Redcat 79 Monte Carlo RC Lowrider Hopping!!

[@darrellrogers5703]

Well done this is the upgraded setup that I'll be doing on my MC i knew you would figure it out and pave the way for us awesome J 👌🏽

[@jevries]

👊🏼😎👍🏼 G body needs to hop!😁

[@vitodambra72]

@@jevries why did that make this not a hopper? The first one did right? I was looking to get one, think i might pass

[@jevries]

@@vitodambra72 Redcat wanted to do a more affordble RC Lowrider and decided to focus on making it a dancer car. I was hoping it would be easier to convert the chassis into hopper but it def takes some steps to make it perform good as a hopper.

[@vitodambra72]

@@jevries oh ok so there cheaper then the original ones that came out for $599? Also is this thing a true 1/10th scale ? Or smaller? Thanks for your time😉👍🏼💯

[@jonlaird5082]

That looks awesome. Can't wait to see how you dive into it. I would love to see you turn this into a competition lowrider dancer 😎👍

[@jevries]

Thanks Jon! Still debating if I'm going for a four Reefs 300 Alacritous setup or use three to make a dedicated hopper of the Monte Carlo 😎

[@jonlaird5082]

@@jevries I say dedicate the 64' to a hopper and then dedicate the monte with a 4 reef setup. This way you have a hopper and a dancer,lol.

once again Jevries works his wonders. thank you for sharing. i can't wait to try this on my Monte Carlo.

You nailed it once again jevries great job 👌🏻😎redcat should of had lef you collaborate with em on this Monte Carlo !!!

[@jevries]

Agreed!!👊🏼😎👍🏼

[@StraightUpRC]

I dig it! Cool to see a 4 corner control model aside the hopper. I would lover to see the 64 like this too though.

[@jevries]

Did you check the side to side swivel bar trick on the SixtyFour? Adding a forth servo imo doesn't add anything other than weight and power consumption.😎

[@StraightUpRC]

@@jevries Good points very true. I will have to look into that trick out. I have not seen it yet. Sounds useful. Thanks - excellent info as usual.

[@jevries]

@@StraightUpRC I have the video on my channel it def adds value to your Sixty Four. I have to say that turning the Monte Carlo into a single servo hopper is challening. A two Reefs 300 setup running a BEC and 3S Lipo battery is def easier.

[@joshsailer9523]

Nice job on that that’s a beautiful Monte Carlo great job on the work as well

[@24Krawlers]

Duuudee. Yess!! Now it’s a Gbody! Gotta make it hop! Looks so sick. I definitely hate that they didn’t make this one hop like the 64

[@jevries]

They wanted to make a dedicated RC dancer car at a lower price point since the Reefs servo on the SixtyFour takes a chunk out of the budget. I just wish it was easier for customizers to make it hop without doing any repositioning of parts and cutting.

[@XGODWORX]

You sir are the man... thank you for making it hop...

[@romdre81]

I was waiting for this lol. It looks good so far and I can't wait to see where you go with it👍

Nice to see your video I'm waiting till clear body come out so I can make my high school car it was a 1978 Monte Carlo

[@crawlingri]

looks great man!

[@ZoomyZoom77]

sweet deal, much cheaper. the new body looks nice too

[@jevries]

Well actually it's more expensive since the Reefs 300 Alacritous servo's are $120 a piece.

Love it, constantly innovating making the product better. #greatjob

Thanks!

Hello from V&b speed a new rc community channel. 64 was and still a blast 2 bounce around can't wait 2 add this one 2 my channel ✌👋🌍

[@jevries]

The Sixty Four is still my Fav but it's fun to turn the new Monte Carlo into a hopper.

[@TurboGaming86]

Amazing work bro love it 🤟🏼

[@EstablishedLowriders]

Thanks for sharing homie💯

[@redwolfrc1.14]

Ok cool bro. This is what I need to do to get my monte to bounce. I mean I want it to do a wheel stand bro. Before I make a first run video .thank you jevries. I hab no idea the monte came stock with no bounce.

Masterclass #3

[@vipbrigade]

A true legend 🙏🏼 I discovered your work back in 2013, and made a very basic (but functional) 1-25 scale hopping impala. Recently got inspired again, to try to do a build, and fabricate as MANY things as possible using old rc parts. I know you get hundreds of thousands of views.. but it would be an honor if you checked out my 1/10 K5 Blazer build. I used an Axial scx-10 as my starting point. It’s the most recent video on my list. Thanks for all the inspiration!

Love it! I just ordered my MC today question which shocks would you recommend to upgrade it with? what else would I have to buy to make it hop like this besides the servos and the back plates

[@5l3pt]

im sorry but do you know what type of servos he has in the front? the black ones. and what type of back plates would i need

[@B-Myls]

That's Tight!

[@slob928]

i recently got my monte carlo and added 2 new powerhobby 209mg servos. i also have programmer to up the power and stuff but it still doesn’t hop. what do i need to change or add? is the battery i need to replace? my monte carlo is fully stock except the servos.

[@JoseAlvarado-du2bu]

So I have a Monte Carlo can u give me a list. Of things to make it hop really need help🙏🏼

[@5l3pt]

how did you get it to hop? i have a 79 mc and want it to hop.

Hell yeah!!!

[@rmoreno9794]

What are best front shocks tu use for hoping any recommendations

[@damianrimola8036]

Did you have to program the REEFS 300 Servos after installation?

[@avarz2889]

Could it hop just by moving the battery to the back and adding some weights?

[@jevries]

I'm afraid it doesn't do a great job...I wish the layout on this chassis was different.

[@detailuk750]

There’s no where to buy these in the uk

[@meefthepotatoe4363]

You mean to tell me that the redcat Monte Carlo factory out the box can hop !? as do I have to upgraded something ?

What kind of shock are you going to switch them. Like the way hops

[@jevries]

Thanks! I'm going to create my own shocks using parts of cheap alu shocks and coil springs I bought on Aliexpress.

[@4255Lee]

When you put the weight in the back did it help on the hopping in the front

[@jevries]

Yes, 100%! I got it working with as little weight as possible now.

[@4255Lee]

So apart upgrade all my servos it will hop like yours

[@4255Lee]

Typo upgrade all my servos

[@tunercars3]

how much to get one modded like this with sunroof

[@TW39]

Hi is it the speed and the torque off the servo that makes it hop

[@jevries]

Yes. That's why I had my own SuperPump and GatePump servo's custom made.

[@southwestboystv2393]

Where did you get those wheels

[@jevries]

I make them www.jevries.com

[@KingdomFreedomMinistries]

So these don't hop when you purchase them? We have to modify them ourselves?

The 79 Monte Carlo has a dancing chassis design and can't hop from the box.

The body on mine doesn’t sit all the way down, does is need modifications or is that a defect?

[@jevries]

You mean the body on the chassis or the body on the ground?

[@AlexGarcia-di7mf]

It was on the chassis where the body wasn’t fully covering it. I figured it out , I cut the front styrofoam in half and bolted the magnet directly to it without the plastic holder . Also changed the rear shockes to give it more hight lol. Those that it comes with are tiny.

Do you have to use lipo battery
