Extreme Testing the NEW Enduro Bushido RC Crawler!

[@theoagrc]

Cheers for showing the clean down process Phil. Looks like a great crawler dude!

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks mate. Appreciate it

Great vid!!! The wheels are beadlocks. Just remove the six lugs and they come apart. The nice thing is they will work with SLW hexes. 🤘🤘🤘

[@pocketfuloducks1062]

Great vid, really appreciate the little cleaning tip bit.

[@TomleyRC]

No problem 👍

[@TipoftheMitt69]

I really appreciate the definition. I’ve always considered RC as “pet like” and this is a loyal dog, little short base bulldog.

[@ihsrc4220]

Bushido!! Awesome dude... Your vids are getting better and better 🤩 cheers man 👊🏻

[@TomleyRC]

Appreciate it dude 👌

[@dexterbeattie7884]

BUSHIDO! some nice shot's in that video.

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks mate

[@michaeldorich4485]

The crawler look good and performed well. I think the area you use to test your crawlers may be as close to perfect as possible. You have amazing rocks, water and mud. I realize at different times of the year there is possible less mud and water. I enjoyed your test run and clean up tips.

[@TomleyRC]

It’s perfect for all sorts of testing. I’m glad I found it a few years back!

[@fertred]

​@TomleyRC what's the quarry you go to near lincoln?

[@SharkysGarageRCandMore]

Awesome rig, if i didn't have "Brawn" i would buy this right now ! Awesome cleaning tips at the end, another great video mate

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks Karl… appreciate it 👌

[@rrrccc1571]

Good to see your cleaning process as well!

Yes, thought I’d add it… people always ask

[@ciaranburke3243]

That little thing is cool love the cleaning process 😄👍

[@SavageJoe_]

Love the little tip on cleaning there at the end. Such an awesome looking truck, hopefully one day I can get a scale trail/crawler RC.

Awesome little truck. You definitely tested that one. Like it.

Cheers dude

[@thegreattreon0177]

Now I'm not a crawler or trail truck guy but this thing's a beast! Might have to get one of these!

[@mattster197]

Hey T. Here is a quick and cleaner lubricating tip. Try using spray graphite. Its an aerosol can but it sprays graphite which is a dry material. so it has fantastic lubrication qualities and its dry and easy to apply so not as messy.

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks for the tip dude

[@Dreiviertel]

Or dry lube, initially a spray and liquid it crawls into every crack and then dries. I use the one I bought for my mountainbike chain.

[@thatcarguyldnstreets]

@@DreiviertelYou won’t get the same results, dry lube is just WD40 and it makes a mess

[@mattster197]

@@thatcarguyldnstreets there is a graphite that is powder or spray that drys like powder. It’s not the easiest to apply but doesn’t tack and hold dirt.

[@lo2713]

Nice cleaning tips, i’ll be useing them if i get to try out any crawling 👍 Austing looked like he was enjoying that blow dry 😁

[@paulmcnamara2908]

Looks a very cool little truck for sure buddy! Loving the Slo-mo footage! 😁👌

[@nicholasfrank2428]

So I've got some pretty small hands too, I have found sticking a wpl v3 tire on the radio wheel helps with the reach! You have to stretch it on so it stays pretty good! Just a thought

[@allantaylor3064]

Brilliant looking rig but at that price point definitely should come with interior and inner wings but still a fantastic review as always 👍🏻

[@Pablo668]

I like the clean down process. Good vid.

[@wildabeast_szwarc]

I dare say that you ARE the only one that cares about interiors, definitely the only one I've heard mention it. But what do I know, I've only been in the hobby for... (counting on my fingers)... 22 years? Everybody has their gripes though.

[@MCsCreations]

Awesome looking truck, Phil! 😃 Great ride and review! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@MrDude2237]

New year so I vote new “beginner build from scratch” 😁😁 (I’m new to the hobby and love your channel!)

