Redcat Racing RC Friday Fun Feature: Custom Rockslide RS10 Goes Crawling!

Redcat Racing Fan RC-Dude2025  has put some MONSTER upgrades on his Rockslide RS10. In this video he takes his RS10 what he calls “Crawler Heaven”. RC-Dude says “Crawler Heaven is basically just a huge area of rocks of all shapes, sizes and textures. Though I have my own crawler course in my backyard I love going down there and running my cat. I really enjoy taking my truck out trailing and crawling. Im slowly making custom mods to make it that much better while still keeping it an RS10.”
