Congratulations nice pick up & Welcome to the Marksmen family. 🎉 I’ve had mine since they came out & I love it. I’ve taken it out on 2hr. trail runs before & it it drives over everything. And yes the steering angle is not great but it’s not enough to take away the fun & there are a few things you can do to get a bit more angle out of it. I love the sound of it but I think it doesn’t get the credit it deserves for sure but it doesn’t matter because it’s just a fun rig to have & if you wanted to go out all day on a run it’s a reliable rig you can just grab & go have fun.
Excellent video!! I did see this deal and really considering picking up either the gen9 or marksmen. I was surprised to see a comes with a HW1080 and a Holmes Hobby motor. Both of which are great components. Hard to beat that.
Picked one up today. Went to check out the Scout on sale and saw this. I've been pretty pleased with ally Redcat trucks. The steering servo seems to be the one thing every video mentions as needing an instant upgrade. Looking forward to it! Great video, as always. (I gotta post a video of the Ridgerunner, it is actually a decent performer now!)
Yeah the servos are where they tend to save some money, this one isn't too bad but it tight spots it's going to struggle and since you need to adjust the dual rate pretty drastically we'll see how it holds up.
Just not a lot of upgrades for the parts that are on it. If you want to make upgrades you have to completely change the parts to something completely different instead of upgrading the parts

Yeah it had not trouble at all, looking forward to running it more and getting the real feel for it.

I think you'll love it, what you get for the sale price is a really good deal
I saw the sales.Nice score. Crawls great. 👍🏼
Yeah it's pretty capable!
For the price it's a good deal. Upgrades can always be done. Even necessary ones
Yeah for sure, it’s a steal at that price
That's an amazing deal! Great truck!

Hello,
Great video, super nice area! 👍
Greetings Seven🖖
Thanks for watching, Seven!
No doubt it's Nice for that price
For sure!
@@YARCWest be cool to see stock tires on those wheels , see how it works
Yeah I was just so tired of those wheels sitting around I had to use them. But the stock tires look much better on it. I’m sure they’re adequate
I love my Marksman
It’s pretty dang solid!
👍
Thanks for checking it out!
Where is it available at that discount?
It was available on the redcat site for the month of September
Just not a lot of upgrades for the parts that are on it. If you want to make upgrades you have to completely change the parts to something completely different instead of upgrading the parts
Yeah that’s a good point, outside of electronics it doesn’t seem there a ton of upgrades and I would like to upgrade the rear links
