Honest Review After the Beating: Kyosho MK2 2002 Subaru WRC

Күн бұрын

Here are my thoughts about this 1/10 scale brushed rally rc car by Kyosho. I pitted it against other RTR 10th scale on-road rc cars I've owned and still own.
See the playlist for a look at how I put it thru its paces and how I arrived at my decision, then let me know if you agree in the comments. I look forward to hearing from you.
Stay well,
Bris

“Handleable” lmao 🤘 . Thanks for the thoughts, Ive been looking for thoughts videos but nobody has talked about it like you have. Throttle control training is a must when trying to drift. Looking forward to more videos! Heavier oil will make it slide out easier on loose surfaces, softer oil will give more grip. Does the sway bar kit come with options like soft medium hard?

@bigbristv Ай бұрын

Yes, yes, and yes 😅 I really appreciate your saying this man. Drifting a 4wd/AWD does take serious throttle control, especially w/o gyro assistance. Also, the sway bar kit comes with 3 levels. I show it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJu5opykbt2Mqcksi=cHHZgP8SDDSTIEdg

I have one. Love it! Did the metal center drive shaft, motor mount, front CVDs, motor heatsink, and sway bars. I also have a TT02 rally, and its great but the Fazer is better. Especially out of the box.

I love this! Thank you, especially since now I don't have to buy a TT02 to compare 😁

@MauzyrockRC Ай бұрын

Looks so plush! I am so tempted. As for the TT-02. It is a great platform to tweak. So many after market parts. But if you want something in the similar quality bracket, I would skip the TTs and go XVs. Night and day. Cheers!

I have this just used it on polished concrete in apartment garage, your right drifts crazy… mine is just stock though. Cool to see your one turned up to 11.

Nothing like coming home from a long day at work and chilling out with another drop from bigbris. Cool car my man, keep it and keep running it thru the meat grinder. :)

Additional con, it will start to rust in the wet. After I drove in wet dirt every screw that was in contact with the dirt started to rust. Body pins, steering ballheads etc. were rusty. I also had to rebuild the rear right bearing, because it was only moving with some force. Btw. I run mine with a 3000kv brushless combo. It rips with 2s and with 3s it is almost too much - if you're going to drive it Rally style and don't want to go for top speeds.

@bigbristv Ай бұрын

I really appreciate the info. Just came from ripping it on 3s in the street. Does 48mph easy and shreds tires. On my second set. Planning on keeping her dry, but when she does get "a wash" I do make sure to dry then lube everything. So much fun once you get used to driving it. 😁

It is definitely fun, especially with a gyro. I use a Radiolink R7FG receiver with a build in gyro.

@bigbristv Ай бұрын

@@Dreiviertel isn't it amazing how a little help from a gyro make driving this thing that much more fun? I wasn't having a great time with it in the beginning because I like driving full throttle all the time 🙃

@rcplaytime Ай бұрын

it is a cool car, pretty tough also, i have something similar, hpi wr8 subaru, its awesome 👍👍😃

I gonna install a Reef's gyro soon, check out Jetko tires for better rubber. I run them on both my Fazers, dirt and tarmac Rally cars

@@bigbristv my pleasure, power hobbies stocks them under their name so if you find the rally tires in stock order and you get them next day on regular shipping in the BRX. You should get the tarmac tires 1st and maybe the chunkier dirt ones too.

@shafiqjan1474 good to know. BTW I just came up from running mine on these and boy what a difference! www.ebay.com/itm/203034649999?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=XPFMXGPQSSa&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=CDZ7EHayQkm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

@@bigbristv Tires are the most important piece of the suspension puzzle to solve. I am a MTN biker too, it's all about the tires. If they aren't correct you're F'ed and things won't be fun. As an RC racer off and on road I know it all too well.
