Redcat Everest Gen7 PRO 1/10 4WD RTR Scale Rock Crawler w/2.4GHz Radio (Green)
About this part
The Redcat Racing Everest Gen7 PRO 1/10 Scale RTR Scale Rock Crawler is going to shake things up the crawler world. With a host of included features that are normally reserved for aftermarket upgrades, the Gen7 PRO is potentially the most capable out of the box scaler on the market. This is thanks to a 3mm ladder frame chassis that was designed and tuned by BPC Custom Chassis and Two Guys Trail Gear. By combining this custom chassis with a steel electronics bridge and a low slung forward mounted battery tray, the Gen7 PRO provides a tune-able platform that has the high performance bells and whistles you would normally have to pay extra for.
The Gen7 PRO features a first of its kind, hinged body mount system that eliminates body clips in the hood - while the rear of the body hinges off the back of the truck making access to the chassis easy. Additionally, the Gen 7 PRO includes a molded roll cage, inner fenders and a roof rack loaded with scale accessories like a spare tire, jack, fuel cans, shovel, axe and sand ladder. Finish off the look with a molded snorkel and detailed shackle mount bumpers with a hitch ball and LED mounts, and the Gen7 PRO delivers in both performance and scale looks.
Combine these awesome features with a Hobbywing Brushed ESC, Licensed Interco Super Swamper tires, real beadlock wheels, CVD front axles and the Gen7 sets itself apart from the rest with its features and performance. The aggressively styled 4 door SUV body is available in green or black, and the included black, white, red and wood grain die cut decals will allow you to detail the truck the way you want. Plus, the included 3000mAh NiMH battery, charger and 2CE 2.4GHz radio system are included as well to make the Gen7 and unmatched value in the scale crawler market.

The Gen7 is a good foundation to build up into a great rig. Good: Literally need nothing besides 4 AA batteries to get started. Is fairly capable right out of the box. Suspension and bumpers can be raised to add some ground clearance and make it even better. Bad: Front CVA axle pins tend to pop out frequently. Keep a few spare CVA axles on hand. They typically don't break, but if the tiny pin falls out you'll never see it. The body is pretty top heavy with the tire on the roof rack, simply taking the spare tire off makes a huge difference in capability.
Gen7 arrived in good condition or-some unit. as I'm new to rock crawling cool unit to start with having load of fun.
Got this for my wife and she is really liking it and crawling! She’s even picked up a few accessory items already. Solid performing truck that seems to be durable and well engineered. I like it enough that redcat gen8 might be our next buy.
I bought this trail crawler for me and my kids. They love I love it. It is awesome! I have found nothing wrong with it. It also gives my brown Lab quite the exercise. He loves it too. I would recommend this vehicle for anybody!
Reviewers rate the Redcat Everest Gen7 PRO highly (all four reviews give 5 out of 5) and describe it as capable out of the box, needing only 4 AA batteries to run. Newer rock crawler owners and family buyers report enjoying it. One reviewer notes it can be upgraded with raised suspension and bumpers for extra ground clearance. The main recurring complaint is that the front CVA axle pins can pop out, so spares are recommended. One reviewer also reports the body is top heavy with the spare tire on the roof rack, and removing it improves capability. Reviews are few and mostly brief, so the picture is limited.
