I would like to see a Dodge Ramcharger body on there!! And I feel like anything smaller than 1/24th scale would be micro, 1/24th up to maybe 1/16 would be mini.
I’ve had horrible luck with mine. If you wanna get it and run it straight how it is out of the box it’s ok I guess. If you wanna do any upgrades then it’s gonna start breaking. I’ve finally got mine running after switching driveshafts to the scx24 driveshafts and giving it some rc4wd wheels and tires. It has bushings all throughout which suck! Plastic gears are insane. The battery included is a 1s and has ZERO power. Huge diff covers or pumpkins that drag on everything. I don’t even wanna get started with the throttle response 😂. Can’t believe Team Associated or “element” would even put their name on this thing. Sorry but I’m not gonna sugar coat this thing like everyone else on RUclips is.
. Would need to so much to it just to make it crawl right. It needs a Holmes hobbies revolver motor if you can fit one. Not worth it. Might be good for your kids tho to get them to stop bugging you to drive your axial scx24
Scale Builder's Guild U both should watch 2fm rc’s review. Now he is a small youtuber and not a pro by any means but that also makes him have child-like honesty. Lol. He does 3-4 videos on the element and tries to almost talk himself out of bashing it at some points. Not saying by any means that he’s the only review or opinion, but it is a good small time honest review on a very disappointing truck from a big name rc company. So in that right, it might be considered a bit garbage. Just saying🤷♂️😂
I have both the scx24 and this truck, I find there is some stuff that the scx24 won’t climb but the enduro24 will and vise versa. I find the drag brake in the enduro is actually pretty good with the stock body, but that might change with the addition of a hard body. And yeah the 1/20 AMT Toyota body is a perfect wheel base match for the enduro.
Have the scx2r and this as well. Totally agree they each have their high points. Added a tungsten weight to the front beer and brushless motor, now the scx24 can't keep up over the rocks or on flat ground. Both have their place and are worth the money.
Oddly enough, associated first used another. Rebranded truck as thier first crawler. The cr12 is a rebranded... Thunder Tiger? IIRC. i was glad because it made those sweet 1.55 wheels cheaper with a US distributer lol
I have a Jeep Honcho for my Pro-Line Ambush. I am definitely liking the latest offerings of 24th scale. Looks like I'll be getting something small in the next couple months.
Micro to me seems like a micro bot. Tiny tiny tiny. Mini is a bit more accurate. I think I’ll get one and put my 1/24th scale 1970 Opel Gt model Body on it. Lol and yes it will be patina.
Not "of course" tires are glued, other trucks of the same size (Hobby Plus, Anewi, Uruav, also the 1/18 Atlas) do have real beadlock wheels, very nice for tuning with wheelweights and foams.
I have both the SCX24 C10 and Enduro 24. Purchased Axial 2 weeks ago and already 2 burnt ESC and a Motor----really annoyed with the Axial product and nothing in stock here to replace burnt stuff. I ended up picking up the Enduro tonight to deal with my newfound 24 addiction awaiting a new brushless setup for my Axial. The Enduro out of the box to me was a better performer compared to the C10, I think partly due to the sticky tires and springs. I've been a Team Associated Fan for years and years and not one of them has let me down. My RC18T2 has been boom-proof and still runs like a champ. My favorite go-to brand though is Arma if they made a 24th scale sign me up.
Micros are 1/24 and under. Minis are 1/16 and 1/18. Large Scale is 1/5 and 1/4, and I suppose you could probably add 1/6 into that as those are around now
Matt are the speed controls on these linear? Came up in discussion the scx24 has like 3 throttle positions: "slow", "medium", "not as slow". Are these elements better with throttle control? The axials seem obsurd like old mechanical tamiya esc. Oh and sorry we californians cant get our crap together and proline btf got cancelled. I still owe you tacos.
Slightly smaller wheels and tires than 1.0" despite the advertised specs. This is the same size wheel used on all the 1/24 ECX/Barrage/ RGT Adventurer/FTX Outback, and the HobbyPlus CR-24 and CR-18. This truck and all I've mentioned however use the same standard 7mm hex used on Losi micro crawlers/trail Trekkers and RC4WD
Not "of course" tires are glued to the rims. Other 1/24 (Hobby Plus, Amewi, Uruav trucks, Devastator and similar crawlers, 1/18 Atlas 6x6, ...) do have real beadlock wheels, what is supercool for tuning with wheel weights and foams.
