Pocket Drift Car with Gyro! Unboxing, Charging & First Drive!

- In this video I unbox, charge, and drive the 1:76 scale RC drift car from Turbo Racing. While this likely won't satiate my need to get sideways in the most epic manner, it is the size of a hot wheel, and that is cool AF. I figured it would be an awesome little RC car regardless of how well it drifts, because honestly, I'm not expecting too much from something this small.
I have been itching to get back to playing with my RC cars, and recently came across this little mechanical wonder. It was advertised as a fully functional drift car with perfect counterbalance and a gyro to maintain the drift. Say whaaaat?😲
Okay, intrigued...then I saw it also comes with additional bodies to paint and is the approximate size (actually slightly smaller) of a Hot Wheel, which I still have plenty of, many from when I was a little kid. So, that was pretty much all I needed to hear; trigger pulled.
Come with me on my journey to find an exciting and fun RC drift car!
Where to buy? Boom! Enjoy. 😁

Not gonna lie, I half expected the radio to moan when you inserted the battery holder. 🤣
Good video, I subbed.
Hahahaha, dang...how did I miss that? LOL
Thanks for the sub & the morning laugh 😂👍
This is gonna be awesome once they get a good racing one out on market we can build race tracks and rc race just like ppl build ho scale slot car tracks that are insane this is whole other level full control rc racing at ho scale
great vid/review. Can you tell us what was the range on this is? I'm thinking about getting four for my nephews, so they can do a live version of Super Off Road in the garage. Thanks
Thanks so much! Honestly, I haven't tested the range on it since I am usually sitting within a few feet of it, however the transmitter operates on the 2.4Ghz FHSS, so your nephews should have no problem playing with them in the garage, and even all of them playing with the cars at the same time. Hope that helps!
@@shawn_of_the_shred perfect, cheers
Nice bro you're my favourite youtuber. I was searching for these things for very long time and now it is only available in usa and iam from India by the way love from india❤

Thanks for the sub! Have fun with your new car!
just ordered one, cant wait for it to come home
Link please?
Hope fully u don’t get scammed
Is it good or nah
@@johnnydepp8949 nah don’t get it, I purchased it 2 months ago and it never came. Big scam and waste of money and time.
Dropped mine off the table and its fine. Also put a fpv camera on it. It sucks because I didn't need it, I didn't want it but I bought it and now I need another to race against. These guys are not cheap either.
I feel ya, haha...but it's fun! It's surprisingly robust for such a small car with mini electronics. I am rather pleased with the durability so far.
Could u give a link to where you got the fpv camera???
I WANT ONE RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ready aim FIRE!
i saw this video after i bought the car from slidey boys. I’m exited for it to get here but kinda annoyed that i could have got it cheaper and faster on Amazon. thanks for the review!
No problem, enjoy the car!
I descover this car today is amazing broo the prize is very elevated but is The best ❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊
Enjoy, it's a fun little car!
God gameplay
Would have had better gameplay footage, but I was involved in a minor fender bender in the parking lot (as evidenced in the video) and the next 45 minutes was spent filing a police report...hopefully next time. 😁👍
How do you bind the car to the controller?
There is a small pin hole/bind button on the bottom of the car. It should be just across from the power switch. If the car is not bound to the transmitter, you may get flashing headlights only, once you bind, they should go solid, and you will hear the gyro once connected. Hope that helps!
Hi I bought one these little drift cars but whenever but when I try to use mine the rc lights just flicker is there something i can do to fix it? I mean i put new batteries with the controller it comes with but I have no idea how to get it working lol i would really apreacite the help
Hi! Are they flickering, or just flashing? If they are flashing at a consistent rate, then you may need to bind the car to the transmitter. When the battery in my transmitter died, mine started to flash, but once it was charged and bound to the transmitter again, they went solid. To bind, there is a small opening/pin hole on the bottom of the car, just across from the on/off switch. Press that and it should bind to the remote, hope that helps!
Where did you buy them? I don’t wanna get scammed
Amazon
Amazon has them for like 80 to 90 bucks now
Bought mine from Amazon. It's a fun little car, hope you enjoy!
go and look for slidey boys ❤
Dont buy aliexpress
If I buy a few, can more friends play with them at the same time, or will the frequency interfere with each other?
Each one has own frequency I’ve watched videos with guys with like 3 racing them
@@dominicsimonian3402 thanks man!
Can you buy me one? 😅
@@nostangaldamez3874 I ordered a few, they never came. It was a rip off.
How does it hold battery and functionality, is it working properly and what price is it?
Price was 100 dollars but they’re on sale for 30! Just ordered the green skyline!
@@brentonquinn9815from where, for me are out of stock
Battery is 55mah, so it runs for about 30-45 minutes, and takes about 30 minutes to charge. Works well, fun little car. Can often be found on sale, but was around $130 when I bought mine. Link below and in video description!

