Stock is as the vehicle ships. Calculated is worked from the stock figures on this page rather than stored beside them, so the two cannot drift apart. Not applicable means the vehicle does not come with it, like the motor on a roller or the tires on a race kit, or does not have one, like a KV rating on a brushed motor. Not published means it exists but no source we could find prints it.
How these numbers were settled
The 2.2in-wheel, longer-wheelbase (330mm) sibling of the Vertex-10, geared more aggressively: Redcat publishes 9:1 front axle, 12.375:1 rear axle, 3:1 portals and 32 percent total overdrive.
- As with the Vertex-10 the two ends are permanently different, so the ratio after the spur and the final drive do not apply, rather than being unknown; unlike the Vertex-10, Redcat does not print the resulting front and rear totals, so none are quoted.
- Spur and pinion tooth counts are not published.
- Same power system as the Vertex-10: Hobbywing 2812 1700kv outrunner, WP-10BL60-Crawler ESC, 2-4S.
- The tire is Redcat's published 5.25in = 133.35mm.
- The manual's gearing table marks 14T as the stock pinion, driving the 40T half of the 40T/18T transmission gear set (RER43550) shown in the exploded view.
