Just set one up for class 1 comps. Only other thing I did was overdrive/underdrive gears, and brass portals while changing them. I have the 10 scale fusion as well. Can't be beat IMHO. Rescats raising the bar!
Great vid, LOVE the wheel and tires. I have quite a few crawlers at this point and the Ascent 18 is hands down the BEST out of the box mini crawler you can buy. With no mods this thing kills everything stock for stock and even some trucks with mods get schooled by the Ascent 18. All I've done so far is a set of brass wheels and some Injora sticky tires (forget the name at the moment)...SMOKES half of what I have in the garage, most of which is much more modded than the Ascent. BEST $100 you can spend in the crawler world.
Same here. I have 14 1/24 - 1/18 scale crawlers and this think ranks high on the list for performance. out of the box compared to the all the others, hands down beats them all!!! Thanks for watching!
I just got mine and did the same battery mod, works great but it doesn't allow the body to clip all the way which makes the body come unlatched a lot unfortunately. have you had that problem with yours?
The SCX24 is not even close to as good as the Ascent-18 is out of the box. The FCX24s, like the Ascent-18, are really good out of the box. I moved the rx/esc to the front, removed the battery tray and 3D printed a 1965 Ford F100 body to replace that ugly Ascent-18 body. Added different wheels and tires and the Ascent-18 is amazing, but it was amazing out of the box as well. Great value for the price!
Sweet man ! Where in Az ya at ?
I’ve heard some say moving the battery up front won’t work because of body clearance or something. It looks just fine in your case. Hmmm.

Totally agree. Can't wait to see what they come out with next.
Man, I’ve been waiting for these to come back into stock forever
Right! I want a silver one now to complete my collection.

No, the battery sits low enough on ours that the body doesn't pop off.
Maybe you can heat up the body a little bit to bend it down a few millimeters in the front
Need one
You will love Ray! I am looking at getting the Silver one now so my son, Wife and I can battle it out on the backyard crawling course!

Yup, love these new options for the mini crawlers! Redcat did an amazing job with these ones!
Can you sell me a new body like the ford one you printed ?
