Nice innovation, this Gen8 seems to be making some real interest for Redcat, it's my first crawler in a long time and the Scout body sold me but the underlying truck is great so far.

How about larger diameter (stronger) bumper mounts?

It's not a bad truck, just a few strange design decisions that need fixing. Aftermarket will take care of it as usual.

I really like the SSD parts that I have purchased for my other vehicles. This only means better things to come for the cat. I can't wait but I will. Thank you guys for your aftermarket support in this hobby.

New HD improved design link mounts will be released this week.

Brass portal covers and aluminum knuckles should follow in a few weeks.

What's wrong with the C hubs?

I generally dont to carbon copy parts in aluminum as others will do that anyway.
