Awesome upgrades Troy. It looks like it handles, accelerates and brakes great for what you need for drifting! The car looks fantastic ! Great work brother!
Great video to help guys setting up their RWD drift car. Good on you Troy. Front wheel touching at full lock is a very common problem causing the car to spin out (by effectively braking that wheel). Thinning a turnbuckle at the contact point is one solution. I pop the wheel in a lathe and skim off the inner rim as much as possible to give more clearance. You could achieve the same thing by rubbing on sandpaper. If the tyre is touching the shock absorber spring, either move the shock inboard or space the wheel out with a wider hex or rims with more offset. Another solution is to use the MST FR-F tyre which is rounded and so gives more clearance.
We forsure love these types of videos ! I forsure find myself waiting on your drift content! It’s reallly helpful we love it ! I drive a overdose galm v2 it’ll be great if u have one of those on there 😊❤
@@RoadsideRC I have four of them. 2 have counter torque and 2 have moving motor mount. I have other high end cars (Sxiii, NGE, MC-1) and have built many other cars, but to my mind the Galm is a beautiful piece of engineering at a reasonable price. Love 'em.

Our local track is going to be building a drift course soon and I am really looking forward to getting into it I think I'm going to go with A D5 like what you run but I have a interesting body for it
Fast servos are bad from my experience. I'm quite fond of the sp-02Dv2 servo. It's the smoothest out of the box servo I've found. Smoother than the rs-st which is a close second.
@@RoadsideRC Its for a friend its an ftx banzai which is a budget rc but thought you may have some info. I prefer crawling and bashing. Thanks for taking the time to reply.
@@paulnorton7444 Honestly, your friend is wasting time trying to mod that chassis. A proper RWD chassis can be had for as little as $100 (Sakura D5) and will perform better than that chassis modded.
Asking around to figure where to set my low voltage alarm. It's a 4800 mAh 2s 7.6 130c. If you can help? Thank you in advance! I am extremely new to drifting and have learned that my having had a stroke does me no favors in small moments LOL.
Here is my total drift playlist: Drifting: ruclips.net/p/PLzanpL0DCFXwS2G2MIRhKqL6MEDP6fEdf I plan to break out a specific tuning and setup playlist at some point.
I thought his car was AWD? Doesn't need one for AWD, the gyro will just mess with it. If I am wrong, this one really surprised me with how well it did: amzn.to/3T4vG6V
AWD typically doesn’t need a gyro. I never really needed it and I had a TT-02D. You can get away with a receiver gyro or even a cheap Amazon gyro if you think you need it but being AWD, once you learn to power slide it without a gyro, you’ll realize why no one uses them with AWD. Now RWD, it’s an absolute must! Without it, you’ll get super frustrated driving the car. SuperG has an article about gyroless RWD drifting if you’re interested.
Making a series Rc Rescue is not a bad idea, i don't add the Drift is possible you will be rescue even rc outside of drift category, still i learn a lot, some problem you show are not take in consideration
ProtoForm VTA ‘68 Mustang body. A few guys in my town drive with them. Troy even runs a Protoform TransAm on his car! Good bodies, super light and cheap.
cool content loved it until you attacked the arms/end joints instead of just using a suitable offset rims to solve the problem, sakura rims are 5mm offset if youd just used 1mm spacers or 6mm offset rims you wouldnt have to damage the chassis parts for a quick fix sorry just this kinda thing annoys me when stuff like this happens great content tho. love these vids of you fixing other peoples setups its great because they have a chance to enjoy the hobby rather then sell out early without getting a chance to enjoy it.
Thanks! That is fair feedback - I actually do this on most of my drift cars to help with steering angle while still keeping the body fitment. So far, hasn't caused any issues for me!
The wheel stopper also doesn't allow the maximum angle, I wanted to give him as much steering radius as possible. I have done this to many drift cars, and never had a break at that spot.
@@RoadsideRC I find that kind of weird I have the yokomo yd2 EX I also have the yd2sx3 and both of them have stoppers and with the stoppers it clears everything.
That's awesome! Very cool to pass some help along to someone else! 👍
Exactly! I am excited to see him drift with us!
Excellent work!
Thanks for all the great information 👍🏼👍🏼
Glad to help!
Happy patient and some nice beside manners. Well done doc 😁👍
Thanks! Glad I could help him out.
@@RoadsideRC it's pretty awesome what you're doing for the rc community, much appreciated!

You are right! Many ways to solve it.
first like yeeeee. Another great vid. yeah more of the drift rescues would be chill.
Thanks! I do like them.
Respect man for helping that boy cheers
Thank you!
Awesome vid, and Kudos for hooking the kid up!
Happy to help folks get into the hobby!
Awesome Video! Love these RC Drift Rescue Vids!
Thank you!
This is why I love your channel
Thanks!
without doubt your the man to fix it
*always full view💯Au👍thumbs up*
Also love the paint job! ... and the tips!
Thanks!
Nice thing you do and always enjoy and learn from keep it up
Thank you!
This deserves more likes!
Thank you.
3:55 that servo is insaaaane! Lmao!
Yes! It is quite fast!
Cool 👍👍👍👍

I love my 299 lp for drifting. I highly recommend it for anyone. Super responsive and you can keep it through many different vehicles
Thanks for the tip!

I agree with you. Especially depending on the chassis steering rack setup. Some need very little movement, so speed isn't important.
RC Drift Rescue
Great vid on how to.Is there a video of yours that explains how to get a greater steering angle.
What vehicle are you attempting to get angle on?

Don't stress about this too much.
Your ESC should have a low voltage cutoff (LVC) that protects the battery.
Gotta playlist fir these kinds of videos??

GYD450 no longer available. What replaced it?
The GYD470 and GYD550
Hey Troy, I need a cheap external Gyro for Grayson’s car. Any recommendations. It’ll never see a track, just driveways parking lots or possibly ice

@@RoadsideRC ok yeah it’s awd.. that’s perfect, he can throw the receiver in there and go 😁
My man.., is that a Pontiac or a Chevy Nova in the garage?💪
1971 Chevrolet Chevelle!
You could add a spacer to the wheel
Good point!

Any chance you know what body that is?!?!? 😮

so yokomo or MST 4 u?

Instead of filing parts down and making them weak why don't you just put the wheel stopper that come with the kit.
The wheel stopper also doesn't allow the maximum angle, I wanted to give him as much steering radius as possible.
