Traxxas TRX-4 & TRX-4M
Traxxas TRX-4 & TRX-4m Ultimate Trail Trucks
The Traxxas TRX-4 and TRX-4m are two formidable tucks that define two categories of RC Rock Crawling, Standard and Mini. Traxxas introduced the 1/10 TRX-4 in 2017 with the iconic Land Rover body. Now, Traxxas has over 20 variations of TRX-4 and a whole line of mini, 1/18 TRX-4m models. Explore this article and find the perfect TRX-4/TRX-4m for you!
1/10 Scale Traxxas TRX-4
The TRX-4 is a 1/10 scale rock crawler/trail truck designed to tackle rough terrain. These trucks feature strong portal axles, a strong brushed motor, and a detailed body. With many factory, and aftermarket parts available, the TRX-4 can be customized from mild to wild. If you want a crawler that will go anywhere outdoors, the TRX-4 is for you!

1/18 Scale Traxxas TRX-4m
The counterpart to the TRX-4 is this smaller 1/18 scale TRX-4m. Don't let its size fool you though. These trucks feature powerful brushed motors combined with incredible suspension geometry to allow these trucks to handle like their larger equivalent. Just like the 1/10 scale TRX-4, there are many option parts available to make this truck handle or look exactly how you want. Either indoors or outdoors, this truck is ready for adventure.

1/10 VS 1/18
The Traxxas TRX-4 and TRX-4M are both capable RC crawlers, but they differ significantly in scale, features, and intended use. The TRX-4 is a 1/10-scale crawler, much larger and more advanced featuring portal axles making it ideal for serious off-road adventures. In contrast, the TRX-4M is a 1/18-scale mini crawler designed for compact spaces, with a simpler drivetrain, making it better suited for indoor and small outdoor courses. While the TRX-4 excels in extreme terrain with high customization potential, the TRX-4M offers a more affordable, portable, and fun alternative for casual crawling.


Differences in TRX-4's
The Traxxas TRX-4, TRX-4 Sport, and TRX-4 High Trail all share the same 1/10-scale platform but differ in features and capabilities. The TRX-4 Standard is the most versatile, offering remote-locking differentials, a 2-speed transmission, and portal axles, making it ideal for both trail driving and crawling. The TRX-4 Sport is a simplified, budget-friendly version with fixed differentials and a single-speed transmission, making it lighter and better suited for pure crawling. The TRX-4 High Trail Edition comes with a factory lift kit, larger 2.2-inch wheels, and increased ground clearance, making it the best choice for deep mud and extreme off-road terrain. Each model caters to different RC crawling needs, from versatility to hardcore off-roading.

Differences in TRX-4m's
The Traxxas TRX-4M, TRX-4MT, and TRX-4M High Trail are all 1/18-scale mini crawlers, but they have key differences. The TRX-4M is the standard version, featuring straight axles, a single-speed transmission, and fixed differentials, making it great for indoor and small outdoor crawling. The TRX-4MT is a monster truck variant with larger tires, longer shocks, and a higher stance, designed for rougher terrain and jumps rather than technical crawling. The TRX-4M High Trail is a lifted version of the standard TRX-4M, featuring a factory-installed lift kit and larger tires, giving it more ground clearance for tackling tougher obstacles. While the TRX-4M is balanced for all-around crawling, the TRX-4MT focuses on off-road bashing, and the High Trail version enhances rock-crawling capability with increased height.
TRX-4 Battery & Charger
The Traxxas TRX-4 Rock Crawlers are Ready to Run and include everything you need except a compatible Battery and Charger. For this, we recommend only using Traxxas ID LiPo batteries. The Traxxas EZ-Peak 2S Single Completer Pack is the perfect choice to get a battery and charger in one neat package.

TRX-4m Charger Adapter
The TRX-4m includes a battery and charger from the factory, however, Traxxas makes an adapter to use an EZ-Peak Traxxas charger with the battery included in the TRX-4m. Using this adapter will give you compatibility with Traxxas EZ-Peak iD Chargers, resulting in faster charging times compared to the standard charger included with the TRX4-M.
