1/10 Scale Element Ecto | Ep 14 - Sidehill Test After Mods to Lower Ride Height & Center of Gravity

[@techquest5394]

An extremely capable rig, especially when you remember the price point, and no portals or dig. Kudos to the driver too! What do you think about high clearance links fo this?

[@BigSungHobbies]

Definitely capable rig. I will be definitely looking into high clearance links for the front lowers at some point. It will help with cresting over ledges.

Thank you!

Is this the same course that Rcreviews channel uses? Looks very familiar.. I subscribed

[@BigSungHobbies]

Thanks for the Sub, and yes it is the same location. We are located close to each other, and we both frequent it to test our rigs.

@@BigSungHobbies I'm up in the air on a Ecto or Trx4 sport. Very close in price and performance, the ecto would win if it had portals also. Weight of the trx concerns me though. Good videos I've been digging through them. Not many good crawling locations around me so I don't even know if I can justify one, but man are they fun to watch

@@robertwoerner20 The good news is that you won't go wrong with either choice. That being said, out of the box Ecto should be a better performer. It has better weight distribution, longer wheelbase, better body for crawlers. And don't let the lack of portals steer you away from it. There are pros and cons to both straight axles vs. portals. I use my LCG element on everything, and most folks are impressed with my rig.
