Redcat always has you covered when it comes to the right RC vehicle for the right job and to handle all of those needs is the new Redcat Kaiju. The Redcat KAIJU 1:8 Scale MT Brushless 6S Ready Monster Truck is built to handle big air jumps. It has long-travel suspension, huge aluminum shocks on each corner, captured rod ends, and aluminum hinge pin support plates. Everything you need for performance and durability! In the power department, the Kaiju has been outfitted with a Hobbywing 2100kv 4-ple motor and a 150A 3S-6S capable ESC. Want to run 4S or single or double packs? The battery mounting system can handle the most popular LiPo battery configurations. But wait, there’s more! To handle the gnarliest terrain, the Kaiju features a high ground clearance chassis to get over the rough and large lug tires to bite into dirt and roost it into the air. This RC Truck is truely action-packed! Topping off the Kaiju is a stunning bright blue body, decaled from the factory, and for that extra styling factor, LED lights to come installed in the front and rear of this beast.

This a hell of an advertisement!
Redcat has come SUCH a long way. My first rc was a Redcat Landslide, nitro. I got literally zero miles out of it because it fell apart everytime I glanced at it. Since then the Redcat durability has increased 100 fold and I can vouch for it. I'm buying this.
/bow "mahalo"
for me the best idea from redcat was to rebrand the team magic e6 hx :) bad idea was that crap big 8s mt , hope this one last better
@@MRCG68 what 8s MT?
Redcat is at the top of the game again
...several years later, I'm still buying parts for my Kaiju with a grin on my face. I've bought nearly every part at least once, and I just keep bashing. She's fun, she's squirrely, she's a rocket. Best basher RC I own, bar none. Thanks for a great rig!
She's an outstanding vehicle, a TRUE monster truck that keeps on bashing, no matter what!! Going on six months, a proud Kaiju owner!!!👍✔
Right on!
SOLD!!! Great job redcat. I knew you guys had something nice coming! 60 likes, 0 dislikes 👌👍👍
Chris Watson True!! This looks dope. Price is reasonable too.
You guys are deff giving traxxas run of there money amazing job!
awesome truck,great video
Oho DAMN !!!!! Looks Amazing Redcat 🙌🙌🙌🙌 I think it’s gonna go down as a Legendary platform!!! I called it 4 years ago Redcat is on the prowl 🐅
Looks Good. I like most of the design choices. Should be an excellent value 6S brushless monster strunt truck.
Redcat I am in👍👍 it will look great next to the trmt8e😁 great narrating r.c driver 😉
I’ve been waiting for this video I can’t wait for this . I got two ordered
One killer looking monster truck red cat well done👍
I'm ready!!!
Send one my way to test!!
T-Maxx Tony is here and says he wants this one. Gonna do a tug of war with the tmaxx, what do you say redcat?
hybrid32494 seems like more of a Maxx challenger
Looks like a solid platform. Great job Redcat 👍👍
Sweet. I like the look for sure. Those tires are awesome looking. Nice rig for sure! 🤘👊
I think redcat needs a new huge rc truck! Either rebuild the Rampage into a brushless truck with center diff and transmission assembly on 8s, or build a giant version of the kaiju.... Like a Kaiju-XL?..? Just a thought. The kauji is on the toughest little trucks I've ever ran and is totally awesome for the price! Way out of its league and totally worth every penny!
Love the truck great job Redcat!!!
Looks so great! Wondering if you guys do sponsorships for RC TH-camrs. I’d like to take this thing and make it even more beast, and have been known to always test the limits.
So we do not yet have a sponsorship program in place yet. That is something that might change in the future but sadly not yet there.
@@RedcatracingAZ All good brotha! I appreciate the reply! I'll be on the lookout for them to hit my LHS.
One of my very favorites in my collection for sure!
This truck looks pretty slick... I almost think the body would work on a crawler. Just like that era pick up.
Good job Redcat 👍
Looks cool. Need a video of just running with mixed surfaces would be great to see.
Nice! Ordered 😁!
