|  Running in water.
I had asked this in the Enduro specific section but I guess I'll probably get a better answer here. I come from a racing/light bashing RC background and have always avoided running them in water, even the ones that are "waterproof." New to the crawling aspect with an Enduro RTR. I know the electronics are pretty much waterproof and the receiver box is sealed pretty good, but what else do I need to be aware of/concerned with when running in water with this guy? What extra precautions and after running maintenance should I be aware of with this truck specifically out of the box? I'm going to be running in a local comp somewhat geared for stock trucks/beginners this weekend and I'm pretty sure there will be a water section involved as most courses have. Truck Specific: Anyone know if the Element Enduro has bearings or bushings? I'm not sure which the RTR comes with and if the manual is different as it's used for the kit version as well and that comes with some "upgraded" parts compared to the RTR. Thanks! |

Mostly clean out the water to prevent rust in bearings and such. And the signal usualy dosent pass through water well. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |

not sure what kind of water, haven't seen the course yet. But I would imagine not "too" muddy.
