Thanks !! I used the Redcat alloy gear plate & F chassis brace, Ramtech Pin holders, Hitec Servos, JetPro ( obvious ! ), Zenoah G270, HPI air filter, Outerwares air / pull, Vertigo wheel adaptors, DarkSoul Beadlocks & nuts, Proline wheels, Promatch battery, Spektrum radio. I believe that covers it. Oh ... SWB servo arm & most importantly Hostile Hobby Mini MX V2 Tires. The body I did complete at about 1:30 a.m. last night. I better think about some sleep tonight !

Also tried these beadlocks, but decided against them.

Welcome, real nice looking buggy, great paint and love the blue beadlocks. the side pipe looks pretty good on the buggies, my only concern is with me as I'm sure I'd manage to smush it.

you also did the windows on the shell like i did mine. havent seen any one do the "darthvader" yet.. i think it adds a little to the not-so appealing redcat shell


looks awsome and is surely going to roost up.. maybe you can get some vids?

Yea, from Indiana. I work at Largescalerc here. Not advertising, I would really like to be able to have my own identity. I have 4 1/5 scales now & more in the future. What a CRAZY addiction ! :rolleyes:


I have a ton of videos, some I shot & others drove. Some my wife shot & I drove with others. The HPI / Rampage / Prospec video was my 5b driven by someone I think Scott, vs the rampage I believe driven by Troy from the shop.

Lookin good Looker. Redcat does make a very good RC. With some simple mods, they are bulletproof. Let usknow what you think as compared to some of the other models you have bashed.


Good to have you hear.

Thanks everyone. There are quite a few fimiliar names around here. Ha Ha. Yea I know 4 just don't seem like enough. I'm hoping to be at at least 6 by summers end. I did get the chance to run it, but couldn't get myself to do it yet. I had my 5bSS there & it was already dirty .... so I ran the crap out of it. Here are a few pictures from the running.
