Sweet! Thanks for the shout out Adam! I should send you some seats! even though yours arent recaros.

[@georgeh5156]

You should see if Kpop RC will give you/ or sell you his replica of your car once he is finished

[@toxicf8841]

George H he has a good replica

[@DutchDayzGamerz]

indeed his is awsome

[@Chad_5215]

George H he put him in his description

[@alyssapeanut1135]

George H he also has 3 bodies since he messed up 2 of them but they're still decent

[@georgeh5156]

William Snyder but the paint was messed up on the other bodies.

[@B95_P]

The tires on a drift RC are like hard plastic, not ideal for another slick surface such as tile. Probably would work on a very low pile carpet or even very smooth asphalt. As you can imagine, the front wheels need a little it of grip to allow the back end to change direction predictably so the tires and surface you are running on are going to entirely dictate how it handles. You can definitely get a different radio probably not necessarily from Traxxas but if they hook you up with something then go for it. What you want is the ability to adjust both the end points(sets or limits travel) and the dual rate which adjust the amount of turn that equals the travel of the servo in both directions . You could also just get a slower servo but I think having the adjustment in the radio would be easier/better. Most radios that are available in the aftermarket have these adjustments and you could actually get 1 radio with multiple model memory and use the same radio for all of your r/c's..just get a receiver for each new vehicle you have. You can store the models and all of their settings individually. Good luck~

[@lakigames9395]

hahahahaha I don't know how you caught that!

[@justinbarber8332]

@AdamLZ with a RWD rc drift car you need that gyro working. The receiver has nothing to do with the steering issue that you mentioned. If you want to tone down the steering you can adjust the steering exponential. you can do this on a stock traxxas radio but its easier if you have the Traxxas link app and adapter for your phone. This will make ut easier to make changes to the radio settings. The Sakura D4 has a ton of steering and that steering speed helps you catch the rear end in a slide. I hope this helps. Please feel free to let me know if you need anything rc related.

[@Woyta]

Also RWD is not good for begginers.It takes some time to get used to. Counter steering setup (4WD) is easier to drive. Drifting on concrete, softer wheels plastic tire, increased gain on gyro and some practice. I think tha iis all he need at this moment.

[@MetroDnasty]

Vojtěch Nekvapil actually I find that when you switch from cs to rwd I had to relearn how to drive, steering inputs are very different different from one another

[@Woyta]

Not that much (I got 50/50, CS, RWD drift RCs. Not to mention Short course, expedition truck, etc ) RWD is more throtle responsive and front wheels dont pull you out of some situations like in 4WD. With Sakura he can decide if RWD or CS (4wd) is better for him. (Realistic or easy to drive)

[@deanhubbard3605]

for $300 its a steal especially being custom with the extra wheel. its a bargain. its not meant to get traction on the floor. but the controller needs changing

[@LuxxyHD]

really cheap the chassis is one of the best RC drift chassis you can buy and they cost around $300 the body work is amazing and you can adjust the steering too there should be a configuration somewhere on the remote or you could bring it to a RC shop

[@bryanschmidt3497]

Luxxy yeah but he can go MST RC much better materials

[@bryanschmidt3497]

our check out rc mart for his dakura d4

[@bryanschmidt3497]

so that he can dully build the rc in carbon fiber and aluminum parts

[@Havok412]

Actually the chassis is $109. You just gotta buy the electronics. Definitely a good chassis though. The price he bought it at is really good given the upgraded aluminum parts it has plus electronics. Could use a better transmitter though.

[@kevenscan]

It' looks like you got also a LYPO batterie and charger with the car. Just missing some red underglow neon and your dialed!

[@jacksonbusch4265]

A radio that has adjustable steering end points would fix the steering problem. They do make many different tires, but it depends on what surface you are running it on.

[@GTTwincam]

This radio has a lot more functions if he reads the book and get into the menu, no problem drifting with it.

[@RealHobbyRc]

GTTwincam the standard TQI remotes don't give you enough adjustments. Flysky is a nice inexpensive way to go but Spektrum has a lot to offer.

