      My fist RC was one of those zip zaps that you could buy in a RadioShack. Then I owned a losi 1/32 truggy. Followed by the losi brushless 1/24 truggy/rally car. Recently the axial scx24 crawler. It’s the ability to RC indoors for me.

    @caseys_cozy_garage Před rokem +53

    I got one because of this video and the drift tires! It's sooo much fun! One thing I've noticed is that if you set the front springs softer than the rear, the drifting becomes more predictable. Take out the spring spacers that live on top of the front springs. This promotes oversteer in real and rc cars. You'll find the car less likely to snap back out of a drift when the slip angle is small. There will be a really small amount of ground clearance but otherwise it makes sliding with those open diffs better

      @r0binx Před rokem +1

      Just got one and it is so much fun with the drift wheels. Thanks for the tip with the front suspension. I would also check how smooth the diffs are. My back one was very sticky, so took it apart and managed to get it smoother. Made it much more predictable and easier to control.

    Do you need to buy lock nuts as well as the wheels or do the lock nuts already on the car work?

      @@TomleyRC I just received mine. it's very fun to drive. But the engine heats up a lot and very quickly. The drivetrain is not smooth. Is it the same with yours ?