@@scalebuildersguild Yes - but the "new ones" do have beadlocks, and this is really cool. Struggeling to make wheel weights e.g. also for the Mini-Z 4x4 (glued on wheels), but not in the CR-24, Atlas, ... This is a really cool feature and those tiny beadlocks work perfectly. You should make a review of a CR-24 ;-) (Defender, Jeep), they are sold as Uruav, Amewi, Hobby Plus (guess Hobby Plus is original). The new hardbodies for Mini-z 4x4 (Defender, Mercedes) from Asiatees and RcMart fit perfectly to those (and probably also the Element 1/24).
Def does give me idea's on taking perhaps a Revell/Monogram/AMT (etc) body and finding ways to mount it complete with interior. And I'm typing this as I glance over at an unopened Revell 1/24 1984 Ford "Bull Nose" Bronco model kit sitting on the shelf. Obviously some mods need to happen, but I think it's doable. Say, there's an idea for a winter time monthly mayhem series... Or perhaps a contest with the viewers (or SGB members). :-)
It also has some new features like a dig function, the new body, deep bed, overland bed rack, inireor, ls swapped engine mold, inner fenders, a little charecter, and its an RTR but doesn come with a batterey and charger.
Cool. My only problem is I've seen ALOT of micros come and go over the years. None of them have stuck around. You buy one and at some point...sooner than later....there no parts support(aftermarket or factory)then it because a shelf-queen.
I just got mine today and I love it. Definitely going to do some upgrades and mods and I'm using a Tamiya Land Cruiser 80 series SUV body on mine. Have a kit that's missing a few parts and I actually bought the Enduro24 to be able to finally use this body 🤣
Where did the summer go? I didn’t know it even arrived! I thought we just had a few abnormally hot days from March 43rd to 51st. I was watching this with my cat and he attacked my phone when the truck was moving around on the bench. Silly animals.
I would call 1/24 or 1/18 mini and micro would be 1/32 and smaller (like the 1/87 trucks). I would like to get one of these and an SCX24 and some scale model bodies for them. I've had a Devastator for a couple of years and it does have worm gears and beadlock wheels. It's sold as a 1/24, but it has a 1/32 Ford truck body which makes it a 1/32 monster truck. The chassis is more like a comp crawler so fitting a scale body is very difficult.
Micro is 1 inch. Minny would be about 3 inchs. I got the axial 24. I cannot find the kyosho 4×4. Maybe this one. I want a humvee body. Or I'll have to make one
I agree. Great price point and good for adding your own body, which you unfortunately have to do because the stock body looks SO cheap and ugly! I wonder if there is any chance of aftermarket support for this truck.
If it had a separate esc and. Receiver it’d fly off the shelf, a good cheap brushed esc for one would be $5 ~ individual buy then it’d need a cheap radio system then perfect
I don’t feel like this was a very “honest” review and it was more of a paid review. Kinda disappointed. This rig doesn’t even come close to the scx24 in so so many ways. Probably 10+ negatives compared to scx24 for almost same price! Would of liked to see u tell the truth on this one! Disappointed matt. Disappointed!
Sorry you feel that way. But where did you feel I wasn't honest in this review? The layout is fresh (to me) for this scale, offers a lot of opportunities for modifying and adding your own body, shocks are springy, and it could use a motor upgrade. All of these points are the truth. If I were to do a comparison video, absolutely the SCX24 would score higher, but this isn't a comparo.
