The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: Redcat COE Custom Hauler Unboxing and Review

[@FeralRC]

The merch is pretty good. I get eye rolls from my wife every time I pour her a beer in the 10th Scale Garage pint glass and she stole my hoodie as well because it's "so soft" Buy their stuff, guys!

[@10thScaleGarage]

Dude! Thank you! I think we've sold less than a dozen of those Pint glasses, but they're so cool we HAD to get them.

[@FeralRC]

Basically buy 2 of everything, guys. It's so good your woman will steal it.

[@acecapone8086]

I have the lowrider by red cat and I have some quality issues that I may want to discuss with this Oscar guy.😂

[@GeorgiaBoyRC]

OG Redcat rippers! Finally getting the due respect from them! Hell yeah brothers!

[@bassmanmike5848]

I have had one for a while. Pretty much fully upgraded it. - lowering servos with a servo slower. - working winch - RC Patina Guy bed - RC Patina Guy swamp cooler - RC Patina Guy whitewalls - full light kit - bed lights - interior lights - brushless motor - motor sound module

[@10thScaleGarage]

Nice! We’ve got some stuff coming.

[@fuse557]

Redcat was my first crawler, Gen 8. Got me into crawling. My Redcat Ascent is right beside my VRD and SCX10 Pro.

[@10thScaleGarage]

Love the Gen 8! One of our friends got the ascent early this year and it seems pretty incredible

[@bigtrev71]

Can't wait to se what you all do to it. RC Patina Guy sales some good accessories for this, like the diamond plated trailer doors. Looks pretty cool. You guys rock.

[@10thScaleGarage]

We already ordered a slew of parts.

[@Storyracing387]

Love the DF reference!

[@hankkrendl8952]

Great video as always gentleman...

[@PC_TV_73]

That’s a big box. My wife is going to kill me lol I was on the fence of ordering one, but Amazon has them for $350 right now so I had to do it. I have some shorts up. I’ve been in a hobby since June 15 and it’s crazy as it sounds. I’ve picked up over 100 RC’s since then with probably another dozen arriving soon from pre-orders to a couple of good sales on Amazon this week. I call it my collection. Some people call it. Addiction may be a little of both, but I’m having a really good time doing it and that’s all that matters.

[@rcprescription]

Awesome video as always guys! 🤜🤛

[@10thScaleGarage]

Thank you so much

[@stevekeiron30]

It's definitely cool 😎 but I started off getting an LDRC 1889 Skyline, because I couldn't drive it to the drift event. I got the Hobby Plus CR18P 6X6 Arktos, fantastic truck and capable 😎

[@10thScaleGarage]

Very cool!

[@shuster1921]

You're installing the tire blocks backwards in the front, the ridges should face each other, and the car parked between them. And when you open the battery box, lift straight up and the lid will lift off to make it easy to get the battery in.

[@boduke9428]

I think this is the best looking RC vehicle made. I really wish it was 4wd so I could get one. I'm still searching for a 4wd chassis that gorgeous body would fit on. I was really hoping I could use my TRX6 for a donor chassis but it's too narrow. I don't even care about the hauler bed. I think a farm truck stake bed would look awesome. ..,.,..

[@10thScaleGarage]

I think an axial t case might fit….. you’d need a front axel though.

[@andy2more475]

Dragracer with a big wing!

[@DroneDocs]

A good HW sensored system, a more useable bed and lots of lights!

[@10thScaleGarage]

I like the way you think.

[@scaleworksRC]

That Monte body

[@10thScaleGarage]

Right?

[@JmanRc]

Ya there pretty cool looking would have been cool if the bed electronic moved up and down or something....

[@10thScaleGarage]

Soon.

[@stevejackson3564]

Make it look scale by adding a exhaust smoke kit that will come out the stacks.

[@10thScaleGarage]

Vape god.

[@RandalSaint]

@@10thScaleGaragewith that cotton candy smelling stuff, lol.

[@Ivan92UK]

Shes a great as a blank canvas as you say but the traxxas hauller is better for speed and off road. I bet she would make a good drift hauller though. Thanks for the video

[@10thScaleGarage]

I know! I’d love to try and get it slideways.

