THANK YOU for not making us watch you unscrew the screws and sticking to the meat of the topic! Great job!

I'm sorry (not sorry), but this video deserves another comment. This video is absolutely brilliant. I'm only up to 12:20 and I'm just blown away at how well this is put together.

This was GREAT! I just got the new Axe combo for my trx-4 and a flysky! I was confused on how to make it all work. This was awesome. Thank you for this. Using as a guide.

Man I just installed the Axe R2 550 3300 on my TRX4 Defender and the truck flies! If pops Wheelies like crazy! It's a night and day difference the rig is alot more fun now I highly recommend it! I soldered the plug for my light kit directly on the ecs right on top of the battery cables so it has a factory look and I put a Y splitter on one of my channel 1 receiver to install the fan came out great and factory looking. Might upload a video showing my setup

Would you need a different receiver after replacing the tqi

Hello, how are you. Can I put the battery 11.1..replace the battery 7.4. for the car. Will the car be affected.. Thanks..

So a quick test with a meter on the motor leads goes a long way towards confirming what the ESC LED [might be] indicating.

@22:47 - is that red button the new power switch for the truck? I originally thought it was used to program the ESC but now I think I was mistaken. Or does it do both?

You have to set the receiver

@Ricky's Garage Vibes your video and instructions are the best! Thank you. Just two questions as I don't have the meter with me: are Traxxas lights powered by 11.1V?? You connected directly to the battery. And second please: do you think I can connect the fan to the Traxxas lights connection directly?

@RickysGarageVibes

The Traxxas lights aren’t connected directly to the battery. The kit comes with a module, they also sell a separate LED Power Supply. The cab light is not from Traxxas and it’s 12v

@@RickysGarageVibes Thanks, I was thinking about connecting the lights module directly to the battery. Seems risky, I read that this connection smoked the module foe some people. Does it work fine for you after a few months? I'm considering connecting the lights module to the receiver, the same as the fan - what do you think?

@RickysGarageVibes

@@wojciecho the module is 12v, the receiver is only 6v so you can’t connect the module to the receiver. I’ve had no issues connecting the module to the battery. If you’re using the original Traxxas system, you can connect the module to the XL5 TQi (blue)

Weird I’m using the same motor mount position with the same motor and it doesn’t seem as fast as it should.
