THE KNIGHTWALKER COMETH - Element Enduro Knightwalker RTR - Super Crawler Truck For Off-Road Walking

- I present to you the Element Enduro Knightwalker RTR. I talk about it, I drive it. Cool, huh?
I downloaded and 3D printed parts from Knight Customs: knightcustoms....
- If anybody has "half a brain"... & only some limited money/tight budget.
...they will "wait, with patience," watch, & learn, that RC companies like "this one," [will, most times], eventually get it, - "FINALLY GET IT RIGHT" **"after"** they cause most fools to buy the first two RTR releases, "suckerz", - which (always) come with a typical 98% complete set-up... - and most "look appealing," but, "only" have the bare minimum electronics, with a CHEAP servo that usually craps out, even when we use it properly !!! 🙄😏 And I really like, not love... Element, "BUT"...
- why can't they just fkn come out with THIS "3rd version" in the first fkn place, so we don't end up (later) piecing together hundreds of dollars of their post production, updated & ("usually") improved addendum/conversion kits.
- Why do I bring this "up"...!?! Because someone has to say it !!! It seems most hobby/rc hobby enthusiasts have plenty of money to throw around, to literally, "support" these RC ventures but these days... most of us CANNOT even afford rent, food, clothes, etc., and this "is how" (we) allow these "so called... "Premier/top notch" RC companies to "do us"..... 🤨...!!???
- So, moral of this/my short story/rant, is to educate the new RC enthusiasts, who are totally blind to these facts...
- most times, is by clear, detracted or an unengaged mind...naivety, or the "unknowing"-youthful inexperience, or a very common "silver-spoon-ism", or a lack of self-respect of their own, (usually) hard-earned money/income.
...And it is more about the "actual principle" of the issue, being that we are "now" in a dishonorable, a "hardly" properly regulated market, [formerly a "functional" capitalist market], due to the "ones" in gov. "NOT" DOING THEIR FKN JOB, WHICH "OUR" TAX DOLLARS (BILLIONS)... "PAY FOR !!!!"
- So when an RC company, which there are many... (most of them), "are" out there not just to make an honest profit, but to manipulate our cherished RC market, by literally "part-ing out," in a semi spendy, tiny "kit," the best/most updated & more functional components "LAST," - [towards the end] of an RC crawler's/trailtruck's (start to end) "production-duration" !!!! When (maybe) they could have "done it right, the 1st time... but instead, they drag it out over a couple years, meanwhile the RC platform is getting past its "half-life," which, seems to be "the norm," BUT...
...in my logical perspective, IS FKN WRONG !!!!
...BUT NO ONE SAYS MUCH, OR DOES ANYTHING ABOUT THIS "ever-ongoing," "SYSTEMIC FAILURE"...
...Where is [THE VALUE] "WE ALL" SHOULD BE RECEIVING IN EXCHANGE FOR OUR DEVALUED MONEY...!!!!?????
...And within a "reasonable" amount of time, which "is" hitched to the fact, that the RC platform will be (usually) discontinued, "sooner" than later now days. So compare to when the [original Axial RC company] "started this great new niché," back in 2014 !!!!
🤔 This goudging of "supplemented" parts-kits, like the IFS2, IS A SHAME, & shows "how far DOWN" some RC companies "WILL GO," to squeeze MORE OUT OF THEIR CUSTOMERS, WITHOUT THEM PUTTING IT ALL OUT IN "ONE RELEASE" !!!! 😏
- NO ONE STANDS UP NOR DOES ANY REPRESENTATIVE, "PAID" - (BY OUR OVER-TAXED DOLLARS).....
... **"Do Their Fkn Job"** ...
...WE PAID THEM TO DO. 😔... 😥
- I love "RC", & I used to love this "formerly functional country," people (humans) GAVE THEIR LIVES "FOR" !!!!
...WHEN WILL CHANGE FOR THE BEST START...!!!!????? 🤔
- For there is "NO" ACCOUNTABILITY... for the average, common, everyday tax-payer... People "NEED" to stand up & speak up, but more importantly, act.
- Please raise awareness, Thx. 🇺🇲 💯✌️
That is the most unhinged thing I’ve ever read. Can I print this on a t-shirt?
I think you have 3 trillion too many quotation marks but otherwise a solid read! New York Times best selling author perhaps?😂
“If you have a light bar you won’t need a winch” 😂
Lights before lockers
@@turksandjerps 😂🤘
Gorgeous kitten btw and looks a decent truck 👍
Thanks and thanks for watching until the end 🐈
Amazing truck and spot!
