@MrsRabbit8 2 месяца назад

Just had to watch the video again, I'm excited! One thing that i really appreciate is the approach & departure angles. Other trucks, such as the gladiator have some serious overhang. I'm also not into hard bodies with a wheel sticking off the back, i know it's fun for some people to have a bunch of realistic details, but for me that's not a good balance of performance and scale. I've heard from a few people that Redcat has quality issues, so we will have to see what we see with this one.

Great review Matt! Thought you were gonna pee yourself you were so excited! LOL! Looks like a really good RTR that might actually be decent out of the box. Smart move by them on the price. Should make for some red faces over at SCX...... LOL! LOVE that it's closer to the SCX24, size wise. Kinda seems like there's some scale creep going on with some brands as well as not much new coming in the 1/24th scale. I guess it's just easier to fit stuff in a 1/18th. Thanks Matt!

@RadRaf 2 месяца назад

So I am heavily invested in 1/24. I've resisted 1/18 for the past couple of years and refused to buy into that scale as I didn't want another scale to start stocking up on parts as well but the dang market is REALLY making it hard for me to keep resisting. What is everyone's thoughts? Am I doomed to start buting 1/18 size products now??

@wingnutbert9685 2 месяца назад

Agree. And I'm not even that far into the SCX24 Kool-aid bowl. I really love the small size of the 1/24th. But I agree, 1/18th seems to be where things are settling in. I suppose it gives a bit more room for fitting stuff in more easily. At least this and the Evo pro are close to the SCX24 size, unlike the TRX 4M and others. So at least they'll run on courses people have build for their SCX's.

@2fmrc 2 месяца назад

Most of these 1/18s share the same wheels/tires and electronics as the 1/24s. Besides that not a ton of stuff crosses on them anyways so I say may as well add another scale to the collection 😆

@MrsRabbit8 2 месяца назад

I felt the same way, and also a bit feeling like my unfinished projects are doomed now for sure. Damn. Well, they're not too much different in size, and many shared parts, so no worries on that.

@jasonbecker4997 2 месяца назад

Definitely agree. Cab looks small. 1/4 inch of the bottom and cut off the fender flares, think it would look better.

@wingnutbert9685 2 месяца назад

Yeah, those skirts kinda through the look off. But I think trimming them to look right would expose a gap to the skids and may look just as goofy. Unless there's some room to get the whole body lower. But the chassis design with those tall shock towers might restrict dropping the body. Still, for $100, seems to be another death nail for SCX24 unless they finally pull their collective heads outta their corporate tushes. ;)

@wingnutbert9685 2 месяца назад

- Kinda meh on the body. I think it's the extended skirts under the doors. They kinda make the cab look out of proportion but I guess it was needed as the distance from the shock towers to the skid is quite big. If the chassis height could be chopped down, those skirts could be trimmed and it would look great. Or punch through the hood and bed for that exposed suspension tower look. That from grill stickers screams 70's Datsun!!! LOL! ???- Do you think a smaller batt could be tucked onto that flat surface under the hood to get weight more forward or is it gonna hit the body? ???- Could underdrive be put in both front and rear if someone wanted slower crawl? Would definitely love to see you do a vid on what can be done in terms of stock/mostly stock mod'ing for the low budget crowd and a full-on mod-orama. :) Is this better than the CR18 Evo pro?

@2fmrc 2 месяца назад

So the battery won’t fit well under the hood. If you toon the plate out and stuck it to the servo it may possibly clear the body but the chassis is so narrow in the front I think it would hit a lot. And you could definitely underdrive the front and rear on it!
