I was a Redcat skeptic too. Took a chance last fall and picked up the now discontinued MT10e for my son who needed a proper 1/10 3s truck. Was so impressed with the MT10e I grabbed the Kaiju EXT during their Christmas sale. If you don’t need to send them 40ft in the air, they’re good solid trucks and a ton of value for the money.
I just found your channel with this video. I like how you cut through the bs and get right to it, didn’t talk about the manual for 15 minutes, and most importantly, you have that truck the beans! Full send! That’s awesome man. New sub!! 👍🏻
@therealcletusrc Thank you so much, man!! I have ADHD so I get bored easily when I watch long drawn-out content, lol. So I try and remember not to do that in mine. I'm constantly trying to do better with each video. I'm starting to come out of my shell a little bit.
@@HumlsHobbies might go vigilante depending on what my check looks like lol gotta get em both besides anytime something breaks on my MT's i literally gotta buy Redcat parts anyways
@Rc-Krazy Awesome, man!! I appreciate it!! I've had two Traxxas Maxx trucks. They are great trucks, but the price is to steep, in my opinion. The redcat takes just as much of a beating as they did for almost half the price!
I've had my mt since the day they were released. I replaced the shocks with the updated set they auto sent me. Fast and tough it's a great entry level rig
@chriskryder2994 they are tough as nails. I haven't replaced the shocks yet, and the only thing I've broken is a battery strap. It's definitely a great rig!
Get your self a Dusty Rc Cover to keep that dirt out! FYI Rlaarlo Omni Terminator is 250 and just as quick but metal shocks, metal chassis and metal shock uprights.
Got mine today 😂😂😂I have a few red cat the progression from red cat have always follow one path up up and away😂good price good RC easy to mod some other brand should follow the example ,i am not surprise by the quality standard of redcat
@rccargrandpalanglois Congrats on your new truck, man! You're gonna love it! I'm looking forward to more redcat purchasing in the future! They proved there self with this one!
Legendary thunder 1/10 scale. I know it's probably not the quality of the red cat for people getting into the hobby. You can get it for $110 brushless. But enough about that I really want this red cat and that price point is amazing.
I have a blackout, got it brushed, just upgraded the motor, and esc to brushless the whole drive train in it is bulletproof. i have plenty of arrmas an a couple traxxas' and its the only one i have yet to blow a diff on yet. Also the only one i dont have to wrench on when im done. I've even ran 4s on it a couple of times.
Bro, you're so close to 1K!! Lemme push you out to my massive following, LOL. This truck seems almost too good to be true! Redcat is really making strides in bashers and crawlers.
RedCat passes on there savings, a lot of companies have big mark ups for example- if a RC cost $250 to make …. Hmmmm let’s sell it for $599- if it’s a good product, you really don’t need to do that! Just my 2 cents😉👍🏽💯
It was hard to see on the video. But keep in mind if the truck is rolling backwards you will have a delay as its not sensored. Love the opening shot with the water! Bump up the ride height a little in the front and take a few turns out of the rear. It will help most conditions.
I never even thought about the fact that its not sensored! Just shows I still have alot to learn! Thanks for the tips and checking out the video! I will for sure be adjusting the shocks. This thing is wild lol!
That delay is the low kv. Put it on 6s it will stop doing that. Lol. I just deal with it. I got mine 2days ago. It’s my first redcat, and I absolutely love mine. Just need to do something about those front shocks. Also if u put a little bit bigger tires on there it does real well.
@@Tattoosandtoys My first Redcat as well! I think we picked a good one to start with! I kind of want to put some JConcepts Magma wheels and tires on it! I think they would look cool! However they are pricey 😆
Redcat was never on my radar until this year. They have really been stepping up their game from crawlers to bashers. Awesome job on the review btw.
I agree! I want a vigilante now lol!
Thanks for the props and thanks for watching!!
@@HumlsHobbies If that is the blue 8S one so do I lol.
@@Doug_Morgan yep that's the one! Wish it also had a red body though 😆

Like 6- 10ft mostly .

love your enthusiasm brotha. This will go nice with my MT10 my MT8 and the Ol XMAXXX. SUBSCRIBED!

Redcat is improving! Competition is Great for the hobby!
Agreed! Hopefully the price and quality of this truck shows the other companys they should lower some of there costs. Doubt it though lol!
Totally Awesome! Loved watchin' her make those waves!!
@user-ri4hq3nf6m she is alot of fun!
Redcat has come a long way.
They needed to....😂
I agree!

@@mattster197 The terminator is definitely on my list!! I love the Chassis on it! Rlaarlo has stepped up their game!
I would have taken that deal and day. Congratulations on the awesome find.

Yeah the Redcat is awesome at this insane price!! I will have to look into the Legendary Thunder truck!
Nice vid! Subbed!

Hell yeah brother! Rip it up!
Great video! Awesome truck ordered one 2 days ago can't wait till it gets here I'm sure gonna be a great basher like my vigilante!!
This truck makes me want a Vigilante to go with my xmaxx LOL! Any excuse to buy another RC is good for me!

Looks like a winner . Good power , stays down . Maybe some better shocks down the road ?
Yeah I will for sure be upgrading those! Im going to adjust the front ones before I run it again.
Redcat FTW

No it’s not water proof!!!!!! Still best deal out there for $300.

Backflip lp s ?
@@Hungrybird474 probably which direction I’m going.
Power looks identical to my brushless Traxxas E-Revo which is also $299
@danielchapter70128 the 1/16 erevo? I've had my eye on one of them!
can you adjust the punch on this??...this is such a better value versus a traxxas mini revo brushless for the same price!!! nothing short of amazing
It really is an awesome value! Yes you can adjust the punch! Even more reason to like it lol!
Awesome
@johnsorensen5758 Thanks man! 😊
Where can you get parts for that? Please I want one but can't find any parts for it. Any help would be good.
@StevenFox-r9n Sorry for the late reply. Just seen this comment. They have all the factory parts listed on Redcats website.
Redcat was never up to par... until this year IMO.
@@anthonylim5120 I agree! I think they are on a mission to repair their reputation! I hope they keep up the good work!
@@HumlsHobbies and their price lol
It's a great value for $300 for a 4s truck indeed d. Nice looking truck too. It's got lots of speed right out of the box 👍
Yeah its a speed demon on 4s. I was not expecting that right out of the box lol! They did good on this one!
And it looks better than traxxas cartoon character looking trucks traxxas trucks are so ugly now 😂
@ISIAH_STL Yeah, sometimes less is more! I love this old square body!
