I'm liking this RC. It seems to handle pretty dang well for being stock. Different tires pinion turn the punch up and that thing is going to be a ripper!!!! I'd love to see if it can hang with the Kraton etc on the track in a actual race 🤔 Looks like it can!?!?!

Love that red cat is stepping up their game than one of the best RC's for the price I don't think you could ask for much better for I'm probably going to pick one up after watching these videos

I can't wait to see what people start doing with this I think with a little bit of aftermarket support this thing will be a real weapon. I really like the upper arm design and the side guards to the chassis the fact that they run all the way back. I think Red Cat has a real contender here

Wow. Hats off to Redcat. Never owned one because my son and I mostly stick to Arrma, but have followed their progress for years now. This is impressive and I think it’ll turn some heads of the Redcat naysayers. Gotta give credit where it’s due. I’m seriously thinking about getting one.

Joe I’d like to see some concrete ramp tests with the proline Baja pro X predators, one on stock foams and one with antifoams. then you can try different tuning rod configurations and test those vs empty antifoams? 🤔 I was thinking a layer of rods all the way around the outside of the tire to support the lugs might be good idea, like a reverse dual stage, since the anti foam takes care of sideroll on its own. That should help with lugs falling over but still allow conformity

@knowair6767 Жыл бұрын

Great video!! I like Redcat overall. It is a budget brand but offers good value I feel. This Machete looks like alot of fun for informal racing, field and parking lots..definitely doesn't appear to be aimed at the basher market IMO. Sure looked well suited for your track though. Better tires for loose terrain and I think it'll be great. As to folks talking about bigger motors, I don't see that working out here. Redcats drivetrain is pretty minimal. Maybe a slight bump will be okay but that's about it. I find that to be the case with most rc's though.. Arrma, TRX..sure, you can drop a 4985 in it, and start stocking up on diffs and driveshafts cuz they eat em with bigger motors😂😂

@ransom8006 Жыл бұрын

I know that there's no aftermarket availability for the rc yet, but I want one SOOO bad. It's just different and cool 🤷‍♂️ My biggest question is if the machete would handle the Max8 g2 combo or not. There's not a single video on what this thing can handle. How good are the stock parts and how much power can they handle. These are the "need to know" things that people need to see to have some faith in this car. After that, I really think the machete can take off and get some aftermarket attention.

@ExocagedRC Жыл бұрын

Have you opened the diffs? I know the bulkheads look a bit odd to open up.

@tjkj-om9oi Жыл бұрын

@@ExocagedRC Yeah I have it all tore down as the diffs were extremely difficult to turn by hand out of the box. Can not see any issue and the diff unit spins freely when out of the vehicle but bolted in does not. Guess the bulkheads are the issue, time to break out the dremel. Once I can get the diffs to spin freely and with the 1515 2200kv Castle installed it should rip with a 19t pinion. Oh the stock motor has an extremely long shaft so any aftermarket motor will need long shank pinion like from Tekno and 19t is the largest that will fit in stock trim, 20t pinion is just a tad tight for gear mesh.

Looks like they tried to copy arrma but just looks cheap in my opinion, never been much of a redcat fan aside from the rampage

@TheMdavis07 Жыл бұрын

It looks nothing like in Armma aside from the fact that it's a 1/8 scale truggy but how many other brands have 1/8 scale four-wheel drive vehicles. and if this is the same thing as in Arrma then so is Team corally so is techno. I don't know what you're basing this off of. And sorry if I sound a little upset but I get really mad when everybody rips on Red cat when they probably never really looked at just how good the engineering is on the lot of their vehicles they just had bad luck with their plastics. Take a look at the wendigo axles probably one of the strongest crawler axles out there. That's a redcat. Redcat racing isn't as crappy as everybody makes it seem there are lots of people that own red cats and they're very happy with them. There are also lots of people that have had bad luck with red cat. But I got news for you every brand has some vehicles that just aren't that good it doesn't mean the whole brand is crap. I think this is a really awesome vehicle and I think it's a really good alternative to a lot of the other choices out there. But hey that's just my opinion just don't be so quick to bash on something just because you heard other people say bad things about it. I don't know maybe I'm being a little harsh but try to have more of an open mind about different brands cuz it really opens up the chance for you to find something really cool and different.

@spoolyboi9434 Жыл бұрын

@@TheMdavis07 in your feelings much??? Just stating facts, redcat has maybe a few cars that are worth buying if you're a serious basher, the rest are cheap and that's ok if someone doesn't have much to spend or maybe as a first RC for a kid, the redcat gen 8 crawler is solid, the kaiju is ok, and as I mentioned before the rampage, the stuff like the volcano or lighting and those types are pure trash compared to any major brand, traxxas, losi, arrma, and corally copied but actually made a solid RC that didn't need to be recalled as soon as it was released, but at the price point of most of the redcats new you can come up on a used traxxas or arrma and have something much better with better stock and aftermarket parts support either online or in hobby shops, I always say run what you like or can afford I'll never judge someone as I buy all my RCs used since I don't want to spend what most cost new, I've been in the hobby for many years now and I've owned dirt cheap brands even lower than red cat and owned some of the nicest that can be bought and as with all things in life you typically get what you pay for
