. I started a lifted K5 just a week before yours went to video. You got me to change my tires. As always great video!
Glad I could help, and thanks for watching!
Fantastic slow-mo footage. I wouldn't have wanted to get that beautiful truck dirty lol but I love watching you send them. Keep up the great content Sir.
Thanks for watching!
This is the first mud truck that I truly like (I’m more of a crawler kinda guy)
Btw: I chose to watch this before the scale news update, SBG rules
Thanks! I'm more of a crawler guy too (obvs), but this was fun to build and drive.
Btw: I'm glad you have your priorities straight re: watching my video first 😂.
@@scalebuildersguild yep your vid’s are the best, I always look forward to them!
Yep ,got an original scx10 chassis with 10ii axles and king fling tires ,runs on traxxas 3s velineon system,also has a blazer body painted just like the real one I used to have ,it originally had 1.9 biggers on it before I converted to new set up
Really cool video I’m finally in the homestretch on my k5 blazer, but mine went further then I originally planned. I went with full metal rock sliders and roof rack, foldable mirrors, full skid plates, interior, suspension lift kit, bead lock wheels from rc4wd and Mickey Thompson mt’s, led light kit, proline shocks, and all the detail bits and pieces. I honestly gotta say though I’m thoroughly pleased with the traxxas k5, it’s reliable and performs really well.
No complaints here! It sounds like a great build... thanks for watching!
Thanks I got some ideas from your build the went from there
I gotta say that when the truck is coming at you that front end end perfect. Like the grill and light are perfect. Good luck cleaning that thing, lol.
I'll be using my wife's toothbrush to clean it... don't tell her. 😂
That is a cool looking rig. The wipers are kinda cool, they work just as well as the real thing in mud. Smear more then wipe, that is worth 100 scale points at your next comp!!!!👍👍👍
Good video Matt. The wipers (for video's sake) add a nice detail. The tires seem too self-clean really well. I'm not a mud guy but do appreciate the effort you put into the project. As always job well done.
Cheers!!!
Thanks 👍
Love playing in the mud. My mud truck is based on a massaged smt10 with a 72 chevy truck body. It great fun.
Brilliant video, the wipers look great and such a neat idea. Love the mud truck and it looks the business with the 2.2's. 👍😎💪 Mudding has to be one of my favourite things to do with my RC'S. 👍😎
That looks freaking awesome. Please do more things of this nature just for fun. Old school monster truck etc. love it
Awesome you try out new and different rc avenues on the channel, bashing, micro rc and this time, mudding! Truck looks right at home in the mud. As always, thank you 😎
I like trying new things and keeping y'all entertained! Thanks for watching!
That was well worth the wait! I have the same truck and after watching yours get covered in mud I’m rethinking weather I should do the same lol! Great job the filming was awesome 👏…..
Awesome truck great video got an adrenaline rush just watching lol 😆
I picked up a used SMT10 for a mega mid truck. The body is a Ford Raptor for an Emaxx, rolling on Fling Kings powered by a Mamba X system.
just got mine done, thanx for the videos, been helpful! I did install a winch, it is internal and the fairlead is were the front license plate is!
Glad I helped inspire. Sounds like a cool build. Thanks for watching!
I HATE cleaning mud. That being said...
Damn you! Lol.. now I need to build one! That thing is absolutely awesome! Style, execution, cinematography on point as always,. Its perfect, Matt. It really is.
I'm not a fan either. My wife would add that I'm not a fan of cleaning in general, so there's that 😂. Thanks for watching and if you buy one, have fun!
She looks freaking awesome and seems to work very well. Nicely done 1977, cheers from 1968
Thank you! 1968 must have been a good year!
@@scalebuildersguild the end of a unique era for sure man. Hey keep an open mind about hitting Bracebridge at some point, you won't regret it i promise and its about 2hrs from you.
I turned my trx4 blazer into a mud truck as well. Great video!
Cool! Thanks for watching!
You have the best wheeling video quality 👍👍
Great cinematography bro can’t wait to get my new trucks out
Have fun!
Good lookin truck!!! Turned my vs4_10 origin into my fav mud truck!
The videography was great! Looks like so much fun I may have to build one myself.
Awesome looking mud truck, Matt! And as always... gotta love that running footage!
I'm thinking that I flippin love the license plates.
amazing footage. and like others are saying, thank you Matt for doing it for us. mine looks sweet sitting clean on the shelf. lol seriously though the camera work was worth all the qtips and toothbrushes you're going to need. thank for sharing. oh yeah and congrats on your best Tubeworks award at Nats
Thank you! Don't tell my wife I used all of her Qtips AND her toothbrush 😂.
I'm a fan of those boggers tires, I have 2 sets for my scx24s now.
I never wanted to get my RC muddy until now. Great video Great build.
I’m newer to the channel, but the details on this truck are just right. Looks awesome. Beautifully filmed as well. Great work!
Thanks for the compliments and welcome to the channel!
That camera footage was awesome!
Thank you!
Awesome footage as always! Stay RAD and have a Great week !
I'm doing a mud truck build with a gen7 I picked up cheap. Keeping it on a budget though. With the servo on axle it was easy to lift to clear 2.2's. Just need to decide on a body. I like the Traxxas k5 blazer, but it costs more than I paid for the whole truck and upgrades so far. Great video though. Gave me inspiration to pull it back off the shelf and work on it a bit more. 👍
Good luck! I'm glad the video inspired you!
