    Not going to lie or inflate your ego but you have the most exciting new RC channel out there and I watch a lot. Everyone has a niche and yours is definitely “bulletproofing”. Keep it up! After I finish my shredder mod you for kaiju is next. Keep it up man! You are filling a need/want that hasn’t been filled until now! Big fan!

      THANK YOU! Jonathan you got me a little choked up on that comment. 😢 Thank you so much for your support for the kind words for the motivation. It’s hard for people to see how much work goes into these videos on this side. It’s pretty common for me to spend 10 or 12 hours a day building researching bashing filming and editing. It makes it all worthwhile when I hear a comment like that. I humbly thank you for being here. I will never forget this comment and will use it for fuel when I get discouraged. Sometime you hear the right thing at the right time to carry on.
      I’m so glad you’re BULLETPROOFING your Shredder it will be the best upgrade you’ll ever do on that RC. BULLETPROOFING the Kaiju will bring you the same success. I’m still trying to find a failure point in my BULLETPROOFED Redcat differentials. I’m proud to put my name on the process! Thank you again Jonathan! 🤙🏼☢️

    Big fan of the channel!
    Just now bought that motor heat sink and fan combo you have, as my single fan setup is not quite getting the motor cool enough.
    I must say though, I think I will set mine up to have the top fan be the exhaust, and the side fan pulling the air onto the motor. Heat rises, so it makes more sense in my head to vent that top heat away from the motor, and use the side fan as the intake, but I guess we will see!
    Been rocking my Kaiju since 2021, and upgrading, testing, bashing, and otherwise just optimizing whatever I can on this rig to make her as durable as I can. I have enough spare parts to build another Kaiju, just without the electronics. I hate waiting for spares!
    Your channel goes a lot deeper than others, and you cover all the points of interest in detail, and I truly appreciate that.
    Thanks for what you do, and keep up the great work!

      Thanks for watching and for being here noob! I remember when you joined the channel. Thanks! That Shredder really is some thing! I have some new videos coming out and I think I found the nastiest set of 24mm tires to ever roll on an RC. I don’t wanna spoil it but it’s a new beadlocked technology that is just rolling out. We will see if they can hold up to the dual motor Super Shredder! We are hitting some phenomenal speeds off road. Redcat fans will be shocked! BULLETPROOFED diffs still holding strong. 🤙🏼☢️

    I have the 1st gen Kaiju and have broken both rear cups..then after having it for almost 2 years I finally ran it on 6s and shredded the Plastic spur. Changed that over to A metal one Also added a dual fan set up on the motor since that bad boy gets a lil toasty. Only ran 2 full packs since owning it 7200 Gens Ace Hardcase

    • @RadioactiveRC
      @RadioactiveRC  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for watching JOE-MURPHY’S LIFE! The Kaiu is an amazing machine it just has a couple plastic pieces in the wrong spots. If you changed the plastic spur gear to a metal one you absolutely have to remove the pinion mesh set screw or your motor is on borrowed time. Honestly I rarely run the Kaiju on 6S because on 4s it’s a monster. Im doing a video on fan efficiency where I’m going to be using water vapor to show you how to better set up your fans. It’s all on how you exhaust the motor heat. 🤙🏼☢️

      Thanks for watching Steve and thanks for the kind words! The Shredder is amazing it just needs some after market tuning. The BULLETPROOFING method is the way to go for sure to get the most “Smiles per hour” out of your Redcat. Thanks for your support and recommendation it means a lot.

    • @RadioactiveRC
      @RadioactiveRC  2 роки тому +1

      The Kaishu motor is 6mm to wide in diameter to work on the Shredder motor mount. If you have the aftermarket motor mount it will fit. Your Shredder is BULLETPROOFED so put whatever motor you want on it diffs won’t care. I would avoid the 1/5 scale motors because the chassis being so thin at the motor mounts will not handle the torque very well. I’m using the Landslide 1900 KV motor on the 2wd 2 speed Shredcat and its loving it! 🤙🏼☢️

      What’s up MrAbuhamzah1 welcome to the channel! Those are all good questions. Since the making of this video Redcat has addressed most of these issues. Partly because of channels like mine that find the problems and correct them. If you were to buy either one of the Kaiju’s it’s a great truck. Every RC has its limits but this is one of the best bangs for the buck in the basher hobby. If your new to the hobby subscribe and learn about the RC Hobby here. 🤙🏼☢️

    • @RadioactiveRC
      @RadioactiveRC  2 роки тому

      I can absolutely help with that! Loose for fun and Tight for race. It sounds like you want your RC set up loose for fun. When you’re running loose you want the rear of the RC to be able to kick out and oversteer. For that I would use 30k/30k on dirt or 50k/50k on grass and concrete. The negative to this is the RC tends to roll easier in a turn.
      When you’re running tight for racing you want the tires to stick to the surface through the turn. For that I use 30k front 7k in back. This allows for the rear tires to provide power through the turn less aggressively. The front tires pull more keeping you straight. Less power but more control. The first way is more power less control. Hope this helps! 🤙🏼☢️
