Element RC Enduro Sendero picture archive- NO TALKING

My IFS Gatekeeper is finally nearing completion. Just waiting on a few IFS upgrade parts from Bowhouse, a waterproof Rx box, and machined wheels...then paint interior...then install Rx & ESC...and, finally, install a few "special" upgrade parts & decals.

I found the stock Gatekeeper way too tippy....some wider AR60's should help.

Rear was a drop in, front needed custom shock towers and panhard mount to work. It's a bit ugly, but it's nice and solid. Took quite a bit of trial and error, but I get full travel w/o bump steer, the large arches in the Element chassis work out perfect.

Very Impressive!"thumbsup"

I like the look and the stance! It fits that cage so much better than the stock width axles.
 
My "Riverside Fire Department Search & Rescue" Gatekeeper still has a ways to go (I haven't even started painting the interior)...but, thought I'd share a few photos showing what it currently looks like.

None of the lighting is wired up yet, the ESC still isn't installed, plus I have to disassemble/reassemble the IFS, to install some 'upgrade' parts...but, it's getting closer. The wheels & tires (from the VS4-10 Phoenix kit) currently installed aren't permanent. I already have a different set of machined wheels, plus I'm considering wider tires...just need to figure out (any suggestions???) which wider tires might be best (wheels are still 'standard' width).

Still magnet mounted , need to draw and print a narrow rear bumper.


Hang up and Drive
 
Finally finished this GK. I've been out of the hobby for a bit and it is light years ahead of anything Ive owned in the past. Looking forward to getting it on the rocks





 
Out around the neighbourhood with my nephew. TRX4 tactical and Element enduro TrailWalker 4x4. Was better than playing video games in my opinion at least.
