RedCat Racings Tornado EPX Pro Cyclone of Muscle

[Nerfaholic1]

Redcat claims that the tornado epx pro is shipped with a 2.4ghz radio system, yet all the videos i have seen say that it comes with an AM radio. It would be great if you could clarify. Thanks.

[alishanmao]

@Nerfaholic1 yes it ships with 2.4Ghz radio. if you want AM radio, you can choose to have it.

[sammmo00]

I have this car and every time i bash it around it breaks and i need to wait about 2 weeks for my new metal parts to come. I wait for parts more than i drive this thing :/

[MegaLogo43]

do a video actualy explaining the whole car itself and do some durability test please!?!?!?!?!?

[spikysim]

how long will the batteries last stock?

[sammmo00]

@spikysim my stock lasts abt 10 min. but i got a 7.4v lipo n that lasts about 25 mins.

[lethalmonster1]

Would you recommend this car or the Redcat tornado s30, what is top speed of both?

[PoptartzAnonymous]

ali is this a durable car i know backdraft is better but is it durable needagood durable fast car fr track racing and beating it up

[alishanmao]

@PoptartzAnonymous its an ok car for beginners. you can race it on tracks and it takes some beating

[gallowman89]

Should I get the Tornado EPX Pro or the Twister XB Pro?

[alishanmao]

@gallowman89 twister is fun

[ashnbrandon1]

how fast does this car go?

[lilgurby]

Is the construction mostly metal? Can it take a beating?

And is the 2000 mah battery appropriate. About how long would that last.

Or is a higher mah or lipo battery necessary.

[hugehobbies]

Hey Ali, I am interested in buying a redcat!!! Im just so excited but i cannot pick a buggy that would suit me... I am interested in this one but would you be able to tell me or recomend a even better vehicle no pricier than $250. Also is this a good car? THx i owe you one- hugehobbies (im really getting into the rc hobby but wanna get a super strong RC compared to my others!)

[MrHockeyBlood]

Hello ali, i am very interested in buying this car. would you be able to tell me if this is a very good car and how fast it goes? Regards- mrhockeyblood

[alishanmao]

@MrHockeyBlood its a good car, but backdraft 8e is better

[turboboyyea]

can you run the venom 7.2 5000 mAh battery on it safely and if so would it be any faster ?

[alishanmao]

@turboboyyea yes more mAh can give you a bit of more power and run time

[MasterBoy392]

is sunfire brushless and the tornado epx pro brushless the same? if not, which one is better?

please reply bro and thanks in advance..

[alishanmao]

@MasterBoy392 no idea. I have not seen sunfire

[MasterBoy392]

hey ali, i have only one question for you but please response to me as fast as possible... i am going to buy one rc buggy by the end of the year, but am confuse. the traxxas e revo seem to be good but very costy and this one in the video is affordable by me. which one do you think is better for me? i like offroad and onroad, not rock crawling. i should wait till the traxxas become cheap or this one will fit me? please help me and thanks, i was surfing on ebay when i found this video response.

[alishanmao]

@MasterBoy392 well traxxas are not only expensive but when it comes to repair them it gets worst :) you can go with RedCats. this one or many more choices on their site. look at their 8E stuff. like AfterShock8E or Backdraft 8E or EarthQuake 8E

[MasterBoy392]

@alishanmao

good news. i bought this today !!! but the truck version !!

its so cool !!!

thanks for your kind advice... am currently proceesing a video and would like to put this soundtrack... any idea of the song's name please???

i will post it on you channel if you wish :))

[boringpeach]

how fast does it go cause i think it goes about 50 but im just guessing

[alishanmao]

@boringpeach about 35 mph maybe, not sure. could go faster with a matching lipo ;)

[boringpeach]

@alishanmao cause i have the bandit but i want a car that goes faster and mine goes about 35 but all the other videos i saw for this car went about 50 and they were stock

[alishanmao]

@boringpeach well it can go faster and 50mph if you use a Lipo ;)

[boringpeach]

@alishanmao ok thanks for your help

[boringpeach]

@alishanmao does this car go faster than the traxxas bandit

[Christopher23111111]

what's the difference with a 9.2 battery and a lipo battery?

