amazing truck
I bought the redcat rs10.. I'm very happy with it however i did burn up the front motor already. Do to the fact that the hex's that are on the axel's are not machined very well. they got pushed into the bearing and made the front almost immposible to turn by hand...I think if you take a file to the back of the hex's you can file it down so the hex does not get so close to the beering and make the wheels freeze up i'm not sure yet i'm working on that now. either that or get aftermarket hex's for all 4 wheels...which is not a very big deal just wanted some people to know.. And i'm also having a hard time finding an aftermarket replacement motor for the truck do to the fact the motor is a smaller size (380). Someone has told me that they make a kit to be able to put the bigger motors on the redcat. Other than that i'm still very happy with the rs10...and would tell other people to buy this truck!! The rs10 is a beast...the 4 wheel steering is a big PLUS. I dominate other comp. trucks with my stock rs10!! any suggestions on what to do??? any upgrades that anyone thinks should be done?
