| Gen7 sport
Hello all, New member here. I am purchasing the gen 7 sport sometime this week. This will be my first rig. I am just curious if most of the sport and pro parts are universal? I have watched several of the mods such as increased steering, flipping front and rear bumpers. |

What would a first good upgrade be? Servo, axles, etc?

That being said though, if you plan on playing rough, you'll sooner than later end up upgrading plastic diff gears, trans gears, and the dogbone axle shafts to metal and cv shafts. The upgrade to Pro is money well spent. Oh yeah, the steering servo arm is plastic either way, bump it just right and it blows to pieces. Get a metal one first up.

the key to making any redcat last is not to over power it there entry level rigs enjoy them for what they are now if your wanting to upgrade it your best bet is the narrow xr mod being a sport it has the plastic diff cups.and you can easyly drop a axial locker in there and your on your way it.will make it steer.better and it wont break like the redcat cvds the best upgrade would be to replace the axles outright with scx10ii axles and dont look back but thats not a cheap option the gen7 is still a axial clone atleast they start that way usualy they end up being all axial by the time your done with them |