[alishanmao]

@Christopher23111111 Lipo are available in 7.4, 11.v only no 9.2v, so its just basically lipo has more power, more discharge rate and better running time

[headshotinureyes]

Is that video in real time or has it been sped up?

[alishanmao]

@headshotinureyes I never fix the videos my man. its real time video

[Chiliarcher]

I have bad experiences on nitros, and i have one all ready.

Do you have any idea how fast this Tornado EPX pro is, since im looking for a cheap and strong car.

[alishanmao]

@Chiliarcher its not very fast but does a good job for bashing. If you put a Lipo inside then its fast enough.

[Chiliarcher]

Is this car good for a person with quite a lot of experience, and who would like to go higher than beginner level R/C cars?

How fast does with 7.2v battery?

[alishanmao]

@Chiliarcher yup its good, but best is Backdraft 8E

[Chiliarcher]

@alishanmao

Whats so great in this Backdraft 8E?

I dont like 1/8 electrics =(

[alishanmao]

@Chiliarcher then go Hurricane XTR or Backdraft 3.5 :)

[ikzn]

hey Ali! Great job with these videos, really awsome!

Can u tell me wich one is better, Acme Raptor/Bullet or RedCat Tornado?

Thanks man!

[alishanmao]

@ikzn i am really scared to recommend ACME to anyone after tremendous amount of issues faced by customers and returns of ACME Cars. go with Redcat tornado

[BBbullet96]

do you think the back draft is better then its a bit more expensive but better qulity isnt it

[alishanmao]

@BBbullet96 yup. Bigger is better. backdraft 8E is twice faster than this one

[blurb72]

@alishanmao what kinds of lipos can this buggy do???

[BBbullet96]

ali im knew to rc and i have been looking for a good rc do you recomend this buggy and another thing is it durable i dont want it to break easily

[alishanmao]

@BBbullet96 well, I have not heard any problems from people about this buggy. To me it was a good buggy when I tested. Not very fast though but does a good job.

[giantoffire]

@BBbullet96 they sucks balls i wasted my money . save for a real rc car . dont support china products !!!!!!!!

[arevaloanthony]

Ali just wanna ask is there a difference between a metric pitch pinion and just a pitch pinion... How can I upgrade my pinion?

[TKELLIOTT123]

i have this buggy, and guys trust me use lipos and this buggy rips, nimh is dead tech now, it comes stock with 7.2 2000mah, it runs ok, upgraded to 7.2 5000 mah (nimh) and ran alot better, then i bought a 7.4 4000mah lipo and this thing fuc#ing flys!!!!!!! this buggy and lipo batteries are cheap on ebay!!!

[giantoffire]

@TKELLIOTT123 is very fast. but take it to the tracks everything come off lol

[Kartingboy1]

brushless

?

[jforbord]

is it waterproof??

[yoyofreak94]

wow for such a great price im debating on picking up one of these sweet rides, whats the speed?

[arevaloanthony]

So Ali, if you gonna recommend a battery for this buggy what would you suggest? Just to be in a safe side not damaging anything.

[alishanmao]

7.2v 500mah NiMh battery is perfect

[arevaloanthony]

I got this awsome buggy made some upgrades too. I have a esc fan and motor heat sinks, does somebody knew is it possible to use 11.1v 5000 mah lipos in my buggy? Will it fry my esc and damage my motor... FYI these are stock esc and motor.

[alishanmao]

normally people burnt the ESC or totaled the motor on 11.1v lipolies. so what ever you do, do it on your own risk :D

[leonardolandivarbaro]

how can i make it go faster and to gt a longer run timee ??? this buggy is totally awesomeee!!

[alishanmao]

normally using a 5000mAh Ni Mh Battery can get you going faster and running longer times.

[leonardolandivarbaro]

thanks

[leonardolandivarbaro]

awesome vid !!! is this buggy waterproof????????? about much does it cost????

[alishanmao]

you got to do a little to make it water proof. rest prices you can check on redcatracing site

[barbswails]

Thanks, looks like a really great buggy but is a little over my price range. Do you know another buggy that is similar but maybe 200 dollars or less?

