TheRcSaylors I thought I’ve been around almost from the beginning, but I do not remember “Wheelie Mania”. 🤔

[@Scallejas]

I love her enthusiasm! I’m actually convinced to get my own Kaiju monster truck! Thx

[@jasonbudd2950Jag]

Redcat knocked it out of the park. Luv the old school looks & the way it sits. Make a good Stunt type MT even with the long WBase. Goes well on 6s... 💪 👊 I bet there's room to gear it up taller too! TY for sharing guys 🙏

[@BillKisel]

Boy, this MT definitely has the look. The retro body and extremely aggressive looking tires do it for me. Assuming this truck proves to be tough (kinda looks like that already.😉) I think the pricing will have this MT from Redcat Racing eating into the sales of the bigger competitors. Nice pick Abby!

[@SteelBuckeye]

After a day of doom and gloom it is nice to finish up with the Saylors!

[@grim4this]

Ill probably get banned from youtube for saying this but I like that they end a lot of videos thanking God.

[@GearWorksRc]

I’ve gotta get one of these for my KZbin channel Redcat is just getting so much better.

[@rcpd3157]

Redcat has been stepping up. My husband and I love The Office BTW!

[@fpvclub7256]

The tires are amazing!. Hope they stay on! :D - Can the wheely bar lower down a bit?.. that might help.

[@jongonegone1262]

look at the paint on that body. daaaaam tan lines and all. oh yah nice truck.

[@sbron99]

I crashed my plane , wrecked my truck, sank my boat, ..... I’m gonna take up professional couch testing.

[@TheRcSaylors]

Lol that honestly sounds like fun!! Sign us up 😁👍⚓

[@Thecaptnjp]

A very fun video! I love your enthusiasm when you do speed tests! You guys have RC fun down pat, period!!!🤩👍👏 Stay safe!❤JP

[@williampearson6259]

Good job guys..just getting into this hobby and so far your the best channel!!!

[@mikefas5406]

Wow.. Love this one. I think 400 is a very fair price too. It's got the size and speed of the $700+ trucks. Would love. To see a bashing video from you guys on trucks like this. Speed is great but backflip it. 😉

[@agapitoskataxakis4783]

👍👍👍 You are a great couple!!! Everything you do is with excellence! Your dedication to the rc hobby is inspiring! Thank you!!!

[@TheRcSaylors]

That is extremely nice of you to say. Thank you! 👍😁😎⚓

[@joseCalderon1976]

The Kaiju is nice but it needs upgrades like a metal spur gear from losi that the RC community has figured out how to use on the Kaiju. I kept stripping the stock plastic spur gear on 4s and 6s.

[@rcpete7055]

Wheelie mania with the wheelie king was epic 😁 🎉 only seems like yesterday 🙃 awesome new truck Abbey 👍🤯

[@keithcerce8445]

Im happy you guys got 1 for yourselves. Love mine

[@HardysHQ]

Abby is Super Excited!

[@BryanRichardson1939]

I LOVE REDCAT

[@GP1281]

Wow, that truck has speed for a 4S, that's some crazy speed for 40 and 43 which equals to 64 & 69km on the 6S

[@morethanmeetstheeye7652]

I bought my three year old son a Kaiju and i have on 3s lipo ,good runs that truck dose on 3s.

[@O.L.D_RC]

Yay! Abby got a new rig!! Congrats, I know it's sweet to get something for yourself once in awhile. Can't wait to see you bash her.

[@RC4all]

The Kaiju is on our list 👍🏼 cool truck for sure

[@TheRcSaylors]

Have you seen our bashing video of it just released tonight?!

[@RC4all]

TheRcSaylors yes, my son and I just watched it. Looks like a great place to run an rc. I love the big air ramp #sendit

[@TheTootie52]

SWEET truck!! WHEELIE MANIA? I think your last one was in 2015!! Hint: watch your 2017 Arrma OUTCAST unboxing video! Do another one!! Thanks Saylors for the AWESOME SPEED TEST!! 💟👍😘

[@axle1976]

Wow great video can’t wait to see the next one!