[@RCvapor]

Nice video 👍 I use a cheap air pump (bought for my kids paddling pool) to dry off my RC, works a treat 👍

[@TomleyRC]

Yes. Lots of options… the Pet Dryer is a game changer for me on the winter 🤩

[@davidives7204]

Another cracking video and I shall be venturing more into the mud this year thanks to your great tips & tools. 😊

[@soma_rc]

Omg, that pet dryer is such a great tool for cleaning cars. Why is this the first time I see somebody using that?

Merci

@@TomleyRC 😉

[@doubledome2076]

Tomley rc is my favourite‼️👍👍🦾🦾

[@MandaPii_]

Very similar cleaning procedure as I do. I remove the body and wheels and toss those in the sink to rinse them last. Then I take my airbrush with air-compressor to remove any dirt from the chassis and a hairdryer to dry up all the moisture. And maybe take a paper towel and some q-tips in some of the tiny crevices to be sure. Then I grease up any mechanical bits with a white lithium grease which is water repellent. Then I just clean the body and wheels under tap with an old dish washing brush if needed.

[@TomleyRC]

Perfect 👌

[@TheRCScotsman]

Well, it's a good thing I'm not currently in the process of making my own _long_ wheelbase craw... Ah.

[@TomleyRC]

😅

[@roypennock8046]

My first crawler kit was the Axial UMG10 a couple years back... Can't beat that SWB manoeuvrability on tight trails.👍 AND it has an interior!😉

[@WheelsRC]

Nice review Phil. Element does it again.

[@ryurc3033]

I had to look it up, but I knew I remembered a video game, Bushido blade..... instantly popped in my head.

[@ryurc3033]

The one thing I'm not a fan of is getting foams dried out. I used to leave wheels sealed up, but performance suffers. Dual stage foams are way to expensive to let them go bad....however vented tires, chucked in a drill at high speed....most of the water comes out. But when I have certain wheels on, water just is not allowed. Not going to trash 50$ steel wheels and 40$ worth of dual stage foam to play in a puddle. Heck I really don't even like sticking most trucks in any mud at all, yes electronics are waterproof, but bearings get expensive after a while.

[@jayb.london5464]

Nice video Phill. ... I see that you've also bought that same pet dryer I have recomeended on Facebook couple of weeks ago 😊

[@geevintv6689]

Perfect timing 😍😍😍 i was just looking for new uploads.

[@shawnthomas444]

Fantastic video as always! I love my rc4wd short wheelbase trucks- might need to add one of these to the fleet. Just needs an interior and inner fenders!

[@roblowrie1969]

Another great smaller scale crawler. Element certainly make great cars. And we have something in common, hating stupid body pins!! I either swap them out of the Arrma type, with the rubber straps, but they don't look great, or bend the loop part of the pin up a bit, so I can get my sausage fingers in and pull the stupid things off!! 😆

[@adamwolfy4826]

I had a 1/10 ftx texan, i loved it, i lengthened the wheelbase, and although it crawled/climbed better, it was so much fun to trail drive on tge stick short wheelbase

[@dtrdragon9567]

You set off my Alexa with that bushido question. Lol

[@MangoJim90]

I love 250-275mm rigs, For trail and light bash.....😍🤩🐾🐾 No interior inside😍😂👍 Btw, this car is Matt's favourite 😉🤭🙌

[@ElijahBradley08]

To stop the body from rattling about I usually put some loom bands around the body posts for it to sit on and that stops it.

[@thejeepinrealtor5742]

Great video. Thx for the content!

[@MidCoast]

Element is my go tocrawler brand, I own a few different brands but for some reason I have accumulated more elements, the bushido is one I still don't have, maybe that changes soon

[@static_bolt]

I own a samurai so I plan on getting one of these, I am one of the people kinda bothered by its scale but that mostly has to do with me owning a RC4WD Trail finder 2 85 4Runner as my main crawler so I like to keep everything around its scale. I used to own a 85 4runner as my daily driver before losing it in a fire last year so owning it in RC makes me happy, so I deff want to get this to match my full size sammy

[@JonnieB.]

