Element RC: Trailrunner 4×4

Last year Team Associated announced the new brand Element RC (distributed in Europe by RUDDOG) and today the US brand revealed the brand new Enduro Trailrunner 4×4. This Ready To Run Trail Truck is going to be on sale from next month. It comes equipped with a high-strength pre-painted polycarbonate body  with removable front lower valance, injection-molded fender flares, B-pillar appliqués, door handles, windshield wipers, mirrors and front grill installed right out of the box.

The body of the Enduro Trailrunner 4×4 included also a injection-molded roof rack, athree-piece front bumper with D-rings, a snorkel and an accessory decal sheet so you can customize it as you like.

Officially Licensed Tires. Gripping the trail is a set of officially licensed General Grabber(TM) A/T X tires molded in a high-performance, soft compound rubber. The General Grabber(TM) A/T X tires are mounted on three-piece 1.55″ beadlock wheels. No more worrying if your Ready To Run tires will come unglued.

At the heart of the Trailrunner 4×4 is the Stealth(R) X gearbox. Although the exterior appears to have a conventional 3-gear transmission look, the inside is far from conventional. The Stealth(R) X features the ability to adjust the rear drive ratio independently from the front drive in 3 levels. Stock overdrives the front end 5.7%, option 1 provides a one-to-one drive ratio front to rear and option 2 overdrives the front end 11.83%.

This Trail Truck comes with performance-driven Reedy Power electronics. The all-new, ultra-smooth and powerful, 16-turn 5-slot brushed crawler motor and Reedy Power SC400X electronic speed controller with T-plug connector, supply ample power to this tough rig. Controlling the beast on the trail is our new 3-channel XP130 2.4GHz radio and Reedy Power high-torque 1320MG metal gear servo.

Feeding the power to the tires are three-piece telescopic driveshafts with an extruded aluminum center section, universal front drive axles, and hardened steel ring and pinion gears. The engineers at Area 51 Design Works came up with the Independent Front Suspension conversion kit. Now you can get that same kit in an RTR vehicle. Pre-assembled with the same quality and features, this trail truck comes equipped with IFS and is scale ready to tackle rough off-road terrain right out of the box.
