Very poor instructions, the app is not very good also. When trying to calibrate the motor will just go full bore or do nothing at all. and now after doing a factory reset it will not bind back with the controller....100% one of my most regretted purchases for the TRX-4m and sadly i waited to long and now I am stuck with it.
performs exactly like the videos you've prob seen on YouTube. I had to use the app and reverse the motor rotation which worked flawlessly while I was at it I updated no issues amazing how much more control and power. Note: I have a Treal aluminum transmission and while installing the motor it's extremely tight almost like it doesn't fit idk if it'll be like this with the stock or other aftermarkets but I got it to align by slowly turning a little at a time while alternating between the 2 motor screws. It was extremely tedious as you dont wanna stress the motor screws holes very thin and near the edge.
Great Combo and better with time as firmware was released
Great motor perfect match for the 40.3to1 transfer case
Reviewers are generally positive about the Furitek Stinger 118 brushless system for the TRX-4M, with three of four reviews rating it 5/5 and citing strong performance, more control and power, and improvements from later firmware updates. One reviewer mentioned it performs as shown in online videos and pairs well with a 40.3:1 transfer case. The one-star review, from a verified owner, reports poor instructions, a weak app, erratic motor behaviour during calibration, and a failed rebind to the controller after a factory reset. A fit issue was also noted by one reviewer using an aluminium Treal transmission, where the motor was tight to install and required careful alignment. Overall, the sample is small and the reviews split between strong satisfaction and setup difficulties.
