As the big brands rehash their crawlers with the 10th or the 15th body or tire variation, it is refreshing to see a company offer a product that targets what the market is looking for. And they charge a lot less money than the others do. I only hope that they made enough supply the demand for this release.
-
Awesome news about this Redcat. BTW, FYI, and others interested. I successfully removed 3 sets of glued tires (Traxxas TRX4 Canyon) using a heat gun.

We bought the Red one. We are putting in the Hobbywing SE (may swap in the pro, we'll see), brass Gen 9 carriers, brass wheels, and jconcepts tires..my 10 y/o daughter will be looking to be competitive with her new Redcat Ascent..her Gen 9 has brought home a few trophies, so she's looking to be a contender again!! Her Modo, "Send IT like a Beast and Drive Like a Girl!!"

adding the 20% underdrive was also free and super helpful!
-
Great seeing you at Scale Challenge this past weekend.
-
Excellent video of this rig. I'm getting one for sure. Was torn between what body I wanted. But sold on the Blue after watching your videos
-
Just ordered the Red one on Amazon it was sold out everywhere else. Thank you Francis!
-
My 10 year old daughter wants a crawler. Knowing that she might not be into it long term the cost of the rig is important. I'm getting her the blue one and doing your upgrades. I'll happily drive it if she doesn't want it.
-
Looks like an Awesome crawler for little money !!! Good Job Redcat !!!!
-
What's cool about your review is that you have experience with higher end belly draggers and can set up the Ascent to perform. Most other reviews don't give it the proper add ons & just think that's it when it comes out of the box. If it had badass electronics & wheels the price point would be much higher.
-
Great info, Francis! I do like these trucks, but probably wouldn't get one unless they do a straight-axle version. I just do not like portals... unless the truck is a Unimog. And I don't know if you've said so, but the bodies look to be based on Datsun 520 and 521 models.
-
Good stuff,keep up the good work,injoyed it 👍☕️☕️✌️
-
I think the best Motor swap would be that Hobbywing Fusion SE 1800 or 1200kv 2 in 1 esc motor as it's not bad and it can allow the battery to move up to that front plate.
-
Dang Francis i dont need a 6th crawler but if i do it'll be definitely the new red cat ascent. After seeing you drive it in person i was impressed with how well it did stock
-
Great video and links. I like your reviews. Which do you recommend scout Ben 8 or this on in the video?
-
Another great video! I’m curious why you haven’t installed the included transfercase gears to underdrive the rear?
-
Nicely explained and full of info
-
Interesting. I've been holding off for a while but would love a lcg rig that is budget friendly. Although I want a little speed added into it ie up to 10-20 tops and capable of crawling
-
Also with the half cab, maybe you should explain how the rear stays attached. People were asking on the Redcat Facebook page but no one has really explained it. . Great video... going to set mine up like yours😅👊 maybe some Club 5 Brass Hex Extenders for the Gen 8...they are not to wide but it may help👍
