I recently purchased an electric 1/10 redcat blackout xte pro. I drive it on mostly loose dirt/rocks. I built an RC track in my pasture, so I do plan to do some friendly racing(nothing too serious).

As I am new to the hobby, I have some very beginner questions. My RC already goes plenty fast enough for me to handle but I was wondering what upgrades are necessary for my RC? Shocks? Servo? Wheels?

I'm not looking to dump hundreds into my RC as it is just a hobby. Any advice for me would be great. Thanks!

RC is just a "hobby" for me too, and I spend a couple thousand a year. I not sure you're going to get a lot of "upgrade" advice for a redcat. I would just run it as it is, considering you're just running around in a pasture. If the servo burns out, replace the servo. When the tires wear out, replace the tires.

Thanks for the advice. Maybe I'll just stick to fixing it as it breaks.

Great advice, if its not broke don't fix it. I just went over spending thousands for 2015 and made a new years resolution to cut back just a little. Good thing I never keep new years resolutions.

Or receipts. Never keep receipts.

Amen! I shred mine immediately. Do not need others knowing what I spend on my "toys"
