r/RedCat_Ascent18

Hey 👋 brand new to crawling and loving this little guy so I wanted to introduce myself and the mini rig.

I couldn't help but customize the body to make it mine!

Trying to add a bit of scale look for when I'm just chilling in the yard. It utilizes factory mounting so you can swap back and forth between this and the included lexan body whenever you want.

Matching yeti cooler in the back. Need to make some more scale accessories to add in the bed next!

INJORA 1.3" Aluminium Beadlock Wheels -5.25mm offset on 5mm brass hexs, pin tires and the yellow silicone inserts.

INGORA shocks that I changed the oil to 20w anti-foam motorcycle shock oil.

INJORA drive shaft.

REDCAT over and under drive totaling a 31% difference in wheels speed from front to rear. Then some cosmetic ano from REDCAT.

Hello all. I just got the brushed model and, part way through installing meus brass portals, discovered that the mounting for these is completely different/with a much lower mount point.

Does anyone know what axle these portals for or the right portals for my axle?

This was a very unpleasant surprise.

Picked up one of the scout II models on sale, excited to build this thing up all nice like the stampede I had as a kid

Apex Chassis from AMain. 👌

Guys im wondering if the redcat ascent comes water resistant stock out of box? Ive only done my local rc course. Only upgraded is the wheels/tires atm

So I just tossed this body on one of my rigs and it came with 2 different sized headlight covers. The larger one fits perfectly, the smaller of the two is too small. I ordered a replacement body kit from Amazon and it only had the two smaller headlight covers. Has anyone else experienced this? Should I just get in touch with Injora customer service to get a replacement or roll the dice again on Amazon?
