This Outperformed ALL of my 1/10 RTR's!

[@AlexanderKowaliuk]

Alex kowaliuk here.hello Mr tomley I figured since iv been watching you for so long and commenting all the time you should know a little about me my name is Alexander valdimer kowaliuk. I live in plains Georgia that's where president Jimmy Carter is from I grew up in Chicago I'm 34 years old and my first rc was a bandit buggy my father took me to the hobby shop and I fell in love buy we couldn't afford an Rx so my dad went on eBay and bought me a used bandit buggy and aty 10 years old it blew my mind way more performance than the Niko cars id get for Christmas or a birthday. That's a little bit about me cheers for the show..

[@boduke9428]

I do love that classic 2 tone paint job on a square cornered pickup truck. Reminds me of a OBS Ford.

[@LukesVintageRC]

Saw this on Scale Builders Guild. Great fun.

[@MauzyrockRC]

Sweet little rig. Enduro seem to make good stuff. I loved the ice-capades at the end :)

[@jimlachance2181]

You have been doing a lot of crawlers here in Canada we ditched the foam and used brass BB’s in the wheels to keep them soft and ditch the foams but takes some tuning to get it right great video again cheers

[@alantaylor353]

"WHAT A NICE LITTLE TRUCK".!! 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍

[@4buzze1]

Front dig was sick

[@grrfy]

It looks just as good as the 1/10,which has proven itself to be one of my favourite crawlers. Shame the small version hasn't got the steering behind axle thing of its larger brother,that is a cool useful feature.

[@tomley_rc]

Yes, that steering behind axle is very good for clearance

[@niceguyniko]

Element just makes good crawlers. They are all awesome.

[@ryurc3033]

This looks like a real solid beginner truck, or solid for a young fella to tag along. My son started using a 1/12 . always imagined using that 1/12 ecx barrage frame under a little Suzuki looking body , just because it would be size accurate. What I always found about the smaller 1/12 trucks is they do hit some obstacles that a 1/10 years will struggle on. Like you said wheelbase

[@deanmachinerc]

I love my Team Associated Tioga and its basically the same as these and it has been a surprisingly great truck! These are awesome for the price! Great video as always friend! Stay cool and RC on!☮️

[@garykee1]

blue blue is my truck...this one didn't get stuck! nice and capable of the terrain you were running it in and impressed at the durability that nothing broke on it. cheers and see you in the next vid!

Since it comes with one Lilo, you should name it Stitch!!! What a cool remote set up. Element should use it for all their RTR's. Nice truck!!!🤘🤘🤘

haha.... nice idea!

[@AsurasWrath164]

Thats a lithium-ion battery. Not a lithium-Lon.

[@Scxjunkie]

I saw these online before they were released, excited to get my own for sure

[@tomley_rc]

Yes, it shocked me for sure!

[@scalerockrc]

This would be a great truck just to leave stock besides some wheels and tires, maybe brass hexes and just have fun with it. I bet 1.55x3.85 would be a good size on there.

[@themoldcars]

Love those laughs during game night.

[@TGravy-wp4rc]

I bought an Element Gatekeeper last year on sale, best stock performing crawler I've owned.

[@tomley_rc]

Great choice

[@Casitascrawlers]

Well this video is 8 months old but I just had a chance to see the Ecto version of this rig & was very impressed with the feel of the suspension it was super plush but the price is to high it should be around $179 or less. I was thinking about getting one & installing a brushless system & upgrading the servo & getting or making metal links.

[@callunsford4938]

Very good video 💯💯💯💯 and not a bad little rig

Thanks dude. We had to keep playing until she won haha. Raffle was drawn 1st Jan... UK Winner

Can you put wheels from a 1/10 on the Enduro12? Like my pinseekers from my sendero se?

[@tianl98765]

How does this compare with danchee ridgerock?

[@AnySumptionBanter]

what wheel size and hex are those? Ya, those tires and foams don't conform at all and the tread sometimes seems to fold onto themselves almost creating slicks. Seems also to be geared too high if its faster than walking pace; any idea on aftermarket gears? How do you feel about that servo? is it quick and can it turn those wheels under weight or just a little bound?

[@banana1658]

i just saw the associated mad van earlier and the chassis look very similar... i definitely want to make a van crawler out of it

[@rockeight]

Element out off box r the best performing trucks... me trailwalker out performs some big dollar truck. Still runing 1.55 but did get ssd axles n weight in front but it just destroys everything.. 1080 with 13t holmes motor..

