RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Racing 1/8th BUGGY thread (not truck thread)

How is everybody? I...

RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Racing 1/8th BUGGY thread (not truck thread)

Don't get me wrong it is a fun little mini buggy and the construction is very similar to the 8th kyoshos including cvds but IMO its just not worth the money it sells for. I have the electric version...

RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Racing 1/8th BUGGY thread (not truck thread)

Just got the mini today. I have to say kyosho let me down this time. I was driving a Team Associated mini the other day and the TA is a bit cheaper than the kyosho, but out performs it in every way....

RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Racing 1/8th BUGGY thread (not truck thread)

The stryker for sure, foam is a good thing as far as repairs. All you need is some 5 minute epoxy and packing tape for repairs. I dont think I crashed first flight but I did obliterate my first plane...

RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Racing 1/8th BUGGY thread (not truck thread)

Origionally the buggy started as the redcat hurricane XL and after breaking parts a couple of times I didn't like waiting for ordered parts. A local shop stocked 7.5 parts and my friend happened to...

RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Racing 1/8th BUGGY thread (not truck thread)

RE: "OFFICIAL" Redcat Racing 1/8th BUGGY thread (not truck thread)

The car in the pictures is an electric. Its a 1/18th scale drift car. For flying electrics id say go with the parkzone stryker as a first. It is easy to learn on and easily repaired. The hornet would...
