Just Bought A Redcat Rampage XB
 
Well guys I just purchased a used XB and it was just shipped out, I have only ever ran hpi bajas so this will be a change for me, Anyways I think I got a good deal on it, Has 30cc engine, Flysky rx/tx, Hpi baja wheel adapters, hpi air filter setup, upgraded hitec servos, and he said about 100 bucks in spare parts. He said it is rtr and has about 4 tanks on it. Was it a good buy or not? Anyone know a good place online to purchase parts for these? Here is the best pics I have of it until it gets here.

As long as everything is running when it gets there then it definatly was a great deal! They are like 575 to 650 new and with the engine that is on it you shouldnt have any problems. For the price IMO its a great deal. Let us know what its like when you get it!

Didn't you post a thread about not buying anything from Redcat recently? :weird:

cdewalt1985 02-21-2012 02:03 PM

I will keep you guys updated on when I get it and its condition. And yes I did post about not buying redcat, That post was refering to their customer service. I will not buy from them new because warrenty and customer service sucks.

cdewalt1985 02-21-2012 08:24 PM

I thought that was a fair price since they are 550 new, figured I would jump on it.....took all my baja parts fund but I think it will be worth it....lol

cdewalt1985 02-21-2012 10:35 PM

Redcat is not the way to go. Their products are inferior and service is awful. Our local hobby shop is full of Redcats that need repair. They can't get parts and hate to see anyone walk in with one.

cdewalt1985 02-22-2012 05:53 PM

well that is your opinion, thank you,,,,,,,by the way guys the xb is now in my state and ready for delivery tomorrow......cant wait.
