Overview of The GEN7 Sport Rock Crawler

Redcat Everest Gen7 Sport – 1/10 Scale Electric RC Scale Rock Crawler

The Redcat Racing Everest Gen7 Sport, 1/10 Scale RTR Scale Rock Crawler has shocked the RC market. Out of the box, the Gen7 Sport comes standard with features, your’d expect to be optional, at amazing value.

It all starts with a powder coated 3mm ladder frame chassis, designed and tuned by BPC Custom Chassis and Two Guys Trail Gear. The addition of the low slung forward mounted battery tray and steel electronics bridge create a highly tunable platform that performs alongside customized crawlers costing twice as much. Say what, you actually considered affordability along with quality. Thank you.

The realistic 4 door SUV body is similar to what your would find on many modern full sized crawlers. A high quality die cut decal sheet is also include with black, white, red and wood grain panel options so your can customize the Gen7 as your own, straight from the box. Shackle mount bumpers add even more realism and are ready to accept LED lights and mounts. Who likes night crawling. Especially while camping. Use your imagination here and think of ways to spook or scare your fellow campers next to you.

True to scale, licensed Interco Super Swamper Tires and functional bead lock wheels pull the Gen7 through the toughest of terrains. Each wheel uses inner and outer bead lock rings, which are made of 2mm steel, for maximum strength and tire holding power. Solid axle carrier lockout spools ensure both the left and right tires put down the power, for the most traction possible.

The Gen7 Sport includes a waterproof Hobbywing brushed crawler ESC, 550 brushed electric motor, Waterproof high torque metal gear Hexfly steering servo, 2000mAh NiMH battery pack, NiMH charger, and a 2.4GHz radio system. I always like to emphasize here, do not completely submerge the vehicle.

Needed to Run

Only one item is needed for your Gen7 Rock crawler to be able to operate once your take it out the box. 4 AA Batteries for Radio. This item is easily obtainable from literally from everywhere. While shopping at your local grocery store, hobby shop, gas station, another toy your have in the house and another popular place we all use, the internet. This one item surely will not be a deal breaker.

A few options made available to increase speed are simply the 7.4v and the 11.1v LIPO batteries. For when your feel the need for speed. Which has become one of my biggest weaknesses. Full throttle at full speed, which enviably leads to more parts. Luckily they are available. The life of an RC enthusiast.
