This video should be captioned, stock TRX tires vs PL Hyrax, that is the real difference IMO. I own both the TRX Bronco and Tactical as well as the SCX2 and Wraith. Love them all, and I don’t think anyone will be disappointed with either...great quality and capabilities built into all of them. Love the competition though, it keeps the manufacturers on their toes to create even more exciting trucks going forward.

Great comparison vid :)

SCX10-2 blows through those traps like they aren't there lol Nice comparison :)

both are great! but in the end you have to like what you see as well. for me its the trx4

Surprisingly Axial sailing through much more easily, in spite of TRX4 with more bells and whistles out of the box. Impressive vdo 👍👍

I really like how the TRX-4 has remote locking diffs, makes it that much more realistic

Trx-4 is great! Top features and alot of great things under the body. Problem is, if something brakes while trailing, theres a lot of things to put your hands on alot of times you'll miss the fun thats the reason why theres only rtr's on the market. compared to the axial, its more likely simpler to fix. more fun to have. Both are very great rigs. slight plus to the Trx-4 because of its newer features. thumbs up for both!

Nice comparison

Nice comparison, expecially the one with equal tires. I have the feeling, judging by how they bounced, that the Scx 10 II had a much lighter weight as tested, and that made it bounce a lot but also climb little easier. Trx4, in my opinion, needs to be tested with a lighter (and less top heavy) body to show all its potential. Just like 1:1 rigs, the portal axles have pros and cons. They are great for the ground clearance, but the trade back is a higher Cog and that may not make them the best at climbing very steep rocks. But so many other variables of rig setup are involved that only time will tell which is best.

Scx10 2 front battery - TRX-4 - central battery

Those " g made " wheels are really soft gives nice grip

It looks like I need to finishing putting together my SCX10 II kit. I have watched every KZread video to present. The TRX4 is a very good trailing truck. It will be a capable rock crawler with a lighter and less top heavy body. I like the equal tire, wheel and wheel weighted comparison. Great video, Sincerely Thanks. PS. My SCX10 II has a two speed transmission, I have ran in the in woods ,without a body, and love the two speed option.

Leory Brown (Oldest RC Kid in Town) - First.... *I may* be the oldest kid in RC Town (55 yo)! 😃😆😜 Finish your SCX10 II. Traxxas may have done their homework - but the Axial is a FAR BETTER value for money!! There's nearly limitless options for it, and they're MUCH easier to service in the field. The TRX-4 may have innovative features.... but when are we the consumer, going to ask "how much is TOO MUCH?" Traxxas drives up the cost of the Hobby! They have since the T-MAXX jacked up the prices of Monster Trucks. Then again when the Slash jacked up the prices of Stadium Trucks!! (Although in Traxxas's favor, they DID offer a stripped out version, for us poor folks to fix up at our budget's pace) The TRX-4 is going to remain at the $440-480.00 price point, as long as thousands of bratty kids can talk their Dads into buying them..... and the successful middle-aged modelers see this as "a good value"! 😮😕 *Meanwhile,* the rest of the Market is going to see how well the TRX-4 is selling for at that price - and then THEY will start raising their prices, like they've done before! 😧 I hate sounding like "that guy", but I've been in this Hobby, since 1984.....

Thanks for your vote for the SCX10 II. The TRX-4 will have good factory parts support and probably will need it, they are having servo problems already. Only time will tell which is best but, for now I have many axial parts if needed, so far I haven't needed the parts for my 7 axial brand trucks. My wife calls it the "Big Boys Toys" syndrome. As for the oldest RC Kid in town. I am 67 years old and plan to beat guys half my age at dirt oval racing tonight. Retirement is blessed!!!