[@GTTwincam]

I drift with a Sanwa M12, my son drifts with a TQI stick and if you enter the menus via blinking you can adjust a lot with one of the potmeters at the front. I have both a DX3R and a GT3b but the latency on steering does better with my trail rigs

[@shirokami6504]

Definitely such as the tactic ttx300

[@TheGrantman83]

+AdamLZ On the remote there will be dial to turn the steering ratio up or down. The tyres you have are meant for the road, you want a more grippy compound for surfaces with less grip and less grippy tyres for surfaces with more grip. Raising the shell slightly will stop the tyre bind on lock. I am Australian so we spell tyre differently to how you spell tire. If you want any other advice feel free to message me.

[@MiniMorris97]

The controller does *NOT* need changing. There should be a dial on the remote next to steering trim that can control "exponential" Try turning it left and steering should be linear!

[@Wydltr]

Yes...

[@mitchellwolk9558]

MiniMorris97 that's what I was acting in my comment!

[@ethanhaynes777]

MiniMorris97 yes

[@lil-_-jacob6273]

MiniMorris97 i

[@infinite8626]

Yeah. He's correct!!

[@BryceandKyle]

Drift RC Stuff: Get a Sanwa MX-V remote vs that Traxxas remote. You can get some different tire compounds from MST. Most people drift on carpet or smooth concrete, tire compounds will make a difference along with correct suspension setup. When you get back home go to JDM Speedway in Sanford & they'll really help you out. You can also check out BlackStar Hobbies on Apopka (They're a big influence in RC drifting).

[@mathiascalleeuw5363]

Scrapeddd Media a spectrum dx4c is also a good resever and it is cheaper

[@SorryCounter1]

Thin carpet and smooth concrete are my go to spots, it's a million times better than kitchen tiles.

[@BryceandKyle]

Low pile carpet ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

[@connergreer9434]

Mathias Calleeuw al I run is the dx4c

[@connergreer9434]

I usual drift on smooth concrete like a garage floor

[@NickRCYT]

$300 is a good deal for that car. It is about $200 new as a kit with no electronics. If you add electrical tape to your wheels it can add some more grip. You need the gyro to work if the car is RWD. If you press the throttle the other way it brakes and you can use that in your drifts. It mainly just takes lots of practice. Would love to see you do more rc drifting videos!

[@charliejoewhitby]

only pussies use gyros in rwd xD

[@NextGenesis88]

I have a mst fxxd, and I got it $150 rolling chassis, you got it for a complete deal. I spent $300 on one body alone.However,the surface you're drifting on is uneven because of the tiles, driving in your driveway would be way better,yet you will need different tires and to tune your car.you can't tune your car well do to the remote, but tires for your surface I would recommend either hpi tdrifts or mst gold dots.If you have anymore questions hmm on it @traplowered

[@rakkish3562]

Man i been driftin with rc for 6 years, check the radio you have a steering rate knob, you should be able to turn down the steering angle, now in that radio idk if you can (if its possible its hard because its a single led button menu, where you read how many blinks to know what options you are on) other radios even cheap 70 bucks radios from futaba can turn down the speed at wich the steering moves and even add a delay for the return or make the return of the steering slower. you can do all sort ofthings manage throttle curves and everythings with the right radio and speed controllers, ifyou need any help hit me up no problem, ill explain everything to you :) (the traction issue its not just the tires, which do help getting different compunds, but its simply that rc cars are very slidy and you have to learn to feather the throttle also adjusting the gyro helps)

[@ryanpecoraro5921]

Hi Adam my name is Ryan. I am a rc car enthusiast. I have over 10,000$ in rc cars and I live in Clinton Connecticut. If you go to the hobby shop like Branford hobby in Branford Ct, lee hobby in Groton ct, amatos in Middletown ct and there is more hobby shops near you in northern ct. just put in a search and you will find 10 to 20 shops near you or in ct. I would like to meet you someday. I have a skate park in my town. It is all concrete and hurts if you fall so wear pads if you come. Sincerely Ryan Pecoraro

[@ryanpecoraro5921]

[@ryanpecoraro5921]

Jimmy Oakes if you get a complete car for 4 to 500$ and get the body you want like your drift 240 and paint it it the same color. they make your wheels too. That is the easy way of doing it. It is a good thing to start with a ok drift rc then you buy aftermarket parts that are aluminum. I love your videos you make(pineapples are life)

[@samkunugi5319]

The Sakura rwd cars are absolutely beasts to drive. I work at a hobby shop and in my experience, Most rc drift cars are awd and not rwd. It makes it way easier to get clean drifts with it. With a rwd setup like you have you need that insane amount of angle just to keep the car settled through a corner. They are a challenge but loads of fun to drive. And for the remote. Get on the traxxas website. There is a way to go thru a menu on the remote with the set button to adjust and change steering dual rates and end points. Good luck! Sam

[@joserobles2887]

Its better for you to get 4 wd if your going to start a rc drifting for a hobby because it's more controllable and more fun. I recommend the Hpi drift 2 flux.

