Ya i totally get what your saying, it would be nice, but redcat keeps their prices down and adding things like a 2.4ghz will boost the price and turn customers away. It would be cool if they had an aftermarket one from redcat though.

Status: offline 		Actually ya i bought a volcano off a guy who put a savage fuel tank in it. It was super amazing because i would run for so long and realize that i didnt fill up and i probably should, but i still had more fuel left. You just gotta dremel away part of the upper plate. It screwed in 2 places, one was right next to the tranny, like maybe 1/2 or 3/4 an inch away from the tranny. The other was near the front diff i think.

See its just screwed in using some pretty big screws. Was pretty secure in there

Np man good luck. What i would do is just get the tank and then make sure you measure or mark before you cut. Make sure its gonna fit and stuff.

All i gotta say is, proof is in the video that brushless is just something nitro can't really touch

I was in local hobby shop other day and kid was with grandma and had broken part with help of few people we had him up and going again. Grandma said he read the manual serveral times bu there was no information in there. Well so I think better manual with more details for those that are starting and sometimes us older ones too could use few ideas to help out ya know.

PLEASE IMPROVE MANUAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Status: offline 		For the Vortex EPX Pro Desert truck I would like to have a DEDICATED owners manual that clearly shows what Parts are for ONLY your Model As it stands right now you have to figure it out because it uses parts from other models. The booklet is small and the Blck and White Photos are too dark to see detailed smaller parts and is quite confusing for someone not familiar with the Model. I got the wrong size on a couple parts due this.

what parts do you (both dealers and the folks that run 'em) want?

How about a starter kit that's not missing the Angle Ruler. lol I mean it's not a biggy or anything but i bought another Red Cat kit (backdraft 3.5) and it came with a starter kit(item no.80141) but it was missing the angle ruler. I've never used one but thought it was cool that i would have one to mess around with. Guess i'll look for one in my next kit.

The Moonsoon tank will fit in the avalance I am not sure how much 25cc more is but it does extend my run time when I am running 75 laps a main. Plus the monsoon has the clamps on the side of the gas tank which means you can set your lines nice and neat.

It would be nice to get more hobby shops to carry Red Cat kits, parts, and whatnot.

WE MUST BOYCOTT!!!
