{ Update April 2023 - Still enjoying the Hobby but the UA-cam side has become more of a side project. I try to always keep up with comments and questions but video making is less of a priority of late although I do still make some and will upload every now and then. Keep sharing and enjoying this great hobby of RC my friends. }
Welcome to TJsRC. My name 's Teagan and I'm a stay at home Dad who loves the RC hobby. I enjoy learning new RC related things from AWESOME RC enthusiasts like you. The best part is then sharing what I've learned with others using this UA-cam channel.
Are you like me? Do you enjoy, fixing, repairing or modifying your own RC's? Perhaps you don't but you're eager and love learning new RC things. If so, we have a lot in common and there's much we can learn from each other. After all, one of the best parts of this hobby is how easily the fun spreads when you share it with others.

Is it better to mount the shocks upside down?
@@valiant7357 No Not necessarily I was just experimenting with running that way. It didn’t offer any benefit but you will get people asking about it so it’s a good conversation starter.
@@TJsRC thanks for the response, I have oil in mine which gives them a little weight so maybe I'll try it. Might be a little less body roll when smashing around in 2nd gear. Thanks man. cheers

Hey, does the link module at least tell your vehicle speed? Or is it mostly to read/access the data from EXTRA sensors that you will have to BUY? Lol
@@Ohh_Is_That_Sooo... you need the extra sensors for things like speed, voltage and temperature. The app is still useful though for adjusting channel settings and trims as well as firmware updates. I find it quite useful even though I do not have any of the extra sensors. Since I have this in a crawler those add on features would barely be useable anyway so I don’t mind.
@@TJsRC gotcha. Thanks for the heads up!
1,000th view let's goo
Thanks for watching
New sub, Definitely going to check these out!!!! 🤝👊💪
They are worth it especially if you enjoy tinkering with the tiny trucks. Multiple times a year I switch them to a different wheel and truck to change up the looks without spending any additional money.
@TJsRC been in the hobby 3 years now. Love my tiny trucks lol ✌️👊
What do I do if I can’t connect the beadlocks all the way to hold the rim in place on my boom racing custom carbon fiber wheels …
I would look into a bead lock assembly tool to see if that helps. I don’t have any first hand experience with those specific wheels but something like this might help. There are other types of assembly tools this is just the first one I found when I googled it. www.dsmoffroad.com/products/beadlock-buddy-wheel-assembly-tool
I’m new to the RC hobby. I have a trx4 k5 blazer midnight edition. I will be getting 120mm dessert lizard shocks ( silver ) I was wondering what’s the best tuning you recommend from oil to springs. I do a lot of crawling and trails. Lots of side hills as well. Minimal on the mud.
First off unless you have the TRX4 that came with the large 2.2 wheels or the Traxxas lift kit my opinion is that 120mm are to long. I personally wouldn't go more than 100mm on the basic TRX4. As for oil, in a crawler using dessert lizard shocks just get a medium to lightweight oil. 25-35 weight oil is more than adequate. Oil tuning does very little in the way of measurable changes on a crawler truck. And the spring setup in the video is as good a place as any to start with.
@@TJsRC wheel size are 1.9 & and spring set up would be stiff springs ? If I recall I think you swapped out your soft springs for the stiff ones ?
@@valleymade9563 it depends on how heavy the truck is. You have to play around with it a little to figure out how you want it to sit and ride. Don't add the oil until you commit to trying a spring combo then drive it for a few batteries worth before making any changes.
Thank you !
Thank you brother for helping people all the way 4 years in the future lol much love
Thanks
How do you close the app, I have to restart my phone to close it ?
on iPhone you either swipe up or hit the home button. On Android the back or home button should work.
Hi. Can I use the castle b-link to program hobby Holmes torquemaster br mini brushed dual esc ?
I don't know about that as I don't have any experience with Holmes ESC. I know I like his motors. I think they might be compatible. If you already have the B-link I'd say try it. If you're wondering if you should buy it I would want more confirmation that it'll work before investing in it. You could email Holmes customer support or check the Holmes Hobbies Facebook groups to see if anyone has first hand experience with it.
Can this Hobbywing LED Program Card Work with MST esc?
The hobbywing programers only work with Hobbywing products. Hobbywing does make escs for some rc truck manufacturers. If the ESC says Hobbywing on it then probably it would work. I don't have any experience with MST products so I am unfamiliar with their electronics.
@@TJsRC thanks
Can it work with all hobbywing esc?
@@geryang450 It will only work with ESC models that have settings that can be adjusted. Not every Hobbywing ESC has adjustable settings. A lot of them do but to be sure just look at the instructions sheet that came with the ESC or look the ESC up on their website.
They look cool but for me they are too slow to react.
There are some things you can do to improve that. Use lighter weight oil. Change the valve to one with more holes. Use stronger spring on each side. These should help some. They are designed for slow rock crawling so fast reacting is not their strong suit.