[@DummVines]

Jose Robles I'm just beginning and I have a sprint 2 aswell. It's great for beginners

[@patrickcollins6449]

Jose Robles No, the Sakura is way more tunable than a sprint platform. What he has now is a great introductory kit.

[@DummVines]

Patrick Collins the Sakura is rwd though, rwd is much harder to control

[@patrickcollins6449]

pinefruit That's why people who drive RWD (I do both rwd and awd) use a gyro.

[@DummVines]

Patrick Collins I can't argue is I've never driver a rwd, but I've just heard even with gyro it is still harder to control

[@jeettopiwala8743]

Finally kpop rc getting some recognition

[@SHONTONGA06]

change the lever that the servo connects to.. the way it looks now is the short side is connected to servo, and the long side is connected to wheels, and you need to lengthen the servo side so that it takes more leverage to move the wheels same amount. with the shorter side on servo, it doesn't take as much movement to move the wheels so much.

[@mitchellwolk9558]

Trim the steering it worked with mine but does controller really not have a trim knob???? Kinda surprising because when your making a drift rc you want maximum control over your steering and I would suspect that the dude that was making it would have spent more money on the controller.

[@DummVines]

Mitchell Wolk same here, I only have a basic sprint 2 and I spent heaps to get a decent controller before I did any mods

[@stevencrellin9842]

It does it’s the base model traxxas radio

[@maddave9198]

ADAM: TIP FOR RC Check the dual rate on the remote for steering trim left and right and a second nob for dual rate speed, It will alow you two slow down it down but the type of servo that it has is for a fast rate. i suggests sticking with for a while and get used to how it drives. I personally dont run with any gyro for assisted counter steer, if your trying it out with it on mabey try it a time with it off and see if you like it. I hope the tips help you :)

[@royalismydaddy3737]

It's better to use carpet or concrete for drifting especially for a real wheel drift drift car

[@ronsaps26]

Nice! I got a black 240 I painted. And in answer to your pice you spent $300, that seems to be about right.

[@MindVessel]

For higher speeds with a more powerful motor you can use rubber compound tires. For slower drifts on black asphalt you can use plastic tires

[@GoofyGoodrasTCG]

cheap radio is a spektrum 4c. that steering your talking about is the epa adjustment you can do with the 4C, the traxxas controller you have no adjustments other than steering trim.

[@Grimfate20]

Fyi, if you're going to get in to RC cars you should definitely look at getting a 3d Printer or make friends with someone who has one and knows how to design parts in CAD. I picked up my first printer for $99 so they're really inexpensive nowadays. The reason i say this is that you're going to break parts, and since its a custom RC car you're gonna need to have a way to reproduce the custom pieces.

[@spike4850]

Grimfate20 hey which one did you get?! I did a lot of research a few months ago but gave up on the idea of getting one. I'm still open to getting one but a super cheap yet good one would be great.

[@ronnietjikoeri9965]

Grimfate20 i wouldnt 3d print chassis components. just visual mods like air splitters in the back and miniature seats like KpopRC did

[@LivinLikeLarry47]

Which 3D printer did you get? I am looking to buy one.

[@Grimfate20]

I got the iMakr STARTT 3d printer. If you're looking to get a 3d printer for RC parts i'd suggest one that can print ABS plastic with a heated bed. I see no reason you couldn't print chassis parts out of ABS or maybe even PLA+ from eSUN. Also if you're printing with ABS you should have an enclosure. If you're much of a DIY person you can make one yourself or many printers come with one but they're more expensive.

