Hey all, Thanks for watching!

This is the Gen 9 From Redcat Racing! Available in Blue and Gray this $399 crawler is definitely worth the money over it’s 320-340 dollar predecessor. That might grind the gears from a few hardocore Gen 8 fans but I promise the steering geometry alone is worth the money not to mention the two speed transmission and clipless body. Of course you have to remember to turn the tabs correctly or you’ll have a mishap like you see in the video but GOODBYE VELCRO!!!

Okay. So this 2-speed portal axle demon has a terrific approach angle of 63.5 degrees, 80mm of ground clearance, and a 53 degree departure angle. It’s steering has been greatly improved and they’ve fixed the axle shift that created all the bumpsteering in the Gen 8 by reversing the servo and putting the linkage behind the servo. You can tell immediately the difference between the rigs. Solid improvement.

This truck, a licensed International Harvester Scout 800a means business. While it uses the standard 32 pitch pinion and spur gear (technically .8 mod), the rest of the truck is running primarily mod 1 gears. Excellent for gearheads everywhere. Since running the truck I was completely stunned at how good the articulation is. Nice job Redcat! It’s ready for lights, many of the Gen 8 parts will work, and Treal has a bunch of stuff for it out that will have you excited to start flexing on the competition right quick.

At first I really was thinking this was just a solid trail truck. Not so sure anymore. I can definitely see these hitting the comp circuits very soon. It’s a much better truck than I expected for $399 and I’ve definitely decided to invest in this rig just because of how happy I am with the steering improvement. I’ll definitely overdrive it (waiting for my Treal stuff to arrive currently, but it’s pretty awesome. Redcat has been slaying it lately.

NOTE – I AM NOT ENDORSED BY ANY MANUFACTURER! I CALL IT LIKE I SEE IT! If I were to receive something from a company you’d still get an honest reaction. I love RC and hope to attract as many people to the hobby as I can. Wouldn’t be doing anyone any favors if I endorsed junk. (watch my Remoking Thunder or HPI King Crawler if ya want the proof!)

*Thanks so much for watching my video. This one in particular was tough. My mic gave out, I’m using a new gimbal, the settings on my gopro were wonky, and as I was approaching the area I wanted to climb this group of families showed up and went right to it just to take pictures. Guess that’s on me for not getting up early enough lol! So thank you so much for your support! Big love to everyone that subscribes and gives this video a like. That anyone would watch my videos humbles me greatly. Thank you!
