TRX-4M Defender 1/18 Scale micro crawler (battery/charger included)

The Traxxas TRX-4M Defender packs full sized crawling capability into a versatile 1/18 scale package.

Whether you are building indoor living room courses or tackling backyard rock gardens, the TRX-4M delivers an authentic trail experience. Designed with a highly detailed ABS hard body and clipless mounting, this rig looks just like the real Defender while shedding the hassle of traditional body pins. It features a heavy duty steel ladder frame that runs bumper to bumper, giving you a rigid platform that refuses to twist under load.

Unlike standard mini crawlers that bounce over obstacles, the TRX-4M uses oil filled GTM shocks to smooth out the ride and provide realistic articulation. The locked spools and 45 degree steering angle mean you can point it at a line and trust the truck to dig in and pull through.

Why You'll Love It

• Clipless ABS Hard Body: The tough, molded color body stays locked in place on the trail but releases in seconds when you need access to the chassis.
• GTM Oil Filled Shocks: Dual O-ring sealed shocks provide controlled damping and realistic suspension movement across technical terrain.
• Superior 45 Degree Steering: The heavy duty 2065T steering servo and direct steering setup deliver a tight turning radius without relying on a sloppy servo saver.
• Ready to Run Bundle: Everything you need to get moving is in the box, including a 750mAh 2-cell LiPo battery and a 2-amp USB fast charger with iD technology.
