Default RE: how good is redcat 1/5 scale?

I don't want to hijack jonnymobil's thread here but


like i say clones dont do it for me but your opinion may be differnt and thats what its all about.......
isn't your carson an FG clone DC , i just want to set the record straight here so I'm not trying to start a pissing match...the rampage is not a clone of an MCD, it has a similar layout...mid engine...you can have mid engine or rear engine and that's it so design parameters are kinda restricted, just the gears and wheel dogbones interchange...nothing else will fit even closely. Sorry to hear your buddies had bad luck with theirs...must have been from the first batch before they resolved many of the issues and in the USA and Canada we have unfailing support from redcat racing and rampagehopups and parts are readily available and cheap...honestly these trucks have come along in leaps and bounds in the last 6mths and are virtually bombproof with a few mods that cost less than my 4 plate FG diff did
