Yeah, very funny how everyone complains and/ or tries to put a price on this but each production is selling out along with dealers having a hard time even getting some for retail. You get what you pay for and entertainment these days is damn near priceless.
When the front is lifted, the wheels are sitting at an angle if you look at them from the front of the car. This is actually accurate to what happens when a real lowrider is lifted in the front. This thing is impressive. Go Jevries!
that is actually incorrect. firstly the "tie rods" are incorrectly angled causing bad toe in. there is a toe-in kit provided to correct it a little. as far as butterflied wheels, that is built on purpose for real cars because someone did it years ago and now everyone does it. this RC lifts higher in the front than a real car would, so it's ridiculous. I've been building lowriders for 30 years and butterflied wheels is completely unnecessary. cars will hop just as high with standard suspension and besides that it just looks stupid. I'm building mine like I would a real car
@@caddi70 😂 what? You do not build real cars. A arms are used to lift the front. How else would you lift it?
At about 13:24 when he turned the car on and it lifted up by itself, and he threw his hands up and said "Oh Shxt!!!"🤣🤣🤣Did it for me, i literally died💀💀💀⚰️⚰️⚰️and came back 💯💯💯
That HAS to be the best box in all of RC.
I can't afford it but I'm glad you share this exciting moment with us, Francis!
It's not worth 600$ in my opinion. I would expect more realistic details. Opening doors. Hood etc. Not broken pieces out of the box. Cheap plastic body and chassis. It literally looks like it cost 40$ to make
@@123321jasen supply and demand my friend
Needs a scale chain steering wheel and scale Cheech & Chong figurines?
Yes
For real!👋😆👍
The car looks like penguin when it flapps those front wheels... Regardless of whether you like low riders or not, 600 USD is a lot of money. In return you get a defective car with loose components and a broken bumper. In order for the customer to accept something like that, you have to work with scarcity. Well done Redcat! You have managed to reach the price regions of Traxxas without achieving the quality level. For 600USD you would expect a perfect model straight out of the box, with lights and all the tuning stuff like underfloor lighting and so on. Francis, I take my hat off to you for putting up with this type of quality and still making a positive review of it.
I like the design of the car, but the way it looks on the technical side, $ 300 would have been enough. A version would be nice, that would have come without this low-rider garbage and a soft chassis that corresponds to the classic American street cruiser for a price around 200 USD. I couldn't have said no to that.
And @Redcat: A light set has to cost at least 100 USD for a handful of LEDs and a few resistors, you still have to learn that from Traxxas. This is how you turn the equivalent of 1 - 2 dollars into real money again. Well, you'll probably sell a lot of bumpers for that.
Best regards from Germany, Thomas
Ya.the bumpers brake way fast.body 2 buy separately is 120.oo us bumpers sold separately
I kinda expect someone who has one of the coolest International Scout II's on CZcams to know a little more about Redcat but whatever, still a great channel.
When you turned it on and then the " OH SHIT MOMENT "! I was laughing my ass off !!! Cool video. I feel it's over priced myself. But , people must love it according to the sales and availability. 👍
Yup..i was lucky got one b4 they ran out 1st time..price very high but worth it
LOL, when you said, so you turn it on - OH SHIT . That was so hilarious
Stay strong Francis! Props to Redcat or thier marketing dept. to figure out in advance that this kit would flip the fever switch in all the rc scale/gadget lovers to get them to want this thing at any cost!Yes i too want one! Hobby money is funny munny.Keep flipping those switches i love it!
Thank you very much for this review! Appreciate it!
It is the first of it's kind and for Redcat to bring this product to the market, stepping into unknown territory was a risky and costly undertaking. With every new developed product there will be things that need to be improved on and I'm sure they will be taken care of.
For us die hard Lowriders it's a dream come true to be able to own this collectors item that's not only is cool to play with but also looks good in your living room. The communty is growing fast and the creativity is going through the roof with peope cutting trunks, hoods, doors, adding audio systems, lights, hydro setups, custom interiors, etc.
Coming from the Lowrider communty I knew on forehand the demand would be there, no doubts at all. The question was if the RC community would go for such an out of the box, unconvential product. Knowing a bit of Lowrider history I was sceptic about it because a lowrider car in the first place is a traditional show car, not necessarely a performance car. It sits on wheels that are too small for such a big car, it's going low and slow and does "acrobatic" moves.
Redcat and I did our best promoting the product to the best of our abillity and are still blown away by the response and sales. It is way more than we expected.
To me as an independent artist, creating RC Lowrider for so many years I'm happy that Redcat reached out to me and aksed me to work on this product as it is the first product of it's kind that pays respect to the Lowrider community.
I think it's safe to say that the RC Lowrider is here to stay adding a new genre to the RC scene.