Of course you did!! 👌
Imagine size jay tee house rc paradise 🚗🤔
We know you would
JayTee RC quit acting like you have to pay for this stuff.
@@abeber87 you don't know what it talking about..i did pay for one....check ur facts 1st before jumping to conclusions🙄. Not everyone gets stuff for free and if we did it should not matter as we work hard to bring good videos and content to the world.
Truck looks like a Beast💪. Definitely need this one ...6s
Hey that's Craig from RC driver. Hehe
Sweet! Can I test one for you! On my list to get one for sure! Keep up the great work!
Well done it looks like a well rounded Monster truck, I cant wait to try it out and review.
👍👌
It's a Helion Avenge upgraded to handle 6s and a bit longer
Its made from Team Associated warehouse and is a big Brother to the Rival MT10
@@NPCRC Lol.. The T.A "warehouse".. It's a re-brand..The Rival is a re-branded Helion Avenge 10MT..Look it up man.
@@philthyco1 Ok man.. so let me break this down for you.. there are warehouses that make RC trucks and sell them to different redistributors... the Helion IS a clone of the Rival MT... but the Kaiju is LARGER then both of those models. Look at the width around the receiver box and the space behind the transmission box.. it is LARGER.. at this point, there is no other truck using this exact design that I have been made aware of or found that come from that factory. If you are still not convinced... look at the WB and size differences between the Rival/Helion and the Kaiju... Kaiju / Rival MT10
Wheel base- 309mm (12.16") / 285mm (11.22")
Length - 528mm (20.79") / 507mm (19.96")
Width - 410mm (16.14") / 325mm (12.80")
@@NPCRC Read what I said in my first comment..I said it's a longer and beefed up version of the Helion Avenge and no, I'm sorry but the Rival MT10 or The Helion Avenge are neither clones of each other..They are just Re-branded version of the same thing with different bodies and tires..Helion went out of biz and now the rights for the Avenge were sold to T.A from the OEM factory VKAR..Helion was selling the Avenge years ago but Traxxas sued them and they went under..So yea..Let me break it down for you,Bud! Lol..Have a good one!
To be honest with you, I actually thought I was replying to a follow-up message to somebody else... LOL I do apologize because I see that you did know that it was longer and looser saying it was basically the same truck but I was also thinking I was replying to somebody that was talking about it breaking upon Landing or some crap like that because it came from the same Factory as the vkar Bison which all Team Associated stuff does as well. It was not that one and people are trying to say it's based on that truck. I've been replying back and forth with a bunch of people about this truck so I was combining conversations. I do apologize as I may have responded with added info that you didn't need. LOL
Kaiju, reminds me of a movie...
OR several!
Dam yall stepped it up tho mad props.
Looks pretty rad🤙
Looks great!
Good going with the plastic chassis. Now if only arrma would get that memo lol. Yes I know their 3s line has plastic chassis.
Bc plastic for newbies or ppl that really have no experience with jumping or racing , so with today's power you should know how land before jumping far sending or buy rig that's plastic but it's not the same trust me
I do think arrma should blow up the granite to 7th scale with blx 185 system for 450 to put traxxas in there place haha
@@paulclancy2404 Plastic is superior for bashing. Look at all the braces on the kraton 8s lmao they knew that heavy thing with a cheap aluminum chassis would bend. And what do ya know? Turns out to be a pretty big problem.
@@paulclancy2404 And nobodys talking about racing on a redcat video lmaoo stahhhp
Looks amazing! I've been keeping my eye on the market for a new go-to basher. I've had a brushless Stampede 4x4 for the longest time but I wanna go a bit bigger without going too big or too pricey for something I know I'm gonna be pushing its breaking points.
That looks AWESOME!
I might be a future customer for this product.
Just ordered my Kaiju!
Waiting for mine to come !!
Cant wait for it to hit the UK 🤙🤙
Look realy strong !!! I follow this ...
I can’t wait to get this on my channel go redcat
Its got hinge pin lock screws. Heck yea thats my huge problem. My all my rcs. Game changer yall. Y'all realt stepped it up with this 1
I see this just after I ordered my Landslide, looks great ,still stocked for my Landslide !
