Just bought my first Element--the Gatekeeper--and I'm really impressed. A great value.

First I wanted the TRX4 Defender ☺️.... now I am looking at your reviews of the Elements Sendero Enduro 👍😉... very hard to decide now .....

Buy both

I bought and installed the reedy 16 turn 1850 kv 5 pole motor and it is awesome. It is powerful, very quiet, can turn in either rotation, has adjustable timing, it can be rebuilt ... just wow. More torque and resolution than a 35 turn, but faster than my 21 turn traxxas motor. Best of both worlds for my opinion. I really appreciate the channel and objective reviews. Thanks!

Awesome review brother

I am excited to get one of these will preorder the kit asap. I like the body but have a plan to build more of a crawler than a scaler. I have a nice power wagon body and am afraid to ruin it. I think this truck is going to just what I need.

I’ve already put a deposit on my builders kit with my LHS. Tires/Wheels and body are waiting. Just trying to decide what electronics I want to run. Team Associated...I mean Element RC is killing it! My GEN8, SCX-10.2, TRX4, and TF2 Marlin Crawler are all going to be fighting for Second place on the attention scale! Super stoked!👍🏼

Thanks, I like your style of explaining. I am looking for a scale crawler style rc but I watch to many videos an can't make up my mind?¿?¿ Track that package can't wait to see you review it and own it!

I picked one up on Friday and tthis is my 1st crawler. All the crawler guys at our hobbytown in Milwaukee recommended it. After running with some people over the weekend...I was doing the same lines as vets with expensive rigs! I'm quite happy with it. I added a winch, front bumper, and some heavy wheels and it conquered all!

4th crawler. Have the rest, and they all perform well, AFTER modifications, This kit(not RTR) has all the needs OOB. With my standard electronics, tires, and radio, this will be for the wife as I’m not planning on working on it like most others.

Mine will be here Monday!!!

Looking forward to comparison video as I still can’t decide on my first crawler 😂😂😂

If you have a low budget... Hobbywing 1080 ESC and Holmes Hobbies Trailmaster Sport Brushed. 27 or 35 Turn... If you've got a BIG budget, Castle Mamba X Brushless Motor/ESC combo. There are a LOT of choices, many of them good... Those are just two that I know are proven performers, on both ends of the budget spectrum.

I'm getting the overdrive gears for my trx4 bronco to see the difference

Can you do a review of the Tekno rc EB48.4 I am a sponsored driver for tekno rc, hobbywing, jconceps, bk servo, trinity motors, and boca bearing and I think this would be nice to see

hello! Which would you buy for personal use the enduro or the traxxas sport? thanks

Real 4x4 trucks all have very slightly faster gears in front for driving in snowy or slick conditions. If they didn't, the truck would easily side track and would be difficult to keep going straight. It only makes sense to have that in an RC.

Poles are not magnets it's how many poles are on the stator 3 is standard 5 is an upgrade but the can still only has 2 permanent magnets

TRX 4 Sport for the win!!

What is the plastic servo horn? I just earned one i dont speak english too much and i want to know it so i can improve it... Thanks!

just a heads up: servos are rated oz*in, not oz/in. If it was 180 oz/in that would mean it would be 360 oz/2 in which means it's stronger on the longer arm (which is clearly not true)

At 3:47 you compare the details of the body and it's clear windows specifically to the licensed body of the GEN8 which you highly praise in your video comparing the GEN8 to the TRX4 sport. Which do you think is the more expensive body, the one of the GEN8 or this new Enduro?

Old time guys didn't even get a servo. Tires were the main point of contention as far as why include it if it will be changed anyway. I do like the sound of this truck and am a long time Team Associated fan.

I'm glad they made an honest attempt this time! Looks like a quality product, should be a great performer, priced for nearly every budget. I have a feeling that the odd name came from the fact that the Chinese 1/12 Rig was sold under the "Associated" Brand, could have actually made the Bean Counters apprehensive.... Except for the RC10 b5, they've never really had a sales flop in their entire time as a Company! IF it failed, it might start hurting Buggy business. ..... I'm of course guessing. But my MBA and years running a business, just gives me a strong hunch....

And it looks like a Chevy Lov pick up.

Hey RC review! I love you videos but you take a lot of big pauses during your videos, which makes the video drag on and i would suggest doing small cuts to make it go by a little faster and keeping things to the point.

After you run it, break it, fix it and criticize it... I'll make a decision to buy it or not.

Hmmm. Overdrive axles yet they are not portals. Which makes no sense since that is something you do along with a DIG, 4 wheel steering, and so on. All for pure dedicated comp crawlers, not necessarily for a trail or scale crawlers. Even the tiny battery is an example of this, i don't get it. A trail crawler needs a bit of weight to look scale as it crawls, and the added battery is more than welcome for crawling on hiking trails. Or even a low and high speed transmission is welcome, so where is that on the team ASSociated? I find the cruise control more useful in a trail truck like on my Trx4 Bronco. And locking axles, to make those tight turns with open diffs, then switch to locked for mud or uphill. That's what makes a good scale crawler, not overdrive diffs for binding on high traction surfaces, and cheating. I can't believe you just mentioned a cheaters tool as a top positive attribute.