Scale Builder's Guild I wasn’t necessarily trying to offend u, I was just surprised that u would recommend this knowing there are way better options at similar pricing. So, the body is junk compared to any other 24th scale. (Fresh because it’s so cheap and looks like a basher not a scale crawler.. lol). The others are all hard body with most on hinges and way more detail. Also the bushings are junk. The driveshafts break or come off as soon as u use a 2 cell lipo which is definitely the minimal these little rigs should have. The power is terrible. The slow crawl on this is jumpy as hell and makes it hard to crawl. It’s either all or nothing with the trigger which is annoying and weird. Most upgrades I’ve done on mine (if I can find them) just make something else on the truck break. The bigger pumpkins are always gettin hung up and are way to big for this little rig. And the fact that they rebranded a very underwhelming older rig is lame for a big company like element. The tires are a bit small which is also a problem for clearance. Not having worn gears actually makes drag brake terrible compared to other little crawlers. The servo being mounted on the chassis is a negative cause it only allows for so much shock articulation and this is is a bummer. Oh, and Phillips head screws!?!?!? Seriously, hobby grade!?!?!?🤦♂️💩🤦♂️🤷♂️. There is definitely more that I could say but I just though u would of said what it wasn’t along with what it was. Didn’t expect U to just bash it but it doesn’t really deserve a great/good review either. Wish I watched other people’s reviews before I bought it and completely wasted my time and money. I gave it to the kids and once it’s broke that’s it, it’s going in the trash. It’s nothing but frustrating and disappointing imo. Do not waste time and money when u could buy sxc24 for nearly same price. Again. Not trying to be a a-hole because I enjoy ur channel very much but this 24th scale is terrible and I would hate to see people waste their money if they saw ur video and had a good feeling after seeing it. That’s why I was disappointed I guess. It was kinda false advertising in a way.
A few things you might want to clarify. The only hard body mini I can think of is from RC4WD. The Axial body, while hinged, is still lexan. Bushings are pretty common at this scale. Using a 2S Lipo is obviously going to break things, as it's overpowering a stock driveline. I wouldn't do that in an SCX24 either. I'm with you on drag brake not being good, and say so in the review. Axial's the only one I can think of using Hex hardware. As it's a mini/micro RC, in it's own right, it's not that bad, certainly not as bad as you're implying. But, that's the great thing about opinions, we're all entitled to one!
Scale Builder's Guild well since the axial comes with a 2 s lipo stock l, which u should of know probably, that’s probably what the element should of had and I hope u are running!?!? Also ur right, the scx does have lexan but it’s way way nicer more options and I think we both could agree. The hex hardware should be a must in a hobby grade car 24th scale or not. and that we could agree also I’m sure. I stripped 3 screws in the first few days and I am very careful and meticulous with all my vehicles. Watch a few other small youtuber reviews (ones that actually paid for it) on this element and then u will see that I’m definitely not over playing the negative build and quality of this truck. And I agree, opinions make America great and I respect ur opinion but I unfortunately do not agree with you on this. And by the look of ur post on this video, I’m not alone. 😉👍. Can I ask u an honest question? Being that the truck was sent to u free, could u of even gave an honest review if u wanted??? Probably a lot of grey in that question and ur answer but my point is probably already made. And like I said matt, I like ur channel and enjoy ur content so I respectfully say that my opinions/truths about this truck are not personal and I hope we can shake hands and move on my friend. Hope u have a nice day and weekend. 🤝🤙✌️
A hard body for this... 🤔🤔🤔🤔. Not sure if will fit but tamiya mini 4wd has a few possibilities... Toyota landcruiser racing . Toyota landcruiser 100 wagon. Nissan King Cab.. (might not be wide enough.). There is a wild willy but those are rare and expensive if found for sale..
@@2fmrc If have been on a quest to fix the sins of past builds before I get a new RC, and I have made great strides and avoided temptation... But, this is starting to become an itch I have to scratch...
DargoDog do you have any other 1/24s? If not I would definitely get the scx24 over this thing. Trust me I have 5 scx24s and I’ve never broken as much on them as I have this thing. One of my scx24s is even running 3s on a Holmes revolver brushless system with stock driveline and I still haven’t broken anything. I put a 2s lipo in the E24 and broke the driveshafts and a dog bone the first time I tried to climb anything. Bigger tires don’t work because they will run the chassis,shocks and front bumper. I had to mount rc4wd steel beadlocks backwards to widen the truck enough to slap on some bigger tires to help the massive pumpkins clear anything lol. I didn’t come here to push my channel. Just trying to save people money. You can however check out my problems and comparisons between the two on my channel if interested. If you really want a challenge and don’t mind wasting money go for the element. That’s why I bought it and I have still became so aggravated with it that I’ve all but gave up on it lol. The throttle response is horrible! It has bushings,Phillips head screws and many many more issues.
