Element RC has released the new Enduro Trailwalker Black RTR with a Scratch N’ Weather body. The updated Trailwalker looks wicked and reminds me of an older truck you would take in the woods for some off-road fun. The new Trailwalker Black is loaded with performance parts as well as the Stealth X gearbox. But what intrigued me the most was the Scratch N’ Weather body. Weathering a body is not easy to do, it requires time and a lot of prep work. With the Scratch N’ Weather all you have to do is grab some sandpaper had hit a few spots. The way it works is the inside of the body is painted a rust color, the outside is painted with a mat black, so when the outside of the paint is scuffed up or rubbed off, the inside paint will show through, giving you a weathered look. This body will be great for people who want to learn the weathering technique but are afraid to take the leap. Or, let the trails do the work for you. After our time driving the Trailwalker Black, the rig has gotten some trail rash. Little scratches from branches and rocks look realistic, and the more you drive it the more the body blooms.
