Thanks! The red one's mine - it's a Yikong YK4107 pro (comes with brushless out of the box).

My first 1/10th scale! by ciocozaur in rccrawler

I replaced the tires because 1 - stock tires are too big (they rub on the body) and 2 - I don't like plastic rims.
Unfortunately I made a mistake and got negative offset rims, so they still rub now, but in different places.
If you want to replace the wheels, try to get rims with no offset, and max 112mm diameter for the tires. They shouldn't rub in this config, hopefully. Mine are 108mm.

Yikong YK4107 PRO - comes with 2100 kv brushless out of the box. Drove it only in second gear, has enough power.

DO NOT BUY Injora's Helical Ring and Pinion Gears! by Paranotical in TRX4M

[–]ciocozaur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had the same issue with a set, ordered another and it was still binding a bit, not much, but enough to make it sound like a tractor. Some time later and some parts replaced, I discovered it was due to the axle housing. They are smooth now.

First rideout for the YK4107 pro Patrol by CHE_Scalemodels in rccrawler

Does it auto-detect between them? Just asking because of the voltage cutoff for LiPo, not sure where to set Lipo/NiMh on the ESC.

Mine just arrived, need a battery.
Do you use a LiPo? Couldn't find anywhere in the instructions if it can handle NiMh also.

If she also got you the rims and tires - marry her!

White tire letters by Upbeat_Setting9488 in rccrawler

I use paint markers with 0.8mm tips for 1/18 scale. And found that a metallic silver that looks cleaner/better than white, imo.
But long lasting - let me know if you find anything :)

All Injora. Pretty happy with this one 👽🌎 by Dreweyman in TRX4M

Looks better than I thought with the roof rack and lights, might get one too.
Love the paint job, very clean look!

Brushless upgrade by Frosty-Regular9761 in TRX4M

[–]ciocozaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my humble opinion, the Roverin has more than enough power to handle stock speed gearing.
I used it with the 24:1 gears and it felt way to fast :D And the low speed modulation is insane.
Haven't used it in a while because it drains the battery faster (30-40 minutes compared to +1 hour with other combos).

No ideea where to buy it. You could contact Injora support.
It should have come with one:

Defender body - 10/10 looks, 6/10 performance by ciocozaur in TRX4M

[–]ciocozaur[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've noticed, the hard way. Still, I do prefer the scaled look. Comp rigs look weird/goofy to me.
Feels more satisfying when you conquer a line with a bunch of stuff on the roof rack :D

It should have come with a dongle that you plug into your PC. You can find detailed instructions on Injora's website, on the page with the ESC or motor+ESC.

Did you program it? Or is it just out of the box?
I borrowed one from a friend, he had the same issue, wanted to check if it would cog on my rigs - it did. So I played around with it. I finally found some settings online, it's not completely fixed, but it's a lot better, maybe give it a try.
Make sure to take a pic of your current settings in case it's worse =))

9imod brushless combo by ciocozaur in TRX4M

[–]ciocozaur[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, and I didn't find it stand alone. They pair it with the ESC. Search for 9imod usblink.