[@littlebrowndude3460]

Always delighted to see you both🌹😇

[@sourpatchking8525]

Another cool video

[@rcdemonblood574]

I love my Kaiju it's my go to RC truck when all my others break the Kaiju keeps going They're pretty tough trucks

[@bobby-joesanchez2709]

I have gotten mine up to 68 miles an hour. There's a bunch of settings that you can get into on the esc that make it a little easier to get full throttle far is taking the punch down and then just gunning it

[@andrealston7475]

I love the fact y’all do it together great videos

[@n8nkqrp595]

No, make her fly inverted before she gets to thrash that thing out! I wanna see Abby fly upside down! Btw, that girl is trippin' in this vid. lol. Daaang :)

[@Pxe-qh3tj]

Love the video! Especially they way Abby was so excited❤️

[@smitheshn6637]

Kaiju is super cool.. best for the price 👍🏾

[@basquechutaz1979]

Try one of those long low to the ground wheelie bars used on drag racing to help achieve a higher top speed on that truck.

[@sirstefano4269]

Think Abby got the better end of the deal between the wendigo and this. great video saylors and I'm excited to see a bashing vid

[@No_remorris]

Of course I remember wheelie mania. Been around since almost the beginning.

[@stevewest7260]

Finally a worthy truck on your channel. I do love my Losi"s

[@HanmerToes]

Wheelie mania was the first video I watched kf yalls😂 the intros killed me😂😂😂

[@fpvclub7256]

high five for watching every single one of your vids. :D

[@TheRcSaylors]

Most epic high five in the world 🌎 🙌 😎 Boooomm!! Thunder ⛈ felt around the globe from that high five! 😎

[@wayneearley6826]

I love my kaiju and it is a tough ridiculous fast on 6s and more difficult to reach top speed on success because of the insane amount of power it will wheel stand from half throttle nearly to three-quarter throttle on 6s and hold it that way until you let go

[@2001Tauruswhite]

That truck is a beast on 6s! 4s is plenty for that kind of vehicle. If it was an on road vehicle (Limitless or Infraction) then 6s would be a hoot. I run my Limitless on 6s and it’s fun and kind of scary because it’s geared to go fast. Thank you for the speed run review

[@stevefisher2553]

Love the Dwight shirt!

[@FoxFaderWorld]

That's a beast!

[@islandrc-duke1972]

cool speed runs,awesome rc and power

[@Bitathisandthat]

Holy Hell!!!!...thhat truck MOVES MAN!!!....love it

[@jacqueslandry47]

You should try the ECX Temper gen2 crawler i think you might like it

[@mdfishman1959]

smaller tires and lower, stiffer suspension will help you achieve top speed without flipping

[@ScottMcLinden]

She doesn’t like talking...LMAO... poor Nate 😂 JK. You guys rock!!

[@doboy861]

There you go! REDCAT BABY! LOL. great video have fun, it does look like the arrma outcast. If I ever learn how to hit the ramps properly. I will have a lot more fun.

[@RCModSquad]

Very cool truck!

[@jimborghini2761]

Just got one for my son. Need to find a big parking lot now!!!

[@Bitathisandthat]

Wow Abby...you colour coded your dress with the blue cover on your new truck... looks good my friend.

[@rustyshackleford8846]

Awesome show as always guys, I'm pretty sure you both just sold me on that truck 👍

[@zombieapocalypsecherokee9224]

I'm glad I found your channel. I just got a 100$ 4X4 1:16 scale and its pretty insane I was super impressed with it want to get 1 like this now lol. Hey you might try putting bigger wheelie bars on the back to achieve full speed 😁✌

[@53rdcards]

Dont knock that dust cover, my arrma big rock didnt have it, and rocks get into it all the time, have had them bind up the steering, and one even lodged in and started grinding against the driveshaft. had to buy one aftermarket to prevent that.

[@blindj]

I love the look of this truck BUT considering Dean's connectors are only rated for a Max 60 amps why on earth do they come factory in this truck alongside 150 amp speed controller???

