Hey buddy , got to say sure does seem an awesome truck to be fair, the price point is amazing . Man I do wish this truck was available here in the Uk 🇬🇧. These would sell hand over fist . 👊 s Stay awesome buddy Chris 🤙🚀🚀👍
Good review, I love my Redcat so no surprise you liked this budget Redcat. I was impressed by the performance of it. The durability seems good and roof rails at that price Nice.
hopefully they sell the crap out of them and can afford to do some licensed bodies The deal with red cat is simple it's $250 less than the max and you get the performance of the max and then some cases more performance but the durability is gonna be like 1/4 of the maxx. I speak from experience having all mentioned trucks, except obviously this one
@NiklasAdv You are not missing anyrhing. The Maxx is the only Traxxas that I have liked but every other one that I wasted tons of money on and sold were horrible. The Maxx/slash being a prime example of an awful rc at any price let alonw $700.
@scannon3213 lol I know the feeling. They put together something really nice here at an amazing price so far I am very happy with it. Check out my MJX vids lots of RC Guy Garage in the comments lol
This is exactly my WOV Racing Tyrants!!! Body mount and body are about the only difference. Nice cause my chassis cracks under motor on jumps. Hopefully the redcat chassis flexes a bit more !😁🤙🏼
you're great like the videos Red cats always been great for great value underneath an extreme fugliness on top I've had the kaiju fusion ascent marksman and wendi, all great trucks but the only legitimately good looking ones are the marksman and the Wendigo and the marksman isn't for everybody either but literally twice the value that you get out of other brands , fixing them is never fun but it is always doable and always seem to break where other trucks don't they have really great rigs overall 6s kaiju Which had a non-RC related unfortunate end is a crushing truck for 450 Nails triple bf no problem, I know it's an older truck but you should order one and review it you will absolutely love it overall the red cat brand has achieved the impossible they had the worst reputation imaginable for the longest time and they've turned that around 180 and they're a good brand not the best brand somewhere around associated but a player and they're not going anywhere, forces market leaders like Traxxas to keep innovating. it's always the same cycle every 10 years Traxxas reinvents a category and then everybody copies them for another 10 years. You can't go wrong with any true hobby grade if I'm honest, red cat is finally there
thank you very much I saw a a few videos where the redcats were breaking and it was all the same no matter who did the review, so far this is looking good I have high hopes for it
It has some weight to it but I dont feel like its too bad for its size. I would like to see more flex in it I guess time will tell how good it will hold up but so far I like what I see.
Hahaha.. yeah buddy my valkyrie mt.. came yesterday.. I posted a short this morning.. but I think we re all gonna jump on that 4s $299 train.. lol.. nice vid brother!
Thank you very much and yeah at this price its going to be a hot seller its hard to touch 4s brushless at this price I wouldnt be surprised to see a price hike I think demand is going to be high
BINDING a Dx5c and avc receiver makes a huge difference in this truck, well the MT vwrsion. It now drives straight as an arrow plus very easy to comtrol. The Avc Sport receiver would ne best I think. I have the 62000at in there but its a tight fit and I had to mount it flat. Tbe Sport ine might mount like the stock one which gives more space.
@@rcguygarage just one ATM. But I watch both you and the L2theW channels and like to see your rc ground vehicle reviews. I only did a few videos on rc vehicle's but I enjoy flying more.Less mud and sand to clean up 👆
@@tughillrc6327 funny that you talk about flying guy cuz that is how I got into the actual hobby along with ground. But I think God I can't remember if I had planes first or if it was rc10. I think it was planes talking hobby grade and I was just looking at my UMX e-flight timber realizing that all I need is foam glue to throw the tail back on 🤣😂
I have a Redcat Kaiju and Redcat Machete 6s… they’re great in value… and comparable to traxxas in some cases. My biggest gripe I saw in this vid is the use of Ec5 plugs in a Xt90… did you not learn about it from rc guy garage?!
@Nlangkirby135 the person that is still running an adapter? I dont need to learn from him you know what gripes me when people are in a big hurry to make a comment and dont take 2 seconds to see if there are other videos to see if a new connector was soldered on just make assumptions!!
The Kraton is a totally different car and price point. This is fast very fast and it seems well made I am not sure if this plastic will hold up to people wanting big air. I think on 3s its a great entry level rc that should hold up. The Kraton is more robust with the chassis and parts the power is strong and it can put it down better. It depends on your budget and what you are looking for its always more money to go up in power. The Kraton is the better choice for hard bashing but this Recat is not bad especially at the price its hard to beat but I would say to compare the 2 would be an unfair competition the 4s Kraton is a better comparison.
@@L2theWcarscoffeelife that's one I noticed what is nice about the arrma granite 3s it has a power down button on the controller believe it goes from 100 to 70 to 50 which is nice for newbies just getting into RC cars
It is a nice feature for those needing it you can look up the minimal battery and run a smaller pack as well that will reduce power granted not as nice as the switch but its an option
Holy crap that steering is touchy! But what a rocket!!
Yup it is very sensitive and yeah its damn fast
Hey buddy , got to say sure does seem an awesome truck to be fair, the price point is amazing .
Man I do wish this truck was available here in the Uk 🇬🇧.
These would sell hand over fist . 👊 s
Stay awesome buddy
Chris 🤙🚀🚀👍
Yes it is hard to beat at this price it is a bargain for sure I am very happy with it maybe they will land in the UK before long
Awesome you got one! Your gonna need another shed for all these new cars 🤣
lol I know I just re did the whole thing too and I already need more mounts to hold cars
Good review, I love my Redcat so no surprise you liked this budget Redcat. I was impressed by the performance of it. The durability seems good and roof rails at that price Nice.
Hi
hello my friend
Thank you very much I didnt know you had a redcat too. So far its a solid car I like it
We should be receiving the MT version later today. $250 less than the Traxxas Maxx. Plus about 8-10 mph faster.
I have to say I am impressed with this one like you said half the price the competition is picking up
Crazy that these two cars will even exist at the same time, and people will still buy the maxx at msrp
Traxxas pricing is a joke for what you get, have not bought a traxxas in years
hopefully they sell the crap out of them and can afford to do some licensed bodies

