Take Your Redcat Ascent-18 to the NEXT LEVEL by adding Brass!

The Redcat Ascent-18 is a great crawler out of the box - but does have a 50/50 f/r weight distribution. There are some free mods that help move some weight forward to improve performance - and then in this video, we install brass upgrades on the front axle to push the weight balance even more!
