Trailseekers: Trailing Solo! with Redcat Everest Gen7 Pro
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 гру 2017
- Had took a day off on Monday, had access to my brother's car... so what better way then to go crawling by myself! Lol
Went to 2 locations: First part was some muddy action and the second was some challenging rock terrain.
Also tried doing following shots with a gimbal while controlling and man.... I can ya it ain't easy at all (as you can see I had a hard time keeping in frame!)
Changes made to my Gen7: Part 1 I was running on 3S lipo and though I like the increased power, it was more difficult to feather the throttle at slow speed. Part 2 I went back to 2S lipo.
Also used shrink wrap to cover the driveshaft connections and they held up well!

Ordered the Gen 7 pro and will receive it in the next few weeks ( weather ) snowing in Kingman AZ right now ( 2/26/2023 ).Spring is on the way and look forward to doing some trailing. Video is great. Thank for posting.
I'm 77 and loving it. Gen 7s are next to my heart. What a great trail run.
Nice! Did you change anything with the gears?
A lil Bruno Mars while crawling who would have ever thought😂 nice vid bro💯
This is the best video of the red cat gen7 good job brother
Nice vid. Redcat looked great on the trails. What a bargain these are too. Looks a really capable rig.
Awesome video!!!! I have the RedCat Everest Gen7 Pro and it is AWESOME!! It has great traction and is a very durable RC car.
This is really a great truck! Love mine, and I beat the crap out of it too! Great video
I love the way you crawl with it. So realistic. Awesome video.
Great vid, funny, nice job. I am buying me one. I have had Redcat vehicles before but this looks awesome and has some great parts on it. Love the Super Swampers...
Still got mine and still going strong... Redcat the best...
Nice video, I have a Gen7 also. What a great trail truck for the money! I can't wait for the Gen8 to be released.
The Gen 7 looks good in the wood panel decals. Great job on the video. Really enjoyed!
Nice rig!! Love the mud bogging 👍🏻👍🏻
Great Video! & Great Driving!
Nice trail run! Love my gen7!
Am really liking that Redcat, fantastic running video my friend, liked and subbed you well done 👍😁👍
Super nice 👍 trailing dude 🚙👍
really nice video of this crawler
Great video, greetings from Brazil!
Awesome mud trail video~
Big Like~!
awesome trailing!
superb vid.
No Bugs Were Harmed in the filming of this run. Gen 7 Pro is awesome. Just picked one up this past Sunday. Very happy with this rig overall! Redcat knocked it out of the park with this one.
Just ordered 1, can't wait to drive it
Any issues so far. We're you able to use the steering adjustment hacks to get the turning better
No issues, I've seen how some guys bend the rod to clear the diff, is that what you mean?
It came with a curved rod, it clears the diff, I will trim the fenders just a bit, looks like there's a clearance issue there
NICE TRUCK
The mud part from 3:51 is nice!
Very cool...
I like it when you censored it made me laught
lindo video, parabens amigo
How greatful
Great video dude, not sure the thumbs down just haters.
Love your vids. Just subscribed. Do you know about how long the stock battery lasts? I dont have a ton of money for upgrades and I'm new at the hobby. Thanks
Awesome video and rig only thing that kills the gen imo is the huge diffs like the e10 😔 otherwise they look great!
hows it holding up over time and what mods have you done?
TJ the rc Guy Hi! Yeah the huge pumpkin is a pain in the ass but overall, the Gen7 is holding up well.
Right now it's got the high steer knuckles, metal c-hubs, a more powerful metal gear servo with metal horn, aluminium driveshafts from redcat and still have weights at front and rear axles. Now waiting on metal transmission gears and I think this gen7 will be bulletproof lol
I have also red cat sports and doing solo all the time new friend here
I have a TRX 4 , and the Gen 7 Pro , same as yours , I'm a dit suprised by how much I like the Gen 7 , are you happy with yours ? Other than the thin , and generic body , seems pretty good . Nice group you guys have , I enjoy watching your trail adventures , thanks .
