I funded MODIplay in Kickstarter, the company that produces the Drift cars, and they announced over Kickstarter that the MODIplay product is now the Carrera Hybrid.
This could be massive especially in a slot car club , your limited with slot cars this looks like you could get the numbers in to really bring in business that’s on a different level in the hobby of miniature car racing . Fantastic Carrera pushing boundaries and trying something different 🤦♂️
It looks interesting but... sealed batteries in cars? That's a no from me. Who has a wireless controller with a dud battery? I'd like to see different curve radii and maybe a pit area too. There'd also have to be different cars as well. Just a though Carrera - have plain cars but supply livery sheets so you can customize your car to be unique.
I dont think this product is for me, nothing about it just jumps out at me at all, this might change. Im excited for those that are excited but personally, Im good with Carrera Digital
Nice one Trav, thanks for bringing us this. Seems like in the short term this could be a hit but I am not convinced long term. I know you can get mini RC so is this an attempt to appeal to that audience? For me RC is engaging because your actually driving, can you drive the cars without assistance? If you can then that would be awesome.
I agree, Paul! I remember the Micro Machines from my childhood. I also miss the Radio Shack Zip Zaps and X-Mods. I still have a few X-Mods I won't let go of 😂@@SlotCar2021
I see it as a bridge between their toy / rc line and slot car line. it would be nice if while they are in the business of building apps, they bring a new race management app for Digital 1/24 1/32
I had the hot wheels version which was a good idea that just didn't work as planned. So having said that this will be a pass unless they really do something unexpected
Are they remotely controlled cars or not. People use the term AI without even knowing what it means. I think there was similar race car sets out there 30 years ago. There may be a little more sophisticated. It is still lipstick on pig.@@lucasrem

That's just a knock of from Anki Overdrive
The cars are Sturmkind RC Drift. They posted a video on their CZcams channel talking about Carrera Hybrid from CES. The video is in German.
Hopefully they can use the NASCAR license with it, would be a blast with stock cars
Why you need license cars ?
Outstanding 🎉🎉🎉🎉
This will be interesting to see. Especially in the larger cars.
Keeping an open mind, this could be HUGE!!!

I completely agree
@@thatslotcarguy done super job to get this out to the community mate 🙏 this looks awesome
Awesome!
Awesome video bro
Looks good fun!
Not what l was hoping for in a hybrid but still very cool. Bring your own 📱
I love the Driftcars from Sturmkind👌❤️

You can change the battery very much easy but it's not a easy click and plug. So it's not intended to change them fast.
8K subs and climbing! Awesome!
Cheers mate
Interesting and has potential. You need to try get your hands on a set for a proper test.
Fingers crossed I can get a test set
This is like the old Anki Overdrive system. It was bought out a few years.
Similar but not Anki
Yup thats a collab with Sturmkind and their Modiplay system thats is/was at Kickstarter 😉
DR!FT HYBRID GAMING !
I dont think this product is for me, nothing about it just jumps out at me at all, this might change. Im excited for those that are excited but personally, Im good with Carrera Digital
Yes, it comes from the inventors of "dr!ft" , the german Start-up called "sturmkind".
"Dr!ft" btw is the best invention since the Gameboy 🥰
I need it... I want a Ferrari 488GT bundle
I wanna know what number 40 Porsche that is behind you?

You can drive with no assistance (expert mode)
I agree 100% Paul. I am most curious as well as to how much of the car control will be at your fingertips.
Trav answered that question... I guess I shoulda read his reply 1st 🤣
@@SlotCarHooliganthat is what I would do 😂, Ryan this gives off Micro machines vibes to me racing on tables and making crazy courses.

Looks pretty cool. Rc with computer simulation
This being successful will hugely depend on pricing

Is this going to be the future of racing, or will actual slot cars still be more popular?
This is cool but all these types of systems the cars are so slow.
So from memory the anki cars when I used them actually got up to some pretty good speed.... only time will tell
Not slow. Realistic. That's the look I love.
anki overdrive
It's Anki
Meh, why would I buy this over regular Rc cars? Looks cool, but I will stick to Carrera for slots, and Losi, Traxxas, or Tamiya for RC.
Klyd d kross
You don't understand what it is, Ai cars, you can only correct their behaviors.
Not RC, and not on slots !
Virtual tracks they do !
With Online Multiplayer!
PASS !!!! Already been done and didn't work that good !!!
All I see is RC race cars.
LOB
Ai driving, you don't understand it, LOl !
read what it is please, why cry on CZcams ?

Rc cars do it much better
Old men hate this one product!!!
This is just Anki overdrive but re-branded
Don't think so
Nope, that is very wrong as you can already see from the video. Anki had no free steering, off track driving or simulated car physics.
Wow really new.Ohhh wait Anki Overdrive Ahhhhhhhh
I don't agree it's the sane
Anki Overdrive. Nothing new here.
Its a childs toy. Wrong way to go Carrera.
