INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing this Element RC product. This assembly manual contains instructions and tips for building and maintaining
your new Enduro chassis. Please take a moment to read through this manual to help familiarize yourself with these steps. We are
continually changing and improving our designs; therefore, actual parts may appear slightly different than in the illustrations. New parts
will be noted on supplementary sheets located in the appropriate parts bags.
ENDURO TRAIL TRUCK
WHERE SCALE LOOKS AND PERFORMANCE MEET:
When you want a rig designed with scale looks and performance in mind, you want the all-new Enduro Knightrunner 4x4 RTR
overland truck!
Aimed towards the scale adventurer, the Enduro Knightrunner 4X4 boast many of the same performance features found on many
of our other trail proven vehicles.
To maintain scale appearance without sacrifi cing performance, the engineers at Area 51 Design Works utilized the industry leading
Independent Front Suspension (IFS). The durable injection-molded upper and lower suspension arms paired with aluminum swing
rack and steering plates, enable the Knightrunner 4X4 to soak up the rough off-road terrain just like a full-size trail rig would.
At the center of the Knightrunner 4X4 chassis is AE’s revolutionary Stealth® X transmission. What makes this transmission
different from others is the ability to adjust the front and rear drive ratios independently across three different levels. Out of the
box, the Stealth® X comes pre-installed with the 5.7% overdrive gears. As an added bonus, the 11.83% overdrive gears are included,
but not installed. Available separately are a one-to-one ratio option for those who wish to drive the front and rear equally.
Like all other Element RC vehicles, the Knightrunner comes fully equipped with performance-driven Reedy Power electronics. The
Reedy SC480X ESC with T-plug connector and 16-turn 5-slot brushed motor combo deliver ultra-smooth power to the wheels.
Guiding the Knightrunner on trail are the XP130 3-channel 2.4GHz radio and high-torque metal gear 1320MG Reedy servo.
Packed full of features like this, it’s hard to keep the Knightrunner 4X4 RTR on the pavement and off the trails. It’s the perfect rig
for whatever adventures lie around the next corner. Your journey begins here!
With all this packed in one box, we know the Enduro Trail Truck is ready for the trail – Are you?
