How to Repair the Idler Gear Assembly on the Redcat Machete
The Redcat Machete has been a BLAST - but my last bash it stripped some teeth on the center idler gear.
In this video - I show you how to swap it out...and more importantly, what I think might have caused the issue in the first place!
New idler gear assembly, RER18816 can be purchased directly from Redcat, here: www.redcatracing.com/products/rer18816?variant=40249041518682
Tools I used:
- thread locker: alnk.to/eZGK6Rf
- 2.0mm & 2.5mm speed tip: alnk.to/9btJJWR
- electric driver: amzn.to/4baomP3
- magnetic tray: alnk.to/dWccdZv

    • @RoadsideRC
      @RoadsideRC 14 часов назад

      Thank you - glad the video was helpful! You will find the motor and ESC are the least important items to a RWD RC drift car. That being said - the go-to setups are brushless sensored combos. It gives all the power you would need plus the control. If you are considering going with the MST RMX RTR - I would heavily consider the brushed version. Their brushless is non-sensored. It works well - but with both versions, you will eventually upgrade anyway. Might as well save some $$ up front. This is the one I am talking about: alnk.to/ei1KYlr It looks like they are out of stock at the moment, but there are some of the brushless models in stock. The other car you can look at is the Yokomo RTR: alnk.to/esWvXbu It is slightly more expensive - boo...and comes with worse electronics - also boo. But the chassis is really good! Good luck!

    • @freemansfocus

    Yes, 100% repeat the test with equal tires. I have seen a few other videos comparing the Vanquish Stance to the Redcat Ascent Fusion and their conclusions are pretty much the same as yours as far as performance goes. The Vanquish has slightly better clearance and much better tires with better traction, but the Redcat has the slow speed control, the wheel speed if you need it, and the better stock servo as well. In every test I have seen, the overall result in performance is pretty much equal. However, this does NOT make them equal trucks. Overall, the Redcat Ascent wins by a MASSIVE margin, its actually the very best "high performance" RTR crawler on the market now. Why do I say that? Because of the price and the features. Sure, the Vanquish may perform similarly overall, but it costs $100 more, has a standard (cheap) brushed motor that is too jumpy, and the Redcat has a Carbon Fiber chassis as well as brass weights already installed on the front axle which is why the weight distribution is better. You see, in order to make the RedCat an INCREDIBLE truck, all you need is Better Tires, Better Foams, and for extra points - Brass High Clearence Lower Links. To make the Vanquish an INCREDIBLE truck, you need basically all new electronics, the upgraded links, the carbon fiber chassis, and the front axle brass portal covers to equal the same value as the RedCat. So the incredible version of the RedCat will cost you around $500 plus tax all said and done. The incredible version of the Vanquish will cost you about $1000.

    Quite an informative video! This is interesting and now has me thinking about putting a mild overdrive in my TRX-4M F-150 that I'm going to use primarily as a trail truck and build a Tarantula chassis kit for extreme crawling. I guess some overdrive ought to help with towing by giving the front a little more pulling effectiveness. Was thinking I could put the Tarantula on a trailer and use the TRX-4M to haul it around until we get to a rock crawl spot to offload it and play, lol. Let me ask you this... what about overdriving both axles to give it more pulling power overall while still having say, 11-15% overdrive in the front? Think that would work?

    • @RoadsideRC
      @RoadsideRC 3 дня назад

      Hi there! Glad you thought this was interesting! When you overdrive both axles - you are increasing the wheel speed of both axles. That is MUCH cheaper to do by simply installing a bigger pinion gear. As an example.

Me and the girlfriend are wanting to do the very thing you do in this video, go hiking around nature trails in our area as well as when out on camping trips and bringing the little crawlers along.

Do you think my goals will tend toward a light spring with thick oil and zero rebound? I’ve tried 5,10, and 15w shock oil with oem shocks and springs…….. and it hasn’t really provided the effect I’m looking for. I even cut 1 and 2 coils off the oem springs just to see what it would do in relation to shock spring mount holes. I have everything straight up and down right now.

    Man I’ve never had a RC of any kind in my 60 years. But this one looks awesome. I’m guessing with the possible upgrade possibilities. Would this be a good starter for a old guy?

      It is a fun vehicle - yes! What is best for you really depends on your budget and where/how you want to drive. How can I help you more?

    I have the following RCs, which ones are allowed to race their? Im curious about the "Race" scene, and debating going beyond just bashing. Not sure what all is required, to get going. 1. Arrma Typhon 3S ( Mamba X 6S Electronics )use at 4S or 3S 99% of the time 2. Losi DB Pro 4S (Spektrum)(Out of a Majave 4S)(Jennysrc) 3.Arrma Kraton 4S (2.0) 6S Electronics, run in 4S 4. Arrma Vortex 3S ( 100% Bone Stock )

      Good news - their novice race group is typically a "run what you brung" format. All sorts of vehicles mixed in. That Arrma Typhon, running 2S or 3S would be your best bet based on my experience. You will need a good set of race tires and a transponder. You can get both at Cookeville Hobbies. They know what the RC Farm uses. Good luck!

    I know why you’re motor kept getting hot. It’s because you probably changed your pending gear and spar gear but if not, you’re just flooring it all the time.

      Those are some of the many possible answers, true.

    This was really helpful thanks. Do you have any videos on masking for different colours/shapes with paint?

    • @RoadsideRC

      Glad it was helpful! Painting is one skill I have NOT mastered yet! No videos on that.

    sharks.. you showed how fast each of the servo moved except the one you recommended. Would be great to see how close it is to the stated 0-60degree speed spec.

      Doh! I screwed up. Sorry about that.
