It is a very cool body. The servo on my car hit the hood so I had to do the V2 hood. The blower on the hood kept coming off and I eventually ended up losing it and I can't find a replacement for it, and if that didn't happen I would definitely rate it 5 stars. The only other thing is that I bought a bunch of scale accessories for my trx4m Defender and I can't use them with this body.
Keine gute Qualität.
My rear shock mount broke in two different places after a couple times of playing with it. But I came up with a solution, thin metal finder wells. Other then that it’s a great frame and easy to assemble.
Awesome Buggy! It lives up to the hype!

It was only fitting to put a tarantula logo on this sick body. I even went as far as doing a scratch build for this body. I also did some slight modding to lay down the servo.
Was able to get out with Oppai Factory and drive a few of his custom builds. However after driving one of his brushless, dual steering Tarantulas which I have to say was one of the most fun and challenging RC vehicles I have driven in 30+ years of running RC vehicles on land sea air and snow. I came home that night and ordered my own chassis from Injora and plan to do a similar build. My order was extremely smooth, shipping was decent, and when I pulled the chassis out of the box it was just as I expected! Now if I could catch a sponsorship from both of these manufacturers I’d have it made!
Looking forward to building this out.
And would certainly encourage anyone else to do the same!
Thanks!

All is perfect 10/10
The buggy is cool looking and works well but is a little too heavy and fragile I broke the roll cage where the shock mounts on the rear from a 3” roll over not much room for battery or electronics
The body works amazingly and is very accepting to a large variety of upgrades. However in some cases does need minor modification for aftermarket parts and has a problem fitting any vertical steering servo without bottoming out on the servo and you have to cut supports to fit a lay down servo but it is possible despite what it says.
Nice body, goes together well, nice pair with axles you sold for bargain
Excellent product for the price, strong and solid but lightweight and with plenty of mounting positions for shocks. Light bar is bright and overall a very solid platform
Look great, compatibility on top, 2 different front cover designs in the kit
Montage facile.
L'un des capots ne se monte pas sur la cage car le servo de la direction tape dessous...
Une attache de fixation de l'accu gène le montage sur la plaque de base aluminium.
Il faut la couper sinon, montage impossible.
Der Body passt sehr gut mit den TRX4m Teilen zusammen und machen einen optisch sehr ansprechenden Eindruck. Im Gelände sind die abmasse sehr gut getroffen.
Du Unterbringung des Fahrakkus ist da leider der einzige Kritikpunkt.
I got this chassis for a new comp crawler build and absolutely love it. I installed the new meus brass isokinetic axles with lay down servo with relative ease. Just had to use an extended lighter to carefully heat up the front of the chassis and then pull it with pliers and hold until it cooled. I also cut part of the chassis off for even extra servo clearance and articulation. Took about 30 minutes. That, with a bunch of other injora parts, and this little thing is a beast!
Note: I had not mounted electronics yet in the pictures provided, so it doesn’t look as clean as it does now.
I built up my Injora Rock Tarantula from scratch using mostly using Injora parts and it's brilliant and a very capable crawler. The only downsides for me are that the lightbar gets very hot, and the screws could have used a slightly courser thread. Other than that No issues whatsoever.
I like this set very much. Satisfying build and great performance. You can make it with laydown servo axle but it needs some modifications. My set had been built only with INJORA parts except for the receiver and controller.
This kit is totally worth every penny my Trx4m is 10 times more capable than with the regular body I don’t have any brass on mine yet but I think it will receive another huge performance boost with brass plus the Trantula body!
This kit looks and works great! It’s just two screw holes would not let the screw screw in. It’s like they did not thread the holes. Other than that great product!
The chassis is simply stunning! All parts connects perfectly and the assembled chassis is sturdy and beautiful ❤️
This thing absolutely added a next level to the TRX-4M. I instantly got all the clearance I needed, with just the stock build. After adding all the fun features, this thing is an absolute beast. I use it to hill climb mostly but, when I use the lower gears, it's practically unstoppable. Others that complain about the servo scraping the hood but, I can't get it to if I try with the 59mm's on it. Very well done Injora
I love the look and it goes together rather easy. If I could change one thing it would be where the servo hits the hood and support bar. I used all injora parts and at full compression of the springs, the wire that comes right out of the injora servo, hits the cross bar that the “hood” bolts to and causes the suspension to stay compressed. It doesn’t happen that often when driving it around but it has happened a couple times.
Il n'y pas à dire, Injora fait de la qualité, le montage est simple et les vidéos sont là pour aider au besoin. Je suis vraiment surpris de la par la qualité des produits injora.
Ce châssis vous fait directement passer dans le crawling, ça passe partout
Servo hits the hood and limits suspension and flex
Went together easy, needed to only drill out one hole that was not quite a hole. (One of the side panel holes). This is a temp build as I wait on parts. I would put on extended axles and a 7mm to 12mm and use 1/10 scale wheels/tires. (If you build the drivetrain upgraded)
This is a great looking kit and super easy to assemble. Bought this for my son and he was super excited after he saw it all together. Can’t wait to get it out and see how it performs.
There are a few things that I did have an issue with.
1. Servo hits hood panel when shocks are fully compressed. I ordered the Injora 59mm shocks to see if that helps.
2. I wish there was a way to use the factory battery strap rather than Velcro.
3. One of the holes for the passenger side body panel is not drilled or blocked.
4. This is such a great looking kit, I wish there was an interior option from Injora to complete it.
Other than those few things I’m very happy with it and the cost for what you get is great!