Adam Benson dude to be 100% cancel the landslide it’s a piece of crap. Steering horn breaks within 1-2 rides. Doesn’t handle great. I returned mine last week. Learn from my mistake this looks way better or get a shredder I love my shredder.
@Adam Benson - maybe get both!? Great choice regardless.
@Jonathan Unger - Sorry to hear you had some issues right away. The Landslide however; is normally a beast of a vehicle. Sadly you might have had an issue but not every model out there is going to break something in "1-2 rides". We have put that model to the test and can assure you they normally last a lot longer then that. Sometimes with RC cars "things just happen" and parts can break. But not always at the same time or doing the same thing. Case in point: facebook.com/RedcatRacing/videos/10156142105754684/
Redcat Racing respectfully it is widely known the servo horn is faulty other TH-cam videos share the same thing that happened to me that was never bashed/ jumped. For an extra $100 I would whole heartedly gamble on the kaiju than the landslide. I wanted to love it as much as I do my shredder but was super disappointed
@@RedcatracingAZ I might have to pick up both :) looking forward to my Landslide right for now,this will be my second Redcat,I also have a Piranah which is a nice little buggy.
@@JmanZ71 I beat the living shiz outta my Landslide - maybe you had an issue but I don't ever see much about it. Not to mention the horn can easily be upgraded to aluminum - and even if it does fail - they are like $5 hahaha I have launched mine off trees, speed bumps, kicker ramps, and curbs and never had an issue.
nice!
Looks promising!
The voice sound familiar. Any one think the same?
Brandon Vail RC Driver?!? I’m waiting for his review
My thought also.
Can't wait to get my hands on one of these!
So far I like it. If the price is right I might think of buying it.
Looks great! This totally sounds like RCDriver_Online doing the narration here... could it be??
Got to be RC driver. I said the same thing 🤣
Interesting
Redcat Racing is that a plastic spur gear? I need to know before I make this purchase if it's plastic it would just be chewed up on 6s.
Plastic spur - but pay no mind to that - the thing handles like a champ even on 6s as designed.
plastic spur gears remain standard mostly because the rest of the gears remain metal... this is so you end up with on shredded spur gear instead of a completely shot drive train...the difference is 100s of dollars
Now they need to make it the size of an Xmaxx. I know that they tried before. But they need to try again. My Kaiju has been very durable after a few tweaks and upgrades
Greg from RC Driver is that you???
Was this filmed in Afghanistan?
Question does this truck come with a deans adapter for two batteries like the landslide or only a single plug ?
It is set up for 2 batteries but has a "plug" connector to run a single 6s or 4s if desired.
I'm sold!
Bring back the monsoon xtr please. Lol
Nitro? ... meh - Nitro is a "dying breed" these days
Why bring back a car that isn't going to sell very well anymore?
hop it would hold better than the catastrophique 8s mt you try to sale to us
At 2:37. That screw on top of the axal carrier. Is that what the steering pivots on? Looks weak.
If you are talking about the one on top of the C-hub that goes down into the steering knuckle - then yes. At that time stamp you see the steering knuckle, steering link, and the C-hub. As well as the wheel hex and axle end. The screw on the time stamp you mentioned is where the knuckle pivots in the hub carrier. The screw on the right/center side of the screen that goes through the arm of the knuckle down through a turnbuckle then back into the bottom of the knuckle arm is where the steering link connects to. Technically both positions "pivot" when the vehicle is being "turned" - thus "steering" - in either direction. However; there is nothing in that set up that is "weak" for sure. The wall thickness of the plastic on all these components is fully capable of handling the bashing these things put up with.
@@RedcatracingAZ thank you. Good luck with this truck.
Was that a plastic motor pinion gear I saw? Or was It hardened steel?
Psycho Somatic The pinion is steel.
@@RedcatracingAZ cool beans!!
It looks far better then x Marks spot.
I'd like to get it but is there anyway that I could get the parts diagram?