I had a Element SE & I purchased the body for $80 & painted it & put it together & it came out super good. The SE has front fenders & Servo on Axle I have a Fusion SE in it I’m looking to replace all the plastic links now.
Super vidéo 📼 merci 😊
And thank you
Have to say , the truck always looked good , the red is Awesome and straight axle puts it on the wish list !
Yes it’s a nice red truck
You can't ever go wrong with an Element, they're great rigs. They just need some work done to scale them out and we all know you can handle that. lol I love watching anything drive through Smiggin's Folly. ❤
Yes they are great starting points. Even if you don't do anything to them they look good too. But yes of course I can't leave well enough alone. Thanks for watching
Great job, Richard! Bless you for blowing the leaves away. Just this week, it dawned on me that I'll be watching scale trucks munch through enormous leaves until next spring, and it kinda bummed me out, 'cuz I'm a weirdo, and 'the illusion' is easy to spoil with me. You really do things right!
Thank you. This begins my daily ritual of blowing leaves from the Folly until December.
The body post holes on the hood are for the windshield washer nozzles upgrade.
😂❤
Truck!
Great Video, Well presented & nice music, i have now subscribed 👌🏼👍🏼
Thank you so much 👍
Very nice background, nice taco truck videos
Thanks 👍
Hi! We just adopted a kitten these days too, a beautiful and simple white & grey paint-scheme like yours.
Truck, video & humour very enjoyable, by the way ;)
Oh that’s awesome! Congrats on your kitten. Thanks for watching.
If Element would release this body/ tire combo, but with IFSv2 and trailing arms, it'd be absolutely perfect for a pre-runner.
Would be sick and possibly something I might do.
I love Turk, I love Jerp ❤
Jerp loves you
Excellent video. Amazing RC garden! ❤️🤘🏼👊🏼✌🏼
Thanks!
Always a pleasure watching! Best Folly on YT!
Thank you!
I know I may be a silent majority but I really do prefer the element rigs. I loved my builders kit and this one would be really cool to fill that lexan body void I’m having. Good review as always
This is my first Element that isn’t IFS but it is my forth total.
@@turksandjerps I would love to get the new IFS in a builders kit or with the knight runner body.
I’m a big element fan. Their body updates have been great. I just wish they would update to more scale looking axles. Center front pumpkins are a thing of the past.
Yes I’d like to see that and also clip less body mounting
Could you do a comparison review of this element solid axle swapped Tacoma vs. the Kyosho rear-independent swapped Tacoma?
What would you like compared? Taste or buoyancy?
i got a new knightwalker too but i just drive it at day time.
You better check the manual on that, it may not be covered under warranty if you do that
After owning the ecto now for awhile the first mod is new reciever to get better power to servo.. Turbo racing for the 8.4v win..
I think I’ll put in a new ESC/motor and receiver. I want to go brushless
KC light covers for the win.
+10 horsepower
Nice 👍🏾
Thanks for watching
If I have a winch can I get away with not getting a lightbar instead?
Maybe but you’re going to need a fridge freezer too
@5:30 did you say video games? Man I was all about gaming in the 90s up until early 2000s.
I don’t play video games often but did have the old NES out not long ago.
I think the Knightwalker is having a little identity crisis, sold as a crawler, but looks like a Prerunner/Trophy truck.
I wish I had a little spot just like yours to run my trail rigs, one day.
Tell that to the real truck it’s modeled after then. Demello’s SAS’d Tacoma. I think they call it Big Red.
making mine rear steering putting front axle in the rear
Interesting
Toyota is 100% kitten approved. Sell me your printed green 4 door one now that you have these two. Why is no one producing a gen 3 hardbody?
That was sold long ago. Would love a non-3D printed 3rd Gen to match my real truck. Well, Tacoma is not a real truck but you know what I mean.
Is a rely nece turk
👍
Why would you do a running video with no drone footage? What am I paying for here!😂
I crashed the drone into a tire fire
Esc/receiver combo in a 1/10 is garbage. You can’t waterproof it and once it’s fried you have to replace both…
Why can’t you waterproof it? Crack it open and hit it with some conformal coating or liquid electrical tape.
@@turksandjerps conformal would probably work well. Liquid electrical tape or a balloon might make it get too hot. I’ve been in the balloon camp since getting in the hobby. Can you add a stand alone receiver or esc without replacing the combo?
