[@kevinbreaker2683]

I always like your videos.They're so informational.You learn stuff from it

[@RcDungeon]

Thanks Kevin I do try as I'm always learning in the hobby which is another reason why I love this hobby so much. Really appreciate you always taking the time to comment as well thank you again

[@NEO-RC]

That was a great long term review! 💯 agree. It’s a great budget crawler, love mine.

[@RcDungeon]

@@NEO-RC Thanks Neo 👊

[@NEO-RC]

@ thank you for shoutout 👊

[@RcDungeon]

@NEO-RC very welcome 👊

[@jackawaki]

i personally watch all you videos and i would love to see the budget build stuff . The only 2 youtubers i watch all there videos are you and crawler canyon . i never miss a video .

[@RcDungeon]

@@jackawaki now that means a lot to me for real! I'll keep doing stuff, I'll have that budget build clone sherpa starting soon, I'll probably do in a series once I figure out the exact direction I want to go with it lol! I may have a new rig coming soon as well. I super appreciate the kinds words Rc brother

[@jackawaki]

@ awesome man I can’t wait 😝 really I do appreciate someone who does this stuff on a budget. I have the raw 500 and I have the reefs triple 5 and blah blah my ascent is still on the stock servo lol if it’s good it’s good idc who makes it . Idk maybe it’s just me I’m not a snob 🤣🤣

[@RcDungeon]

@jackawaki same here man, I see all these guys gotta have Reefs that or shift this if not your not doing the hobby right I just crack up half that crap is rebadged Chinese same stuff lol!

[@topqualityfi8216]

​@@RcDungeontry to stay much stock parts as possible, i mean please dont instantly buy some 200e axles etc u know

Redcat Rant & Review! I've driven a few and don't understand the flak people give to Redcat. I'd like an Accent Fusion, but I still want a green Gen8 V2 more. Some day I'll get a Redcat. According to my money lender/wife, I have to get my Phoenix on the trail first.😂 FYI: I like "small, crappy channels"(sub 10k subscribers), they're more honest. You, Gerry, and Mr. Canyon entertain & inform me the most.

[@RcDungeon]

@@TyJoe_N_MattyMoe Thanks Rc brother 👊

[@ChrisSnider-k7u]

I have the same ascent running the hobby wing motor esc combo, swapping the chassie to the fusion carbon, and recently installed the direct drive system, removing the slipper clutch and absolutely love it

[@RcDungeon]

@@DoubleG2112 heck ya!!! Good to hear you are enjoying the Ascent mine has been swapped to the 1200Se system great rigs for a budget

[@jackawaki]

So I 3d printed my own link riser and I don’t care what anyone say my torque twist is gone . I did the same on my fusion and again no more twist . And i absolutely suggest picking up a fusion . People only give them shit cause there not 500 like my traxxas smh

[@RcDungeon]

@@jackawaki I completely agree!!!! I've watched Roadside Rc and Exo Caged crap on risers 😆 🤣. I'm like am I the only one that can see a difference. But again I'm on stock chassis Roadside was using that DSM carbon fiber chassis and I'm pretty sure they designed the link configuration to reduce the Torque twist with link placement but I could be wrong, I'm not a big dog in the KZbin world so I don't have that kind of experience

[@jackawaki]

@@RcDungeon I’m on stock as well . I hate how much greef redcat gets man even if you punch up above the price hard to beat a fusion.

[@jackawaki]

I have the of ascent and I have the fusion love them both man . With a little mods absolutely a killer rig

[@RcDungeon]

@@jackawaki completely agree, I've just not had my hands on the Fusion yet, thanks for commenting your experiences Rc brother

[@jackawaki]

@@RcDungeon btw I did break my carbon fiber chassis on my fusion but redcat sent me a new no questions asked

[@RcDungeon]

@jackawaki ok I thought I had heard of a few people breaking them

[@leoncottrill3254]

That Redcat Ascent has been one tuff truck that is for sure. I would like to try a fusion pro

[@snakehips12345]

Sorry I didn't catch your name, but I'll just call you Mr. Dungeon; I also watch most of your videos along with Mr Canyon's. And always appreciate your honest opinion on this stuff. I've found over the years that most people who praise X brand as their favorite can never objectively justify why it's better. Anyway, keep it up and thank you.

[@RcDungeon]

Wow thank you much appreciated, I always give an honest opinion everyone spends hard earned 💰 on this stuff

[@staysmallrc]

The body has always looked to me like they expected people to swap it. Maybe a half-cage to dress up the rear? I'm a Redcat fan because of my budget, and they have killer sales if timed right 😆. For a trail guy, they're great for me! Falling that far is catastrophic for anything not made of rubber! Us old guys don't fair well either!😅

[@RcDungeon]

@@staysmallrc its more of just a light weight purpose comp style body more than anything I think that's what they were going for. They definitely look good done up, I was just going for pure performance to see what I could squeeze from it cheaply lol! And fo sho that would be crippling for me lol! Thanks for watching stay small!

[@DubVredneck]

Yeah i broke the end link on Turtle-Ator hitting a driveway drain head on @ full tilt but didn't bend link or nuttin (metal)

[@RcDungeon]

Yah this rig fell probably 30-35 foot and landed rear chassis side down directly on the lower rock bridge on the coarse

[@DubVredneck]

@ yeah i think you was telling me about that

[@gerrysoldguyreview]

Like me a review! I want to get the fusion and gen 9!

[@RcDungeon]

@@gerrysoldguyreview I've dove into just building for performance now, even the vanquish Stance I wasn't super impressed with. Actually I'd buy the Fusion before I buy the stance. Thanks for watching Gerry

[@douglasperry1226]

Keep it budget brother! I feel that why spend more when a budget part does the same thing.

[@RcDungeon]

Yes exactly Rc brother I agree

[@topqualityfi8216]

@rcdungeon , how about small series, 1/10 trail/crawler/offroad rc build lets say under 580e budget?

[@topqualityfi8216]

Ahh never mind,forgot in your country pricing you could buy that truck,then use same amount on upgrades😮

[@RcDungeon]

@@topqualityfi8216 yah we here don't know how lucky we are when it comes to product pricing

Not sure what’s going on with YT this week, but this is the second channel that it has apparently unsubscribed me from. I know I have been subbed for a while, but when this video popped up and I clicked on it, the Subscribe button was lit up like I never hit it. Very odd, that’s the second time that’s happened this week. Kinda makes me wonder how many other channels I’ve been unknowingly unsubscribing from. Something to keep an eye out for.

[@RcDungeon]

@@DRZ-RC Thanks for letting me know Rc brother, I've had a few others message me and say the same thing. KZbin I've had pull views from a few of my videos as well. Us smaller channels struggle enough as is

[@DRZ-RC]

@ right, the struggle is real. Definitely makes me wonder how many other smaller channels I may never see again if I’ve been unknowingly unsubscribed from. Just plum crazy.

[@RcDungeon]

@DRZ-RC well I appreciate you letting me know. I'll mention it in my next bench video

[@DRZ-RC]

@ no problem man. Keep on keeping on!
