Expedition RC model of the Traxxas TRX-4 car with a licensed Ford F-150 body containing portal axles, a metal chassis frame, aluminum oil shock absorbers, a clipless body . Proven electronics - 550 21T DC motor, XL-5HV controller with five driving modes, TQ RC kit with precise steering mechanics.
The Traxxas Ford F-150 combines the unmatched ground clearance and driving dynamics of portal axles with Canyon® Trail tires and an attractive design with a licensed body. You get a nimble and great-looking RC car on a TRX-4 chassis at a great price. Unique bumpers, wheels and bodywork have been designed to enhance the car's off-road performance. The capabilities of the TRX-4 model and its performance will take your outdoor adventures to the next level.
The model can be further equipped with a working winch, multi-function lighting and a wide range of other original accessory parts (sold separately). It is the top quality, wide range of tuning parts and the possibility of gradual improvement that make the TRX-4 the best expedition model in the world.
News overview
Licensed bodywork
The model's hallmark is a beautifully crafted licensed pickup body with chrome elements such as side moldings, wipers, front grille, bumpers and, last but not least, wheels with hub caps. The side mirrors and headlights are also finished. The windows are clear for a 3D look.
Clipless body mounting
The new body mounting system using hooks in the wheel arches ensures quick and easy replacement. To remove the body, simply press the hook and pull the body upwards. Installing the body is even easier; just place it on the chassis.
TRX-4 chassis
The chassis is built from two steel profiles, which provide high chassis rigidity and limit torsion.
Portal axles
The TRX-4 chassis uses portal axles with an axle gearbox. The axle gearbox increases ground clearance, reduces stress on the gearbox, cardan shafts and further reduces torsional force - the model tilts less.
Transmission
The TRX-4 Ford F-150 is equipped with a single-speed transmission with impressive power and torque. The gear ratio corresponds to the second gear of the TRX-4 with a two-speed transmission. The compact transmission includes a dual-friction clutch for increased drivetrain protection.
Divorces
The axle differentials on this lightweight model will always transfer maximum power to all wheels without slipping, allowing you to drive over even the most difficult terrain.
GTS oil shock absorbers
Four GTS oil-filled shock absorbers provide smooth damping and perfect driving characteristics. The aluminum shock absorber bodies are equipped with a nut for adjusting the spring preload. Special X-ring seals ensure maximum tightness of the shock absorber around the piston rod.
Power steering
The model is controlled by a Traxxas 2075X high-torque digital servo, with a torque of 9 kg·cm. The servo is equipped with two ball bearings on a milled shaft and metal gears for maximum durability. Waterproof* construction.
Titan 21T engine
The model is powered by a Titan 21T 550 DC motor. The motor provides smooth operation even at low speeds. For better cooling, the motor has an integrated fan that blows air to the rotor.
DC regulator
The heart of the Traxxas model is the XL-5 HV DC electronic controller. The controller is designed to be powered by a 2-cell or 3-cell LiPo battery. The model can also be powered by 6- to 7-cell NiMH batteries. Easy selection of driving modes and other settings using the EZ-SET button. Controller status indication by LED diode. LVD protection against underdischarge of the LiPo battery. Thermal protection. Waterproof* construction.
The Traxxas XL-5 HV controller supports 5 driving modes:
- Sport : Forward, brake and reverse
- Race : forward and brake. Reverse is not available.
- Training : Forward is limited to 50% power, brake is 100% and reverse is limited to 50%. This mode is suitable for children
- Trail : Forward, brake, reverse. Controls near neutral are very smooth
- Crawl : Drive forward, brake in neutral, and straight into reverse.
TQ receiver
The Traxxas TQ 2.4 GHz three-channel receiver ensures safe, drop-free control. Easy one-button pairing. Status indication via LED.
Traxxas TQ RC kit
The model is controlled by a Traxxas TQ two-channel proportional steering wheel RC transmitter, operating in the 2.4 GHz band. The transmitter is powered by 4 AA batteries.
There is a rotary knob on the transmitter that trims the steering (so that the model drives straight when the steering wheel is in the center position). The battery status in the transmitter is displayed by an LED. The transmitter can be set to reverse on the throttle and steering channels.
