Element RC 40111 Gatekeeper Rock Crawler Trail Truck Element RC

A Performance Rig built to Endure.

When hitting the trail, you want to do it with performance and confidence. The all-new Enduro Gatekeeper Rock Crawler Buggy RTR delivers this and more!

Aimed towards the serious RC rock crawler enthusiast, the new Enduro Gatekeeper Buggy RTR is packed full of performance features that are sure to impress.

The all-new Gatekeeper Suspension package (GKS)! This package consists of rear trailing arms that move the shocks forward, allowing a larger window for shock tuning and providing improved weight bias. The trailing arms are paired with a rear anti-roll bar for a more stable and consistent suspension when crawling on the rocks. An adjustable aluminum track bar mount firmly bolted to the chassis rail gives the Enduro GK more reliable and responsive steering without the flex. Our shock mount inserts with multiple mounting positions allow for precise suspension tuning, whether it’s moving the shocks up, down, forward, or back.

The performance doesn’t stop there.

The Enduro GK is built on our proven stamped steel C-channel Enduro chassis and retains the same awesome features as before.

The behind-the-axle (BTA) steering link greatly improves approach angle and front-end clearance, making rough terrain much easier to handle. The Stealth(R) X features the ability to adjust the rear drive ratio independently from the front drive across three levels: stock overdrives the front end 5.7% (included with kit), option 1 provides a one-to-one drive ratio front-to-rear (available separately), and option 2 overdrives the front end 11.83% (included with kit).

Feeding the power to the tires are 3-piece telescopic driveshafts with an extruded aluminum center section, universal front drive axles, and hardened steel ring and pinion gears. With the Enduro GK drivetrain, delivering useful and reliable power will not be an issue.

The Enduro Gatekeeper Rock Crawler Buggy RTR isn’t just all about performance.

it’s got looks, too. With inspired styling from competition off road vehicles, the Enduro GK looks awesome tackling the terrain.

The new Gatekeeper buggy body comes equipped with a multi-piece injection-molded cage to replicate those found on full-size crawlers. The polycarbonate body panels are screen printed with the Element RC livery and are detailed with high-quality decals. Also included is an interior panel with injection-molded driver and passenger heads, along with detailed decals for gauge cluster, center console, navigation and body suits. The looks don’t stop there. Located in the back of the Gatekeeper body are a black, paintable, injection-molded radiator with cooling fans and detailed racing fuel cell. With all these cool scale details, the Gatekeeper caged body looks awesome on the trail.

Having a caged body may seem to make working on the GK chassis difficult, but that’s not the case. The removable hinged body mount allows the whole body to swing forward, granting access to the entire chassis and electronics. This makes working on the chassis a breeze, whether out on the trail or in the garage.

Officially Licensed Wheels and Tires

Gripping the trail is a set of officially licensed General Grabber X3 tires molded in a high-performance, soft compound rubber. The General Grabber X3 tires are mounted on officially licensed Method 701 Trail Series beadlock wheels. No more worrying if your RTR tires will come unglued.

The combination of industry leading General Tires and Method Wheels make the Enduro Gatekeeper look and perform great.

With all these amazing features packed in one box, we know the Enduro Gatekeeper Rock Crawler Buggy RTR is a high-performance rock crawling machine that’s ready to take on the terrain — are you?

Chassis Features

• STEALTH(R) X TRANSMISSION: Our transmission features the ability to adjust the rear drive ratio independently of the front drive in 3 levels: stock overdrives the front 5.7%, option 1 (not included) is a one-to-one drive ratio and option 2 overdrives the front 11.83%.
• ALUMINUM TRACK BAR MOUNT: The GKS package includes an aluminum track bar mount bolted directly to the steel frame rail, making the front suspension more rigid and flex-free with a more precise steering feel.
• SHOCK MOUNT INSERTS: GKS shock mount inserts provide drivers with the ability to tune shock angle, droop and vehicle ride height without affecting spring preload.
• REAR ANTI-ROLL BAR: The rear anti-roll bar helps keep the rear suspension stable while driving over rough terrain and improves climbability on steep inclines or side hills.
• REEDY POWER CRAWLER MOTOR: The Reedy Power 5-slot 14-turn brushed 550 crawler motor provides ample torque with a smooth power delivery. This allows for slow precise acceleration while maintaining consistent power over rough terrain and obstacles. /li>
• REEDY POWER ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROLLER (ESC): The water-resistant SC480X brushed ESC is specifically programmed for crawling with proportional forward/reverse, dual auxiliary power output leads, LiPo low-voltage cutoff protections, and T-plug connector.
• TRAILING ARM REAR SUSPENSION: At the heart of the Gatekeeper Suspension (GKS) are the rear trailing arms. This design moves the shocks forward, thus improving weight bias. Because the shock mounting points are farther forward on the lower links and chassis, this allows for a larger window for shock tuning and an optimized anti-roll bar mounting position.