[@RCAddictsGarage]

You don't seem too impressed. Although it does make a nice shelf queen with the '64 on back. I say go for broke, brushless swap it, do all the mods & lights. Make it a true 10th Scale Garage build. Better hurry. The cops are coming. Someone called 5-0 because you're towing their Mercedes 👍🏾👊🏾✌🏾

[@10thScaleGarage]

Got parts in the mail!

[@RCAddictsGarage]

@@10thScaleGarage Great minds👍🏾👊🏾✌🏾

[@AllInRc1971]

Those came out shortly after Redcat stopped sucking. I have 18 Redcats and I feel they owe me money on the first four. And I will give them a year to deliver my 1/5th scale lowrider or they will go back in that category. Reading this, Oscar?

[@jgrc73]

The new radios are terrible

[@erickhart6159]

So in your opinion this vs traxxas hauler/flatbed?

[@10thScaleGarage]

Well the Traxxas is more expensive, but definitely more capable. You could actually take that thing trailing. It also comes with a winch and (I think) a light kit. I personally like the look of the Redcat. It has way more detail, it’s a licensed body and I think I like the slammed look over the jacked up look. It’s personal preference I suppose.

[@jgrc73]

@@10thScaleGarage 6 x 6 hauler can crawl rocks no other rc vehicle can, it's cool that way.

[@erickhart6159]

I have the first lowrider they did, I think I would rather spend this money on the newer body style lowrider. This is a beautiful cab and wheels.... Or buy the truck and take the ramp off and do a flat bed

[@10thScaleGarage]

They have a flat bed conversion.

[@erickhart6159]

Just looked it up and that is WAY better looking!

[@TecraTube]

redcat coming out with legit RC products. plastic axel though 🤨. its too slow too. 190E on it looks perfect

[@10thScaleGarage]

Yeah. I bet they’ll make some upgrades

[@jaymebaldridge3346]

Hate to say it but it makes the traxxas hauler look good, having ramps. Lights winch 6x6 2 speed lockable diffs and offroad ready. Just a bit lacking on details

[@WoolstyRC]

If they haven't upgraded the diff or do a stronger diff DONT do brushless 😅 it won't take it 🤙🏼

[@10thScaleGarage]

I wonder if it’s the same diff as the Gen 8

[@erickhart6159]

Take the bed off and make it a resto tow truck!

[@10thScaleGarage]

That would be awesome

[@WoodsUnknown]

If there customer support didn't suck as hard as it does, they wouldnt be too bad.

[@10thScaleGarage]

Luckily, customer service has been solid for me, even before I had a KZbin channel they were always good to me. I know experiences different though.

[@WoodsUnknown]

@@10thScaleGarage living in Canada is alot different then in the States

[@jgrc73]

their customer service is terrible everywhere. they forced me to buy a new transmission for a TC marksman off eBay (they wouldn't warranty it and don't carry it, because the parts support is terrible too )because they wouldn't warranty the one they sold me that made a super loud clicking noise because there was no visible defect I told them I'd spent thousands on their vehicles they couldn't give a rats ass, I bought the ascent because I kinda had to but I'm avoiding that brand going forward because of that experience. you should too! Are you reading this red cat customer service guy that exchanged a dozen emails with me I'm told you I would discourage purchasing red cats to everybody forever and I will 2 years now Do not buy, unless you like tearing apart brand new trucks paying for the parts yourself and fixing them not to mention being able to diagnose them correctly while they laughed to the bank with your money It sucks because they make great trucks at great prices but because of those great prices they're unreliable and because of their shit customerservice they are a crappy company, still. They should literally fire everyone in customer service and start fresh and I'm not even kidding, and if it's management forcing them not to warranty their own products that supposedly have a warranty but really don't they should fire themselves. when my treasured hobby dies yet again it'll be companies like this to thank, Greedy but no long-term support no support at all cutting edge but here today gone tomorrow and they will be if they dont change😂

[@WoodsUnknown]

@@jgrc73 couldnt agree with you more. I only had to buy one Redcat to get that reaction from them. They are a horrible company. You want good results buy from Axial, and you'll never have a problem.

[@andrew4403]

I left the video as soon as I heard the price of it. Ridiculous😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@10thScaleGarage]

Right? The Traxxas is even more expensive!