[barbswails]

Hi, do you know if the tornado exp is better than the brushless exceed sunfire or th xstr-pro brushless? I can't figure out which one is the best and has a good price. If you know another rc buggy that is better than theese I would like tho know. Thanks

[alishanmao]

go for backdraft 8E 1/8 scale redcat racing buggy

[yongsoo27]

I made smthing like that.

[13Star13Fire13]

what do u call that on 0:33 and cool vid

[alishanmao]

a 180 degree reverse turn maybe?

[GangstaGianoRevenge]

You think is better, tornado, vortex or volcano ? i mean epx pro vesions...

Because i want to get one of them and i can't decide... I was also thinking to get an acme bullet or pioneer... SO, between those 5 models wich is better ?

Sorry my bad english, i'm italian...

[GangstaGianoRevenge]

@GangstaGianoRevenge and also the acme raptor...

[hockeygoalie95]

how fast?

[twitsz]

im going to be in vegas from this thursday the fifth to saturday. if you can ship fast to vegas i will get it but if it takes up to a week, i wont. do u know how long it takes about

[rcbuggyracingya]

have you test this car with raidar gun at 7,2 nimh?

[alishanmao]

Nops, that time i did not get my radar gun yet

[rcminizracingya]

hehe thats the same engine i have, can i run 11,1v lipo, or top 8,4v lipo? :)

[alishanmao]

some people use lipo try 8.4 first or 7.4 first

[twitsz]

i realy want this but i dont know what else i will need if i get it, can you tell me. also im a first time rc car driver so would you recomend this or some other car?

[twitsz]

also do you ship to canada cuz thats were i live

[alishanmao]

I believe RedCat Can Ship to Canada, or check with hobby-estore. This one is a good buggy. But if you want something real tough, Go for BackDraft 8E 1/8 Scale. That thing is unbeatable. Check the videos. If you need this buggy Tornado EPX. you do not need anything. Everything is in the box. Just charge the battery, add batteries to radio and start bashing

[foodstampz]

HEY ALI. what battery is this running on .? it deosnt look like the stock nimh speed.

what cell can i stic in there.? a 7.4 2s.???

[jthornley12]

Ali wat would you recommend running a .28 on?? ;)

[alishanmao]

30% nitro medium Glow plug.

[alishanmao]

easy to use, very clean power :) no hustles to start and tune the engine yet powerful :) and fast. While Tornado Nitro has its own advantages :D

[iwinsurf12]

hi any idear of the top speed?

[alishanmao]

man when i did this video my Radar gun was on the way. Now the sample is back to Factory. But next time surely I will get speed for ya.

[MoRRisoNRisiN]

another great vid ali the that thing flys!!

[hpitrophy]

love it mate =] im still wanting them to open a shop over here! ull be getting comments like this till they do haha nt realy... =] cant wait to see them over here in england =]

[312unknown]

[alishanmao]

well said :) wait :) twin Lipoly powered, lethal acceleration new Redcats the AfterShock 8E videos are coming next

[sk8r4life206]

hey ali nice vid i just got mine and im running mine on a 3000mah battery.

Are you on your period imyy2k07?

[alishanmao]

LOL i think you can leave imyy2k07 alone for a while. everyone has bad days and bad moods. he is a cool guy and one of my nice viewers on youtube. :) lets not get into quarrels. Just keep it friendly attacks heheheh. Yo Imyy2k07. Talk to me bro what happend. :D

[carlbikeman14]

Hi Ali, how long do the batteries last on these brushlesses rc? on a average battery (stock) coz i know you can get different types of batteries?

[alishanmao]

well 5 to 8 minutes full power action can be achieved with 2000mAh stock battery but if you get 3000 or 5000mAh you get longer running time and if you put a li poly, this one goes nuts :D

[bladesbleedblue1]

dude you hae to bring that to the race track btw 5 stars and awesome video!!

[alishanmao]

I am willing to, but at the moment too busy in China. When I have chance I will bring these redcats to US and tracks :) we will race together. I loose or win, I don't care but that will be loads of fun right :D Wait 3 new Redcat videos are coming and let me tell you, the 2 electrics are lethal ;)

[jthornley12]