[@chadpollman7970]

Great question (and observation)! 👍 The manual depicts an ESC with two sets of leads (parallel). Given the 60A continuous/75A peak rating for Deans Ultra, that would allow a theoretical combined 120A/150A draw. I think the manual said 150A/950A for the ESC, so that leaves a comfortable safety margin. However, the product photos show a serial “Y” lead instead of parallel leads. Unless I’m having a brain fart, that configuration puts the entire load through each connector, functioning as a single lead. Therefore, the total load would be capped at 60A/75A, making the 150A ESC overkill. One would have to replace the connectors with higher-rated alternatives or, better yet, convert the leads to dual (parallel) leads to make use of the available headroom. My guess is that the vehicle can’t make effective use (under control, no imminent stress failure) of more than the 60A continuous allowed by the serial “Y” lead, so that configuration does the job and makes the design more flexible by allowing the user to install a pair of 2S or 3S batteries for 4S or 6S power, respectively. With parallel leads, either 4S/6S batteries or separate serial “Y” jumpers (and probably stacked batteries) are needed. If that is the case, the 150A ESC either offered the most attractive cost/benefit ratio or simply made for some really snazzy marketing fluff.

[@blindj]

@@chadpollman7970 I'm no electrician it's just from the video something I noticed. I know I've read quite a few times deans get hot easily if you're using more than 3S. These have just been user comments on Facebook. And in real life situations I'm sure amp loads don't peek out for a very long because it's not like you drive around at full throttle especially on such a high-powered RC. Great reply thanks. I've only hooked up car stereos and what not but it looks to me also like most of the power goes through one side and then piggybacks off the other for a short distance.

[@GeorgiaBulldogsUga]

In my opinion I have owned mine for a few months I love it, tough badger for sure, but 6s is so much more fun if you like backflips it pulls backflips so easy and it will standing flip on 6s

[@lylekehrer6159]

Kinda looks like a '80s Ranger, although straight on the grill looks different. Them scrapes on the roof does add some wear that goes along with the age looking of this truck.

[@karlp.9171]

Absolutely Awesome!

[@batsonelectronics]

put stiffer oil in the rear shocks. Set the ride height slightly higher in the rear than the front after that. You want to slow the rear compression. Between the body catching air and the suspension not setup, this is happening.

[@ilovejesus973]

Looks great .

[@J1mmy2023]

I really appreciate your videos and that nice blue Monster truck and you’re gonna speed it at the bus parking lot. And which controller do you use to make it go speed?

[@scottsample9626]

Oh, I remember wheelie mania! Lol what a powerhouse!

[@johnmiller4553]

THATS PRETTY KOOL MT.😀🤙🤙🤙🤙

[@NICHOLASRGLORIOSO]

Wow! That booger Cruises!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ricardodominguez6957]

Nate can you show us your 2020 rc collection?

[@ScottMcLinden]

Good Bless you, Congratulations on you new RC. One day I would lie to get one. I’m on disability and in a wheel most of the time. Disability on pays $800 a month. God bless you and be kind.

[@chriswatkins2334]

Isn't that the place where you guys had a car that went so fast you'd literally burnt off the tires from the wheels

[@kylekallies3381]

Red car makes some awesome RC’s

[@TheRcSaylors]

Yes Redcat does!! 👍😎⚓

[@jamesmarler3939]

Wow I like it awesome truck the faster the better, awesome job guys 👍👍

[@madhouse740]

Nice truck. Abbey loves to trash a 4wd. LOL

[@chaoticadventure]

Running 5s in the kaiju is absolutely perfect. Also tape the holes inside the wheels and vent the tires in at least 4 places for way less ballooning. And as I stated this truck loves 5s lipo power. It's the perfect voltage.

[@crazykidksyt2848]

Never heard of a 5s battery

[@me-rn7jx]

​@@crazykidksyt2848 wierd that it exists! im always even numbers haha or 1

[@crazykidksyt2848]

@@me-rn7jx 3s is probably the most popular odd lipo number, my Vorteks runs 3s

[@SoloVision42]

Hit 56.7 last wk running a 22t pinion!!!! It was scary fast and tires were full blown pizza cutters!

[@Bstiffbb1986]

Havent had very good luck with redcat.got volcano brushless monster truck and right out the box the steering arm hit servo when going forward..dodnt realize it right away now it cost 100 bucks in repair.

Late squad tonight stay safe out there all 😎😎😎😎⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️⚓️

[@will.dornon]

You too

[@zoominnboomin]

The Kaijus strongest attribute is its runtime. With 2 5200mah 3s lipos, I get almost an hour runtime.