DargoDog no problem. Like I said I wouldn’t try to push anything on anyone but I also don’t wanna see people waste their money without at least being warned lol
They both have their merits. I prefer the licensed body/excellent details/scale accuracy and dig feature of the SCX10III, but the Traxxas TRX4 Sport Kit is very robust and well engineered. Comes down to what you place importance on. Both will perform admirably with upgrades, or box stock!
The scxlll does have a way way nicer body no question. The dig is nice but they were to cheap to even give u the ability out of the box to use 2 speed trans and dig?! Weird but the axial still looks a lot better. I’d say for trail crawling the axial would be a great choice but if u wanna make it a rock crawler I still would choose the trx4 probably. Lower cg and the drivetrain and gearing is way better. Either truck is a good choice tho. Do some reviews on both depending on how you want to use it and maybe that will help you decide buddy. 👍
Also his videos and harleys are amazing! Great duo and the trx6x6 challenge was truly one of the best. Very epic and I think matt could of had him honestly. Next time Matt. Next time! Lol😁
I don't think you'll see that on the SBG. I didn't find it to be all that useful in my stable. Certainly an interesting and unique looking truck, but the chassis design leaves a lot to be desired.
@@scalebuildersguild I havent even seen the chassis. Just bashing and dusty donuts. Maybe squid shows it on the unboxing? But yeah its odd. I am curious as this is part of a new subline from CEN. call me cautiously excited? If I had an rc race boat, this thing would tow it for sure though.
I wonder why you guys totally ignore the originals... and then do reviews of the "American copies". I am sure Banggood would have sent you an original RGT for free, or an Uruav Defender with beadlocks. Can somewhat understand (but hate) this "America first attitude" from Josh, ... but you are Canadian...

"These Ones" are good!
I know Im kind of off topic but does anyone know a good website to watch newly released movies online ?
@Kolton Theo Flixportal :P
@Vincent Arjun thanks, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) Appreciate it !!
@Kolton Theo you are welcome :)
I used the 78 chevy big game country body on mine. Turned out real cool.
Garbage. Element failed on this one. They got lazy
Word 1000%.
I would have preferred to see a newly engineered truck as well, but is it garbage?

I think micro is 1/87 anything bigger has to be mini... I think
Haha I love they made another garage from the box! Those guys at element are great.

And yeah the 1/20 AMT Toyota body is a perfect wheel base match for the enduro.
Thanks for the info!
Have the scx2r and this as well. Totally agree they each have their high points. Added a tungsten weight to the front beer and brushless motor, now the scx24 can't keep up over the rocks or on flat ground. Both have their place and are worth the money.
This is THE EXACT same thing as the RGT 1/24, who copied who
I mention that right up front in the video. Element licensed it from RGT.
@@scalebuildersguild shoot. My bad, I was watching this during class.
Oddly enough, associated first used another. Rebranded truck as thier first crawler. The cr12 is a rebranded... Thunder Tiger? IIRC.
i was glad because it made those sweet 1.55 wheels cheaper with a US distributer lol
The bumpers are much improved from the 1/10 sandero

That one is pretty awesome. I'm still an axial fan. You should do a scx24vs Enduro24. Great vid Matt!

Or do something obsurd in 25 scale for monthly mayhem??? Sled Pulling competiton or something?
What size wheels does it come with? Could you upgrade to beadlocks and run bigger tires?
They're a standard 1" on a 7mm Hex, so yes, there should be a wealth of upgrades.
Slightly smaller wheels and tires than 1.0" despite the advertised specs.

Gremlin or a pacer body
There's a 87 1500 chevy with a plow 1/24 scale static model. That i would love to fit on my enduro 24

Hay dude how about a cool 80's van body or make it look like the original bigfoot before it had big wheels on it, or a wrecker style recovery pickup.
Micro is 1 inch. Minny would be about 3 inchs. I got the axial 24. I cannot find the kyosho 4×4. Maybe this one.
