Hey Fella’s, first time seeing channel in my feed. I liked and subbed immediately.! The best video I’ve seen on the “RedCat Ascent 18”. Following each other on the exact same course was the perfect way to show this truck’s capabilities in nearly stock form and in a totally tricked out form. Y’all proved yet again, what I learned long ago. It’s not all about your equipment, yes you need at least a basic capable truck but, the bottom line is “the skills are 80-90%” of the deal. That only takes practice and learning from watching people like Y’all. Very inspiring video for me, noobs or anyone thinking of trying the hobby. You don’t have to break the bank to get started. A $99 RedCat Ascent 18 comes with everything. The Truck, transmitter, battery and a charger, all in one box. Oh, you’ll need to snag a couple AA’s from TV remote. Get off the couch, Go outside, breathe some fresh air, have fun! The cool part is everything You learn in this hobby transfers to real life, not to mention all the cool people and new friends you’ll meet in the RC Crawler community. Great video! I wish I had two more hands, I could give y’all 4 👍!! 🦈
Hey thank you so much! We are happy you like our content! The redcats are amazing and so cheap, a perfect entry into the hobby and endless fun! Does take some practice but they go all over! Let us know if there is ever anything else you Wana see us do on the channel!
To add a note on upgrading the wheels without upgrading the links...those heavy wheels add a lot of force when you tumble...I broke a rear lower link when I flopped my rig down a hill.
So I suggest ordering a set of the links when you add heavy wheels.
I have heard of that link breaking on a few of these definitely seems to be a weak point in the ascent 18
Nice comparison, I do believe you have sold me on my first mini crawler. Can’t wait to get it in. Will look for those tires & wheels.
Glad we can help! ASCENT 18 is awesome
Excellent video! Subscribed. I have one on order through my lhs and will be watching.
You will love it And Thanks for the sub!
600 into that thing?! Jiminy Cricket!
Great tires on the blue, hard to choose between those and the black labels, but really high up now, needs some brass n mods on the blue.
Thank you!
The red one is a beast! Crazy how heavy it is. Can't wait to upgrade the blue, waiting for aftermarket parts to do another upgrade video should be good
Great vid guys! I'm a new subscriber and I'm impressed with your vids. That was a awesome comp between the red cats. I just put injora brass wheels and dj crawler m/t tires on my ascent18. Hope it does well with that set up.
Hey thanks for the comment! Let us know if there is ever something you Wana see! I actually just put together Injora wheels and the same tires for the blue one before reading this hahaha the ones in the vid were just spare. I think they will do awesome!
You're very welcome. I believe you'll be pleased with the dj crawler tires. They seem to grip really well and they look killer on the ascent18.
Why I don’t use a heavy wheel is because half that weight is always above the axle. Brass portal parts are where it’s at
An awesome part of the hobbies is all the combination of parts to pick and choose from. I think this guy has done wonderful with just the two upgrades
Like and subd
Thanks for the sub like and comment! Let us know in the comments if there is anything you want to see!
What tires and wheels are on the Blue one because I want to get me set of them for my Redcat.. awesome channel guys... 🤙🏼✌🏼
Injora 1.3 brass wheel (might have to order off of their website they sell out on Amazon fast) and their 70mm swamp tires. I love them
Blue is just a body trim from greatness 😊
That it is! hahaha thanks for the comment
I have the exact same upgrades as Jr but I broke my steering servo link..have you upgraded that part??
No that’s one part a have not upgraded yet I have plans to make a brass one but haven’t done it yet. I wish redcat would have made one that came with the brass steering link.
Why is Redcat not making an LCG 6X6?
I would buy one so fast if they did! Promise you that!
what tires and wheels on the blue one again?
Injora 1.3 brass wheels on their 70mm swamp tires
