Nice review. Would like to see a stock Redcat PACK run that same line with the same no spring shock setup that you ran in UGRC and see how it compares to the new chassis setup.
My predator chassis build I'm just running a rear tube / chassis stiffener hoping it doesn't catch rocks. Can you elaborate on what you had to do to turn the servo horn around. Great video! 👍
Awesome! I will have pretty much the same truck. Will not be yellow though and I don't have a Reef's servo......yet. Waiting for a micro 99 for another project though. This just gives me a preview of the truck I am building!
Same I really like that yellow 👌. Something different looks like that has a lot of potential. Very nice... Looking forward to the next vid. can I have this one done before my optimist 3 build... Parts are ways easier to come by.
Thanks for showing how you built this, it’s one of my Favorite Body’s right now But I am Nowhere ready to try an build a chassis yet and Most folks just assume everyone Already Knows how to do Everything that They do... Not true, Some of Us are just Starting to think about it...!! 😎👍✅
Nice value $149 for the PACK direct from Redcat, $150 for the chassis, $34 for the body. Heck $300 for a comp level slider is great. Other chassis companies like Deadloc Racing sell chassis for $60 so likely they’ll have an option soon too
I just got my UGRC chassis together. Wondering how you did your steering setup with the horn facing backwards. Also what wheelbase are you running. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I have other build videos of this showing what you're asking about. The wheelbase is about 12.5" and it wasn't bad switching the arm around, just check for clearances and make adjustments as needed.
There’s that yellow body I asked about yesterday! Shouldn’t have to cut the chassis. That’s a design issue. Not a huge fan of running droop, but it definitely looks to have potential.
If you think its good, you should re watch the footage. I used this video to explain to my son why droop suspension doesn't work as well as sprung. I appreciate the content! Thanks
Hey EXO at what weight do you really take advantage of dual stage foams I took mine out I'm only around 7 lb and went to a medium single stage and it seems to be working better

Very cool build and that yellow is sick man good job great vids looking forward to seeing more of this deal

Awesome man, put up a video of it
@@ExocagedRC I will be!

Looks sick EXO!!! Next to orange yellow is my favorite color!!! My full size Jeep is the same color!!!🤘🤘🤘

Tinted windows would suit this rig 😎👍
a rear bumper is very important letting the body drag on the rocks will lead to it ripping
the Mustard truck hehe. Enjoying watching your videos.
Glad to have you
thing is bad ass !! Great Build EJ
Absolutely incredible build my brother I'm loving the yellow and it sounds like you've got turbine power 🤣😂🤣
That turned out really nice. I hope I didn't spoil things by mentioning it in the comments on yesterday's video.
We all knew it was coming 👍🏻💯
lol nah sometimes I leave things in the back to see if anyone sees them, sometimes its just by accident lol
Wow! Turned out awesome. Excellent work
What shocks are you running on that. It looks amazing sir
I took the sliders off my rig. Made the biggest difference ever out of all the mods Iv done
yeah I've seen them work great and then fail, I have pivoted off them to make lines and been hung up by them so its kind of a catch 22 thing
Nice job on the truck bro
You done some fine work my friend.
Thank you
Came out really nice man! Took the redact gen8 to whole nother level
Cool truck for sure ! 👍

Running sounds like a drive shaft is a difficult angle
Nothing is phased correctly on the Gen8, its like that from the factory
There’s that yellow body I asked about yesterday! Shouldn’t have to cut the chassis. That’s a design issue. Not a huge fan of running droop, but it definitely looks to have potential.
Cut it up! Yes. I'm still trying to get the courage to cut my framerails.
Was that on the hard foams. Nice job 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
yeah CI Racing foams, way too hard for this truck
Do you have any brass on that build? Would a little bit of brass down low help it stay more planted on the side hilling
Ugrc. Uncle Grampa RC. Lol 👍🏽🐒🇺🇸
LOL I asked what it was for and its Under Ground RC.
Exocaged RC I like mine better. Lol
If you think its good, you should re watch the footage. I used this video to explain to my son why droop suspension doesn't work as well as sprung. I appreciate the content! Thanks
Explain to me too please
Killed it Joe looks great!
Hey EXO at what weight do you really take advantage of dual stage foams I took mine out I'm only around 7 lb and went to a medium single stage and it seems to be working better
well I usually like to stay with the 4.5 and soft outer dual stages from CI, with the real light trucks I just use a stock single stage
@@ExocagedRC yeah that's what I've been looking into just ordered the crawler Innovation comp cut soft outers
I do not understand how to turn the servo horn backwards. Just hits alot. What adjustments can be made? Love your channel btw.
Yeah I had to clearance some stuff to make it work. I’ve since turned it around normal as it sits
@@ExocagedRC so I probably should just keep it normal I suppose.
Good job
I see you have the red cat portals any reason u didnt go with traxxas sport portals. I am looking into building a portal built truck is why i ask
Nm its a gen 8 new chassis looks nice
Can you do a vid on how you did the servo horn the other way?
Well basically I just flipped the arm around and checked for clearance.
Exocaged RC you got a link that servo arm by chance I tried flipping mine and it was hitting on the dif since I’m running a full droop setup line you
Did you get a chance to measure your wheelbase? On my PACK custom build I went 313mm and its dominating
love that body and are you going to bring out the cc01 again ?
The CC01 has been sold about 3 months ago, I needed the room for other projects, sorry
Exocaged RC that’s ok I think some of your other projects might be just a little cooler ;)
Have you done a Toyzuka body before?
Really eco? A hacksaw on carbon fiber?
I cringed the whole time. Luckily it was in fast motion! 🤯🤦♂️🤦♀️
HACKSAW 4 THE WIN 🤣😂🤣
lol well it makes less dust that way and cuts easy.
@@ExocagedRC
But being an ex/retired racer, THAT hurt! LOL!
What tires are those
Can't find this chassis , are they still available?!
Yeah he still makes them
Thinking about a trx4 with a creep body
Think no more come check out my channel 👍🏻💯
go for it! the much lighter, narrower body is simply better for comps. Sean that silverish Creep body truck is the TRX you're referring to?
@@ExocagedRC yessir it sure is sounds like you checked out my channel lol I think I'm blushing 😊
So painful that u cut off a 140 bucks chassis..😁 u can move the body slightly back.. I make my own rear bumper now to match the body width..
CHOP IT UP 💯💯💯
for a normal body no cutting would be required, this one just needed it to be cut.
Exocaged RC 😁 OCD..
What are the frame rails from?
UGRC makes them. Link is in the description
I wanna see the nasty done backwards! I bet it would be quite a bit more difficult
The nasty backdoor?... Lol
How much r ur stickers and do u have a Facebook group
Hey run the 3800kv on 6s mamba x
LOL thats a LOT of motor for this thing!
