For $100 I was afraid this was gonna be a RC4wd cheap truck. But it turns out (as you pointed out better than everyone else) that it has everything I need. I still have their old Sumo 4x4x4 from way back.
Red cat nailed it..and the price just wow..Red cat for the win...
Hate watching this show damn it. Now I have to buy one of these too.
Sorry lol, you won’t be disappointed.
I have the older redcat gen8 V2 and I think it’s one of the best rc’s for the money
Just ordered 1 with your affiliate link. You by far have the absolute best reviews of RC’s. The inside look at the gears and stuff is the best. Thanks!
3rd review I’ve watched on this but also the best one.
This sure looks like a real winner to me at this price point! I’ll definitely have to get one!
Great overview & review Greg!👍😊
Thanks! I’m planning to buy another one, they nailed this release.
Absolutely best RC channel. No Corny gimmicks. Straight to the point absolutely love it 5 out of 5
What a nice little truck! Definately adding this one to my stable!! Thanx for a Great review!
Redcat nailed it.
Watch capecrawlers he put it on a four corner scale and vertical and sidehill rollover test
I mean for the $100 price tag it is hard to fault it for much. I am really happy that it is not another whiny ESC and weak motor combo seen in a lot of budget friendly rigs!
Are those new transitions between segments of your video? I don't think I've seen them before on your videos. They work well! And yes, this is quite the little crawler!
Unbeatable price and looks pretty good. Personally, more excited about this than some of the other mini crawlers lately!
Wow. Great for the price. Getting 2 for my nephews. Thanks!
They’ll love them. Enjoy!
I just bought one! I'm looking forward to getting it. Thanks for the great review 😊
Enjoy!
I really like the chassis and agree that it’s really clean. My only gripe, and this can apply to rc crawlers in general, is, why can’t we get more modern looking bodies? Like, maybe in the style of the new Silverados or Raptors, heck maybe even the baby raptors (Ranger). I get that it’s Redcat and they usually don’t get the license of actual trucks. I’m just saying, I’d really like to see more modern truck bodies on these newer crawlers coming out.
Love it. GREAT review!! ❤
That looks great, especially for the price. We need Redcat to come to the UK!
Finally a nice rig I can afford!
I have always wanted to get my hands on a Redcat truck,they have always seemed to be good quality models.
this will be my next RC for sure at that price! Can't be beat
Definitely on list for sure.
Redcat really stepped up there game nice little truck 👌
looks pretty darn good, great video
I am now so torn 50/50i was gonna get the T Hunter Evo and throw some better wheels/tyres/shocks at it but i can have this redcat for same price as Evo
I will definitely be adding one to my collection. I had the 1/10 model, but I sold it because I don't have many places to drive it , but the 1/18 will be perfect for my crawler course.
I would like to get one. Good job Redcat!
Have mine coming shortly. Ordered it a few hours ago...should be a winner.
Enjoy!
🎉🎉 Definitely adding one to my garage ASAP. Definitely adding a 1/10 version as well. Then get the New LC80 Land Cruiser from FMS.
Dang it! Your review just made me order one. It should be a good stable-mate to my SCX24 and my TRX4m. My old lady ain't gonna be too happy🤣🤣🤣
Enjoy! The rig… not the getting yelled at part. 😆
Hey. there. Great video, thanks. How do you think it compares to the Evo Pro?
I do like they already have some hop up parts available at launch. Redcat is really working on bringing out some solid rigs.
Super dope!!
Redcat always impresses me
Just caught this on sbg’s UA-cam then found yours lol. Thing is awesome! Cool they came out with tone of aftermarket! Great vid as always! Definitely getting one!👍🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸 oh ya not a fan of the fender flairs but that’s easy fix!
I'll take two..right on redcat
Are the wheels beadlock or glued on?
How do you think the Spektrum Firma would do in this?
Good review are there any mods/upgrades available yet?
Yup, I show some of the option parts towards the end of the feature discussion.
redcat and element really be pushing the hobby
Yep, I’m grabbing one to match my 1/10 version 👍🏾💯
I’m sure a bunch of people will do that. Enjoy!
That's a lot of RC for $100 indeed 👍
It's a good thing I didn't purchase a trx4m high trail not too long ago because it was a little bit pricey. For $99 (for now) is one hell of a deal so I'm definitely getting this one 😎
Update: They're out of stock when I got off work. How unfortunate 😂
Good deal, I grabbed one. Perfect for the kids.
Even the big kids. lol Enjoy!
Be refreshing to actually see an unbiased review,, just seams like everyone is reading from a salesmans script,,
Yup
Wow go redcat
HI,
My name is Vince
I have a question:
I would like to order an inexpensive TX and RX for my future Kyosho
Mini-x MR04 EVO 2! Can I use the Kyosho KT531P ? Do you ( or somebody) have a tip for an affordable TX and RX?
e.g
Vince di Fabrizio
Affordable thanks #RedcatRacing
Mines pretty tough, but I did manage to break a link. Good excuse for aluminum ones. Lol
RC RC RC
Even at $119 you cant beat it!
True
It's very, very complicated to have this brand in Europe, even 1/10 is hard to get!
I bought a Traxxas TRX4M yesterday but no regrets. They are not sold in Europe.
A no brainer and would buy one for sure to add to my collection. Nice to join my imported and therefore way too expensive 1/10 Ascent.
Turning out to be not as good as hyped in reviews, making it even more expensive 😅
However I don’t live in the states. Meaning a lot of stuff can’t be bought over here.
And if s, prizes generally are about + 33% higher. Importing this one would make it more then double of introduction price…. 😢
I just realized what you did there with the title.
😄
Thats a much better truck than that element 12 scale for performance vs money
After buying upgrades you may as well get the FMS, which is what I'm doing but the limited edition fcx18.
Unless you like to build! Not everyone wants to buy something “bought not built”!😂
Unless a person is not buying the upgrades 🤷
@@INSIDIOUS-ONE so buy a kit or actually make your own. People are clamoring about the price point, which is only for a limited time, when you can spend a little more and get better bang for buck. This redcat isn't much different than a Walmart toy.
@@adrianharrison5208 i mean if you're into that I guess, but we all know, unless you're a little kid, you're throwing money at this thing.
@@dgs.creates not sure what you mean to be honest
Seems more stable and capable than the traxxas trx4m
Ordered the blue. I'm going to keep it stock for a while. The hop ups are overpriced. Probably where they expect to get their roi. $70 for inner and outer front portal brass covers 😂 almost the price of the truck.
Not available in Europe, and on the website it's written an estimate of 35€ of shipping tax :(
Great reviews as usual thanks
They charge 78$ US for shipping in Canada + 32$ tax
@@samintrepid I just look out of curiosity and they charge 40$ for shipping in Europe + 35$ of taxes, how they can charge you this much while crossing the ocean is cheaper 😮 so it's a 180$ truck, that's sad
And when you get it upgraded your at 250 lol
Loud esc yikes
1/18 scale? looks like 1/24 😅
Unfortunately I find all Redcat crawlers to be ugly as sin. Won't buy them.
Not impressed with redcats customer service. They had a light set listed incorrectly on there website and of course it did not fit. They would not pay to ship it back. So over 5.00 those clowns lost a good customer. I had already bought two lowriders previously. For me its principle not the money part. Plus as a business owner I can't fathom being that dumb to lose a customer over 5.00 when it was there mistake. So no more redcats for me. FMS baby. They have amazing customer service.
Good customers dont complain about leds. Redcat might not notice you leavw. But hey if you feel like u won
@@gcarterer it was a complete light kit. Not cheap my boy
