Overview
The Element RC Enduro Ecto Black RTR is a 1/10 scale ready-to-run 4WD trail truck and rock crawler designed for serious off-road enthusiasts. Built on the proven Enduro platform, the Ecto combines advanced Gatekeeper Suspension (GKS), adjustable drivetrain tuning, and durable components into a trail-ready package with an aggressive blacked-out look.
What makes the Enduro Ecto special is the Gatekeeper Suspension package.