Well..... I reckon you've got a couple of years on me!! 😜 I'm hoping that you're showing those kids how it's done, out on the track! You're right..... Retirement is Blessed. Mine lasted two months, before I started driving an OTR Truck! 😲😲 My wife was not amused. It turns out, God had a plan for me to be working. My best friend had a series of unimaginable tragedies, back to back to back! 😯😕 He lost his daughter, in a horrible car accident. Then their very limited budget was strained beyond the breaking point. He's Disabled. An incident during Desert Storm.... He can't work. Lately, they have been barely hanging on, food is very scarce, and they have been on the verge of Eviction every month for 3 months. So, I did what I thought was right - I'm helping them. The extra income from driving has allowed me to barely take up the slack..... To get back on their feet again, they need more than I alone can give. I asked his friends and family. They weren't interested in helping (they HAVE plenty). Of course, I can't force anybody. I then set up a PayPal donation account for them. I've spread it around to his online friends.... They received $119.00 in 2 1/2 months from them. They felt Blessed and humbled to get that, but it's not near enough. So now, I've been spreading around to everyone he knows here on KZread. Nothing so far, but it takes a lot more than that to break me! God willing, I WILL find people to help them!

SCX10ii cleared them easier...

Own Both of these as well as a redcat gen7pro, not going to lie I love all of them but seems my axial scx10 II crc edition, takes the cake

This two are not even comparable. TRX-4 have very strong features and good performance even box stock. It is also way more versatile having 2-speed transmission and lockable diff box stock. This thing is not stuck to be a trail or crawl rig but can be a good basher as well.

There is many variables to a comparison video, lighter weight means it's easier to move, or get into motion, but lighter weight also means there isn't enough weight to make a tire conform to a surface. Heavy weight rigs will need more power to climb hills and will sink in mud. Sometimes these can also be helpful. Center of gravity has a major factor in how a vehicle performs. Scale components, while they look nice, will add weight, BUT in a scale competition can score you some very high points. For a true comparison, both vehicles should have the same weight body and the same tires. Not to mention the same driver will make a comparison more equal. Both of these RCs are leading in crawling. Traxxas though doesn't have the time in this field that Axial does, but still brought their A game to the show. Axial has made very very few changes because they didn't have any competition. Now they have some very big ones, and will have to step up their game if they want to stay on the podium.

I prefer the trx4 but I wish there was more body choices like rubicons, ram 1500, hummer h1, etc.

scx10 2

I have the trx4 sport, now getting a scx10....Both at the top of scale crawling...

what is the music please. thanks

I personally have the original scx10 and it has been far superior in almost every aspect to everything I have put it up against. Factory powertrain and running gear. The only upgrades have been true beadlocks, scale M/Ts, and weighted wheels. 1.5 oz on each wheel

Im planning on buying one of these but i just cant make up my mind.

I was just checking out a new trx4 yesterday at the hobby shop. Very cool truck for sure but I see some potential problems with it. First, I just don't think the portal axles will hold up as good under stress, I think they'll break easier than the others. Another thing, the tiny little cables for the diff locks. They are so thin it just seems they would snap easy. With that, I could see them seizing up due to water and dirt getting into the housings. Lastly, the truck just resembles an Axial scx10 2 way too much. They definitely stole the platform layout from Axial.

Good in the snow to keep a vehicle going in a straight line.

I just don't see it. rtr the traxxas is 40 bucks more but you couldn't add the scale parts, inner fenders, 2 speed, 4 channel radio, remote locking diffs, or portals for anywhere near 40 bucks. my ascender on the other hand gives it a run for value. 365 bucks after coupon.

I consider $450 that's what I paid for mine a fair price for the features in this RTR. I just changed the steering servo for a more powerful one, new weighted wheels and tires, and LED lights for now. I just want to see how reliable the stock drive train and electronics are.

Subscribed to you cuz of the intelligent comment. I have 2 trx4s and I’ve tested it against the vattera and found trx4 to be the best... it just needs weight in front.

