Now this looks like a good insert setup! Having foams in the back will help with the rear sliding out to much side hilling. And the injora will be just right for weight in front. I like it man good approach!💯
I like your way of thinking Troy. That’s a great idea to offset weight and put the silicone inserts in front for a more front biased weight distribution. Good thinking! Love the treal wheels! They look epic on the fusion! 👊🏼😎💯✌🏼
Im still thinking of purchasing one of these, they look awesome and perfect for my Son and I to toy with, at an affordable price. Ill be tuning in for more updates . Great content.
I have the green but decided to get the blue because I feel the green should only go on the back of my truck that has a 60-40 weight bias. The greens are pretty soft. Trying to tune these with my rupture and megalithic tires
Im thinking the same thing gonna run greens on all 4 tires a day then gonna leave green on the rear of the truck and blue on the front All though now im thinking it’s easier to get all 4 in blue and just tune them a little more in the back and leave the front as is ditching green altogether?? What rig u have also depends on the weight of the truck
Troy Love this new Redcat truck. I think you bought a set of the green inserts a while back. Have you tried them in back. Would love to see a vid on how they do VS the foam. Keep up the good work.
@RoadsideRC no they are not . The manual even shows a picture of them.. they only removed the rear. . Front still show inner springs. Maybe redcat has the wrong description?
@axetogrindproductions4153 Ah - I just assumed you were talking about the rear. I actually like the front inners. They seem to do really well. They did change the external springs.
Love the wheel choice looks great. Question on venting the tires I don't vent mine as they see a lot of water and mud do you have trouble with the stock foams breaking down over time being wet.
Foams always break down over time - just a part of the territory. Venting them is what helps allow the water and mud to get out. Otherwise, I find it just stays there. But - if you are successful at keeping them sealed - then more power to you!
I love your videos :) I'm torn between the red cat ascent fusion and the vanquish stance or carbon vrd, money is no object here, I need a good performer :) What is your feeling about this ?
Money no object for raw performance, carbon VRD all day. The Stance will perform well, but the carbon kit has a ton of upgraded parts that are worth well over the difference in kit costs. Hobbywing Fusion and a direct power servo, and call it a day
I typically do 4 holes - but I don't think there is really a "right" answer with this. I have found that drill bits will tear through the tire, but not actually create a clean hole. The hole punch like I was using is super cheap. The other method I have used is a small piece of tubing. 1/8 tubing chucked into a drill will create a nice hole.
Be careful with that thread lock that shit is like cement lol. I liked to never got my skid plate screws off on my redcat 🤬I now use a microscopic amount!
@@RoadsideRC yes sir I used the blue. I forget the brand but what I have is some good stuff! I had to drill out the screws! I tried heat using a heat gun and that didn’t even work!
I left it in the factory side-skid location. Used this one: www.amazon.com/dp/B08R72ZF6N/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_apa_gl_i_R44ZME1NXN9R0MR5EWRD?linkCode=ml2&tag=roadsiderc-20
