  • In this video, I do a head-to-head comparison of the stock General Grabber tires and the Pro-Line Trencher Crawler tires (amzn.to/3jm2eIW).
    The Pro-Line Trencher Crawler tires have already proven themselves capable on Grandpa Roadside's Redcat Gen8. Now, we give them a test in the Predator compound on this Element ECTO rc crawler!

    That's a nice demonstration! Nice work. Just like on your real car, tires make ALL the difference in the world.

    Hello!!!
    I receive mine soon and i want to know if i can put Trencher tires on the original wheels?
    Thanks for answer

    @cjv29er 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Give it a set of wheels with a little bit of offset…like SSD. Some variants, like the Slot and 8-hole designs have 3mm on it.

    I know this is a dumb question but I'm absolutely brand new to the hobby. I noticed you didn't glue those prolines. Do you need to do that or do you just slide them on and go.

    • @RoadsideRC
      @RoadsideRC  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      These are on beadlock wheels. The wheels actually clamp the bead of the tire.

    Looking for my next crawler. Curious, why choose an Ecto over a Sendero HD? Is the Ecto more capable?

    • @RoadsideRC
      @RoadsideRC  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I chose the Ecto specifically as it was the newest variant of the Enduro.
      I have not driven it back-to-back with a Sendero, but here is my thoughts:
      - The Ecto has a huge advantage in performance just simply due to the body & bumper design. This is for weight and for tire access.
      - the sendero has a more typical rear suspension design, which is a plus compared to the trailing arm setup.
      Honestly, I would pick whichever you thought looked better.
      Personally, I give the nod to the Ecto due to the body and bumper design.

      They are a really good tire.
      I had actually purchased these before I ever purchased the truck. If I knew he was going to run them, I would have purposely picked something else.

      Thanks for the feedback!
      It is quite 50/50 in the rc video world of folks that enjoy it, and folks that don't.
      I try to strike a balance of having it as background music, but it doesn't always balance out that way.
      Thanks again!
