Nice review!! I owned this Bushido with 1/12 scale because the bushido 1/10 scale looks too large vs my Element Knightrunner. The Bushido 12 is more a 1/10 scale vs other 1/10 scales rigs ! Check out others video with Bushido 1/10 scale with others scale 1/10 and you will seeing the body oh the version 1/10 very too large! Aniway, nice little rig with plenty of potential ! 👍👍
Thanks very much 👍 Yeah most tenth scale aren't true tenth scale tbh, they're more like 1/8! I just bought the tenth scale Bushido, haven't tried it yet though. 👍
It's a great spot isn't it. The wheels are 1.9" Injora and tyres are HPI Rovers. For a 12th scale its quite big tbh and has lots of tyre clearance. The HPI Rovers are a smaller tyre too. 👍
did better than even i thought it would do and yea i want to put a 1080 in it ive got 1 lying around just need to change the motor connections for it plus ive moved the battery tray now since u have had it so more forward weight. always welcome to borrow anything when i get them new scratches make a car hehe
Thanks very much mate, really appreciate it. 👍😁 Yeah I was really impressed with it, especially for the price. I think it's got huge potential. 👍 Should be much better with a 1080 in it. Tbf it wasn't bad, but a 1080 would make it so much smoother. 👍 Look forward to seeing what you do with it mate. 👍😎
I have wanted to get one of these element 12th scale but the electrics really put me of, i recently got hold of the servo dimensions and hunted for a replacement only one i could find was a spectrum at $60, there is a company doing a bracket to fit a standard size but that part is $20, then new wheels an tyres and possibly change radio and esc out
The stock electronics aren't bad tbf and the servo was ok for an rtr. On the servo, if you wanted to save money, you could maybe just make your own bracket to mount either a more powerful micro servo, or a normal sized servo. I was impressed with it's performance though, especially for the price. The stock tyres didn't look great though. 👍
I was really impressed. 👍 I ran the stock battery. I didn't really test runtime, as I ran it two different times. I doubt you'd get much more than an hour or so on the stock battery though. 👍
What size are the wheels & tires you put it on? Interested to get one of these. Also it looks more 1/10 than its 1/10 big brother as that one is overly huge for a Jimny 😂
Wheels are 1.9's, not sure on exact size of tyres, they're a smaller 1.9 though. I've added links to the video description for them. 👍 Yeah it's a big 1/12, not many rigs are true to scale these days! 🤷♂️
@darioson99 You could run a bigger battery yeah, but not a massive one. It's actually quite a light rig though, so even the stock battery lasts a while. 👍
🤣 Tbh everyone changes those same parts on rigs triple the price, so it's no different really. You don't have to change them though, the stock electronics handled all that terrain without issue. If you were on a budget, I'd just change the wheels and tyres. 👍

Agreed! The bigger Bushido is more like a 1/8 size or 1/6
i hope you do more videos on this rig
Hopefully will do if Ben let's me put some more scratches on it! 🤣👍
@@DoURC u know i dont mind scratches on it lol
@bencrocker9444 🤣 Cheers mate. 👍😁 Appreciate you letting me use it. 👍😎
Killer crawling spot on those rocks! What size wheels are those if it fits 12 scale?
It's a great spot isn't it. The wheels are 1.9" Injora and tyres are HPI Rovers. For a 12th scale its quite big tbh and has lots of tyre clearance. The HPI Rovers are a smaller tyre too. 👍
@@DoURC The tyre/wheel combo really set it off. Reason I ask is I have 12 scale cars with 1.55" wheels.

i have the big boy Bushido in 1/10. i would like to get the 1/12 one eventually
Ah nice, I'd like the 1/10 version too. 👍
What are those wheels and tires that you installed? I would love to get my hands on them for my Bushido
The wheels are Injora CRAW18258_09GL, their 1.9 beadlocks. The tyres are HPI Rover red/rock Crawlers. 👍
Nice 👍🏾🔥
Thanks very much 👍😎
awesome!
Thanks very much 👍
Thats a nice little crawler!😮
Whats the stock battery time or what batteries are you running on it?
I was really impressed. 👍
I ran the stock battery. I didn't really test runtime, as I ran it two different times. I doubt you'd get much more than an hour or so on the stock battery though. 👍
Damn it I already ordered the trail runner version
I'm sure that will be great too. I've seen other Element rigs at events and they always do really well. 👍
I wonder if they make a lift kit for it tho, I really like the lifted look
Hey, What wheels are you using, would like to get these exact ones.
They're Injora beadlock wheels. 👍
@@DoURC Thanks alot
Is bushido waterproof?
Can't remember what I said on the video. It doesn't say it's waterproof online, which normally implies it's not. 😬

@@DoURCAlso does it fit a bigger battery?
@darioson99 You could run a bigger battery yeah, but not a massive one. It's actually quite a light rig though, so even the stock battery lasts a while. 👍
Holmeshobbies has an revolver for this truck
Nice, brushless would be awesome on this. 👍
Furitek also has a motor/esc kit for the Utb18 that drops right in this rig.
So it needs new electronics, new servo, different tires.... Kinda feels like tiggers broom at this point! :)
🤣 Tbh everyone changes those same parts on rigs triple the price, so it's no different really. You don't have to change them though, the stock electronics handled all that terrain without issue.

rtr means ready to replace, right?
