RE: My Caldera 10e family
Yes it fit great,i may have to trim the front wheel well just a tad with the traxxas wheels and tire.You also were right all rear tires fit,so if anyone wants to upgrade to traxxas wheels and talons get 4 rear tires,works great.

RE: Indoor course
Ya know that not a bad idea.I was thinking about getting some prop rocks,like the kind the use in movies.Just build a rectangle like 3 feet wide buy 10feet long made of 2x6 pine boards and fill it with prop rocks.It would be great,light,clean,easy and will have a fresh pine sent.

RE: Apology owed......
He make some good points and bad.You can tell he is a hater,thats fine,he prolly has just cause.He got a redcat and it fell apart.Well i can say my trucks electronics are crap,but redcat did replace the radio as i asked,but i had to make alot of noise to get the to do it,calling,posting,contacting upper management,get help from Bret at CPE and then i got some action.He was kinda right by saying "why spend money on replacements,when you should spend it on hop ups parts" well thats exactly why i never sent the rest of my electronic in to redcat because why trade bad electronics for new bad ones,so i upgraded with hop ups.Like i have said many time.REDCAT IS A GREAT ENTRY LEVEL OPTION,but you must compare apples to apples not apples to oranges.You cant take the top of the line traxxas nitro and compare to the volvcano nitro,however you could compare it to the avalanche nitro,The thing is,the speed may be the same but the overall durability is not there yet for redcat. Hey Nitro,you alway have good information about rc,and always provide me with answers,but c'mon man, you will never talk down redcat cause your a dealer,it would be bad for business.Earlier you posted about him being mad that the caldera was faster then his slash,this may be true,but ironicly enough,i was just at a indoor track and saw first hand the caldera 10e beating up on traxxas slashes in speed,however my eariler point holds true,when the slash crashed hard in the wall it keeped going,when the caldera did it broke front wheels off.

RE: did I make a bad purchase or am I just unlucky or am I just a bad driver???
I would not replace a thing,i would warranty everything that broke through redcat warranty,thats why its there use it.I made the choice on my GP to just replace the parts i had problems with cuz i hate to wait+i upgraded the parts that were bad,but i should have sent all my faulty stuff in,others have and it was replaced.When there is warranty take advantage of it.

RE: did I make a bad purchase or am I just unlucky or am I just a bad driver???
How cold was it outside when the parts/body broke,with cheap plastic cold=brittle.You have to keep in mind,redcat has some cool cars/trucks it is very entry level at best.So to answer you question did you make a bad buy,NO you got what you pay for and dont take that as a bash,i have a redcat and it got me into the hobby,but it is what it is.You cant expect corvette quailty at a smart car price.However i must say they do stand behind there products they sell as far as warranty goes.

I have a few more question about the rs10 xt.Are the gear steel?Are they 2.2 wheels?What about the 2.5mm harden pins that rs10 always break,does the xt have them?One last question,do you need to run a external bec,and if so why?What do they do?Thanks

RE: I wanna buy a rock crawler.
Cool thanks for the info.The rs10xt is pretty nice,the radio /rx worries me.The exceed maxstone 8 is pretty sweet also,the parts concern i had is gone because after looking close at it,it pretty much the same as the redcat 1/8 super crawler.My big concern was the axles. Do you know anything about the exceed maxstone 8?If i was to get a 1/8 crawler what class would it compete,super?

RE: I wanna buy a rock crawler.
Do you think with the right mods on the rs10 xt you could compete with this truck.What the difference between the rs10 and the rs10xt.Does redcat make a roller version no electronics.

I wanna buy a rock crawler.
Ok,here the deal i want a rock crawler,i have about $200 to spend on one,which one do i get. Redcat rs10 exceed max stone 8 exceed maxtorque 1/8 integy rock crawler irock Quailty wise there all about the same in my book,entry level.I do like the radcat,lots of parts,good customer service,bad radio/rx.(not2.4g) Exceed both of them are huge which i like,both MOA,Parts seem hard to come by,like there always out of stock,which worries me.,2.4g tx/rx Integy i rock,looks awesome,but tons of bad reviews. I want to stay on a budget,so which one do you all think is the best choice?
