$45 is a bit steep in my opinion. If you look around on AliExpress they are around $25 give or take and they usually ship and arrive in under two weeks. Amazon will take the same time for shipping and charge twice as much, I don't think they have two day shipping for them yet and yeah I don't blame you, let him beat one of these up and get some practice in before graduating to your Mini-Z's haha

Great video i have all 4 i did give them rear suspension where the screw goes that stub i put a spring over that and screwed it down but kept it just a little loose it works on all of em not the best but it’s better than nothing
@AirToGroundRCFPV5 ай бұрын
Nice, that's not a bad idea. Def better than nothing but ultimately you are just giving the body suspension. The rear wheels are still stationary with the chassis so I was thinking about chopping the chassis in two and making something similar to a T-mount suspension kinda like you see on Mini-Z MR03/04 racing chassis. I know it's gonna be a pain in the *ss so we will see how it goes lol

@@evanwillard2811 I figured you did, just stating the obvious lol but yea the T-mount is one method I had in mind and some kind of shock mount is also on the table. I want to make each wheel have it's own suspension but I'm pretty sure they are both connected to a single rod to the motor so that's probably not gonna happen. I'll figure something out when I rip it apart hopefully. After I'm done with my LDRC NSX I'll start working on that.

@AirToGroundRCFPVАй бұрын
You can definitely keep the motor but the mainboard may interfere with body depending on the shape of the car. If its more box shaped you could possibly keep the electronics but if its like a Lambo, Ferrari, McLaren, etc. then you will have to switch out the electronics to something smaller/lower profile.

I don't know, I haven't had that issue yet. So you are saying the rubber tires are getting stuck to the car body or plastic wheels, I'm not sure which you mean? Are you running them really hard and they are melting to the wheel or do you mean they are hitting the body?

@AirToGroundRCFPV3 ай бұрын
No the rear wheels are connected by a solid straight metal rod. Only the front has a little plastic differential so I may take that from the front and design it to fit in the back and make it RWD. And it's locked.
@middleclassproject3 ай бұрын
@@AirToGroundRCFPV well, but since it's in front and the car is made for drifting i assume it's a one way diff... isn't it? If itwas totally locked a solid metal rod would have been enough, and if it's not locked it wouldn't make sense unless it's one way... agree? :)
@AirToGroundRCFPV3 ай бұрын
@@middleclassproject Yea I agree but it's not. It's a short tiny metal rod with a plastic gear and plastic cups attached to the ends. It's way too small to be a one way since that would be very hard to make at that size without being expensive and they didn't even make an open design either. So it has a locked front and back diff which is obviously not ideal for drifting and why the car doesn't drift as good as it could. **It seems that the old version cars have all plastic front locked and the new gyro one has a little rod with plastic locked so I may have to take them all apart to see if that's true since I've only opened up 2 of them.**

If you put a new receiver on it you need to add a new esc as well and just remove the stock electronics since it won't be needed anymore and there is no easy way if any to add a receiver to the stock board, it all has to be switched out to after market parts. I'm going to do that to one of them in the near future.

@@steviefpv I was in the same boat my friend. I've been building fpv quads for over a decade from 6s 6in builds down to tinywhoops and these RC cars are much more simplistic in some ways with one motor, one esc but also are kinda foreign mechanically compared to drones. It took me awhile to get the hang of them after I got my first one and it was much easier to get a youtube channel going on mini RC cars since there are not as many channels out there on this stuff compared to building/flying quadcopters. I don't know when I will do that video so it may be a few weeks since I'm doing multiple projects at the same time right now so hang in there.

Great comparison. Would you disable the gyro if you're going to race instead of drift? Or maybe just lower the gain?

Thanks man, I would actually keep it on and lower the gain since it keeps the car stable on straightaways so it's useful for both driving styles. The only problem is that the battery has to work harder so your driving time gets cut in half.