[@Ayrton_Groesbeck]

I’ve been eyeing a Utb18, but this seems awesome

[@urg0nnah8me]

I would love to see a comparison between this and the CR12. I'm not willing to buy one of these to compare the two because, aside from the layout, it looks the same. Same battery, same motor, same shocks but different rails and layout. I have a hobbywing 1080 in my CR12 with the stock 380 and I've got the newer 1.55 x 3.85 grabbers on it and it's way better. Night and day from stock. I prefer the layout of the cr12 with the 3s over the front but I like this body so we'll see if I can make that happen.

[@TechWizMaster]

i have the team associated CR12 Tioga version of this truck and it's pretty good i like it.

[@Mr.NiceGuy80]

After hearing the way Clarkson said celebratory on top gear, I thought that was him trying to be funny. I heard you say it the same way, and I guess that's how it is said there. As an American, it's funny to hear the different pronunciations of certain words.

[@Pablo668]

Great little truck. Are you still competing in rock crawling events?

[@dangerranger3297]

what is the tiny little camera you put on the rcs?

[@The94gtmoose]

Been tossing the idea around that I would buy my first crawler soon. I didn’t know element was apart of Team Associated. I’m a bit of a TA fanboy so this may be the crawler that I get.

[@masonwiggins9658]

Hey! Do you know where I can find an aftermarket servo I just stripped mine

[@jimbailey1337]

That for the money, looks decent 👍

[@kenc4s134]

What is the wheel base on that, maybe a good size for a clod body build

[@callunsford4938]

What do you think about the losi 22s sct trophy truck

I like how the instruction manual looks like a repair manual from an auto parts store.

Hey man do you still have your gspeed crawler

[@zachattack0130]

With some high clearance links and soft tires this thing would be a beast

[@michaeldorich4485]

I don't know much about crawlers. Based on your previous videos on the same terrain that was very impressive. It crawls very well and then has more than enough speed for a trail truck. It is a great crawler. I know nothing about crawling competition. With all then different scale crawlers, where does a 12th scale crawler fit? Great video.

[@tomley_rc]

I'm not sure the 1/12 scene is that popular for competitions. But for the price, it's the perfect addition for some fun

[@michaeldorich4485]

@@tomley_rc Thanks for the quick answer. I agree it looks like a lot of fun. I also enjoyed the part of the video where you and your daughter were playing the board game. Associated is really stepping up with some outstanding products in a variety types of cars and trucks.

[@Gibsonlife573]

I really really really really really like that

[@Isuzu_Paul]

Here's an off the wall question.... How wide are those 1/12 axles? I wonder if they would fit under and MN models.

[@austinkoeppen6122]

Pretty cool that they made a whole board game for the inside of the lid.

Do you know where I can get some upgrades for this?

[@turboturdrc]

thanks for the link

[@mosescheng5827]

Should this be my next crawler? I have a 1 18th scale and I was wondering if this could be like a hop up

[@BangForYourBuckRc]

Question is, is it as good as it’s the Tioga twin brother? Which would you prefer of the 2 as far as performance goes?

[@tomley_rc]

This is quite a bit different. Axles, Suspension mounting points, servo on axle, better electronics and a few other things. So although I don't have a CR12 Tioga, I expect this new one would be better

[@freddieflanders]

I love my outback 3's which ive converted into land rover series's this enduro makes a good alternative !

How does it compare in size to the RGT Jimny? Looks like it could be close.

[@tomley_rc]

Similar.. in fact it's very close to the same size. A bit lighter though

[@wordreet]

Tis pretty good, even though I don't really like stuff smaller than 1/10th. Even though I may have nearly half a dozen!

[@tomley_rc]

haha

[@shanefetterolf6707]

Great video, as usual. Though the scale isn’t the most useful, this looks to be a pretty nice rig. Be even better if the aftermarket support is available. I have a 1/10 HD and it’s proven to be one of my most capable trail trucks

[@tomley_rc]

Yes, not much to do with 1/12's other than have some fun :)

[@Casitascrawlers]

The more I see of it the more I like it but I have no idea what I’d do with it at that size so done had said there was upgrades but at that scale I don’t see any I’m sure Element provides replacement parts but I’m talking about upgrades the UTB 18 when it first came out people had comments about the size but 1:18 is more common but most importantly the aftermarket made tons of parts for it making it worth purchasing.

[@tomley_rc]

Yes, strange size..... just for fun I guess

Cute rc truck. Rc cars can be beautiful looking without the need to put licenced bodies. Element rc for example and others make nice looking bodies that are not licenced bodies. I like when you make videos with cheap rc cars, because not all the people have money to buy only the expensive fast rc's and crawlers. For example me i buy all my cheap rc cars with monthly payments and this happens only if the store i buy with monthly payments has the models i like, or else i can't and just watch videos of them.