Traxxas is in the works with their own can't wait to see what they come out with.
@@ROMPE_NALGAS_24-7 Redcat and I showed there's a market for these vehicles the rest will follow that's how it goes.
@@jevries ya I'd rather see redcat be the leader in the lowrider category. The only problem i have is the poor build quality, cheap bumpers they used and packaging my bumpers came broken front and back. Its not a big deal but when your spending 600$ I think the packaging 🤔 could have been better.
@@ROMPE_NALGAS_24-7 I think Redcat def learned from this first run of RC lowriders and will improve on the quality of the bumpers and other parts.
I have to say I received 6 cars on two seperate UPS overseas shipments and they were all in one piece. I've seen footage on FB where UPS delivery guys throw/ drop the RC Lowriders over fences. Bizare.
@@ROMPE_NALGAS_24-7 By the way where did you find the info Traxxas working on a RC Lowrider? I remember reading it last week somewhere but can't recall where.
I need this too now damn I got into legos 1:1 cars rc wood working D&D and sim racing all in one year imma go broke 😂
16:00 that's Francis's afternoon gone for today! Love the demo of it
hi richie
Crazy how far Chicano culture has come to be accepted and profited off.
Wait til redcat releases their 6x6 crawler! 😁
50,000 subs!! Hell ya man. I been away a minute. I'm happy to see you growing so much! You talked me into a TRX4 back when you had like 300 subs and were the only channel doing in depth reviews. Glad to see you're still at it! The 64 is ok. I just hope it does well so I can get a caprice body down the line 😂
I'm going to buy one of these for sure to add to my collection. Good video as well.
Damn Fran that thing is beautiful. I’m gonna scoop the green one when it’s available
WOW! What a beautiful car! 😮
It really looks fantastic!
Great review, dude!!!
Happy new year! And stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Greatest review I have ever seen! Thank you sir!
You always do a great job. Not my type of RC, but it sure looks great,
Looks great enjoy.👍👍
Awesome video! I just ordered one despite the down sides. Lately, Redcat has acknowledged the bumper and toe in link issue and are apparently sending the buyers a link/coupon for the upgraded parts for free! It is a little hefty on price for sure, but for Lowrider lovers (such as myself) this model has hit that mark. I personally like the "63!🤣👍
*Im not gonna lie for the price I was kinda disappointed it didn’t have a servo for each corner and it should’ve came with the lights I bought mine because I’ve been a fan of Jevries since I was 13 and I didn’t know his version was the blue one and I picked the red 😩*
I feel your voice is calming
Its like asmr for Rc people
@@Morkrog except when he swears haha
Yes, I feel that RC should be a calming stress reliever
An old hippie friend owned one of these.
The trunk is so big you can sleep in it.
You're having just wayyyyyyyy too much fun on that stand popping those front wheels yeah that car is not my cup of tea but to each his own
Like #769 great unboxing and review I picked one up at my local hobby shop for 325 brand new in the box 📦
I cant wait till people start adding pinstriping, goldleaf and metal flake paint. Great video like always.
On the Facebook group there’s so many options now that people are creating and starting to sell.
I got the red one cons body clip placements prolly offer more spare parts like the antennas are so easy to break if your not careful and the suspension when your raised up all the way hard to steer but they started selling correction parts so yeah I like the blue real nice man 👍
Gotta have the right tunes playing in the background to really showcase this,"ain't nothing but a "G" thang baby" Haha.
Francis, yea my left bumper fell off trying to get the body off too, I had to super glue it back, lol This is my 2nd highest price r/c vehicle own, the 1st one is the Traxxas UDR~! It might become a shelf queen...
At that price point I would have expected a metal chassis and a front-mounted motor and somewhat realistic two speed transmission and a better interior. Oh, and a hard body. My WPL D12 Suzuki Carry has more detail for $60-70 including working headlights 😅 Edit: I get that this is a unique lowrider vehicle but I even if I was into this scene I still wouldn't pay $600+ given its quality or lack thereof
YesSiRr!! This is the R.C.car I definately would like 2 get!! Thankz for dat Mate!! Very cool Ryde! YesSiRr!!
Reconsider not reviewing bashers! Your review are the best on the internet. I have the sport primarily because of you. You once said bashers are for kids, not true. All RC are for kids, of all ages,. Not asking you to change format, just grab some bashers and review them, for the community!
This is a awesome car
Francis, where is that arrma kraton 6s review buddy?!?!?!?!? I wanna see some bashers on this awesome channel also. I love my crawlers, god knows it’s true, but my revo and my kraton definitely have their place in my rc life and I’m sure in most other people too! Great video as always but hopefully we see those reviews sooner then later sir. Have a good one my friend and stay safe. 😁👍
Dat sheet nutz!
