Your concern over the plastic transfer case gears can be remedied with a steel gear set from Redcat part #RER31799 $24.99. I had to go buy a 1/18 Capra after that video, now I gotta go buy one of these! Another great video my friend!

I paid $399 and put in about $100 extra in mods and even did a few free ones of my own. Im definitely not done but even with just the little bit ive done its a performer. I hated how the cab set forward of the skids and how far the front bumper stuck out so i found a way to move the cab back push the bumper in giving it a better approach angle. Plus it got rid of the body rub.

Redcat are a US base company, that got me into the hobby and I want them to do well. I really hope they take the profits from the Ascent and design some decent high pinion axles and better geometry for steering and suspension. The chunky, unrefined axles dont do any of thier crawlers any favours. Logan, would you recommend this over the Fordyce at its Amain sale price?

Good video as usual sir. I’m excited who answers the call, solid RTRs completely stock, next!?!? Great 👍🏻 job on this one Redcat! My opinion …. Vanquish with the Stance put other companies on notice that a solid rig can be had bone stock out of the box. Hopefully other options are next. The best way to grow this addiction/hobby is affordable solid performance RTRs. Nothing worse then helping someone into the RC world crawling world and they have to upgrade literally right out the box.

I just put a Fusion SE in my Capra, along with beadlocks (spent around $150 in total on what was a $400 RTR), and it certainly doesn’t have that body or accents or chassis. $400 for this setup is insane. I don’t have time for crawling lately but I’m highly considering grabbing one of these. They look great and perform very well from what I’ve seen.

Best bang for the buck for sure! So the only things that's missing is velcro on the side of the body and the battery and metal gear sometimes along the way. Links looks better than the rtr Stance, Vanquish should have put fusion se or at least a 1080. They must do a rtr Stance mid upgrade pack for links, drives shaft and combo. Or make the switch for the next gen rtr Stance. Part brand want to sell parts!