I love how they advertise that the remote can do some thing but they never seem to let ya know that it takes paying for like 3 other products to make the feature actually work
Yeah I hear you. I was disappointed myself the first time I discovered you can’t actually use all the fancy features unless you add all the extra, sold separately sensors. It’s cool that the functionality is there. It’s just not attainable for the average RC user.
I got a new controller from amazon and it will not link to my phone no matter what....😢 im trying whit a diferent controller today
First be sure the controller has the Bluetooth adapter installed already. Traxxas sold many tQi controllers that are "Bluetooth compatible" meaning they are able to have the adapter added but didn't come with it. Second, if you previously has a controller connected you will need to go into your phone Bluetooth settings and tell it to forget the former device. Then start from the beginning. If you've done all that try connecting it to a different phone or tablet if you can to verify it's working.
I’ve always called those clips Jesus clips.
I can imagine why
Aren't the shocks upside down...?
In this video yes they are. No particular reason to do it really. Just experimenting at the time and it sparked lots of comments. 👍
Thank you man i just cracked my ftx outback tracker dont even know how 😢
Hi please help me and my buddies are saying no high voltage detected
I'm not sure what you mean by no high voltage detected. If you are referring to the instrument panel screen in the app, those functions require additional sensors that Traxxas sells separately. Sensors like battery voltage, motor rpm, motor temperature and speed all require separate sensors. I think I briefly mentioned this in the video because I don't use any of those functions for what I do.
That was so helpful. I have an orange BMW E30 body from an HPI RS4 kit that has a crack. It’s still in good shape besides that crack. I’ll give this a try
Good luck my friend. I hope it turns out good for you. 👍
Do you leave the Blink in or do you remove it
after confirming that the settings have been changed. I power everything off and remove it because I've had it interfere with other electronics when I tried leaving it in.
Can it do throttle ramping?
You can adjust trim and sensitivity of the throttle channel. The Sensitivity setting acts similar to throttle ramping but to adjust true throttle ramp curves the ESC needs to be adjustable. This is not usually possible with the stock ESC. However if you have an after market one you would use that manufacturers software or programming tool to change the throttle ramp curves. I have Castle Creations ESC's in most of my rigs so I use Castle's smartphone app for those kinds of setting changes.
Thanks I just got into RC drag racing and bought a traxxas drag slash…
@@nemonespider I don't have any experience with the RC drag racing stuff. It does sound fun though. Hope you enjoy. 👍
Are we able to remove the b link after tuning? Must the B Link stay connected in the cars at all time during runs?
Once the settings are changed and loaded into the ESC you can power off and remove the B link.
Just to be sure. So the ESC remembers the settings and I do not need to connect the b link again on the same car for subsequent runs right?
@@shaunwee7658 Oncr you change a setting and it has been saved to the ESC it should stay until you change it again. You can easily test this to show it works by making a change to an easily observable setting (like setting max forward power to 25% or setting the drag brake to off or 100%) then save and remove the B link and see if that setting change stayed. That's only if you want to prove to yourself that the changes are sticking because you aren't sure.
Thks and really appreciate your replies. 🙏🙏🙏
I was wondering if you could help me with some issues. I habe a Hobbywing Fusion quickrun SE 1800kv running for now a 2s lipo 7.4v. My transmitter is RadioLink RC6GS v3. The transmitter has connected to the motor and it does work but there is some settings in the transmitter that i need to tweak to work out the bugs. Do you know anything about the RC6GS v3?
I'm sorry I'm not familiar with that radio. You should try searching UA-cam for videos about that specific model radio. There should be more knowledgeable video creators from those results.
@@TJsRC I joined a forum online. Thanks
Looks great!
Thank you so much! Ive been looking for these. So glad I saw this video. Thank you!
Your welcome friend. I'm glad you found it useful.
Wow! Great looking Scout. Perfect beach run for a caged top vehicle. Cheers!
Yeah it was a great camping trip. Lots of fun running the trucks on the beach.
Do they help in the deeper snow
Complete junk !
the app dosent have the conect icon nomore so once you can only have only one model with one reciver ro work on the link app thats pretty lame they did it on purpose
You should be able to connect to more than one transmitter. However you can only connect the App to one BT module at a time. As far as I know the app never allowed you to have multiple BT modules connected at the same time.
@@TJsRC what i mean is that you cant conect difrent models like i have a jato and a slayer pro but cence the app dosent have the conect to reciver iccon nomore only alliws the jato to conect to the app cence the jato is what csme with that radio😳
@@eduardolopez4185 The app connects to the BT in the Transmitter so if that is connected it shouldn't care what RC car is paired with the transmitter. My app still has a "select model" button/icon. It's in the middle of the top row when the app opens. This just changes preset profiles in the app. It doesn't have any control whether the app connects to a particular RC or not. At the very top edge of the app in each corner there is an indicator light that let's you know if it is talking with the transmitter and receiver/vehicle. If the one I the top right is red and not green make sure the RC is powered on and connected to the Transmitter before opening the app and connecting it. If both those indicator lights are green then it's connected to both the tx and the Rx and you can make any adjustments you need. Ok after typing all that I went back and looked around in the app. There is a button labeled "connect" with a picture of a receiver for the icon. It's in the "Garage" tab but I don't know what it is for as I've never used it. If I had to guess I would suspect it might be for helping to pair a transmitter with a new reciever but again I'm not sure. Sorry for the long wordy reply.