That's how ya mudd fantastic video Matt 😉👍
Thanks 👍
Love it! I started a mudder a few months ago, and petered out on it. I think you inspired me to finish it.
Thanks for watching and glad that this inspired you!
Think I'm going to pull the trigger on the trx4 Blazer the black one...😁
Awesome video Matt!! Love the working wipers. Truck looks good and that little bunny hop was pretty cool!! Nice Job!
Glad you liked it!!
Flash Gordon fan eh. Nice run vid per usual. Time for a wash and a place on the shelf.
More of just a lightning bolt fan! Thanks for watching!
Definitely gotta do more of these videos flipping awesome it looks amazing great job
Nice 👍 I have been dying to see that truck hit the mud! Wipers made the mudding so realistic🙌 great work as always🤘
You got me to start a trx4 mud truck build just got my lift for it. I gotta get it a little at a time. Good job you made what I want to make I just had to start with the sport model. I now have the velineon 3s system the fling king tires and lift now for body and lights
Nice! Sounds like fun!
@@scalebuildersguild believe it or not the vxl3s system didn’t make it overly fast it just gave it the ability to sling some mud. I still have the ability to crawl it if I want to (with smaller tires) the fling kings make it too top heavy to crawl. I definitely suggest you do that to one of yours just for the fun of it. The trx4 can take a good beating I’m very impressed with the toughness. You will have to cross one of the wires for the brushless system to make it run backwards though. The setup it comes with is reversed.
Wow, dude. Just a sick video! Makes me want one now. LOL.
Go for it!
That wiper system is pretty neat!
WELCOME TO THE LAND OF TRAXXAS
Friggin love the build and the video. Thanks for getting it muddy
Thanks for watching! Now I have to clean it 😬!
Looks amazing bud. Performs nicely. Video is on point. Thinking a bronco one is in the future. Lol
I'll hopefully get to it soon! Thanks for watching!
Dude you're a fabulous Builder got some cool stuff that K5 Blazer I didn't even know they made those things I had the original Quad Buster and a lot of fun with it I still have it but being an older and losing my eyesight I cannot do those things no more and it brought us some Joy seeing that stuff and you do some good filming a lot of people thought it was real my my cousin had to watch it 6 times to see if it was real or not
Wow! Thank you! I'm glad you got some enjoyment watching.
I just hope you packed all those exposed bearings with marine grease... Buddy and i did do some mudrunning and half the bearings of his truck seized up. Oh just a tip: i use marine grease too as a liquid gasket between plastic parts. So far great succes. Awesome video man!
Just don't put away wet! Thanks for watching!
ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING video Matt!!!!!!! Love the wipers haha, truck looks so great
Definitely do some weathering to the body, id love to learn some basics
I have weathering videos in the collection, so check them out!
Just finished my lmt with fling kings and a gmade Buffalo body, and building a Buffalo for some slower mudding
Hmm 🤔. I have a set of these Boggers and know I know what to use them on haha. Awesome rig!
Right on👍. Gotta love a good mud video🛻
Killed it again on the cinematographer bud good angles, music on point, just missing the Josh head
Thanks!
That's Sweeet looking truck🔥🔥Nice action footage👍👍
Thanks for watching!
Hello from southeast alaska. Love the mud run
Hello Alaska! Thanks for watching!
Such an awesome mud truck!
Man that was a fantastic video, love the way u explaing things. I am a traxxas fan and i suport ur Chanel
Awesome! Thank you!
Freaking awesome man! I want to get a TRX4 but I’m so torn between the K5 high trail and the K10 pick up. I just can’t decide Haha! Also kind of want the new Notorious! Serious hobby problems 😂
Love your show and videos
Thank you!
Sweet build!!!
Looks awesome, it must cause I don't like mud truck but want to build one now, lol/ Stuffing in some wider foams would make the side wall "stretch" look more rounded.
Incredible driving and filming!
Thank you!
Gittin' Muddy, Havin' Fun!
Great video Matt. Ordered one of these body's and fender sets. Going to fit to my Ascender. Should keep me busy for a while.
Cool video!! Building a k10 mud truck out of a tf2. Loving the lifted look
Had to wait til lunch to watch this lol but awesome video 👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
That's a gorgeous truck!
Great show
Good try on the wipers! Great video!
Thank you! Cheers!
Oh zhid! That's zick!
a muddy day is a good day
Another great running video, Matt! I was also born in 77. :)
Thanks for watching! '77 was evidently a good year. 😂
Omg its perfect looking! So awsome
Great running video. Honestly Ide loose the white bolt, it seems way too out of place. I did enjoy the monster truck style jumps you accomplished. Now time for a beer!
That rig looks so good!
Totally useless in Madrid Spain because it's more of a desert than anything! Ahahahahahahahah. Fun to see other truck application around the world, and a bit jealous we could have some mud from time to time. Or at least some rain ahahaha
Peace ✌ may the mud be with you
Will you do a special review on the windshield wipers ? a bit of a even very short review would be fun and welcome. We see a bit on your video but a close up could be welcome and after use close up could be welcome, and maybe just not me but scales freaks too! .
Thanks as always, may the mud be with you
I wouldn't do a review on the wipers, because I wouldn't recommend them. Thanks for watching, and if you need mud... just add water!