[@surfside75]

So can I use 2 of my 3S 5000? Will it also run on 1 3S batt🤷

[@davidavey279]

Y’all are fun to watch!

[@Tomb13]

Wow that's insane! Beautifully done, love it. Definitely needs a little bit of nose weight, just a little. 😉😁👍

[@RobertSnopek]

Nice video one of the coolest looking trucks I've seen

[@DanJonesShow]

I wonder what it will be like driving it in fpv? I can't wait to try it 😜

[@everythingispose-able2543]

Aww yeah. Kaiju is my favorite. I've had one for several months and just bought a second one so I can mod one and keep one stock.

[@paulclancy2404]

You have other brands too?

[@everythingispose-able2543]

@@paulclancy2404 Yes. Check my channel. I'm new at this but have about 10 different vehicles and a new one coming Friday. Gen 8 Axe Edition crawler.

[@donharsh5469]

Awesome truck Abby and Nate 👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎❤️

[@Willrccars]

Move the wheelie bar to the lowest position and the shock to the outer most position for better stability. I love mine and since I have done that it handle so much better!!!

[@TheRcSaylors]

Very good advice! Thank you! 😁👍😎⚓ We will definitely do this. You even like this when off road bashing?

[@Willrccars]

TheRcSaylors I love the truck I believe people are sleeping on it in the stunt truck world especially now that traxxas released that Haas I believe people are not paying attention to this truck!

[@Willrccars]

TheRcSaylors Yes I even love it when bashing!

[@paulwoodcock6570]

A lot of truck and power for the money great video

[@obsidiannightwolfe13]

if you're looking for replacement tires for this or other vehicles including 1/10 scale, duratrax stakker tires have nearly identical pattern and are pretty amazing in the looser dirt. All I have to compare with are the caldera 10e stock tires, but the stakkers transformed the truck more than going from NiMh to 3s lipo did.

[@BrandonWatkins614]

Ok... I NEED ONE!!!

[@garretdykstra9015]

4s is perfect for that truck

[@Nlangkirby135]

I actually preordered my kaiju. I have used it a lot

[@TheRcSaylors]

I have a friend that did the same! He sorta helped convince us this was worth getting. Really glad to hear you like yours! Any tips?

[@Nlangkirby135]

TheRcSaylors... if there is steering issues... replace the servo horn with a metal 25t servo horn. Oh and also tighten the servo saver as well.

[@sammygonzalez7627]

Get a Hobbywing program card and reset the punch, I have mine set at 3... They come set really high, that's why you have to start slowly with the trigger to much punch setting

[@burn1gotbeats]

I’m glad you said that I don’t own one yet but that’s exactly what I have been thinking adjust the punch setting & maybe adding some belted tires for on road speed runs .

[@Hutch_moto]

Wow!Awesome!👍😁

Nate your a lucky man!!! Because not everybody's wife is so excited about rc cars. More the opposite I think? Great video been thinking bout getting the kaiju.

[@bobby-joesanchez2709]

I run mine off of nothing but success you just had to get used to it it's freaking amazingly fun what you get there and yes that thing is damn near indestructible I have cartwheel crashes for 20 feet or so and all I've broken was a body mount

[@astridsactionrc545]

That thing needs to hit a BMX track!

[@thisoldnew4544]

Nice Truck Abby!!!

[@stanbrewer6079]

Leave it to Abby to get the rock rolling, and skidding off to a great start. YEAH Abby. It's fast, but I think you should put a bit of weight up front to keep it grounded for a longer full throttle run. I think it could go faster. It definitely looks retro. Nate you got some great speed, & roof surfing in also.😊. Would it be to much to put in 2-- 4s. Great run. ⚓⚓👍💟💌👍⚓⚓.

[@therandomguy2380]

I had Jbl j3 speed the previously fastest speed record . I believe this 6s redact could beat 53 mile for sure. It’s really cool

[@MannyGunzz]

Yayyyyyy u finally got it...I luv mine

[@rc-fannl7364]

Clearly overpowered unless you put some weight on it. The suspension and the tires might also make it too bouncy, and thus more prone to get "airborne" when increasing the throttle.

[@fluellenmediabymarekusflue6320]

And yes you can bash on 6s. I do it regularly

[@georgejohnson2046]

Just found this channel. I’m in Grayson, KY!