@@TJsRC yea my app dosenthave that icon and it seems to me thats what i am missing in order to do what i am trying to do tganks for the attention 👍
@@eduardolopez4185 are you on Android or Apple?
Good afternoon Unable to connect Traxxas Link to Honor View20, Android 10 Asks for a PIN code The phone recognizes the device as TQi BLE The Traxxas app only offers to restart the bluetooth module on the phone.
Don't start trying to connect in your phone settings app. First make sure your phones BT on and the Transmitter is powered on. Now go into the app and use the "Traxxas Link Wireless Module" button to start the connection. Follow the directions in the prompts. If this still doesn't work message Traxxas customer service because there was a known issue with some of the modules not working with newer versions of Android. This was a couple years ago and I assume they would have addressed it but if the module you have is somehow an older manufactured one maybe it still has the issues. In that case they should be able to either fix it for you or replace it.
We tried to connect it to the iPhone (I didn't check what model, but I think it's fairly new) - unfortunately, the result was negative. The last option remains - I'll try it on the iPad - it's old enough for me, but... hope dies last. @@TJsRC
@@janisteteris6847 So the phones are seeing it as an BT device available but just won't complete the connection? I would still message Traxxas customer service then and see what they will do to help you out. You spent good money on this product, it shouldn't be this much headache to make it work.
@@TJsRC A negative result is also a result. The connection with the IPod tablet failed - unfortunately, the software is too old (version 10) and you can't install a newer one (you need to start from 11). However, there is also positive news - I managed to connect via iPhone (if I didn't confuse anything, then version 16.7) (Tomorrow I will try to find out what system version the phone we tried first had)
@@janisteteris6847 Glad you had a least some partial success.
If the C hubs don't have an L or R how can you which is which?
With the axle housing as level front to back as possible you will want the top of the C-hub to lean back slightly. So if you put one on and it's leaning towards the front, try it on the other side.
@@TJsRC Dude. Thank you!
@@EricsRC Your welcome and best of luck to you getting it back together. Have fun.
What the Bluetooth pairing process
Open the App, there's a button in the upper right hand corner that is the Bluetooth pairing button. The ESC must be powered on first or it won't show up as an option to connect to.
It didn't work on my offroad rc car
It doesn't matter which Traxxas model RC you have. This only works with a Traxxas TQI transmitter and it needs the Bluetooth adapter slot on the back of it.
I don't have a trexxas I wish I had one🥺😭
@@AlphaGaming-tx4ht Yeah this unfortunately will only work with Traxxas. It would be cool if other manufacturers made similar products for their brand of RC
Thanks man I needed this information quick 😀
Glad it was helpful
So can you get a little bit of lift outta this setup if you run one of the taller springs? Looking to get alittle more outta my trx4 blazer so I can run 2.2s??
Technically yes but if your TRX4 has lockers you have to be mindful of the locker cables, there isn’t much extra play with those stock cables when you start lifting. It’s very easy to overlook and be over extending the downwards flex of the suspension and have to much stress on that cable. This was at least the case on my TRX4 but I have one of the first ones. Maybe they’ve got longer ones now because Traxxas sell lift kits for them and you can even get them pre lifted with the 2.2 tires.
I have a trx Traxxas I don’t know what kind but it goes around 60-70 mph and when I press the accelerator on the remote it goes but then 2 seconds later stops then after like 5 seconds it goes again for 2 seconds. Do you know what may be the issue??
Hey TJ, is the PC Software still available and working with my Xerun 150A ESC ? Cheers (from freezing cold Germany) Nik
That I do not know. The only Hobbywing product I still have is the AXE system and that uses the Bluetooth Hobbywing App on my phone. You could go to the Hobbywing website and look for Downloads on their support page.
That paint work on the interior looks 🔥
Mal montados te lo digo yo el amortiguador tiene que estar con el bastago casi dentro del todo y tener el maximo de drop posible.
La mejor parte de los amortiguadores en este vídeo es que vienen con suficientes resortes adicionales para que puedas afinarlos de la manera que quieras. Espero que funcionen muy bien para ti, amigo mío. Diviértete con tu camión RC.

Thanks for watching my friend 👍🏻
So good to see you guys back out with the trucks,nice film work!
My card came on 1 time smh
If it's still new message Hobbywing customer support and see if they'll replace it. Or check with whatever Hobby shop you got it from to see if they will.
On my hobbywing quicrun fusion, It only lit up on the 6v direct from esc, not the manual instructed PRG port with the button. That tested at 7.4v, So I ran 6v power, but used the signal port on the PRG port and there you go it works. Great manual..
Glad you got it figured out 👍🏻
Thank You!
Is this a better option then the keys?
