Element Enduro | 7 Best Upgrades and Mods

[@maikholz3355]

Samix RC parts are very stiff and beautiful! 👌🏼This was a good upgrade for my Enduro Sendero.

[@BigSungHobbies]

I really like Samix, SSD and Treal parts for Element Enduro. I don't think you will go wrong with any of them.

[@madanotsob]

Nice video. I plan on getting the updated HD version which address some of these issues without raising the price.

[@BigSungHobbies]

I love the new color scheme. My main rig is still Element Enduro, albeit it's now running on LCG chassis. It still has Element Stealth X trans, axles and shocks. I think you will enjoy it.

Awesome vid bro great break down of the vehicle 👍🏻💯

[@BigSungHobbies]

Appreciate it! How are you enjoying the TRX6? My concern is that it makes things too easy.

[@sprather84]

@@BigSungHobbies its Amazing not to easy it opens up new lines

[@BigSungHobbies]

@@sprather84 Definitely considering it as one of my future purchases...for now, I am focusing on building a LCG belly dragger...videos will be coming as I start to put them together.

[@sprather84]

@@BigSungHobbies I'm actually thinking about the Brazen ATL swap over for my TRX 4

[@PRaysCorner]

Great breakdown of the upgrades! Do you have links to recommended places to get these parts?

[@BigSungHobbies]

I have been sourcing most of them through Amainhobbies, Amazon and Ebay. I will add links to the description section.

Hey mate. I noticed you actually reply to people which is a nice change compared to other KZbinrs. I have an Ecto and looking at buying a Enduro Sendero HD as my next truck. Am I just buying another Ecto or are the differences enough to be noticeable between the 2? What's the main difference between the truck in this video and the HD? Thanks mate keep up the good work. 👍

[@BigSungHobbies]

@Rod Galley. Thanks for the comment and question. Let me respond first with comment that Enduro Sendero HD is a great truck. Sendero in this video is the original truck released by Element RC about 2.5 years ago. Think of it as version 1.0. It was a great truck, but it had few shortcomings such as very flexy rubber and chassis, weak lexan body, useless bumpers, etc... Sendero HD is version 2.0. They addressed many of the issues of OG Sendero. They added updated electronics, updated plastics, and an awesome HD high strength body with bed cage. So you won't go wrong with Sendero HD. That being said, since you already have Ecto which is probably the best performing Element RC truck at this time, I am not sure if Sendero HD is the right choice for your 2nd truck unless you really like the look of it. I know quite few folks that have multiple Element RC trucks including me (OG Sendero, Trailrunner, Knightrunner, Ecto). One thing that you might consider is picking up an Element Enduro Builder's Kit 2 (alnk.to/2jGWNCG) and building up your next rig. Just something to think over.

@@BigSungHobbies thanks mate. I have an Axial Gladiator as well so it's a third truck. I more like the scale look than anything with the cab and tray on the HD. My Ecto is a beast on the rocks after a few mods and I'm more than happy with it. The Gladiator is just a heavy truck and I use more for trail crawling than purely rocks. I just didn't want to end up with 2 Ecto's if that makes sense. I was hoping there would have been a difference enough to warrant buying a HD. Does the builders kit 2 have upgraded parts over the HD rtr version?

[@BigSungHobbies]

@@rodgalley9209 If you like the look of the Sendero HD, then you should get it. The fundamentals are same for pretty much all the Enduro line, but there are differences enough between them. Sendero HD has more traditional body, 12.3" wheelbase compared 12.8" wb of Ecto, straight links vs. rear trailing arms of Ecto. As for the builders kit 2, it has better shocks over HD, but everything else is pretty much the same.

[@rodgalley9209]

@@BigSungHobbies awesome help mate thank you. Thank you for also taking the time and making the effort to get back to me, really appreciate it.

[@BigSungHobbies]

@Rod Galley. You are welcome. Good luck on your next choice.

great upgrades and mods

[@BigSungHobbies]

Thank you very much for your comment! Much appreciated!

[@danielsonhobbies]

Do you have a link or brand for the wheels you are using? Does your current wheel setup rub when wheels are turn all the way?

[@BigSungHobbies]

I am using Proline Hyrax in predator compound for tires and cheap RCLIONS wheels from Amazon. There is no tire rub, but you need to set the endpoint correctly to ensure that your servo is not overturning.

[@danielsonhobbies]

Thank you!

[@fartdonkey8290]

Swapped forward and reverse wiring on my esc to make forward more sensitive, not ideal but much easier to drive

[@BigSungHobbies]

Yeah I find that having a better ESC and a transmitter that allows finer controls make it much better.

[@anastasistrats2916]

Do they have trailer hitches?

[@BigSungHobbies]

The VS4-10 rear bumper has a slot for trailer hitch, but I never tried so I am not sure.

[@jamesmay9028]

My enduro is making alot of noise and is shaking really badly any idea of what it could be

[@BigSungHobbies]

Sorry James. Without seeing the issue it will be too difficult to diagnose. I would isolate where the noise is coming from, and start from there.
