The Everest Gen7 Scaler: Ready-to-Run in July 2017

The folks at Redcat Racing dropped an April Fool’s surprise that was, in the end, no joke. Additional renders along with details around their recently-teased 1/10 scale trail rig were posted to their Facebook and Twitter pages.

While their initial information drip wasn’t heavy on details, this second “tease wave” gives us a glimpse of what we can expect for pricing as well as a release timeframe for their Everest GEN7 Scaler.

That’s right, the Everest GEN7 is the name of the yet-to-be-released, ready-to-run (RTR), 1/10 trail rig that Redcat Racing is aiming at outdoor radio-control enthusiasts this summer. According to their social posts, this model will begin shipping in July and will be available in two trim levels.

The base level will have a “street price” under $200 while their deluxe model, with additional accessories and chassis elements, will retail for under $250.
