Redcat Ascent 18 Build Overview

Breaking down what I have done with my Redcat Ascent 18 up to this point.

I love the way you say dongle. Nice hands. They don’t look ashy.

NICE! I cut the whole top off of mine, just left the windshield and then I made my own Cage with Styrene tubing :) I also cut the front of the frame off and did the magnet mounts, I also moved the electronics around and switched it to the Injora MB100 with a Flysky Receiver :)

Wow, excellent build!! I like that you modded the stock body to make it work, instead of switching to an aftermarket one. It looks great!!

Holy schinto! We ain't got nothin' like that hobby store (Warehouse!) up here! Oh man!

And you are 💯 correct the stock sliders because they are tapered do not work with aftermarket chassis like Injora you can definitely get them to work by cutting the back of the sliders to make them flat so they sit flat against the chassis if you don’t they will go on but when you tighten the slider screws it warps the sliders. I just went ahead & got the Injora flat sliders for it I’m putting them on today. 👍

Big thanks for Reppin our channel on your truck!

[chuckowens]

How did you paint it ? Spray paint ? Would you be willing to a video on your painting ? Love the build

[Casitascrawlers]

Best use of the stock body I’ve seen I used the New Injora I 60 truck body on mine & the performance has been awesome I just installed the LCG Injora chassis & I have a few Injora Purple Viper motors coming they are back in stock now. Super nice build do you have any videos of it running?

[wingnutbert]

Wow! Dude, love that build! Rando bumped into your channel. Great build. The Ascent 18 body always kinda bugged me. The rocker panel section under the doors was just too wide compared to the overall cab height. But yours looks awesome! I really like the SCX24 scale size rigs, but this looks really great.
I'll have a look at your other vid's for sure!
Thanks!

Sweet build, looks really nice. Injora already makes links for the Ascent 18. Why use the TRX4M ones?

[MysticRiverRC]

Way to go! Awesome amount of work went into that build! Subbed, cheers!

[malcolmlester]

love your build. i know what you mean about the thickness on the body as i cut sections of mine out around the shocks etc and yeah very thick as also have the proline coyote body on it and it really thin. i used the meus links from the traxxas and you can use the front upper links but just need to cut down the link ends a bit to make it work and my drive shaft angle is spot on.

[rckings]

Good work! Some of our guys could use this video!!

[kevindavidson]
