Rock Crawlers

[Tunedfrog]

I'm going to throw another vote towards Element. The Ecto is a great do it all truck. The Zuul is pretty much an Ecto with a different body so you can't go wrong with Either.
Here is my Ecto.

Another good element trail truck is the Sendero HD. Not quite as capable as the Ecto/Zuul but still a fun rig.

Honestly your TRX4 is a great rig, but the Ecto or Zuul are very capable. Now if you want a srious crawler then Vanquish is what your after. But that is more of a technical crawler but @MVRCA loves his Vanquish as much as I love my Element crawler/trailtrucks.

An Element is still on my radar, or six. Great looking trucks bud.

In my opinion: You can't really beat a TRX4 for a trail truck. I built a TRX4 sport and put the remote locking diffs on. I can lock the diffs when I need to go up some rocks, and unlock them when I want to just bash around. I had a castle esc with slate 2280kv motor and it was awesome on 3s. If you want a more scale looking trail truck, then My vote goes to the Vanquish Optic.

What radio system you guys using with your TRX4s?

I'm on stock, but I have upgrades in my cart for a new motor if I burn it up, and servo for when I burn it up.

I have a spektrum dx5c and use the extra channels to to work the locking diffs, the auxiliary wire on esc, and the light controller.

Yeah that's how I set my Flysky up, But it just seems like a lot to remember what does what

Of course I overlooked mentioning the ultimate trail truck, I always forget to mention it because it is pricey. The Axial SCX6 is an awesome rig.

Ohhhh I love that! Just little big for my liking. Are there any 1/8 trail trucks?

The Redcat Marksman is the only one that comes to mind, but I'm sure there are others.

It takes up a lot of real estate but it's a power house and totally worth it.

They are very fun. Mine started off as a jeep and I turned it into a Honcho. Horizon Hobby likes to frequently put them on sale for $200 off.

Well my Mojave is pretty big and with the speed it has is really too big For my Trail area I have. These slower Trail Trucks works way better on what I have than the Faster trucks. I mean the Sky is the Limit on what I could do with my trail area. I could pile rocks, Dirt, Dig ditches, you name it I could do it. And the area is much bigger than this pic. This is just one section of it
