Awesome job! Thanks for providing all these useful tips and tricks! I'm going to get busy working on step one, even though I've used mine a bit already. I already broke that rear drive shaft on the right side and replaced it, so I'm going to try the fuel line trick.

You bring to light some really important stuff that Redcat overlooked and allowed out onto the market. Being new to the hobby, I would appreciate some how to’s on the ones that require a bit of skill to fix, like the soldering of new, and better battery connectors. Anything you might do for the newbie will be much appreciated - thanks !

Great video! Appreciate all the Kaiju EXT content. I just got one in the mail today since Redcat has a crazy sale going on this month. Your channel has been super helpful and I'm honestly surprised there's not more content about this truck to be found elsewhere. Quick question - why are the bump stops in the rear different lengths? I think you mentioned one is 10mm and the other 15mm. Thanks!

Great videos as usual bud! been watching your channel lately since I've gotten my kaiju ext friday.. I did the sway bars along with the +10 mm wheel hex (redcat #13333). Unfortunately I never ran it without those 2 mods. I also put the original kaiju tires on before I ran it. I'm amazed at this truck! And that's coming from a traxxas guy! Also, did u cut your chin gotee spoiler? I've been thinking about cutting mine to put the original bumper on it Anyways thanks again for the rad videos! Keep on blasting that thing

Thanks for the kind words. Yeah - I cut the bottom of the front body off. Thought it looked odd.

Great video and suggestions on the upgrades, I will definitely be doing all of these when I receive mine in a few days. Speaking of which, since I just purchased mine from HH yesterday do you think or know if Redcat has known about and actively fixed the weak metal in the turnbuckles? I've also seen other comments where people have used the original Kaiju turnbuckles or a Traxxas version to fix the breakage issue.

I have a question hope you might be able to answer for me.... I can't even get my kaiju up to top speed just won't stay straight I've adjusted my chamber and tow mess with the shock positions got the sway bars I don't know what the heck's going on.. like it'll be going straight and I give it more throttle and it shoots off one way or the other. Im about to say screw redcat because I have got a couple armas since my kaiju and they drive straighter than an arrow

That is really odd. Never had that issue with mine. Only thing I can think of is the diff fluid might be low/low weight. Eventually allows one wheel to spin and balloon more than the other...

What about the battery tray in the regular Kaiju I see you have the EXT version which is a longer chassis.

@@RoadsideRC it's a bit of a different layout. Chassis shorter so the receiver box actually sits up by the front shock Tower. I was curious about the battery train mod as I have issues trying to fit two 3s batteries in the battery tray however my 6s fits fine. I've only had my truck for about 3 days so still learning it.