Ahh Rc garage my other favorite, I love Redcat affordable and strong stuff still running my Kaiju ,this one is so tempting. Not wife approved lol 😂

Everyone got the truck version. So it will be good to see how this performs to. 👍
Thats what I am thinking looks like they sent the truck to all the reviewers hopefully this will help out for those that want to see the truggy run
Great video👍🏻
Thank you very much

you're great like the videos
Red cats always been great for great value underneath an extreme fugliness on top
I've had the kaiju fusion ascent marksman and wendi, all great trucks but the only legitimately good looking ones are the marksman and the Wendigo and the marksman isn't for everybody either
but literally twice the value that you get out of other brands , fixing them is never fun but it is always doable and always seem to break where other trucks don't they have really great rigs overall
6s kaiju Which had a non-RC related unfortunate end is a crushing truck for 450
Nails triple bf no problem, I know it's an older truck but you should order one and review it you will absolutely love it
overall the red cat brand has achieved the impossible they had the worst reputation imaginable for the longest time and they've turned that around 180 and they're a good brand not the best brand somewhere around associated but a player and they're not going anywhere, forces market leaders like Traxxas to keep innovating. it's always the same cycle every 10 years Traxxas reinvents a category and then everybody copies them for another 10 years.

thank you very much I saw a a few videos where the redcats were breaking and it was all the same no matter who did the review, so far this is looking good I have high hopes for it
Curious to know your thoughts on the overall weight of the RC combined with that ever so familiar harsh ZERO flex plastic? 🤔
It has some weight to it but I dont feel like its too bad for its size. I would like to see more flex in it I guess time will tell how good it will hold up but so far I like what I see.
17:44 XT60 ???? 🤣😂 In the moment😜 brain fart
too many dang connectors lol I cant keep track of the XT stuff because I dont use it lol time to fire my editor 😁

Now I want to know with such a short rip why or what are YOU, MOST impressed with?
@@rcguygarage The fact is was still running and nothing broke? I am sure your rock pit behind you house would be the acid test bro.
@@tughillrc6327 do you have either of the 4 variants? It's always good to hear opinions👍💯

For the price point you get a nice power system 4s brushless for 299 its a good deal for Hobby wing parts and its fast!!

One idiots video means nothing. Been using them together since they both existed together on earth. Never a heat issue. Never any issue whatsoever.
16:41 you even KNOW it's not correct XT90/EC5 🤣😂🤣😂
If it fits it ships 🤣🤣 Gotta do what ya gotta do lol
@@L2theWcarscoffeelife chop that damn connector off and put on the right one guy do us a video or even go live and do a live soldering job 😜👍💯
Not bad, huh? For $300… I’m going to order the truck although that truggy looks fun too. Idk… I’m going to order one of them
@RC-Closer1313 order both lol 😁 I need an affiliate link lol
Seen videos of the truck and takes a bigger beating than the max plus at this price and what you get is far better than anything traxxas has!
Well, I threw around a big UA-cam buddy of mine at Redcat and got both of them with 4-batteries for $428.33 with tax and free shipping 🤙🏻
Thanks!
Thank you very much
How’s the radio?
@RC-Closer1313 its not bad it feels takes forever to set the end points one click at a time
How you think it's going to compare to arrma kraton exb?
The Kraton is a totally different car and price point. This is fast very fast and it seems well made I am not sure if this plastic will hold up to people wanting big air. I think on 3s its a great entry level rc that should hold up. The Kraton is more robust with the chassis and parts the power is strong and it can put it down better.

Can it jump the gorge??
@@RC-Closer1313 ehhh I dont think so
Nice
Dose the reciciever have a power down button so it's easier for my 4 year to drive it after I have fun with it.
There is no setting to reduce the power
@@L2theWcarscoffeelife that's one I noticed what is nice about the arrma granite 3s it has a power down button on the controller believe it goes from 100 to 70 to 50 which is nice for newbies just getting into RC cars
