How’s it going Yep ? I’ve got a Scx24 that I tried to copy your VW build with and would like to send it to you for your opinion. I bought the playmobile car and transformed it the best I could following some of your videos. Although I did a few things differently I think you will like it. It’s my tribute build. All it’s missing is a Yep sticker.
@@24Yepp I actually have a video on my channel that I kinda did an older version of you I’ve been told. lol please don’t get offended. I just thought it would be funny.
Semi flat black with à purple and peach fade would be sick instead of the monster energy green. This series is the best. Want to send mine after tuning but its my only truck. Turn around time on the roast ,test, send back is my determaining factor. Keep up these vids....love em🤘
This is a rad angle to take on RC videos. Kooks may take offense, but this is a great way to learn about the hurdles average builders run into, and you do actually give solid advice on over coming these issues. Even seen you 3D print custom stuff to help. I like that you don’t suck, please continue
Another great review of someones pride and joy build . That rock shelf was the perfect natural obstacle .like it was eroded by mother nature just for the purpose of rock crawling small truck . 👍 PEACE!
Great to see this being done 🤘we where going to do this to see how other rigs handle our insane indoor minicrawler course, but being in the UK, posting rigs would be silly wonga and replicating well my budget does stretch that far 😂😂😂😂 great job dude 🤘
i love your series of roast em brother.. i too have a redcat slightly built.. rims links and driveshaft upgraded only.. i had the issue with the shocks opening up as well and whet i have done was taken out the springs and ran a thicker oil to deduce the dampening of the suspension.. p.s. keep this series going
I’m sure terrain has something to do with it but what are the benefits of a heavy rig I know in 1:10 scale it can help keep it planted & the tires digging in. It seems like when the mini crawlers are to heavy it’s harder for the back wheels to get up really steep rocks once up it s ok but gets up seems like a lot more work but that is a wide open subject. I’d like to see a heavy rig & a light rig taking the same lines to get a good look. And you are correct I’ve seen the Redcat perform with only a few upgrades pretty well. One of the bad things is the chassis hits on one of the supports limiting its travel. Overall for the price it’s pretty good.
Needs woody + buzz in the front seats lego'd out. Its a "4x4 RC", haha 😂 Smart one this guy is, aside from like you said... she's a little heavy..i dig it!
I think if you went back to the plastic axle in the back and checked the weight front to back you might be able to take some weight off the front to help lighten it up. Another thing you could do is go with a smaller battery to help with weight
I love that you all in on this new series bringing us the bangers man more more more also people that don’t have ig how can we get info to maybe send a rig to u been watching a while and ur channel is just so dif i appreciate what u do friend 🙏🍻
The color combo doesn't work unless you are a comic book villain, and I would agree that it didn't seem much different than the stock one. That's not necessarily a bad thing but it needs some more tuning and adjusting. Venting the tires with the right flubs can make a difference, and limiting the travel can drastically change how a rig works. It looks like a nice build that needs to be tuned and tweaked to get it to work as well as it should.
might need low range geara because ive tried the nano bam, venom, micro komodo on my ascent 18 with python pro, lizard pro, lizard v2 rockwolf and still does that weird motor stutter on very slow crawl. I thought it was a FOC thing but EVERY brushless motor has done that. I currently have my ascent 18 with a injora mb100 and meus racing 102 turn brushed motor.

I was wondering why you didn’t like how the Stock Redcat performed. Did you not run it long? I do think applying all of the after market upgrades that can be done on these would add too much weight like you mentioned. Another thing that you mentioned that seems correct is the front susp has way too much drop. The over all weight and front suspension keep this from being a weapon on the rocks. I have this truck in stock form with heavier wheels and it’s impressive to say the least. Love your videos dude. I’ll bet some grocery or drug store is looking for their missing hand basket. Looks like you did a great job at decoying that as well. 👍🏻😂 Any how keep up the great content dude! Me likee!🙌😜
I believe this weight is around the max limit of that venom motor. I have the same motor and I added weight and the motor developed a similar issue with slight stuttering under decent load. My truck was heavy before around 600g but the added weight to 700-800g I think finally pushed it over the limit. Also do you know anywhere that has Jconcepts ruptures in stock I want those tires but I havent been able to buy them any where for months.
The stock redcat shit on all my built rigs for 120 there rilly Capable out of the box but i hate the shock cups links and Weird size link builts and uther stuff
Dude, your gonna cost me a fortune in new trucks at this rate. Someone needs to be keep a wifey score on all the trucks. It good that you shout out all the creators too, helps us all find niche builders for random parts ❤ loving the series so far
Man… this one is bad😂 sometimes all the brass isn’t the answer, bet if he ditched metal rear axle and weights in the rear, and messed with his link geometry making links parallel instead of diving up like how they are. This thing would slay way harder! But love the vids bro keep em comin🤙🏽 kinda wanna send you one of my lil slayers 😈

I love my Redcat Ascent 18...but the ESC noise is so bad lol. My wife won't let me play inside, she can hear it across the house. I am going to have to invest in that Furitek ESC/motor it's so quiet, then there's the gear noise from the steal gears but not much can be done there.
The only sweet vehicle in this video was the prius. I miss my 2016 prius. I lost it to a deer 😥 The newest model looks so darn good. Too bad is not as spacious as my 2016 was. My gf and I we both could fit in the back of it and sleep there, and she's 6'1
Well with no body on the “stock” one. Which has aftermarket wheels on it, so not stock. It will do significantly better then with the body on jt. I’d be interested in an apples to apples comparison
@@FYRC15 they are definitely worth it just go to redcat and click on the ascent 18 and scroll down to parts and they will be on one of the 5-6 pages of parts

Rad redcat! And yes some limit straps will make a massive improvement. Did you run into or do you know if the owner ran into any cogging issues with the venom setup? ive been battling with cogging on mine and cant find a proper tune or solution.
it did look like it was hesitating on those climbs which i noticed cuz i just ordered a cr18p EVO PRo w the same venom and lizard pro combo. fingers crossed no cogging
Glad Yep is showcasing this platform. The A18 shouldn’t be slept on. Way better than 4M imho. Maybe I’ll send you mine when I’m finally done tweaking it 🫡

In their stock form I have found the ascent to be the most capable and is the least expensive. Even the stock tires are oddly good.

The drive shafts aren't clocked, synced, phased, whatever you want to call it. You get vibration like that
Def my favorite videos! you have grown on me 24yep haha. I’m tempted to get a redcat now
Thank you! You have grown on me too...
The weird stuttering is from the venom motor. Its hates going slow and it hates heavy rigs.
