Nez0's Bad Shoppe @ Strickly Sidewayz: Yokomo MD 2.0 "Master Drift" Shakedown Out Of Box

[@freerangehuman1976]

Great video spot on analysis. Please upload a video if you’re able to tune that front steering slop out of the vehicle. Setting negative toe accurately was difficult on the yeah racing alignment rack. I was only able to get it to float somewhere between 2 and 4 degrees negative toe instead of an accurate 2 degrees negative toe that I wanted. Your channel hands down is the best on KZbin for new drift product reviews.

[@BadShoppe]

Thank you for watching! :D I do my best to review things :D

[@ryanfonseca3270]

I know it’s an old comment but maybe someone else can benefit from this if you don’t, but if you buy the “hard” 4.8 ball ends for the yoko BD cars they have way less slop than the ones in the kit. They even take more effort to pop onto the ball. Also check your slide rack bearings are adjusted correctly so the slide rack doesn’t move up and down. Those two things made me able to set the front end up down to .5 a degree

[@ezveedub238]

The stock Yokomo 4.8 ball cup ends in the kits have too much play. I use the Yokomo BD9 HARD 4.8mm Ball End Caps (B9-207A) to take out the slop from all the suspension links with play. The steering knuckle ball end position is the same location they show on the SD 2.0 manual also I see.

[@BadShoppe]

Ah good to know about the hard ball end caps :D Yeah the mistake in the SD 2.0 manual looked the same.

[@joshuafreeman]

Thank you so much for this. How many ball cups did you end up using to get things tight?

[@ezveedub238]

@@joshuafreeman I use the B9-207a ball cup ends every where a Y2-207a end was used, so suspension arms and steering links and tie-rods. For really short ball cup sizes, you can trim down a longer one from the set if you need to.

[@rustynail2188]

I’ve been on the fence between this and the SD 2.0 what’s your thoughts between the two? I still can’t understand why it’s so difficult for Yokomo to put a decent out of box tune on their drift cars. My first drift car was a MST because when I looked to buy a Yokomo there was additional bump steer and things to correct before the car was worth using. At the time I couldn’t drift much less tune. I’m more versed now and these are just minor annoyances. Lower the price $100 and send it out with no tune. Pay NezO to tune them. Thanks for your efforts in putting these reviews together really appreciate it!

[@BadShoppe]

I'd go SD 2.0. A lot of people are preferring the SD 2.0 to the MD 2.0. I feel like they changed the MD 2.0's front end too much and it was unnecessary. The SD 2.0 feels better to me. Also Thank you for watching! :D

[@seeksend3832]

Hi, I hope you have a nice holiday 😁 I have a question that is difficult for me to decide. Could you please give me some advice? . Right now I‘m hesitating which model to choose. In terms of flexible and easy control Continue to customize and product quality between Yokomo SD2.0, MD1.0(limited color), MD2.0. At first I wanted MD2.0.But when reading comments from many users, I found that I was not very impressed with that model. Thank you so much ❤

[@BadShoppe]

Hello sorry for late reply, i personally love the SD 2.0 and the MD 1.0 coloured versions myself :D

[@joeyg1463]

can you do a tuned follow up on this sometime please and thanks

[@BadShoppe]

Possibly, this car was built up for the Strickly Sidewayz shop as a pre-built car

[@Andrewoval]

After owning md2, I’m convinced an Rdx is a better chassis. Even the guy I sold the md2 said it’s a trash chassis. Anthony Torres has one of the best md2 I’ve ever seen tuned and he still used his overdose galm to win sds at elite drift shop.

[@druvski]

Nice video💪🏼 what are those wheels?:)

[@druvski]

I now they are ReveD from your text but what model

[@druvski]

Ok found them haha sorry😂😅

[@BadShoppe]

my bad hehe I usually forget to put the exact model of the wheels

[@druvski]

@@BadShoppe no problem 😅✌🏼

[@joshuafreeman]

Will you do a tuning video on this one pleaseeeee?!

[@BadShoppe]

So far not at the moment, the chassis was lent to my for filming.

[@mattbrc]

Interesting review.👍 do you think the md 2.0 is really worth the extra over the sd 2.0

[@freerangehuman1976]

Save the money get the SD 2.0 if it’s your first drift car. I have built both the MD 2.0 for myself and the SD 2.0 for my son. If you get the SD 2.0 just add the scale reflex rear esc mount for a better esc mounting position and better rear weight.

[@simon_says_shhh]

Or get an MD 1.0 and all the same changes need to be made.

[@BadShoppe]

Yeah I would recommend the SD 2.0 or the MD 1.0 v1.2 (coloured) chassis over the MD 2.0

[@ryanfonseca3270]

You think the super drift 2.0 has the same build manual error with the knuckle ball stud location? My car had crazy toe out when links put to the manual settings, and swapping the ball location the same way you did here gives the same result…

[@BadShoppe]

Yiss i think that was also the case, I remember something like this. Was a quick fix but I did like the SD 2.0 more than the MD 2.0 to be honest.

[@Limitless_Potato]

​@BadShoppe what about sd2.0 vs md1.0?

[@MCD_OCD]

Can you share the wheelbase of the 2.0? Impossible to find the info

[@BadShoppe]

I'll have to get back to you on that

[@dosfeos]

I'm looking to get into drift rc between a yokomo rd1 and a reve d rdx any recommendations, ive raced short course truck so have experience in tunnings

[@BadShoppe]

Reve-D RDX has been my go to recommendation for those coming from a racing background and it's been working well :D

[@Kong-rj5sm]

All these years of drift kits and they're manual and out of box set ups still suck

[@donavinmoller2432]

Some times things are tested and also reve d made a great out of the box setup same with the rd 1.0

[@BadShoppe]

yea lately the out of box tunes have been not very good as a starting point and some have had flat out mistakes which should have been more obvious in quality check dept.

[@392_zikk]

That was scary lol

[@brentpollock4137]

Knolage is power thanks for sharing your thoughts ✌

[@BadShoppe]

Thank you for watching! :D

[@392_zikk]

Cheffs kis

[@Purple_0690]

MD 2.0 is doo doo.

[@rustynail2188]

Out of box it is for sure!

[@BadShoppe]

Some people have reported being unhappy with their tuned versions of the MD 2.0 as well now

[@peteranthony3134]

Which Yokomo chassis kit is considered the best one?

[@BadShoppe]

hmm tough question: depends on bang for buck or out-of-box comparisons etc.