I want a humvee body. Or I'll have to make one
Except for the axle shape its really close to the chassis set up HPI had with the Venture. I'd have to go with a Dodge truck like 70-80s
Great video. I think the Orlandoo and smaller is micro but really it’s up to the owner... if you drive mostly 1/5 scale then yeah 1/24 is pretty micro
I agree. Great price point and good for adding your own body, which you unfortunately have to do because the stock body looks SO cheap and ugly! I wonder if there is any chance of aftermarket support for this truck.
Congratulations on getting over 40k subscribers Matt! Appreciate, as always, the great video. 👍✌️
Micro to me is 1/24th scale and mini would be 1/18th scale. I remember when the Losi MRC was labeled a mini at the 1/18th scale.
I think mini is 1/24 and larger, micro is smaller than 1/24. Also, will be interested to see where that overlanding trailer goes.
Way cool mini front mount motor! And I feel micro...scopic could be much smaller than 1/24 scale.
If it had a separate esc and. Receiver it’d fly off the shelf, a good cheap brushed esc for one would be $5 ~ individual buy then it’d need a cheap radio system then perfect
I would love to throw any of the Tamiya vw beetle bodies on here. Something different and not a typical truck body 👍🏻
Man that paint scheme is terrible...
Fair enough, thanks for watching!
For me, under 1:18 is micro. Under 1:10 down to 1:18 is mini. Just my preference of using the mini/vs micro terms.
I would put a larger motor and some metal upgrades to the chassis so that I could run a diecast square body Chevy.

A few things you might want to clarify. The only hard body mini I can think of is from RC4WD. The Axial body, while hinged, is still lexan. Bushings are pretty common at this scale. Using a 2S Lipo is obviously going to break things, as it's overpowering a stock driveline. I wouldn't do that in an SCX24 either. I'm with you on drag brake not being good, and say so in the review. Axial's the only one I can think of using Hex hardware. As it's a mini/micro RC, in it's own right, it's not that bad, certainly not as bad as you're implying. But, that's the great thing about opinions, we're all entitled to one!
Scale Builder's Guild well since the axial comes with a 2 s lipo stock l, which u should of know probably, that’s probably what the element should of had and I hope u are running!?!? Also ur right, the scx does have lexan but it’s way way nicer more options and I think we both could agree. The hex hardware should be a must in a hobby grade car 24th scale or not. and that we could agree also I’m sure. I stripped 3 screws in the first few days and I am very careful and meticulous with all my vehicles. Watch a few other small youtuber reviews (ones that actually paid for it) on this element and then u will see that I’m definitely not over playing the negative build and quality of this truck. And I agree, opinions make America great and I respect ur opinion but I unfortunately do not agree with you on this. And by the look of ur post on this video, I’m not alone. 😉👍. Can I ask u an honest question? Being that the truck was sent to u free, could u of even gave an honest review if u wanted??? Probably a lot of grey in that question and ur answer but my point is probably already made. And like I said matt, I like ur channel and enjoy ur content so I respectfully say that my opinions/truths about this truck are not personal and I hope we can shake hands and move on my friend. Hope u have a nice day and weekend. 🤝🤙✌️
Dodge L700
Tiny tiny yay! Makes 1/10 courses a Big (!) challenge!
For my birthday this year, I ordered one of those and a Crown Victoria model kit to use as a body. Worth it.
Looking for a 50/60 dodge w200 but found a Chevy instead. Build will be fun. Shock options for this?
Haven't seen any yet. I know HotRacing makes a set that might fit...
Dodge van 1975 to 1979 and call it Street Van (like Dodge )
id kinda like to see a mad max pinto.....juuuust sayin.
Micro to.me is anything i need to wear my glasses to work on.
A hard body for this... 🤔🤔🤔🤔.
Not sure if will fit but tamiya mini 4wd has a few possibilities...
Toyota landcruiser racing .
Toyota landcruiser 100 wagon.
Nissan King Cab.. (might not be wide enough.).
There is a wild willy but those are rare and expensive if found for sale..
Yup, going to have to pick one of these up.
Don’t do it lol
@@2fmrc If have been on a quest to fix the sins of past builds before I get a new RC, and I have made great strides and avoided temptation... But, this is starting to become an itch I have to scratch...
