Technical protection upgrade for Redcat Gen8

The JAZRIDER JR-RG806-RD centre skid plate is a practical upgrade for hobbyists seeking reliable underside protection. Machined from durable aluminium, the plate is shaped to cover critical chassis zones while minimising added mass.

Material and design considerations

Aluminium provides a favourable strength to weight balance, resisting deformation from repeated knocks yet keeping the centre of gravity low. The JR-RG806-RD uses a profile that protects transmission and mounting areas without interfering with suspension travel.

Installation and serviceability

The part is engineered for direct alignment with Redcat Gen8 mounting points. Fitment requires basic tools and allows for easy removal during maintenance. Regular inspection of fasteners and surface condition will prolong service life.

What fasteners are recommended?

Use stainless steel or grade 8 hardware sized to the original mounting points to resist corrosion and preserve clamp load.

Does the plate affect drivetrain alignment?

When fitted to stock mounting positions the JR-RG806-RD does not alter drivetrain geometry. Verify alignment after installation, especially on modified setups.

Recommended maintenance routine?

Inspect for heavy deformation after impact, clean abrasive debris, and re-torque mounting bolts as part of routine checks to ensure continued protection.
