I ran a Redcat too!

I took my 6s Redcat Machete, with the 4s body and some Big Chungus tires, out for a ramp bash. It handled well! Those big tires give the air control needed to land well, because this bad boy is nose-heavy! If you come off the ramp with some speed, it'll fly pretty nicely. I might even be able to pull off a backflip with enough berries off the ramp. Can't wait to do it again, hopefully when it's not 99% humidity!

Ran this little guy today, don't use it much. FMS Atlas I bought on sale for $69 I think. Kinda weak, has more traction than motor so you gotta bash it a bit to get anywhere. Still fun!
Lots of upgrades for the FMS stuff. Furitek has a gearbox, motor, etc I believe.

So its just like a 1:1 version?! Cool!!! 😎😍😁
 
This is what I drove today. My daughter and I got asked to leave the dirt park today. He claimed we were destroying the place. Neither My daughter nor I had done a single roost at that point. The Washington state motto is "MINE NOT YOURS, PLEASE LEAVE". I met a guy with a 5th scale Outcast while I was there, we'll be meeting up at a different dirt park tomorrow morning for a drive.

The wife has decided she needs some type of open wheel crawler so our outings are more evenly matched. She said I should give her the Capra and get something else for myself. Yep, she's a keeper.
Get a UTB18. The non 4ws rigs are cheap right now, and very capable like most 1/10 scale stuff. I almost got one.

That looks like a cool platform but I'd want something the same scale. Considering the Vanquish optic, maybe the stance. Got some research to do.
 
I have the 4WS version and love it
Have you broken any axle shafts yet? That was the only complaint I read about. Obviously, the tires and electronics suck but that's a given with the RTR.
