I have vbeen wondering this, I don't think so it is simular to the MCD, in some ways. But nothing is interchangable. I like the 1/8th scale on steroids look. And the diff design rules.
Is Redcat a clone of anything?

clubin, i think it's kinda a hybrid mutt:blink:, I reckon it's titan diff cases and the titan steering system but with mcd/fs layout...the mcd gears fit and so do the cvds...tank looks similar but you have both so you tell me
good pics of the titan in this link

diffs are a larger savage design...they must have been on steriods , arms look original and shocks too.
the rampage looks a better set up than the titan to me, better front and rear chassis bracing.
to tell you the truth, looking at it closely I think there's more original rampage than clone in them...some are calling them clones but of what i ask?

Yes, the tanks are interchangable, the MCD one is heavier. And the stuff you mentioned is the same. The diff's in the Redcat are far superior to what is int he MCD. The MCD runs a planetary gear set.
Just curious that's all.

I call it a Frankenclone. They took good ideas from everyone and made it their won.

IMO, they have made a very fine "Frankenclone" then.
not so much a clone but it is made by Hsp and rebadged and Hsp have a habit of pilthering a few ideas and then turning pretty good bits of kit, just don't seem to have any good ideas as regard to marketing them so leave that to others i guess, so youre correct about the Frankenclone