[@quinns7210]

Grimfate20 ii

[@dodgemagumhemikiller4326]

hey Adam don't buy a new transmitter yet, the linkage from your servo to bellcrank is to long that's why you are getting a lot of angle with little use of the transmitter, I'd recommend to get a shorter steering linkage before you get a new transmitter cause you'd have to More than likely get a receiver for it. but your doing amazing on the vids! keep it up!

[@RealHobbyRc]

caleb buchanan Trust me the more angle the better. It's just a matter of can you use it. You want it to go sideways as much as possible.

[@ragekamikazi8655]

adam when ur going into the turn with the rc as soon as you get side ways start to "pedal" it or tap the throttle

[@andrewredline]

Usually the piece which connects to the steering servo on the car will have multiple mounting holes for the tie rods which are different lengths from the center of rotation from the servo. If you change where the tie rods are mounted, and mount them closer to the center of rotation that will change your steering ratio and make it larger which will effectively make your steering less sensitive on the controller.

[@danievanderwesthuizen4188]

hi adma this is one of my hobies also love kpop channel that is a rwd chassis you got there a replica of a orginal sakura d4 good for beginning and just dubble side tape that gyro on the lower deck in the middle and you will need a 3 channel radio that radio is for rtr kits ready to run and a other reciever will help with the steering and you can adjusted sensitivity on it so much more I can tell you but don't wane write a book and if you go deeper in this chassis you spend more time on it as on the real car lol

Adam, look into Spektrum radio equipment, you will be able to buy multiple receivers (one for each of your traxxas vehicles as well as your drift car) and use the same radio. I personally use a DX4R pro but something like the DX4C would be fine for your use; they also have an android based radio called the DX6R, pretty sweet! I will post some links at the bottom of this comment. For getting a better grasp of your drift car look into drifting on carpet and just like real life different tires make for different feels! If you upgrade to an aftermarket radio you can adjust many things; Exponential, dual rate, and a plethora of other things! Also look into steering servos (Spektrum makes them as well and are of great quality) Have fun with your rc 240! Also, these rc drift cars and the racing kits (yes some of us race these rc cars ) have just as much if not more adjustments than full size cars; camber, toe, ackermann, roll center, shock oils, shock pistons, motor gearing, shock angle adjustments, sway bars, chassis tweak, and even more!

[@quentinc1275]

Adam, if you want a controller with a lot of wheel play, get a flysky fs-gt2b. They're 27 bucks for the whole receiver and controller on eBay and it has a lot of steering wheel turning compared to the traxxas controller. Like this so he can see it.

[@luksimon]

Hi Adam, if you are still using wideband which needs calibration, than dump it in the river. Use LSU4.9 wideband which are more accurate and actually works well. And leave controlling failsafe on your ECU which can react faster and with more effective ways, not some gauge.

[@micahjiganie5298]

also you can adjust the steering on the remote

[@matthewkropf3612]

Your Sakura d4 normally comes as a kit which is around the price you bought your d4 for and you can adjust the steering and the the rubbing just rise the body a bit if you would like a easy way to drift get a 4 wheel drive conversion for the kit and if you need to know any more just let me know Matthew Kropf

[@Bigdadmoto]

If you want to slow the steering down a little there is a arm that comes directly off the steering servo with a linkage that runs to the front just move the end on the servo down a few holes and it will slow it down a lot

[@staticshittah]

Since its a Sakura D4 Im pretty sure you can switch it to all wheel and rear wheel as well and if you wanna change your controller I suggest getting a Spektrum Dx4c and get some HPI T-Drifts

The bumpers are suppose to come off, they made it so it's sort of realistic if you hit something your bumper will fall off, and if you look into buying a spectrum radio you will be able to turn your steering sensitivity down, and $300 is a really good price for a rtr and for the Sakura d4 is pretty expensive as just for a kit

[@bradleypullen1648]

you can find different tyre compounds for the different surfaces your driving on, and you control should have exponential which you can use to adjust the sensitivity. if your controller doesn't have it, get a controller that you can bind with the reciever or if not get both a reciever and transmitter. or else the car cannot talk to the controller and nothing will happen

RC WHEELS - I use 2 inch irrigation pvc (because it's black) and if you buy a piece, usually 5-10 feet, the store will cut it for you.. So I have the guy cut the pipe into 1" sections, and you get about 20 or so sets of RC drift 'tires'. Snap those on to the rims, and maybe hit them with a dot or two of model glue, and have fun sliding!

