1979 Ford Bronco TRX-4 Scale and Trail Rock Crawler 4x4 RTR R/C (Red)
Originally introduced in 1966 as a 4X4 compact SUV, the Ford® Bronco matured as a full-size truck in the late 1970s, cementing its status as a rugged off-roader. Traxxas honors the classic 1979 Ford Bronco with this beautifully detailed and faithful reproduction mounted on the incredibly capable TRX-4® chassis. From the chrome wheels and bumpers to the gorgeous Sunset or red graphics, the TRX-4 recaptures the Bronco’s iconic era with the toughness and technology that could only come from Traxxas.
New Clipless Body Mounting
New to TRX-4 79&prime Ford Bronco, clipless body mounting combines clean flowing lines with secure latching convenience. TRX-4 Ford Bronco’s hidden latches hold tight on the trail no matter how intense the action gets, but release in just seconds to access the chassis.
Torque Twist Eliminated
Portal axles use gear reduction at the wheels to virtually eliminate torque twist. The Titan 550 motor's torque translates into straight, powerful, forward motion, rather than wasted energy twisting your rig right off the rocks.
Rigid Steel Frame
A heavy-duty formed-steel ladder frame with molded cross members create an extremely rigid backbone. You'll feel the difference on trails when navigating technical terrain.
Scale Details
TRX-4 Bronco sets the new standard for scale RC crawlers. Authentic chrome wheels, trim panels, and bumpers with replica side mirrors, wipers, and front grille give the Bronco that classic 70s look. The beautiful Sunset and red painted bodies make the Bronco recognizable anywhere.
TQi(TM) Radio System with Cruise Control
The Traxxas TQi features their exclusive cruise control for long-distance treks. Set your speed using the transmitter and then use the multi-function knob to fine-tune it faster or slower to match precisely the pace of your caravan of trail explorers.
