Redcat team,

your radio should have the cyrstals with it, but at any hobby shop you can buy crystals

i guess i'm not the only that had problems (they forgot to ship my radio with order but they sent it out right away once i emailed them about it, i got the radio now with no battery cover it is missing so emailed redcat again, now they sent out the battery cover, it should be here soon)
I guess with so many radios to replace they are just having some issues but i'm sure they will make sure you get everything eventually

just make sure you email them with your invoice number and what the problem is or what is missing

The company seems to be doing alot of things for their clintele and is going in the right direction.

One thing I would like to know is why didn't Redcat go with the 2.4Ghz radio systems when they started out? I have always been an airplane kinda guy, I am only now going to be buying a Tornado S-30, and all my airplanes, of which I have 40+ planes and about 25 helicopters, are running on the Spektrum systems. AM/FM systems seem to be a thing of the past and I really think that Redcat should consider this option. I wouldn't hesitate to buy their product for a little more than it costs now if it had the 2.4 Ghz system in it.

Way to go Redcat.

Steve the noob.

ssrc30: because one of redcats big things in a inexpensive but good way to get into the hobby. there are only like five models that could have the potential to race seriously. most of them are pretty much bashers (which are fantastic to me.) i have a lighting and my brother has a 4-tec, i hit a wall and break a arm i spend three dollars and its fixed. he hits a wall, spends twelve dollars and fusses about it all day.
they are cheap but pretty durable. they dont need to come with 2.4 Ghz to be as fun as they are.

Yes, I agree with you. I am still a noob in the hobby as far as cars go and after reading more on the Redcat models I see where you are coming from.

for your first nitro vehicle i would strongly suggest that you give redcat a try with the fact that its a good cheap way to enter the hobby. if you fall in love with it you could always go to traxxas, hpi, or whatever and get a better vehicle. if dont like it, you havent spent much money at all.

to me (i dont race seriously) the real only difference to me speed and just alittle handling (on-road).

Yes, I totally agree. Infact, i have already decided that I am gonna give it a go with the Tornado S-30.

i would never buy a big name brand new. to me its not worth it. i have dealers localy so i can get parts pretty quick. if i found something for really cheap, then i might get it. but i love redcats, i just bought my 4th. two in a couple days. but i love them, the only difference i see in these and "big" brands is that they are known, and these are "looked at" like cheap chinese cars. They may not be total race cars, but they arent meant to be. redcat doesnt put HUGE amounts of money into redesigning and all that to make top level race cars. But they do compete though, ive heard of plenty of races where redcats race with big brands, and win too.So buy what you want, but i dont see the point in paying tons of money over the cost of a redcat for a name brand 1/10th. anyways ill quit ranting, but dont listen to people telling you to buy name brands, people buy these cars, break them because they dont know what they are doing, and blame it on the car. but buy one, ask questions and dont jump into things and you will be fine, there are tons of people here to help
