INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing this Element RC product. This assembly manual contains instructions and tips for building and maintaining your new Enduro chassis. Please take a moment to read through this manual to help familiarize yourself with these steps. We are continually changing and improving our designs; therefore, actual parts may appear slightly different than in the illustrations. New parts will be noted on supplementary sheets located in the appropriate parts bags.

ENDURO TRAIL TRUCK

A performance rig built to endure. When hitting the trail, you want to do it with confi dence and the answer is the all new Enduro Trail Truck!

At the heart of the Enduro is our revolutionary Stealth® X gearbox. Although the exterior appears to have a conventional 3-gear transmission look, the inside is far from conventional. The Stealth® X features the ability to adjust the rear drive ratio independently of the front drive across three levels: stock overdrives the front end 5.7% (installed in RTR), option 1 provides a one-to-one drive ratio front-to-rear (available separately), and option 2 overdrives the front end 11.83% (included with RTR).

Feeding the power to the tires are 3-piece telescopic driveshafts with an extruded aluminum center section, universal front drive axles, and hardened steel ring and pinion gears. With the Enduro drivetrain, delivering useful power will not be an issue.
We relocated the steering link assembly from the conventional location, to behind the axle (BTA). This feature greatly improves approach angle and front end clearance, making rough terrain much easier to handle.

The Enduro Trail Truck comes ready for adventure right out of the box, with performance-driven Reedy Power electronics. The all-new, ultra-smooth and powerful, 16-turn 5-slot brushed crawler motor and Reedy Power SC480X electronic speed controller with T-plug connector, supply ample power to this tough rig. Controlling the beast on the trail is our 3-channel XP130 2.4GHz radio and Reedy Power high-torque 1532MG metal gear servo.
With all this packed in one box, we know the Enduro Trail Truck is ready for the trail… Are you?

BUILD CONFIGURATION

STEALTH X: BUILD CONFIGURATION

OVERDRIVE: Overdrive is a scenario where the front and rear wheels do not rotate at the same speed. The Stealth X gearbox is designed to allow the front wheels to spin faster than the rear wheels. Overdrive is advantageouse when climbing up rock faces because the front tires will want to pull the vehicle up the rock. On desents, the rear tires rotating slower than the front tires will help keep the chassis more stable and keep the rear tires planted on the ground.

Stealth X: The Stealth X gearbox allows the driver to change the front to rear drive ratios with 3 separate ratio adjustments to the rear drive shaft. The driver has the option to flip the gearbox direction (motor mount facing the front) the optional inverse top shaft (#42024) is required.

Please Note: The 20T top shaft, 28T idler gear, and 52T drive gear will always be meshed together in all 6 gearbox configurations.
