- Join us as we take the plunge into the old days for us and show newcomers the easiest way to take their ready to run cars and get into doors at their local track!
We spent a total of $150 in week 7 adding a set of Yokomo SBBS Big Bore dampers with all the fixings! The ride quality, stability and overall feel between these dampers and stock is more than noticeable. Out on the wide line and making snap transitions while riding max angle is my favorite benefit from this upgrade! The lineup of Mods harmonize well and really leaves us with one last needed feature... TIME FOR A NEW POWER PLANT!
Drop us a comment below if you're excited to install some high end schtuff with us next week!!
Stay tuned for more to come from Project Get DOORS.
Really enjoying this build series
Gens Ace Redline 130C 4000mAh or Reve D 2s LiPo Battery 100C 3700mAh... If you could only have one pack or the other which would you rock?
PS: I can't get enough of your content! Thank you for showing your build, it's been a lot of fun following, I look forward to mirroring your mods on my rig whenever it arrives!
I’d take the redline all day. $20 cheaper, 5 grams lighter, 30 more C rating and 300 more Mah rating. It’s a no brainer over the reve-D.
Didn't even know those e clip tools existed, gonna pick one up and not yeet e clips all over my basement anymore.
Yes I’ve been hungry for one of these videos… I’m very close to adding a drift rc to my collection thanks for the videos
A trick we do on Tekno 8th scale cars is cut the spring collar oring in half and just use half of it. Perfect middle ground between easy to adjust and confidence in consistency of your settings. They all but don’t turn when you use the whole oring on Teknos so it’s necessary with them.
Great tip! I worried about the collars moving without the oring installed after coming from a heavier off road background myself. Drifting seems to be such a low impact type of driving that I have yet to see any of my damper collars move even under the harshest drifting conditions. Might have to try the middle ground with a half oring
Gj dudes bet it's nice to get the track all to yourselves occasionally.
💯💯💯
Man I'm trying so hard to get my hands on the MST RMX RTR kit but having a tough time. This series has made me even more hungry to get one and start my rc drift adventure.
Where are you located?
@@ScaleScience Texas. In the DFW area.
@@Swoldemort500 look up DARC (drift America RC) they are based close to you!
@@ScaleScience Yes! I saw them at an event recently and have joined their group on fb!
Did you get one? They’re in stock now :) How do you like it?
Must have that tool thanks guys. You are champions
Side note. The first track is fire 🔥
🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Just got RMX 2.0 kit,I enjoy the video keep them coming. Looking for good ecs an motor
yea taking my stock motor and esc rmx to the track i realize how underpowered i am too, whenever people get behind me i cant keep their pace and chasing they lose me in the faster corners
Real life feels haha. We need mo Powah Babehhhhh
So my kit came with gold springs for the rear. I think I will grab a reve d spring pack to play with a bit. I see others have mentioned that being a ton of spring load. Wish I had paid closer attention to the piston details and I'm also curious still about the different o rings and pink vs grey diaphragms on these shocks. Next time I rebuild maybe
The Orings are just more hard or more slippery. Colors change from manufacturers etc but essentially the are al doing the same thing.
Diaphragm or bladder changes will alter the rebound characteristics of the damper to have more or less.
@@ScaleScience sounds good. Is the grey more rebound than the pink? Is there another diaphragm? I always replace o rings when rebuilding due to swelling and such but if they are all about the same I won't worry as much
Questions maybe you guys have tried Hobbywing Drift motor and ESC? How does it compare to the Acuvance system?
Thank you 👊
I’m not too sure about the esc but I run the motor, and it’s on the quieter side compared to a absolute1 and the dx1, but it is very smooth
Smooth and buttery! The Hobbywing is pretty smooth too honestly however with our 4pm radio, we can control and tune the XX esc from our radio and not have to pull off for a program card. It makes tuning easier IMO but without the radio, stick with a Hobbywing setup for ease.
