Redcat Ascent-18 Rock Crawler: Performance and Innovation in a Tiny Package
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- Scale rock crawling has garnered immense popularity, attracting enthusiasts who relish navigating challenging terrains and conquering obstacles with specialized vehicles. Redcat has earned respect in the 1:10 scale crawling community by offering high-quality competitive vehicles at a reasonable price. “With the Ascent-18, we have brought the same level of quality, performance, and affordability found in our 1:10 scale crawlers into the 1:18 scale crawler market,” said a Redcat spokesperson. While this small 1:18 scale crawler may fit in your hand, it is extremely capable and boasts high-end features typically found in larger-scale competitive crawlers.

One of the benefits of the Ascent-18’s small size is that it opens up many new crawling opportunities. With a 1:18 scale crawler, previously overlooked ordinary objects are now recognized as potential crawling grounds. A small pile of driveway gravel can easily be converted into a gnarly rock crawler course and a few added sticks offer an additional challenge. With the Ascent-18, rainy days have become an exciting adventure of indoor crawling. The entire house is now a potential crawler course. Simply driving on the couch, transitioning from one cushion to the other, is very satisfying. Place a couple of magazines, books, playing cards, pillows, or even a scrunched-up blanket on the floor, and you’ve instantly created a competitive 1:18 scale obstacle course that can provide hours of fun. All this in the comfort of your own home. The Ascent-18 broadens the possibilities and brings a whole new level of excitement to this amazing hobby.
The Ascent-18 features ball bearings, hex drive hardware, portal axles, impressive steering angle, optional underdrive gearing, aluminum chassis rails, metal ring and pinion gears, machined aluminum spools, metal portal gears, 7mm wheel hexes, powerful 180 sized motor, precision metal geared micro servo, aluminum capped oil filled shocks, 750 mAh 2S LIPO battery pack and of course a Redcat 2.4Ghz radio system. Redcat is also launching a complete line of performance hop up parts that will be available at the time of the Ascent-18 release, which is absolutely amazing. We’ll be going over which performance parts Redcat has decided to offer and we think you’ll be excited.

When will we be able to get new pink bodies? Getting parts together to upgrade my new pink ascent 18, but don't want to cut the fenders up if I can't get a replacement the same color.
Turned out really cool, great work redcat.
Thank you so much 👍
Has anyone had trouble with the lower socket breaking on the shocks while doing your brass swap? 3 out of 4 broke on me. Not sure the thought process behind the design but definitely the weakest link.. Other than that everything seems pretty solid...
Think this will be my 2nd redcat rc. 👍
Cool 👍- - Have fun
Love that these are made in my home state, got one coming Friday to be little bro to my gen8 v2. Can't wait to see what it can do! I pulled a stroller with my 5 week old daughter in it down a dirt road with my gen8 🤘
I had to buy three..not fir the colors though..This rc is great!
On the way. Was going to get big but went with 1/18, next one will be bigger
