RWD RC Drifting is one of the more challenging forms of RC that I have done.
I see a lot of people who ask about getting into it, and then make some very common mistakes which reduces how much enjoyment they get.
In this video, I go over the Top 7 Mistakes I see folks do as they try RC drifting, and talk about how to avoid them.

0:56 AWD vs RWD
2:39 Electronics
7:09 Practice

Dude, your videos got me hooked on drifting! I never thought I'd be able to get into it, but your series gave me the confidence to give it a shot. I basically picked all my gear based on your reviews and recommendations, and now I'm actually learning how to do it! Your explanations are so easy to understand, it's like you're speaking my language. Thanks for making these videos in a genre of RC that can be a bit uptight sometimes. Keep 'em coming, man!

Thx for the video.Your 7points are...on point.I used to work at a local hobby shop & we used to get drift guys in there wanting us to tune their cars...I would set their cars up with a base setup & tell them to go practice & set their own car up further...almost all of them are still drifting with us today. Another topic is shock/suspension setups...A LOT of folks DON'T understand it & just mess it up totally

Only one I can think of is get an idea of cost especially if you're going to an indoor track. As you mentioned, you'll need to upgrade all the electronics, motor, esc, gyro and transmitter. Next as you mentioned, tires, another is suspension, if you don't already 1 or 2 "shorty" battery packs. Last comes the personalization of your vehicle and accessories. All this is something you'll want to budget ahead for. Know what it is your getting into and plan ahead. Cost can throw you off if you don't plan ahead. While you can get in on somewhat of a budget, honestly you'll need to spend a bit more if you want your car to do better, to hang with the ones who have been doing it a while and know better. Great video and content! 👍

Thanks to ROADSIDE RC! GREAT VIDEO! all of these things are essential to get into the hobby. mst rmx 2.0 rtr 380$ battery + charger 100$ futaba controller 200$ gyd450 80$ rs st servo 100$ wheels 40$ set of 4 tires 20$ i replaced my shocks with another set because mine were leaking out the box. but its more realistic for an rtr to just replace the seals for much less money. adjustable turnbuckles (comes on kit but not rtr) i got the ti turnbuckles 40$ (people say the aluminum ones bend easy) if you dont wanna drill holes in your body of your expensive drift car then pick up a 10-20$ magnetic body mount kit. -----point is that it just adds up quickly. i have maybe 10 hours on the car and ive spent way more money than i thought i needed to. something needs replaced after every session. saving money in this hobby is a myth. anyways im commited now lmao. if you are satisfied with making no inputs and letting the car drift for you with no precision and or control over where the car is going is that even drifting? if im not in control of the car then im not having fun with it. i think the rtr is for kids or people who dont know any better and are spending money in shops only to spend more money on replacement parts during the week after. i say build a kit and then you dont waste money up front on the rtr that comes with sub par components. this is just my opinion. im new to this scene and hobby but this is what ive gathered in the short time ive had my car. i love this youtube channel and through this content and also with the help of my local fb group i have got my car driving 10 times better now. the gyro made a huge difference and the tires did as well. new controller should arrive in the mail tomorrow. with that i can do some more tuning. i think my hardest obstacle is tuning and setting up the car so it drives like its suppose to. i dont know what a proper drift car is suppose to feel like anyways and i feel like this is something that makes is really hard to know if the car needs an upgrade or if its just a matter of skill or technique.

I'm watching these videos for a few months now, and decided to buy a used HPI Blitz Flux just to get the feeling of a rwd RC car. The minute I started driving it I knew rwd RC cars give me a bigger smile than an awd car. I already own an Arrma big rock and it just failed to give me that same smile. I would like to ad a few electronics like the mentioned quality gyro to see if it will improve handling. I upgraded the shocks on the HPI and that made it sit really low on the ground. I also decided it's about time to get me a "real" drift car, on the cheapish end of things. I would like a RTR-ish car which I can upgrade along the way because I need to practice the driving. I'd really like to hear what people think I should buy. There's so much choice that it makes my head spin and I don't want to watch movies for the coming months, I want to learn how to drift. I hope that some people could give me their opinion . Kind regards from the Netherlands.

