Were you thinking OTA steering with the knuckle arms facing forward like stock or facing rear? Also are you running stock knucles or aluminum?

The first thing we are going to be working on is the servo mount and we should have that done sometime this week and hopefully on the web site.

By having a heavy duty servo mount we will have the start of the steering kit and be able to work out some of the bugs on getting a High Steer Kit or OTA kit. To start with we will probably incorporate the CKRC aluminum High Steer Knuckles and make the steering as high as possible but we are still unsure of where the price will come in. We should have a kit together though by early to mid may at the latest.
 
Im running stock steering right now. I tried to put the linkage behind the axle but with axel mounted shocks and bent links it didnt happen. I plan to get the ckrc high steer knuckles but I want to wait to see the OTA steering kit first. I'm also running a 6cell 7.2 saddle pack battery which I am currently makeing some 3cell fixtures to put 3 of the cells on the front axel and 3 of the cells on the back axle between the gear mesh houseing and the wheel (on the side of the axel wear the servo is not located). I'm doing this to try it out and see if it will lower the weight and I'm also thinking of running the new beetlejuice chassis . I figure the cells and fixtures will get in the way of a OTA steer, so I'll probably go lipo soon. Once I finish the fixtures I will make a thread and post pics. Having a milling machine at your desposal is awesome.

We are actually ordering in some aluminum steering knuckles right now from RC4wd to make the high steer kit around and we will be making a kit that is complete with the knuckles and all the steering links included.

As far as the battery configuration is concerned with a high steer kit you might be able to use your 3 cell front pack but lipo would definately be the trick setup. We are making the servo mount today to hold the servo in a different way and see if we can make a configuration all high and tight.

But for now we are definately going to start with the high steer kit and work towards a OTA steering as soon as we can.

And that is definately the only way to fly "thumbsup" We love having our own machine shop to make anything we can dream up.
 
well i kept my rs10 stock for as long as possible and on day 2 of wheeling i broke the bat wing lmao. the bat wing is officially a pos design lol. i guess i will have to make an eliminator till i can get my parts ordered from zno next week lol.
 
I heard that there might be some updates to the big boy kit. For instance a pre-drilled pinion gear that will fit a 540 motor, or some other housing reinforcement. I was wanting to check in on that as I plan to order the kit soon but wanted to check if there might be any updates before I purchase. Thanks.

We are working on some kits that will involve the Big Boy Kits but the website is changing at the same time so we are trying to do it all at once and have a kick ass new site with new products, kits, and RTR Comp Crawlers. The new site and products we have layed out and we are working on it as we can but it may be awhile before we launch it.

If you have an idea of a kit you would like or some products you would like to buy together give us a call and we will get a package put together for you and make sure you get a break on the parts. There are a lot of parts in our shop that we dont have on the website yet as well so we might be able to help you out more than you know. "thumbsup"
 
What about a offering a combo kit with the big boy kit, steel differentials gears, hardened steel pin, aluminum axles, steel pinion with 1/8" center hole to fit the 540's. It seems that if someones going to purchase the big boy kit and put 540's their going to have to upgrade all the drivetrain to hardened steel/aluminum/etc because it will just brake due to the additional torque. Also look into offering a set of links that can fit with the stock chassis that can mount to the axles and clear the 540's. That would be awesome. A kit that includes all of that fulfill all redcat owners dreams.
 
wheels any of them come ie 23m.m spinedal?

sorry gt carried away sometimes in subject line.

We are putting together 4 different kits right now from mild to insane for the Redcat inthusiasts but we wont be putting them on the old site so it might be a little while before we are able to have them available on the internet. In the mean time I encourage everyone to email or call us and we can work on kits to take care of all your crawling needs.

Sorry no wheels with 23mm spindles at this time. I'm guessing that is for the Redcat Super Crawler and we haven't ventured into carrying parts for that yet.
 
Cant wait to see the new products.

Its awesome that you guys are focusing on those of us who were frugal and went with the redcat.

Still seems like a pretty capable rig with the right modifications!

Thanks ZNO

Justin
