3 жыл бұрынA pair of Element RC Gatekeepers hitting the rocks near Bear River California! John Schultz and I had some fun pushing each other around and having a good laugh! Any day spent rock crawling is a better day.

That opening shot with all the rigs rolling around flashed my brain back to the days of am/fm crystals. No way a wide open event like this could have happened. Ah, the old frequency clip board. Those were not the days.

Throttle and momentum will get you up more things than slow crawling 😁 It’s just a way of driving that I’ve evolved into over the years of driving.

Is it just me or did the yellow gatekeeper perform a bit better that the black? Are they running anything different. I ask because where everyone helps push the person in front over the rocks, looks like the sharp rock is getting caught on the belly pan, the yellow GK just goes over w/o a hitch.

Just a slightly different line. They are both basically stock.

Considering the tight space in the Gatekeeper, do you think a Mamba Micro X with a 540 size motor could fit in there?
@HarleyDesignsInc 3 жыл бұрын
Absolutely, just takes a little bit of space planning. Or adding another tray on the rear towers. Super easy.

Element gate keeper or axial rr10 bomber. Iv always like the bomber. But I like that this is on a chassis with a cage on it. Im just such an axial guy. Hahaha. Awesome video. Looks like fun.
@KTMcaptain 3 жыл бұрын
Is this even a question? The bomber is cheaper when completed, bigger, badder, and a 2.2 rig. For $150 more you get a motor, speed controller, radio, receiver, servo, wheels and tires. The Capra is a much closer comparison, but has portal axles, dig, and more clearance for the front tires to crawl.
@BlindGuyRc 3 жыл бұрын
@@KTMcaptain good point. My only thing with the element is the axles..... I just dont like the look if them hahahaha.... I did make a terrible comparison. I agree the Capra is a better one to compare. I have been interested in that. The gate keeper is still cool to say the least.
@KTMcaptain 3 жыл бұрын
@@BlindGuyRc it’s cool for sure, and I agree the axles look funky. Axial Currie f9 replicas and the vanquish versions look awesome. I don’t think element has kept up with the times though.
