Redcat Racing GEN8 PACK Unboxing | CompetitionX

Redcat Racing GEN8 PACK

Redcat Racing’s GEN8 has recently popped up on everyone’s radar lately and quickly become a fast-mover in the scale trail scene. Being only available in RTR format, the consensus has been that the next ride will be a full-on kit.

However, that’s not true! In fact, Redcat’s next GEN8 release has just dropped and it’s more of a pre-built builders kit. The GEN8 PACK, or Pre-Assembled Chassis Kit, comes completely assembled out of the box minus electronics, wheels, tires and body. Redcat has left those out to allow you to easily build a custom rig right from the get-go!