DargoDog do you have any other 1/24s? If not I would definitely get the scx24 over this thing. Trust me I have 5 scx24s and I’ve never broken as much on them as I have this thing. One of my scx24s is even running 3s on a Holmes revolver brushless system with stock driveline and I still haven’t broken anything. I put a 2s lipo in the E24 and broke the driveshafts and a dog bone the first time I tried to climb anything. Bigger tires don’t work because they will run the chassis,shocks and front bumper. I had to mount rc4wd steel beadlocks backwards to widen the truck enough to slap on some bigger tires to help the massive pumpkins clear anything lol. I didn’t come here to push my channel. Just trying to save people money. You can however check out my problems and comparisons between the two on my channel if interested. If you really want a challenge and don’t mind wasting money go for the element. That’s why I bought it and I have still became so aggravated with it that I’ve all but gave up on it lol. The throttle response is horrible! It has bushings,Phillips head screws and many many more issues.
@@2fmrc GREAT INFO!!! Thanks!
DargoDog no problem. Like I said I wouldn’t try to push anything on anyone but I also don’t wanna see people waste their money without at least being warned lol
Thank you for the details on the remote.
An old Datsun truck would be awesome
For a body I think a Ford woody might look neat!
love the tiny garage! do an early Bronco if you can find one!
Mini = 1/24, Micro = 1/32 and 1/78
Micro: did you see the video where the guy made a matchbox car radio controlled.... that’s micro.
Ultra Micro! Ha!
Your review hits all the right points.👍👍.
I appreciate that!
1:24 is scale, 1:18 is mini scale
1st view and comment
Confirmed.
One question what is better the axial scx 10ii or the Trx 4 sport kit and your videos are awesome
Traxxas if ur crawling probably. Just can’t beat it. It’s a beast.
They both have their merits. I prefer the licensed body/excellent details/scale accuracy and dig feature of the SCX10III, but the Traxxas TRX4 Sport Kit is very robust and well engineered. Comes down to what you place importance on. Both will perform admirably with upgrades, or box stock!
Scale Builder's Guild thank you ya and I’m on the fence it will be my first crawler and I’m just Nervous because there both good I just didn’t know
The scxlll does have a way way nicer body no question. The dig is nice but they were to cheap to even give u the ability out of the box to use 2 speed trans and dig?! Weird but the axial still looks a lot better. I’d say for trail crawling the axial would be a great choice but if u wanna make it a rock crawler I still would choose the trx4 probably. Lower cg and the drivetrain and gearing is way better. Either truck is a good choice tho. Do some reviews on both depending on how you want to use it and maybe that will help you decide buddy. 👍
Also his videos and harleys are amazing! Great duo and the trx6x6 challenge was truly one of the best. Very epic and I think matt could of had him honestly. Next time Matt. Next time! Lol😁
Reveiw the ced racing 1/10 scale ford f450
I don't think you'll see that on the SBG. I didn't find it to be all that useful in my stable. Certainly an interesting and unique looking truck, but the chassis design leaves a lot to be desired.
@@scalebuildersguild were you and Josh on the mailing list for them? Seems like you 2 got snubbed.... 🤷♂️
Never review the truck! There needs to be a dooley trail truck then I'll be interested.
Ha, I don't know about snubbed, but it probably wouldn't have gotten a very favorable review from me regardless.
@@scalebuildersguild I havent even seen the chassis. Just bashing and dusty donuts.
Maybe squid shows it on the unboxing? But yeah its odd. I am curious as this is part of a new subline from CEN. call me cautiously excited?
If I had an rc race boat, this thing would tow it for sure though.
🤘🏾💯
I wonder why you guys totally ignore the originals... and then do reviews of the "American copies". I am sure Banggood would have sent you an original RGT for free, or an Uruav Defender with beadlocks. Can somewhat understand (but hate) this "America first attitude" from Josh, ... but you are Canadian...
"Ignore" would imply I knew anything about it, from anyone else, before now.
@@scalebuildersguild There are countless videos on YT and numerous threads in the forums (not SBG ;) ), and they are not new.
Sounds like you’re very interested in the mini RC market. Thanks for the info!
What wheels are those on the big element? They look awesome