The Yokomo does come with a battery and charger also. Still, both should get you started drifting quickly.

Awesome content, been through a lot of your videos. Sold my 4WD drift car some years ago, looking to go back but with a RWD! Would probably go with the RMX 2.5 RTR if it had turnbuckles and more adjustability. Might go the RRX/RMX 2.5S kit version! 🙈 I’d figure I want to upgrade eventually anyway so can go top tier components straight away.
@RoadsideRC
@RoadsideRC 7 місяців тому
Since you have previous experience, I agree that going with a kit would make more sense. If you are going that route, I do suggest going with something from Yokomo, ReveD, or even the new Redcat RDS chassis. The MST RMX is starting to be an old design.

@RoadsideRC

Yes, it does need a battery and charger. Here is what I would recommend. Battery: almost any 2S lipo will do for the stock power system. This one future-proofs you a little. amzn.to/3THy0jv Charger: I have had great luck with this one, and it will also future-proof you with up to 6S capability: amzn.to/3UYuZww

I would like to add that people need to really keep up on tire rotation. Front to back them often. And when the wear gets towards the face of the rims, on all rims evenly, take the tires off and flip them around so that you again have some millimeters of tire to work back towards the face of the rim.
@RoadsideRC
@RoadsideRC 2 роки тому
Ah! See, I purposely don't do this. Every time you move the wheels, you are changing the contact patch, which will really impact performance. I leave each tire in the same position for 100% of the life.

Im kinda getting the hang of the drifting but plugged a gyro into my setup & I guess it doesn't work with my servo. But I feel if I keep driving without gyro I maybe able to get it down but dont think I can really get the counter steering down as good as a gyro would.

Great vid. Well said. I’m currently back in the tuning stage now that I’ve moved to a Tamiya A80 Supra body on my YD2S. Unfortunately this body runs a bit narrow (185mm wide) and after getting the wheel fitment dialed in flush, its handling differently than I’m used to. I have the RPM toe and camber gauges that I use on my ARRMA Granite, but unfortunately the toe gauge isn’t too useful on the YD2 due to the gauge’s large size. Do you recommend a specific toe gauge for rc drift cars?
@RoadsideRC
@RoadsideRC 2 роки тому
Thanks for the nice words! I honestly just use a tape measure when setting toe for most situations.

Great questions! There are really only 2 RTR RWD cars. 1) MST RMX 2.0 - the blue one in this video 2) Yokomo YD2-AC The Yokomo is a really poor value and you will rarely see it. The MST RMX is basically the only RWD drift car, RTR, that is worth buying. When I filmed this, it came with a rather poor gyro. However, I recently saw that MST is now sending them with a new gyro. I have not personally tested this gyro yet, but hear it is MUCH better. As for electronics that are important: - the gyro and servo are very important. Perhaps the two most important parts in your drift car. - then it is the controller. This is the one part of RC where I do support folks getting nice controllers. ....and that is about it. The motor and ESC will make a difference in the longer run, but are VERY low on the priority list. The blue car in this video still runs the stock RTR motor and ESC combo and I can drive with most folks at our local track using it. I hope this helps!

Note to add to the gyro factor; some receivers have built in gyros that need to be activated. My DumboRC has a button that needs to be pressed 3 times to enter “gyro mode”. That can also be turned off with 3 clicks of the same button to go back to “normal mode”. Amazing videos, been watching for the last few weeks getting ready to start RC drifting for the first time. Unfortunately we have no tracks near me so driveways/parking lots is all we have, but still want to get door to door with the homies. 🤘🏾

I believe you are talking about the throttle exponential. I do that to "soften" or "numb" the trigger in the mid-throttle range. More movement on the throttle trigger = less change to the ESC. This helps the car drift more stable mid-corner. I run this type of exponential on all of my cars, but different amounts based on the specific setup.
