- RC Drifting is one of the most challenging forms of RC out there.
Many people get confused as they try to setup the electronics in these cars for the first time.
One of the most common tripping points is the gyro installation and setup.
In this video, I give you 3 easy steps to confirm if your gyro is working correctly.

Other common issue I encountered when helping the guys in my area:
1) Increase steering EPA for both side but wheels still doesn't steer much. Reason because gyro end point was set too little, which limit the steering.
2) Moving the gyro and servo from chassis A to chassis B and NOT redoing the end points.
Good points! Thank you!
Very awesome tips for beginner drifters like myself. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge buddy!🙌🏽👊🏼😃
Always happy to help! Thank you!
Love the drift content videos. Your the reason I now have 7 drift chassis. My favorite side of the rc hobby. Keep the great vids coming.👍
Great to hear!
Glad I can be helpful!
You got me into RC drifting Troy. My wallet is getting a workout! 🤣
Ha! That happens at the beginning...and then once your car is set, the spending really drops off!
I been doing this hobby since my last baby and man it’s been 2 months and I been working with your videos 🆙💯
Glad I could help! Let me know if you have any questions I can help with.
THANK YOU! my rtr yokomo rd 1.0 had the end points stock completely messed up so i was wondering why it was so snappy and so hard to drive compared to someone elses also stock rtr car at my local track, cant wait to see if that fixed it
Fingers crossed! I hope that was it for you!
Troy you are the Man thank you Sir for helping me out with your videos on the Yokomo DP-302 V4 👍🏿💯💯💯💯💯

I have spectrum dx5 and can't figure out how to set my gyro up with it avc is off fyi
Onisiki gyro
In this video (ruclips.net/video/JASMtH1Igvc/видео.html) I have a section where I am setting up a DX5 with this car.
Honestly - my experience is that Spektrum electronics seem to not work well with most drift gyros/servos. Not really sure why.
Hallo Troy, can you make a Video how to use a power hd gyro g1 on flysky fs_gt5? Thanks
Hello there!
Have you seen this video? It will be very similar.
I don't have that gyro or controller right now. Would need to get my hands on them to do the video.
Futaba GYD470? What happened to the Reve D gyro?
Video to come on the GYD470?
Keep these great videos coming!!
Stay tuned! Video about to come out!
Hi Troy, loving your channel as I drift on carpet with a rwd mst what kg do you recommend as I'm thinking of getting a agf b44dlm V2 15kg, kind regards, Jason
Hi there!
For drifting, KG isn't really that important. The cars are very lightweight, turning very small tires.
What is more important is the quality of the servo. My go-to servo is this one: bit.ly/47AEXK2
But have also had good luck from the AGFRC drift-specific servo: amzn.to/3IawuD2
@@RoadsideRC hi thanks for replying, your channel is so helpful keep up the good work, Jason
useful information my friend
*left a like👍Au🎅full view💯👀*
Big thanks!
i have the powerhd smart gyro, I cant use the gyro nor the servo, If i have the servo connected to the gyro the gyro gets power but it doesn’t initiate and the servo doesn’t move at all. ive flipped the connectors multiple times… Do i need a transmitter with 3 ch? Im using a 2ch transmitter with a 3ch transmitter
Yes - you 100% need a controller that can adjust the gain. Otherwise, the gyro does not work and you can not set it up correctly.
Troy how do you compare the 470 vs the 550 futaba gyro?
The 550 is the pinnacle. But, requires specific equipment and setup to get running.
The 470 is 95% of the performance with much less hassle.
@@RoadsideRC thanks for the input. I went with the 550 but was looking at the 470 too just because its a newer release. Just waiting on a reciever to run it off my 7px.
@@RoadsideRC hey so now i got my new r334sbs-e and gyd 550. Trying to connect it to my 7px i just cant figure it all out. It says its for futaba digital servos only....is that true? I have a digital ecopower servo currently
I use yokomo V4 gyro and dumborc radio but i keep getting steering wobble and cant figure it out why.
Have you tried both hard/soft mode, plus assist mode?
Here is how I set it up: ruclips.net/video/RGg2N61qZjc/видео.html
I have the new dx5 pro and can not figure out how to adjust the gain
Unfortunately, I have never used that specific radio. I also have had really bad luck with Spektrum radios and drifting. They seem to not want to cooperate.
Try to find a specific channel on the radio that you can discretely control. Then hook the gyro to that channel.
@@RoadsideRC I think I have it figured out that was the only radio my hobby shop had and I wish I would have just waited and ordered one from online
Man I have a Yokomo rtr there’s no option to reverse the gyro on the gyro or the transmitter. There’s a button on the gyro but it doesn’t do anything at all? Even if I press it when the car is on, nothing happens.
My gyro and steering were reversed after I did a yeah racing slide rack install and now I can’t get my gyro to go back to normal. I didn’t even touch the thing, why would it have gotten reversed at all??
Unfortunately, the factory gyro is really bad. When you did the slide rack mod, it reversed the mechanism of the steering - which means you need to change the steering and gyro direction.
Your options are to (1) upgrade controller, gyro, and servo or (2) put the steering system back to the original setup.
@@RoadsideRC yeah i think I’ll just go the route of upgrading for now. I was able to reverse steering thru factory settings but gyro still won’t budge. Some fellas on Reddit said if you mount it upside down it will work and I tested that. It does work, so I guess I can just mount it upside down on the upper deck until I can afford new parts. Thanks for the reply man I know this is an old video kinda.
Hey I have the powerhd sg gyro and I plug it in like the manual says and it just locks my gyro one way and my remote can't even steer any ideas why?
It might not work well with your servo. Which one are you using?
@RoadsideRC I am using the AGFRC 15.5KG Low-Profile servo and I have a hpi tf-41 remote that I had laying around. The gyro worked once and I didn't set my endpoints and burned out my servo not sure if I burned the gyro up either it lights up and works just lockes everything up
I have a mst rmx 2.0 as a starter for drifting but after my servo broke down and I had to switch to a savox black edition 1251mg but after switching to the new servo my drift car doesn't drift anymore. Every time I pull in the throttle the care just spins in circle instead of going forward and initiating the drift when I turn. I didn't touch anything else beside moving the gyro to the middle because the connection wire to the gyro from the servo was to short so I had to move it. Do you know what could be the problem or is it because of my gyro isn't working right. My gyro is a stock one from the box and still turns when I lift it and move it around.
The gyro is reversed. Either move the reverse switch, or turn the gyro 180 degrees.
Hi, hope you can help me on my set up using futaba ct701 & gyd 470 & im experiencing a little wobble. How can i cure it? Thank you
Hello.
Here is how I setup the GYD470.
ruclips.net/video/Jy_tBabd12Q/видео.html
Please watch and see if it helps.
@@RoadsideRC yes i followed that but i get some wobbles.
@@markrodriguez5984 What is your gyro gain set at?
@@RoadsideRC 80 normal mode
What kind of camera do you recommend for attaching it a rc drift car?.
This one: ruclips.net/video/_h3AsgwRe-g/видео.html
What's the low down on that gyd470
One of the best gyros on the market!
@@RoadsideRC like it more then your go to 450?
Do you still have to set it the gyd550 on channel 3?
I don't have the GYD550, I have a GYD470.
Yes - set on channel 3.
You are the Joshua Bardwell of rc drifting.
That is a high compliment!!!
😱🙂🤩💥💯👍💪👏👏👏
Don't buy a gyro from china.
Extreme car wobble.
The same exact gyro from a legit shop does not have this issue.
Interesting! I get most of my stuff from AMain Hobbies, so no problems.