[@johndabomb01]

Try driving it out on the road, it's prob got a lot of understeer because the tile is so slick. You can also get a softer compound for the front wheels. Maybe convert it to awd? There a lot easier and smoother to learn with

Hey Adam, its not likely you will see this comment, but I will try! I am a huge RC enthusiast, and love the realistic features of this RC you got! I have a few tips for you. .1 is for the tire rub on the body, the mounting posts on the car should be able to raise. If you raise them, the tire rub should be gone. .2 is for the sensitive steering. getting a new remote would work for sure, but you would have to get a new receiver as well. So keep that in mind. However if you get a new remote, get one with dual rate controls, that will help the sensitive steering. .3 is for the traction. You could get some rubber tires that are still drift capable, but some rubber tires are a little tacky and wont drift. I hope you see this comment, I love your videos. I dont get to watching all of them but see most of them. Hope you have un with your RC drift car ;)

[@jacksingh8690]

You could just change or add on to the steering wheel/tire on the transmitter with a bigger one for more fine tune steering or add more material to it to make it bigger to achieve the same thing.

[@lock_estunts5685]

It is supposed to be a little bit of movement is a lot on the car. But to change it where the servo meets the arm you can put it on a different hole preferably an outer one

[@eliotmerrill4289]

You should be able to look on the radio for a dial that will adjust the sensitivity of the steering knob!

[@MacFilmsmain]

hey Adam I have the same Sakura d4. I am a technician at a hobby store and I can help you. I recommend you switch out the radio for many reasons 1 being it's traxxas. I recommend you get a flysky or m12. or those you can adjust the expo(aka the power of turn based on angle of wheel on radio) in a split second. and 300 is cheap AF I spend well over that on my set up

[@tomwhite2364]

you can get a softer tyre compound wich will give you a little more traction

[@eliwilson6828]

Hey Adam I've heard that putting a little bit of tape on your plastic drift tires helps with traction

[@icyphilippe]

there should be a trim on the controller somewhere for the stearing ratio so you can make it smoother

[@danielpinkham4526]

also don't use a traxxas or any rtr transmitter get a speckturm or futabuta more control and can bind multiple cars to one receiver

[@alexandrebrundula1183]

For a drift rc that is an amazing deal and yes it is the tire compound that is slick and u can buy ones with more grip !!!

[@connorw.h7549]

change the setting on your transmitter to slow the steering response down

[@mattellis7878]

Before you buy a new remote, check the remote has a dial that says bind on it. If u turn that, it should make the steering less sensitive

[@lysanderheath210]

change the rates and expo on the transmitter, (the controller)

[@rocketbunnyboy0323]

300 is an amazing deal for what you have. Do you know the company that made those aluminum upgrades? I think you should maybe add some gain to the gyro to help counter more or feather/lighter on the throttle and add more when you need it.

[@layer.0481]

Hear in Seattle Washington we have an rc drift track "kong rc drift ". Judges from Japan are coming for a competition in july

[@305_cowboy]

Hpi makes special tires for this depends on the floors you are using to drift and also you got a good deal but it absolutely needed some love when you got it

[@beast_slayer-bf9yg]

The car you can get rubber tires for more traction on hard wood or you can get foam for concrete traction but plastic for drifting basicly enywhare

[@projectrandom1886]

you have to turn the steering right down on the controller so the servo stairs slower

[@PatrickLuiplayground]

first thing u may need to upgrade for ur rcdrift car will be the remote, try sanwa mt-4or mt-4s, middle range remote with affortable price, second will be ur gyro, got for MST or D-like. after that, u may need to check the steering, acnkermen all that.

[@cadencarlyle412]

You should also talk to Medic at RCSparks Studios if there are any other problems you have with any of your rc vehicles

[@Daniel-dm9xp]

kpoprc's is much better it has the same engine bay like ur 240 it has moving turbos the same cage+seats the pop up headlights and backfire

[@shanerighton520]

if your on hardwood then pit a rubber compound with plastic in it. then it with help get round the corner a bit better

[@rjdom2677]

Adam if your willing to spend a little on a computer radio you can change the EXPO. that will make it smoother to drive. You might need to put a different receiver in it so t will communicate with the radio.