Oh shit wst are u doing..lol..love it cool ass car..
Props to redcat for having the balls to not follow everyone like lemmings in the bashing lineup. Like team corally following arrma ect ect they always have kinda do their own thing which is cool. The price is stupid though but I'm sure in a year or two when there's a bunch of knockoffs of it they will lower the price allot or offer a roller. Also awesome servo
Redcat been around for some time already in the nitro area for sure ....
Finally something different :)
In the video in the back the Pumper is broken on the same place like yours! Take a look!!
I have been a rc guy for 30 years and I have owned a few lowriders so its a must that I have one of these lol even though it's NOWHERE WORTH THE MONEY!!!! I have seen a few vids where they had the same issue with the bumper being broke....I have never owned a red cat rc and this is the main reason lol its just "MY OPINION" I don't know how good their rc products are now but in the past they were never taken seriously when making a "Hobby grade" rc vehicle....and it looks like they still can't and don't lol they had these out over 10 years ago and I would've thought by now they would've made a way more durable lowrider rc if anything the thing should be made out of carbon fiber because of the abuse it takes from hopping!!!! That's alot of money for something that can be broken just getting out the box or already comes broken smh 😖 all in all I have to have one because I'm a lowrider 😁 great video by the way bud👍so far the best unveiling ✌sad to see yours came broken too....hope mines doesn't😑
Whatching this while impatiently waiting for the gatekeeper upgrades Video 😅👉⏰
How does he not own an Everest 10? They classic and work good
Better spend those 600 building a super scaled crawler than buying that. But its nice to have that one for collection though 😅 can you have a review with Yikong YK4102 / Absima Sherpa 😁
Not everyone is into crawling. Expand your mind
im glad i watched this video before i shelled out $600 for one of these
Really don't see how that is worth 600 garbage build quality broken out the box! I think it will sell but fall apart quickly and get left on the shelf, I'd wait for the revised version ;)
Agree with you on the quality.
@@RCReviewChannel Yeh I really like that their trying something new in RC and I get that the real cars have a huge following but the price and quality just doesn't match, the price of a high end crawler but the build quality of a cheap AliExpress copy? So many companies are doing this at the moment because they know or think they can get away with it :(
Love the blue ,very nice car ,I can't see the point in it personally and it won't be going into my collection
The hard part is justifying the fun factor of this vehicle. Most people will probably play with it for one day and that’s it. It might be worth it for those who will customize it for many many months.
@@RCReviewChannel I would probably use it a few times then it would end up a shelf Queen and for the price I could use that money on other rcs better plus there are none available in UK at the moment either
Has anyone noticed How All the homies and Locsters are hellla exspensive now. And homie rollerz like 500 just for a model. This car is cool BTW. Im looking for the figures, but couldn't resist this haha
hola me enantan tus video saludo
Cruising down the street in my six fo..
I think with the counter weight set up correctly where it wouldn’t really lock all the way back it could definitely be made to look pretty cool and I absolutely love low riders and I love this car I just don’t know if I could justify spending the money for it. I would be afraid it would be more of a shelf queen
Good advice there bud thank you
@@RCReviewChannel from what I’ve seen everybody’s put the weights in the very back so when the front hops it locks straight up in the air I haven’t had one in front of me but I think putting the counterweights possibly over the rear axle or slightly in front of would actually make the team build to bounce really hot up but still actually come down and if the thing goes down as fast as it comes up and has any sort of suspension to the front I think if you timed it right as soon as the front tires touch the ground let the servo down and then back up right after that would give you that spring hop action at least that’s how we used to really hop in the old days you basically had to hit the dump valve as soon as the wheels touch the ground let the spring start to compress and then throw the pump in order to catch the rebound and the hydraulics would come up with force
i just ordered mine in blue
Hopefully 🤔 make it better for a five seats, into a custom car, with automatic doors, windows, magnetic open trunk and hood for motor accessories, looks too cool for great ideas and challenges (REDCAT POWER!)☕🤨🏗️👍🤔🤑🔥🤤😳💯
Great ideas there.
Ppl are complaining about a $600 Rc bt will pay $1k for Xmaxx 🤔 thn say what's so special about it for the price.... Hello nobody has ever generated a production lowrider Rc that drives. Not to mention it has a solid rear axle
How long did it take to ship?
What connector is used on battery
Can you make a video about the controller ? The sixty four is way too fast! Need to slow down the throttle so it’s LOW N SLOW!
I think it's an awesome concept and great execution of the Lexan body, but I feel it's real world use is unfortunately very limited.