Gotta say the scx10 2 is proven but the trx4 with a few mods is right there with it. add a better servo, some weights and a good sensored brushless setup and is bet it would keep up. so far from all the Facebook posts the trx4 is underpowered, tires suck, and the servo is dying. sound about right. I'll be waiting for a roller or see if I can buy one that I can pull the electronics and add my own or a kit version would be best. axial is gonna have to come with some portal axles. that extra clearance can't be beat.

Where is this?

Scx10 2 with original tires on the rear and Hyrax on the front at 5'40'' why that????

great video but I have to say I'm sicking with axial. Sure the TRX-4 is cool and all but the SCX10 is a whole lot easier to work on and u can do a lot things with a SCX10. I do like Traxxas and all but they are getting too high on there RC's the only Traxxas stuff I buy is there Electronics. The SCX10 did everything the TRX-4 did with out locking the diff. The only thing I have done to my SCX10 is a Traxxas 12T motor with super swamper tsl and is crawls like very good

Mantulllll👍👍👍👍👍

Axial for life

So... Top heavy and slower vs lcg(comparatively) and faster wheel speed.

i see the TRX4 to be more of a trail and mud truck than a extreme terrain truck i will use my TRX4 for trailing while i will use my custom build for extreme terrain

Not a fair comparison with the much larger tires on the axial.

SCX10 II RTR vs TRX4 RTR both running bone stock, same lines with two drivers playing follow the leader. After you reach the hilt swap rigs and do it again. Then if you are going to hop them up, be equally fair about bolting on the same exact wheels, tires, weight. Along with running the same batteries in each rig. I love both rigs an am aware of the capabilities of each running stock and modified. If you want a Scale Trail rig for Rock Crawling duties. Then think about this... Heavy rig. Vs Light rig.

ATEC Atec what drugs are you smoking? Here we go with the "if it had" crap. Lol. Traxxas will never compete with axial. The trx-4 is garbage. Steering servo failures, shifting servo failures, portal axle failures, top heavy queer body. For a truck that traxxas claims is the king of crawlers they sure do have quite a few problems already. That diff lock crap is a joke. Traxxas is a basher company. Never once have i been crawling and thought "let me unlock my diff and lose traction" lol.

Wow, the TRX-4 Stock tires are terrible compared to the Hyrax's.

SCX10 2 i well over traxxas.As suspected,traxxas is an overated car,wich probably for a start platform for a factory is good,but it needs time to improve an perform well,and have more atention in other setups,then remoted diff locks,wich for me is useless

Axial all the way!

Trx4. Great rig hampered by stupid body. Top heavy, rear heavy, bumpers stick out to far. Changed bumpers, took off spare tire, that alone made it unstoppable. A whole new body probably makes it unfair to the competition.

Just goes to show that you don’t need all the hype to a great crawler. Axail Rc4wd all the way 👌🏼

No yellow on a traxxas. Mine will be yellow. Imaginary mabe but yellow.

Axial is better because it a little bit better traction on slippery rock

Funny they cut the axial turning....lol, all locked up its really bad... Backing up all day so much to turn... lol I own them all...lol. Don't hate.... to be fair Axial was kjnda good for a while. Traxxas with the Locking/ unlocking diffs just destroyed the competition!!!! Makes all my Axial stuff archaic. Turning radius is that of pro crawler with front and rear diff motor control 4 wheel steering etc... portal axels... already seeing prototypes under other brands...lol...

Remember, traxxas has sued HPI and axial on "trademark" infringement! They said the monster truck savage copied the TMaxx! Haha, I owned 2 savages and 2 TMaxx. Couldn't be farther from the truth. 2 different platforms and The savage was a 100% better product hands down. Point is, traxxas has been around forever and maybe cornered the market for new enthusiasts. Then better products came along. Traxxas didn't like that so started playing sue game. Anybody who's been in the hobby long enough knows not to buy traxxas. Not because the newer products aren't descent, it's because traxxas buyers are new to the hobby ( I was there too). There's many better products, companies out there.