Thanks! I do like my Gen7 Pro and I enjoy trying to improve it bit by bit. Love my TRX4 as well... I love them all haha.
I got some major changes for the gen7 coming soon, so stay tuned! ;p
I'm getting my first ever crawler or rc in general and this is definitely they one how's the battery life?
Very nice video especially at the 5 minute and 5 Second Mark I love that song What was the name of it and who made it thank you very much.
BIGGBULLxxx Hi! Song is Bruno Mars - That's What I Like (instrumental)
looked into these really hard but looking at the amazon reviews, they have lots that arrive with broken links and several had broken the steering knuckles on their first outing. Too many stories for me to buy but the people that have them that didn't break, man what a bargain.
jackalo626 well can't say much about those arrived with broken links, but those broke after first outing I believe it has got to do with how they play with them. I've seen vids of ppl getting real rough with their cars and am not surprised those stock plastics won't last long under such handling.
Anyway, get the metal upgrades, they are really worth it
Bad reviews are probably first time users with only one tooth in their mouth and they let their kid sit on it while driving it thru the hog pen.
@@monstersdoexist lol
What is that grinding sound it sometimes makes like gear slippage?
Sick video !!!
I really like the red cat gen 7
But I don not own one yet
What’s your take on the rig ???
Black Diamond RC Ranch Hi! It's a very capable rig for its price, and its got lots of potential if you know how to tinkle with it.👍🏼
Tommy Lim
thanks !!!!
It is the one to get if you can't get the TRX-4 for sure. I run a TRX-4. Im thinking of getting a Gen 7 because of the price...
Have one it is good
Bro is this truck good? You went which part of Kent ridge? Can have the address
i got my gen7 pro too
Achei da hora
Lol. .title made it sound like you out driving alone for hundreds of miles.😅
After this survival bring the the jeep to the carwash?
Are you using the stock motor?
xxCloudModsxx Yep! Same motor since day one. Quite lasting, especially since it went through water, mud and all 👍🏼
tempted to get one myself. cant decide whether to go Pro or the basic Sport.... May I know where can I get these in SG besides online ?
Zul Hamzah hi Zul! At the moment I don't think you can get it locally, i got mine from Atees. If you're are first timer buyer in Atees, you can use a promo voucher that's worth I think 10 or 15% discount. There are many videos on the Sport and the Pro that can help you decide, I choose the Pro because it has the metal diff lockers and internal hinged roll cage. The Sport will be lighter and probably more fun to bash around. :)
TOMS ahhh yes! 10-15% is a big deal for me. HAHAHA 'budget stranded' for a fun hobby. heheeee hope to trail soon together IF i ever get one. hehehe
Zul Hamzah meanwhile check out the Trailseekers Facebook for more videos on our weekly outings! And drop a comment too, so that the admin can spot you and rope you in haha
TOMS guess what. 😎😎😎😎😎😎 ordered the Pro! now we wait. 😋
Zul Hamzah awesome! Drop a comment in our Facebook page Trailseekers and I'll get the admin to rope you in to our whatsapp chat group and decide on our weekly crawling sessions. 😁
I think that the pro is a little too top heavy. I'm going to get the sport because I am going to change the body right away anyways.
christopher marks it performs a lot better with the roof stuff removed.
Did a 4000mah 2s fit in?
Standard lipo packs no problem. Been running lipos all the while
How long does the battery take to go dead on this
Jake Smith Hi! The stock 3000mah battery last me for about an hour. I recommend using lipo instead, a 5000mah can last me a few hours. Get those banana plug to deans adapters :)
Was the truck stock?
puchie357 Hi! Largely stock in this video. Running on lipo, added weights to front and rear axles and used bent rod ends on steering
So the truck is really water proof? I was reading up on it and they were saying only one part of it was
puchie357 fully waterproof! Both receiver and esc. Been in the dunk numerous times with no problems. Just remember to wash away with clean water and dry (naturally or with air can)
How do you wash it? Just shoot it with a hose?
puchie357 with a shower hose will do
your battery cord is hanging out

Do you have foam in your tires ?