Maybe worth 600 if Ice Cube was in the video promoting it
I really like this but still on the fence as I personally think it's kinda expensive for what it is,especially if parts are falling off. You should do a review on the new HG P415 Hummer. That thing looks bad ass and detailed
Yeah this thing should’ve been $450 at most. Yes we’re doing a review on the HG hummer
@@RCReviewChannel couldn't agree more as that's a fair price in my opinion for the redcat. That's awesome you're doing a review on the HG Hummer as I really want one but have yet to see a review of it. There's one review but it's not in english,lol
What kg is the front servo
Is the piece of the bumper still in the box or the phone
This did exactly what I thought it would. Convince me even more that I really want one 😂 but also convince me it’s not worth that much. That’s bs, especially a year later now knowing it’s common issue that you can’t really drive it forwards or backwards that much. Like you can, but you have to be easy with it to not strip stuff I mean. I know it’s not a basher and I don’t mean it in that kind of way, but would be cool to at least drive it without worrying of stripping gears. That’s all what I’ve heard at least. Feel free to put more input or if it’s more worth it than I’m making it seem. Because by all means this is badass, but 600? My mst rmx RTR has so much effort put into the quality of a RTR, drift car too while at it. And that’s only a tad more than half of this lol
Does it come with a battery charger?
My hobby shop has one in Canada it arrived there on about November 25
Canada. Interesting
cool rc but mine didn’t come with a broken front bumper!
They are $400.00 today go get you one!!!
Sweeeeeeeet!
@rcreview is this car for sale now ?
Your a better man than me im already sitting hear thinking omg 600 dollars and the only thing it does is bounce then the bumper is busted I would have lost my mind as far behind they are producing these do you realize how long your going to wait for a replacement part
Hello everyone. I recently purchased a Redcat gen7 and am having a hard time finding hex spacers for the tire rub I get. I would appreciate any suggestions. Ty.
Check amazon! I can send you the link to the ones I bought for my Redcat Gen 7 Pro.
@@rodneyduran55 yes please that would be great all the ones I've looked the comments say it didn't fit the Gen 7 because of the axle size.
600 😂 this is crazy😳
$350-$400, I'd get 1. NOT $600
In all fairness I doubt someone can build something similar for that price. And I haven't seen anything like it. If you want this I guess your stuck paying $600, even tho it's a little much
Dat thing campfire! It be underpriced.......dat sheet would still sell fast at $1000!
@@old-rcplane-phart Homie, it still would sell quick at $1000!
it aint bro. its worth every dolla
The AMain link isn't working
Beautiful 👍 but, where are the homie figures to go with the lowrider 😞😓😩😫😭
Nice video, where did you get the car stand?
right here bit.ly/3YJcyyN
Where do I buy one?
keren bat anjay
my receiver was missing double sided tape , bumper wasn't broken
I saw the commercial when I first came out then I saw how much it costs
Looks like they need some work done to the over all thoughts of the car, It reminds me of the hot wheel's lowrider
Hi du you have the traxxas Xmaxx 8s
You should put a weevolver in it.
That’s a pretty good idea.

Great body but the parts are a bit poor, that small piece that came off was the left wing mirror lol 😂, but like the concept
Nice car, you would thing they would make the build more robust considering what this car does. 600 to expensive to be so cheaply built.
They have to pay for that license
@@Scrimjer It is still not worth it he money they are asking for. Just not robust enough.
That’s our biggest feedback as well.
It’s the culture for sure.
Six hundred for the redcat makes the seven-fifty for the vanquish crawler look like a deal.I know a guy who just spent Ten grand for a 3wk vacation in french polynesia for him and his wife and when he returned all he had was a fading sunburn,priorities you spends your money you gets what you wants!
Will look cool on the shelf and a bit of fun from time to time. But missed the mark on the important stuff. Breakage out of the box is damn disappointing for the price. Nicely packaged but they want $1000 for this in Australia. Ahhhhhhh nope.
That bumper brakes on everybody's car in the same spot it comes broken
I'd prob pay 500 in a plain brown box👍
All you need is sum gin and juice 😋
Without the shell on it looks so cheap and toy grade, that body would look great on my TRX4 tumbling down a muddy hill though
I really need your help. Can you please respond
I like the scale look but can I fit 20s under it because those rims/tires are certainly a no go😐
Ok, I'm gonna be real here. It's $300 top as a rtr. But now a day almost all r/c are overpriced. If I want to waste $600+ I'll get a ProBoat ✔️😂
Agreed on the price being way too high for what it is. $300 tops for sure. Disagree on the rims, but I’m from the west coast and prefer the look of a smaller Dayton wire wheel or similar.
Good point there. The China direct manufacturers show what these should really go for
@@craiglizt8074 I'm from the Midwest southern Ohio country boy, I agree with the wire wheels, always a classic look
Above my price point.. By $400. Its good, but not good enough for that kind of $$
