Professional 'Entry Level' RC Drift Car!

[@henning.a4646]

The wheels are spot on, perfect look for an E30.

[@TomleyRC]

Yes, they look so good

[@marxnex71]

The bit with the cones moving on their own looks like the scene in Toy Story when they're trying to cross the road 😂

[@Newedge03]

That's exactly what it reminded me of 😂

[@TomleyRC]

Hahaha

[@Tipman2OOO]

You have made zortron laugh. Please take this as thanks. ☻️

[@youknoweverything7643]

As soon as I saw that I was gonna comment same thing haaha

[@driftmanjirc]

Great video Phil! thanks for the tag. The main difference between the 2.0 and the 2.5 RMX RTR is the 2.5 has the newer style spur type gearbox and the MGX gyro has end point adjustment. The servo is also placed mounted front to rear instead of left to right and the ESC is placed out over the rear of the chassis, great cars for the money and we actually use the 2.0 RTR as our hire car.

[@TomleyRC]

No probs mate. I’ll have to come over for slide… I’m sure your only about and hr or so from me

[@driftmanjirc]

@@TomleyRC yeah roughly 1 hr and 20mins or so, welcome anytime dude

[@stetchkov]

Love how detailed these RC cars are. I see you got the staggered offsets for deep dish in the rear and as much as possible in the front while keeping fitment in mind. Just like a real car. Doooope!

[@ozaricblox]

Phil you’re the man…. Gets a German car buys BBS wheels. Absolute legend.

[@michaeldorich4485]

I know nothing about drifting, but I have watched some drifting on carpet. This car performed very well in my opinion. For a rtr brushed car I was very impressed. I think the fact that you took it outside and ran it on the parking lot shows, as you said, you can take it outside and have a good time. The car is not cheap, but when you look at the quality if the gyro, steering angle, and the way it's geared for a brushed motor I think there will be people out there buying them as a result of your video. Thanks for sharing.

[@TomleyRC]

Yes, these are not cheap, but very good quality

[@michaeldorich4485]

@@TomleyRC I agree100%.

[@SINNER_01]

That rig is INSANELY beautiful!!! I'm not even in to the drift genre but, I'd own that just for eye candy.

[@MMRCx]

So I bought a carrera go for my daughter for xmas and now here I am watching all your videos 😂 cant wait to order something, kinda between this one and THE truck.

[@TomleyRC]

Haha… it’s easy to get hooked!

[@DustyFingersRC]

That is a proper looker!!!! Those wheels finished it nicely 🖤

[@TomleyRC]

Yes, I was so pleased when I fitted them 👌

[@DanjaBis]

Been into rc drift massively since march and it's so much fun. mst RTR stuff is pretty good out the box

[@TomleyRC]

Yeah, if you have somewhere to go or some space it’s certainly good fun 👌

[@DanjaBis]

@@TomleyRC Certainly! I'm fortunate enough to have a few tracks dotted around me so have been visiting those. Midlands Drift warehouse in bednall staffs and Ronin drift lounge at leicester are relatively central for the midlands and then there is NRD/Rattrap up in wakefield if you're a touch further up. None of them are carpet track and definitely worth a visit as the surfaces are great fun to drift on.

[@TacoBac]

I've had an RMX 2.0 for around little less than 2 years and it's been awesome! I never needed to adjust anything. Although I just had my receiver/controller go bad. Only a $92 fix and now I get a much higher-quality controller! These are definitly one of the best ready to run drift cars you can buy at the $300-400 price range.

[@AnthonyDutter]

Do they come with the radio, charger and everything required or we have to buy all this apart from the car? I hope it's actually all included because i only find it for 450€

[@TacoBac]

@@AnthonyDutter it doesn’t come with the batteries or the charger, I paid around $100 for both. You have to look at all the websites, some are cheaper like $350

[@Rocky_crawl]

Can you use any battery or is it specific?

[@TacoBac]

@@Rocky_crawl You can use any battery as long as it has the same style connector and fits inside the car.

[@ericfarar827]

Love how good you build race cars, RC cars

[@law7116]

This video re opened my want for an rc drift car. I grew up playing with xmods and it was almost impossible to drift those. Now these look so fun and can drift great.

[@AkuaGarage]

Man you just sent me in a nostalgia trip, I completely forgot about xmods

[@osmeltorres07]

xmods!!! yesss. i had the silver RSX and a red Supra. I use to wet the wheels and try to drift the car lol I had so much fun with those things.

[@FarmerFpv]

I don't even care for drift cars. I only watch it cause you're knowledgeable, entertaining, and always make me laugh. lol.

