Great video! This is on the list for my new chassis, as with one track day, the gearbox is already making funny noises! Highly recommend the 2.5 gearbox swap if you already have a 2.0!
Thank you! I figured it might help those new to the chassis!
@@turtlelaboratories it certainly will! Also! Where did you find that fan tunnel on the motor fan? 40mm size??
Where do you find the new 2.5 gearbox?
@@ChaseStevens1211 thats the only bad part with mst hard to find parts. the aluminum one would be it but its a little pricey
@@dmgp1f so the aluminum one from amainhobbies would work?
I think i need a drifter too🔥
Yes, you do!
Hey bro. Awesome chanel. I bought an rmx 2.0 whike back. Im new to rc drift and never understood why it doesnt come with reverse. Do i need to buy a new motor and esc or is there something i can do with the radio? Such a noob question i know but i want to get back into drifting. Also im thinking of building my 2nd ever drift car. What do you recommend coming out of a mst rmx 2.0.? Thanks brother
Thanks man! You should be able to program your ESC to allow for reverse, or brake and then reverse, however you prefer. I would stick with the RMX and learn the hobby a bit more before jumping into another chassis right away.
@turtlelaboratories gotcha. Yea thats the problem that im having. I dnt know how to program my esc. I have a yeah racing hacktronic. I can find any info online on it bcuz its outdated I guess. Some people have told me i need a program card but can't find that online also smh. I might have to upgrade my esc to current standards. When i first build the kit i bought high quality electronics thinking i would future proof my build lol.
How about the rrx conversion. Any inputs?
Unfortunately, I do not have any experience with the RRX, so I cannot speak to that.
What do you like better overall? RMX 2.0, Sakura D5, YD-2?
Personally, I favor my Redcat RDS over any of them. I like the Sakura D5 if you're trying to keep the budget lower. I would avoid the RMX 2.0 due to the transmission gearing, but the 2.5 is a solid car. I don't have top much experience with the Yokomo, but they are highly regarded in the drift world, and my buddy's YD2s is a good running machine.
@@turtlelaboratories sweet! Thanks for giving your opinion :)
This the same transmission in the 2.5?
It is in the same configuration as the 2.5, making the 2.0 much more stout.
What's the part number or a link to this complete gearbox set up?
Hi there! I have it listed in the description. The part number is: 210651R. It seems to be a little difficult to track down at the moment.
@@turtlelaboratories thanks. I've been trying to find the plastic version of the transmission case, but can't find it. I went and ordered the aluminum version of amain hobbies. $90 and it's the complete transmission. It's on sale now.
@@TheAusherGuy Wow that is SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than when I was shopping for one. I just hate that we have to spend so much to make it reliable as other chassis' out there.
@@turtlelaboratories I think they're trying to clear out the 2.0 inventory. The rrx kit is $110 on amain Right now and I got one of those too.
@@turtlelaboratories it does suck having to pay to get parts that it should of came with in the first place for these mst drift cars, but upgrading parts is part of the fun in building these. I think mst has the nicest looking drift chassis of all the drift cars. I don't mind paying for upgrades when they're on sale.
What it the mst part number for i can order that kit
Hi! The part number is: 210651R
