    I really like the overall design of the vehicle and the shape of the suspension.

    Nice!!! Can you add rear tail lights? And what about an interior for a 6inch driver?😮

      I've seen 1 guy add tail lights, and it looked like he 3d printed them. It was just a simple rectangle tail light. Check out cults3d.com they have an interior for the Zuul and looks like it would fit a 6 inch driver 👍 Thanks for watching 🙏

    Had a similar issue. Mine was the front left wheel and the shocks and drive shaft had all popped out.

      Big quality control issue with the Zuul it seems. That's unfortunate we have to fix a "RTR" 😅

    Great video great info,bummer came that way, I think you nailed it done on a Friday someone wanted to go home. Question I really like the zuul and the enduro ecto ,are they any different other than the bodies? Thanks I’m torn like both and subscribed

    • @ManitobaRC

      Thank you 😊 I'm just glad it wasn't broken, but the quality control should be better! The blue Zuul has the independent front suspension and solid rear axle, also has the scratch and weather body. The Ecto has a solid front axle and solid rear axle. Both trucks have the rear trailing arm setup, not traditional lower links like most other crawlers. To be honest, you might be happier with the performance of Ecto, the IFS on the Zuul does not perform as well compared to a solid front axle. If you really like the Zuul body, they have a brown/beige body version and it comes with a solid front axle like the Ecto. Sorry for the paragraph lol, and thank you for the subscribe and comment 👍

    I like the Elements, have the origional zuul for like 4 months, just unboxed it this weekend.. thanks for showing the out of the box issue, Subb sent your way, support all CDN channels that pop up in my feed.

      I like that Element has a lot of variety in their lineup. I'm glad I waited for the zuul with the IFS2 upgrade, but funny that it came out the way it did 😅 I guess it could have been worse. I'm glad it was able to be fixed, and nothing was missing 🙏 I appreciate the sub and will return the favor, I support my fellow CDN channels as well 🇨🇦

      ​@radioactivescalerc I'll be getting out for a few more runs soon. My first run went pretty good, pretty impressed how well the IFS can flex. But still need a few more runs to see how durable the IFS is, thanks for watching 🙏

    Hey thanks for the info appreciate it yes something to think about I have always heard ecto great value great performer haha I do prefer blue zuul body don’t have a ifs front end thanks

      No problem Chris, I agree with you I really like the blue Zuul body. The IFS was also upgraded on the Zuul, better ground clearance than the previous version

    So they realized it was missing a wheel when they boxed it up and just tossed one in the box?? That’s mind boggling! I guess it’s lucky that they decided to send one at all.

    • @ManitobaRC
      @ManitobaRC  6 месяцев назад +3

      It sure looks that way. There is no way the wheel and steering knuckle can pop off fully like that, especially if it was put together. I prefer builders kits over Rtr's and this adds to the reasons why I prefer kits. Anyways thanks for watching MrBowser, there's a full running video you can check out now of the Zuul 👍

    So the truck comes pre-broke for us? Nice! I think I’ll pass on that junk 😂

    • @ManitobaRC
      @ManitobaRC  3 месяца назад

      Nothing was broken, just very poorly assembled. It shouldn't have left the factory like that, but I'm glad I got to share what could happen and how to fix it.

    Wow that’s terrible quality control I love the look of the rig I have a Ecto & Sendero HD & SE with servo on axle mount. I’ve always been a Element Fan but it seems like they need a change of direction to make it a better company & create new updated vehicles not just the same things presented in a different way. I’d love to see them come out with a LCG comp rig.

    • @ManitobaRC
      @ManitobaRC  6 месяцев назад +1

      Absolutely terrible, this truck must have been boxed last minute on a Friday. I hope they do make changes to, more rigs and less quality control is not what we need. I like the idea of Element doing a LCG, could be something they release this year still. Thanks for watching the video!