Nice video Tomley. What’s the newer body style Jimny crawler you showed in the beginning?

[@TomleyRC]

FTX Paso.. also comes under the RGT brand

[@JonnieB.]

@@TomleyRC thanks!

[@geetee7154]

Nice one Phil.it certainly looks very capable, i'm not sure about the short bed body though, it looks out of proportion, maybe it's just me

[@AphexTwinII]

That sticker...She is from the movie Total Recal, "Two weeks!". Super random they put that in there.

[@FireBlade57]

I recommend a brushless hairdryer to dry it. They have some serious punch.

[@IowaBudgetRCBashers]

Not gonna lie, I want one. Always liked the real samurai, so the crawler version is on my want list

[@TomleyRC]

It’s looks really nice on the trail 👌

[@troythegoat69_17]

Man this looks 10x cooler with a figure inside. Where size is that figure ?

[@ClassicSteelRC]

Awesome video and pretty cool rig! I agree that manufacturers should be featuring inner fenders and clipless body mounting. It's 2023, and there's no reason for such outdated methods of body mounting.

[@DKThedriver]

Really like your videos, you are really talking nice understandable with nice laugh, we can hear you are enjoying your hobby 100% thats why im a subber to you! - BUT for cleaning you could use a painting pensel either round or flat, just to get the hard spots clean aswell, try it out u not regret it, i use it on my pc all the time to remove dust :)

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks Frank. I have a cleaning brush (used for alloy wheels) which I usually use, but forgot in this one haha

[@chevyb0195]

I want a SWB now.

[@kevingilroy]

Commenting just to feed the algorithm.

[@TomleyRC]

😇

[@FeralRC]

I haven't had much luck with those receivers and a splash of water. I'm assuming that box is very well sealed. Our Trailrunner was not so lucky. Always a good upgrade to a WP1080!

[@MandaPii_]

I just seal up the receiver box with some silicone sealant for use in aquariums just to be sure. Just put a bit around any place water could possibly get in, like holes and the edge of the lid. The sealant isn't an adhesive but will seal it up nicely so you can still easily take it apart. Just be sure to seal it up again when taking it apart. It might not look great, but it works a treat.

[@TomleyRC]

Yes, this one seems to have a little rubber seal on the lid

[@Granite-City-RC]

looks cool enough ......... hows the no maintenance truck going ?

[@DirtyPlumbus]

Just curious, what lube do you use? Aside from lithium grease in the sealed parts, I actually use M-Pro 7 gun oil for everything that's exposed.

[@TomleyRC]

Usually MTB/Bike wet oil

[@MrCveedub]

[@Chopper1095]

Well I thought I had enough Crawlers but I think I might have to buy one more.

[@rwlair]

If you cut some pieces from a foam egg crate I think you could improvise some inner fenders.

[@christiansrcs7789]

what i do is put hotglue inside the receiver case and that water proofes it

[@TomleyRC]

This one has a rubber seal on it… so should be good 👌

[@Qthewingedserpent]

The sticker of the woman is Arnies disguise in the original Total recall film when he sneaks through the mars customs checkpoint ( no clue why it’s on the sticker sheet though!).

[@DirtyPlumbus]

Not a big fan of the body on this one but swap that out for a VW Bug body or something and it would be amazing. Definitely a pretty capable build.

[@joshbaker9774]

Still enjoying the ENduro.......but think i may need this....on that, any recommended upgrages for my Enduro? New servo maybe?

you're lucky i put my trailrunner in the snow got the esc wet and it let all the smoke out after two outings. i contacted AE and they its is water resistant not waterproof... i bought a spektrum 2in1 brushless and i have my trailrunner underwater more times then above water havent had an issue since. some get lucky i guess.

Please could you do a comparison between the Element axles on this and the ones on the Sport Edition? Its hard to tell what the differences are.
