- My Redcat Ascent/18 journey from stock to Comp l crawler. Still have a couple more upgrades planned for it. I am very happy with the Mofo Rc big block motor, it out performs the stock motor by far.

Really did wonders for the performance. Good choice flipping the motor and battery positions. liked and subbed!
I think you did the perfect amount of modifications.Two things I do also recommend is removing the upper tray above the servo because it contacts the servo when the front suspension is fully compressed. I would also shave down the plastic servo mount ears some on each side because it contacts the frame rails during full front articulation from left to right.
Appreciate! I will for sure do your recommendation. I have filed down the ears on my scx24 for smoother articulation.
I just cut the whole frame off right in front of the front shocks.
Like mine a lot. I did break a link, so will go with alumimum ones.
Can u make a video how to endpoint adjustments on the Red cat Ascent 18 please I cannot figure it out for the life of me I am new to RC😢
If you’re running the factory Redcat controller the D/R trim is where you can adjust your Endpoints plus or minus. If you have an after market remote you should have a EPA option to adjust your end points plus or minus. I can post a video later this week also.
Thank u yeah I really appreciate it if you could make a video I was reading the manual and it was seem that I have to be on a certain channel for for certain sides or something like that but thank you I appreciate you God bless
well done. very nice build and you had some smaller wheels so you didn't have to bother the body shell. are you gonna shave the servo corners?. I just got a ascent myself, broke a link and headed brass. you made the ascent the way redact should have. but I guess It would leave little room for personal modification.
I just recently shaved the servo mounts to allow a little more articulation, also waiting on a couple of things to make a few more changes and will have a new video out once the parts come in.
Awesome!! do you have a link for the brass links?
I've been looking for links too

Awesome mods! Did you have to revers the throttle on the receiver?
I did not have to.
Do you have a link on where to buy those brass links from??
RC Steve 710 on Facebook. But a better cheaper link set would be the TRX4m high clearance links from injora. Brass or Stainless.
But the TRX4M rod end pivot balls have a hole with a 2.5mm hole & the Ascent uses 2mm. So the TRX4M links would mount very sloppy with that much play between the 2mm Ascent 18 mounting bolt diameter & the TRX4M rod end pivot ball with a 2.5mm hole is the problem.
The Traxxas links are about 5mm longer so they will stretch the wheelbase & you may need different driveshafts
Got a link to the motor and servo ?

Man that thing is noisy mine absolutely silent
Your stock motor or Mofo Rc big block.
I think I will stick with the stock motor myself. So far it has worked well for me, and nearly silent. I bought the mofo for a scx24 and it is noisy to.
@@LucasOutdoors54 yes I agree Mofo RC is louder, but overall performance is better than stock motor.
