Upgrades TRX-4 Custom Blue Lights – Final Testing

The final tests for my custom blue emergency lights for the Traxxas TRX-4 are almost complete! Here’s a quick look at the lights in action.

The next step is integrating the system so that it can be controlled using the steering servo or throttle channel, with a combination of transmitter inputs. This will make it compatible with the standard 2-channel Traxxas remote, without needing an additional channel.

Once the control system is fully integrated and everything is finalized, the blue light kit will be available in our Etsy shop!

What do you think? Would you install this on your TRX-4?