@@shawn_of_the_shred Is the battery swappable? It would be good to change a new battery when the previous one is charging.
I believe these are actually the same cars as the slidey boys ones. Both are labeled as turbo racing c64. And look the same and seem to be the same. But ones about $30 more for no reason.
That's good info, thanks! Also, thanks for watching!
Slidey boys, skid motors, turbodriftUS are all dropshippers. They sell rc cars at a extreme markup while they all claim they made the car. Very scummy of them all.
Yea drop shipping you can find the same ones for like 20 bucks on a different drop shipper instead of paying 125
@@topg.tyrone5543 where'd you find it for $20??? $80 is good but $20 sounds crazy.
@@topg.tyrone5543 where did you find them for $20? I've been putting off getting one but $20 seems good.
nice.
Thank you!
Yooo you play CarX drift? Nice.
Oh, absolutely! Probably the best drift game I've found so far. Reminds me of the old Yuke's D1 Grand Prix drift game on PS2, but way better.
👍
hi i bought one of these from slidey boys . mine is shaking even while driving straight. can you please tell me if yours did it well. Im thinking 3 reasons. 1)the floor is bad 2)it needs adjustments from the remote controller 3)its broken :( can you please help?
Hi @muratozkan8394, thanks for watching. Hopefully it isn't broken, not sure if I can help but I'll try. When I got mine, it did take some time to adjust the settings and get it to drive smoothly. The settings on the controller do help, but you may also need to tune the suspension if you haven't yet. If you take off the body, there are adjustment screws for the front suspension. You may have to adjust these slightly by gently tightening them down all the way and then backing them off about a 1/4 of a turn at a time and test driving it. Once you get it to respond and steer as you want, you can then try adjusting the settings on the controller. The following are my settings:
TH-LM - 20/50/100 is set to 100
ST-REV is set to NOR
TH-D/R is on setting 5
ST-D/R is on setting 4
SVC is on setting 5
ST-TRIM is dead center
Hopefully that helps!
If the car shakes when driving straight, your SVC setting is too high. The SVC setting controls the gyro's sensitivity/response. I've had success with setting it to about the 60% mark, but it should work fine anywhere between 50-75%. Note that the more you turn down the SVC, the more the car will spin out if you give it too much throttle or turn too sharply. So if you turn down the SVC a lot, you may also want to slightly decrease the throttle setting and/or steering setting. Otherwise, you just have to be much make much smaller movements when steering and giving throttle. Lastly, if you prefer your SVC setting higher for drifting, like 75%, you have to go slower when going straight, otherwise the gyro will make the car shake, or just never go straight and instead always be drifting. It is a drift car after all

Sorry, totally thought I put that in the description. It's there now, and below as well for your convenience. Thanks for watching!

Yes, bought it from Amazon. There should be a link at the bottom of the video description.
How long can the cars battery hold per full charge?
You can play it for about 30-45mins, and takes about 20-30mins to charge. Super worth it!
@@rgx_bp143 Wow definitely worth it 😁
Thanks @rgx_bp143, that's accurate for how long mine operates vs. charging as well.
@@shawn_of_the_shred yeah definitely, I got answers for everyone😁

How long was shpping?
I ordered it from Amazon, so it arrived in 2 days! Fun little car, especially on the right surface.
Hot wheels are actually 1:64 scale this is smaller.
Yeah, it's 1/76 scale. I believe I mention that, and that it is very close to Hot Wheel size...only those comparing them side by side will really notice the difference. Thanks for watching.
what was the game you were playing at 6:40
That was CarX Drift Racing Online, it is definitely worth checking out if you have not heard of it. I know part 2 has been out for a while as well, but I don't think it is available on console. If you play on PC, you might want to check that one out.
The original is available through:
Xbox store: www.xbox.com/en-us/games/store/CarX-Drift-Racing-Online/9N6FTC4QJMWN
Playstation Store: store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP4737-CUSA18938_00-0000000000000000
Easily the best drift game since Yuke's D1 Gran Prix on PS2.
Enjoy! 👍
The name of the game which you were playing in pc
CarX Drift Racing Online! Available on PC & console. I believe part 2 is available for PC, but not for console. However, the first one is updated regularly and still has a very large community, making for hours of fun tandems, trains, and general drifting shenanigans!

Turbo racing
Kind of noisy with the tires..
Yeah, the metal wheels aren't the most stealthy, but it's fun nonetheless!
is the car metal?
The body on mine, and the additional two unpainted bodies that came with it are hard plastic.
