Now, RTR brushless motor, 2.4 radio with lithium battery and charger for only $230? If anyone complains about this product at this price they are sincerely ignorant about R/C stuff. This is the best! You will not find any better R/C stuff for any less! !Me You Super Fun Happy Number One Go Fast Now! Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New Good for a beginner learning how to bash dont cost alot up front and pretty durable Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New At this price point this is an awesome little truck. I mean it's not a traxxas but it's not priced that way either. My biggest complaint so far is the wheels and tires. I didn't like the look, just kinda like they said ah that's good enough. Easy to remedy though I put a set of black chrome rustler wheels on it, they completely change the attitude of the truck. Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New Love my redcat Blackout it's super fast and Handel's like a dream wouldn't trade it for anything Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned I purchased for myself as a gift.

I've had it for a few weeks now. I've abused it pretty hard. Launched it off of concrete ramps at the skate park way over my head... Only issue I've had is a locknut worked its way loose on a shock and the mounting screws on the front and rear bumper have stripped or came out... But in all realty I've done things with this truck that probably shouldn't be done. Only issue I have is the reverse on mine.. Since day one sometimes it takes several pushes on the trigger before it gets out of breaking feature. Fun truck. I'd recommend it. Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New First let me say I have been into RC for about 30 years. Most of which is with RC cars. I picked this up as a early Christmas gift for a friend was very new to radio controlled cars. Anyway I told him he would probably break it on the first run. And he did. Good thing that parts are easy to get. This thing can get out of hand very fast if your a beginner. I would suggest a one over on this before actual run. Check all of the screws and nuts. Check the wheel camber and toe. Doing so will make this a bit more easy to handle. It lacks some of the little extras that some of your more higher end brands have that make them more durable. Not to say this in not durable because it is for the most part. Just dont do any crazy jumping with it that some of the other brands can handle. It will brea k sooner or latter. Most likely sooner then the latter. Upgrades are out there and this should be considered as parts break if its an option. I would like to point out that the chassis and battery mount are all the same one piece. So if a battery mount breaks then thats a new chassis you will be buying as well. If this happens you can still mount the battery by other means. There are a few other minor issued regarding durability. The bulkhead has no brace that connects the pins that hold the A-arms in place. This is a major breaking point. Look for a means to brace this area. If you drive it around and are fairly mindful as to how you bash it you will be fine and have lots of fun. I will say that it can handle a height of 6ft or so with a landing off a jump or flat face drop off. Just keep in mind that with even higher end RC cars all it takes is a bad landing and thats just a matter of time.

Many curb jumps and including one into a tree at full blast and the truck just drove away. I highly recommend this truck and brand if you're looking for a RTR kit. Absolutely fantastic. Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New Really good shocks. They were easy to "make work" on my Tamiya CC-01 truck. Gave me a considerable lift, and more droop. Good price, great product! The only con for me is the springs.... I don't know how HEAVY the truck these were made for IS, but on my lighter truck, they don't compress AT ALL - unless you push down by hand!! Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New well worth the $$ has to be the most bang for your buck! I've Ran it 5 times now. surprisingly fast for size!!, the only thing ya need to do is snug up the nuts and screws. Im looking to buy another Battery and quick charger. takes around 4hrs. with free charger that comes with it, and you get around 15 to 20min on a complete charge SUPER FUN!!. Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New I bought this as a gift, his first rc car, for my 12 year old son. I have common general knowledge about rc cars, so I knew what kind of specs I was looking for. The blackout had pretty solid reviews across many different retailer sites, and Redcat has a multitude of options and pretty large variety of models and variations amongst them. So here we are, Christmas day, it was just brought out for the first time and and the coil housing on the left suspension rod already snapped leaving it inoperable until the shocks are replaced. I am sorry but who the f*** uses plastic housings on shock absorbers? That is more disappointing than the fact that my son is s.o.l. for the time being. I expected better quality on one of the most important parts of great handling and performance. On the other han d I bought my younger son the Redcat Desert Sandstorm (which is equipped with aluminum coils) and it handles and performs like a beast even in our 8-12 inches of snow. Read full review (javascript:;) Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New Great car, first time using r/c cars. Runs great lots of power, battery lasts pretty long, the only issue is I got a new battery for it with a Banana plug in and it doesn't work, if you buy one get a upgraded battery and charger Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New I never write reviews but I have to say there are great people that work here. My son purchased his truck in July. He had some issues and Redcat replaced all parts. The truck continued to have other issues and I contacted VMInnovations and advised them of the issues we had with the truck. They did not hesitate to exchange my son’s truck. VMInnovations has a customer for life. Redcat trucks are affordable and fun. Thank you Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New The truck is very fast and is worth the money especially with its fast brushless motor. It is made of plastic screw in threads that strip out easily but can be replaced quite simply as well. All parts need to be ordered online as stores don't carry Redcat parts but that isn't a real problem. Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New The car itself was fantastic it took jumps like a champ, the issues are in the charger and the remote. The charger is really sketchy and the remote is kinda cheap, motor seems to have plenty of power with the little 2s, suspension is solid, the servo is good but needs a better servo saver( its a little sloppy)other than that its a great car for the price. Would hoghly recommend to anyone, throw about 100 extra bucks for a charger, a remote and a servo arm and its a perfect bashing car Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in Cars, Trucks & Motorcycles Trending price is based on prices over last 90 days.