The manual is available online which has those.
dealer.redcatracing.com//manuals/KAIJU_MANUAL.pdf
Can you run just a single 2s battery
The ESC could probably operate on 2s but the drive train will be severely sluggish. 3s is probably a better choice.
this is clearlt vkar stuff , but if it's beefed good up , i will be happy :)
I'm wondering about this frame.. I hope dont flex or break. Like some folks had issues with other trucks redcats made. Like landslide and torment 1/8 scale trucks. Only one I had was redcats earthquake 8e and was ok. But had issues with it either electronics/ reciever.. it all of sudden stop working. So I gave it away to someone. Got exceed madbeast brushless truck now. Wish had money buy another one or redcats gave one away like this truck. Lol! But frame I'd be mostly concerned about and if breaks between cold weather or flex jumping it and wreck other issues between bashing. Oh well !!
Well plastic tends to deal with bashing a little better than aluminum. And the Landslide and Earthquake (while they are both great vehicles) have aluminum chassis. Once aluminum bends - it is hard to get it back to normal. Plastic chassis tend to "flex" a lot better on "basher" models. And as far as cold weather, crashes, and jumps - well - sometimes we get lucky and we think something should have broken and it didn't. Other times a simple summersault snaps off a control arm - barely doing 10 MPH. Just the way the hobby goes sometimes.
Why the name. Killer vid looks like a beast.
They named it after the popular movie monsters like pacific rim, dogzilla etc
Kaiju is a Japanese word meaning "strange creature". In English, it has come to mean "monster" or "giant monster" - thus a perfect name for a Monster Truck!
@@RedcatracingAZ oh cool. You guys nailed it with this 1.
It's the same chassis as the bisons. This chassis is going to explode on impact with 6s power.
it is not the same chassis as the Bison.. a quick search of the Vkar Bison and looking closely at the top and bottom of that chassis will show you that it is not the same. Then look at the Rival MT10 and that is the truck this is designed after but larger....
No Problems Computer & Hobby oh damn your right ! I thought it looked familiar. This is much better deal than the 3s rival
Damn, tires on that makes me want to buy one.
👍 👍😊👍👍👍👍
Is it 2wd?
I thought I saw 4 dog bones but I also thought I saw it only spinning the back wheels
4x4
NO - it is a 4x4 - 98% of our models are. It has open diffs - so you may see a differentiation of power from time to time.
good 1st truck for people getting into the hobby.... il stick to tekno and mugen kits
RC driver doing the voice-over 🤔
Yup - old new news - been that way for months now.
@@w2bsupermangaming-sir_namr895 months of him doing Redcat stuff? Had no idea I don't drive Redcat 🤪
Awesome RC for an incredible price. Just please. Stop using deans connectors.
See what arrma started. now all 1/6-1/7 scale trucks will be called 1/5
A plastic tub?? really redcat?? Come on guys we don't need no more traxxas??
Better than aluminum by far for bashing. Sadly EVERYONE uses plastic for the most part. So unless they are going to make a carbon fiber chassis they have no other option.
The Kaiju is 100x better than this makes it look. Where are the backflips and big air in this comercial? My vids make it look more exciting and I'm just dinking around. This is a phenomenal machine and it sounds like you are selling a toaster or something. Get excited!!!!!
I think Redcat should put their money where their mouth is and send this truck out right away to Kevin Talbot for proper testing or is Redcat just a scary-cat. Like if you agree👍👍👍
Just cuz the guys full of BS money and gives 2 shiz about breaking it because he can pretty much buy anything he wants - doesn't exactly make him the proper test subject haha
@@w2bsupermangaming-sir_namr895 it's not just the fact that he breaks everything , it's more about what it takes to break it and maybe that is not what you want to know but i would prefer to know at what point does it break and then i know for sure how hard i can push my rc's.
@@hellorc4354 Ohhh - I would test it till it broke too! LOL no need to give the guy who can buy a few thousand of them a free one lol
Send it to Kevin Redcat he's totally right RC on my brothers
@@w2bsupermangaming-sir_namr895 I can't afford to break them or take them to the Limit without worrying about the cash so let him do it awesome awesome comment though
