Redcat Gen9 Scout ESC Upgrade!

Описание: Redcat Gen9 International Scout gets a new ESC after I managed to blow the stock Hexfly 1040 from stupidity! Slow crawl on this scale trail truck just improved dramatically, so sometimes mistakes are good? I'll keep telling myself that. Hobbywing 1080 was a quick and easy upgrade that goes a long way to improve performance. As of this video, this truck has an insane discounted price! I would recommend this scale trail truck/ rc crawler for the current sale price, 100%. Not so sure about MSRP but I find that it is a fun and capable truck.

Truck Description
The gen9 includes a two speed transmission which provides loads of versatility over many different types of terrain. First gear gives the driver ultimate control over difficult obstacles, while second gear allows the driver to blast through trails at double the speed. Shifting gears is as easy as pressing a button on the included transmitter. The heavy duty transmission uses a 32P spur gear and a lockable adjustable slipper clutch. The pinion and spur gears are enclosed so they are kept safe from rocks and debris. The transmission, transfer case and portal axles all have MOD1 internal gears for superior strength and durability. The Gen9 also has a front mounted 550 size brushed motor and a divorced transfer case to put the weight where it’s needed.

We’ve gone overboard and installed a very powerful steering servo in the Gen9. The new Hexfly Torque-Spec coreless digital steering servo is mounted to a 1.5mm steel C-channel chassis and is designed specifically for trail crawling. Using the stock ESC, The Torque-Spec servo provides an impressive 25Kg of steering authority right out the box. If upgraded to an 8.4V BEC power system, this servo is capable of an amazing 42Kg of steering torque. That’s a lot of steering power. Unlike many RTR trail trucks on the market, even if you plan on replacing the power system one day, there is absolutely no need to upgrade this steering servo.

The Gen9 uses new portal axles along with a specially designed panhard bar to completely eliminate bump steer and axle sway. This allows the driver to take more precise lines and ultimately have more vehicle control. Portal axles provide more ground clearance without needing bigger tires. On the GEN9, much of the gear reduction happens inside the portal axles, which means less chassis torque twist than traditional axle shaft driven trail trucks. The new portal axles provide 54.5mm of ground clearance and include metal gear covers, metal wheel hexes, CNC machined spools and captured shock mounts.

These new universal style axles have a one piece front housing and they provide loads of steering and durability. They are much stronger than previous axle designs and may be the strongest axles we’ve built yet.

Tires are just one of those things that many hobbyists end up replacing on their new RTR trail trucks, but not on the Gen9. True to scale, licensed Interco SS M-16 tires and functional beadlock wheels pull the Gen9 through the toughest terrains. These tires have an aggressive tread pattern and are in a high grip compound, so they should perform exceptionally well on rocks and trails alike. These tires are right in the sweet spot of grippiness and squish, for crawling, and stability for faster paced trail riding.

Each of the M-16 tires is mounted to a beadlock rim which utilizes inner and outer aluminum beadlock rings for maximum strength and tire holding capability. The beadlocks have the addition of an interchangeable decorative plastic ring that fits over the functional metal beadlock ring, which provides the driver with the possibility of customizing the look of their wheel while maintaining maximum performance. We look forward to seeing all of the 3-D printed outer rings that will be showcased on customer’s social media posts.

The GEN9 makes you look good while conquering large obstacles and steep inclines. The stock configuration offers users 80mm of chassis ground clearance, a 63.5 degree approach angle and a 53 degree departure angle. This means the Gen9 may be completing obstacles while some of its competitors are getting hung up at the first incline. We’ve put in the work with this newly designed Gen9 trail truck so that you can let the Gen9 do the work for you. There are so many exciting features and an incredible attention to detail. We can’t wait to see this thing making its way through scale competitions. The Gen9 International Scout 800A is a great choice for anyone looking for a high performance trail truck with limitless potential directly out of the box.