@@ScaleScience I have Futaba 7PXR and love it but still learning more about it little by little. Thank you for your reply bro! Great channel you have loads of great info on drifting👊 I need to learn more but in time🤞
That seems like an insane amount of preload front and rear. Why not switch to R-tune springs; soft in front, med in rear
That was essentially to get the springs to seat and give us any lift. Going to play with some various springs in the future!
When are we going to get episode 8 ? Lol
It’s a big episode! Sorry it’s taking us some time to get it all on paper!
i repeat dont use anything sharp on the shaft it could damage then if you dont use towel or shock pliers
Keep the sharp stuff on the threads and you’re safe*r lol
Jordan where can I get the vacume shock station I NEED THT message me wen u get a chance
One thing, from a newb, that would be helpful is WHY are you doing the mods? I think it is clear that the radio was a big issue with the low sampling rate. What was the deficit with the gyro, setup, etc.? :) REALLY enjoying the series, I am building a drift track in our 14x24 shed and my RMX 2.0 S15 will be delivered today cheers!
So it’s hard to explain without the feel side of things present. The driving videos in each segment are kind of the showcase of the best of its abilities and if you notice how the car is driving with other vehicles and it’s line specifically it’s in essence the why to the what. Definetly will try to explain the mods better in the future thank you!
ever tried putting just 1-2 drop of oil in the dampener instead of flling them full? saw a guy do that in a vid and hed been rc drifting for 30 years alongside some pros.
I have and while I have felt it could be beneficial, generally dampers requiring no oil are usually just in a state of poor performance and in switching them out for a higher grade of damper, I’ve gotten the suspension action I desired and could use the oil to its full potential.
@@ScaleScience i see! found the video, "afro rc yokomo yd-2 sx3 part 2" at about 19 or so minutes in
@@MrKillerHobbes Afro is a legend and definetly knows what he is doing. Keep in mind the dampers will have essentially no dampening and if they do, that would indicate their is stiction within the stroke (up and down of the piston) usually associated with the Orings, guides or the plunger. Once those things are sorted, you’ll need oil or you’ll pogo stick bounce away haha
@@ScaleScience i see what you mean! yeah makes sense to use oil fully for sure, just something i saw and i wasnt sure which was correct. Have you tried the ReveD RDX chassis?
@@MrKillerHobbes I have. Check out latest video out ;)
What shortcomings are these shocks going to fix on this car? Im coming from the oval and offroad racing scene. I have run some on road touring cars too. Just trying to get some perspective on what big bores could enhance on a drift car over the stock ones. Just trying to learn. Looking forward to getting into this. I may get a kit though. I LOVE building the cars almost more than driving them lol
Mostly down for adjustability as the Yokomo dampers have every factory part available including shafts, guides, bladders, low friction Orings and they are silicon based rather then mineral based so tuning options for fluid viscosity is limitless.
@@ScaleScience awesome! I get that! How much droop do you set in the shocks? Like my on-road touring cars there isn’t a lot of travel but droop is still important. I wonder if its a factor here?
@@vorteco7692 for best results tuning, best to join our Facebook group and get some opinions on the matter. Scale science rc
Can't find the camber kits online at your site 😕
MST parts have been hard to source but looking to get some here soon
Hi lads has this series ended now?
No sir, we were preparing for our spring Matsuri! Now that it happens concluded we will be continuing on with the series!
@@ScaleScience BRILLIANT LOOKING FORWARD TO WATCHING SIR,🇬🇧🇺🇲🕊️✌🏼👍🏼
What body line tape did you use I need some
It’s from AxsionRC on instagram
What color combination does Daniel have on hi S13? Looks nice with the TAKA livery.
Metallic purple and fluero pink
@@ScaleScience thanks, I appreciate the feedback.
What camera do you guys use for the on track shots
The Insta360go2 was used for these onboard shots!
From where you take the music?