[@RCMK_X_SMITHMASTER]

Great video! The RMX 2.5 looks like an impressive entry-level pro drift car. 😍 Can’t wait to see it in action on the track! 🚗💨

[@jotabe00]

The E30 body is no less than gorgeous. 😍

[@stephendrivick840]

Cool....the drift race course changes as the wind blows. Very challenging! :)

Happy New Year David 🤘

[@adammcg5]

I had no idea they had a brushed option! A great entry option for people to give proper RWD drifting a go! Thanks Phil 👌

[@TomleyRC]

Yes, a little cheaper than the Brushless, and drifts nice 👌

[@ballistinarwhal7530]

@@TomleyRC so would you definitely recommend brushed over brushless? I’m trying to get into my first car

[@donkeypoop8064]

@@ballistinarwhal7530 you should get it to start and then swap it out for brushless

[@snipezpro9554]

better brushless! drifts hella better then brushed! unless ur new into it you'll go for brushed brushless allows for more wheelspin more angle and overall a better drift when used to it

[@WCPRCModelsCraft]

Lovely looking body on that. Looks great. Brushed version does look perfectly adequate. What a nice looking and drifting model

[@TomleyRC]

Yeah, it’s certainly a looker!

[@TIPPYtoeup]

That split between the cones was sick !

[@rcmakingtracks18]

Not really into drift cars, but have to admit that looks awesome. Thanks Phil. John

[@tylerseabook9423]

Me too. Soon as I went rwd it was love at first sight

[@TomleyRC]

It’s really satisfying when you get a good run

[@fatchunk3678]

Man, scale drifting needs to be the new scale crawling. Love it

[@SharkysGarageRCandMore]

That is stunning. Its worthy of an interior.... So well set up from the factory. (Blue you say ..... )

As a current owner of a silver E30 on bbs wheels a big thumbs up, might look into getting this little beast.

you should and they better be RS wheels and NOT double dish...

[@roblow8126]

hands down one of the nicest rc cars. have a good new year Phil

[@wolfenher6937]

This is a nice simple setup from MST. The old 2.0s come with a brushed or a brushless setup but since this is the 2.5 version, I’m guessing MST is gonna stick with brushed setup for the 2.5 version for now until they decide to make a brushless version. I have a Yokomo YD-2 AC RTR version instead of building a kit version but it’s not cheap at all even for a brushed setup only.

[@TomleyRC]

You can already get a Brushless RTR… I think it’s about 100 more

[@icabodpsillycyberman414]

Thats something Ken Block never had to deal with-wind blown obstacles🤣Good effort👌👍

[@lo2713]

Looks great drifting around, cracking choice with the wheels aswell 👌

[@dankforest]

Amazing review. This is exactly what i was looking for! I can get a new remote with gyro trim and its perfect! Price is oerfect too! Thanks again Tomley!

[@TomleyRC]

No probs 👌

[@rcloner1895]

You can make adjustments to the rtr versions, they already are using shims on the upper and lower front arms, pick up some m3 shims and your set! Caster and Ackerman can be tuned out the box and it’s tuned by changing how the top front arms are mounted to the bulkhead and I believe the steering arm itself can be mounted a few different ways. Only warning I have is if you plan to run outside. Throw in the spur gear box

[@rcloner1895]

And that new MGX gyro is soooo much better than the lsd from the last batch of rtrs

[@rcloner1895]

One last thing. You want your front offset to be wider or at worst equal to your front offset. It will make your chassis muchhhh more stable while in angle.

[@TomleyRC]

Awesome, cheers dude

[@buss1205]

as someone who used to rally a sakura d4, u do not need a spur cover lol

[@wordreet]

Heehee, I love it! Just about my fave BMW for a start, they have the looks and colour and stance just right for a street drifter. It's ironic that most people don't get that drifting is all about grip, technically. But especially in full size cars, good tires are essential, and of course, practice

[@TomleyRC]

Yes, it’s quite complex when you look at it. Not just a case of spinning the rear wheels and turning the wheel.

[@gabrielpichardo1492]

So that’s that new self adjustin drift track hahahaa

[@mikeymike3240]

MST rims are amazing, I’ve got a set on my MK2 Ford Escort rally car in the Heat colour scheme configuration . 😊. That Beemer looks stunningly amazing 😻 and the wheels totally finish it off. 😮

I’d love a real E30… clean ones are not cheap!

[@philiprccars4340]

@@TomleyRC Yes, they are becoming rare now, but the good thing is that they are second generation fuel injected cars, so all the flaky management systems were replaced by Bosch units on the 1989 to 1992 models. However my favourite of the E30's still are the 1985 to 1987 318i's with the M10 engines from the 1972-1975 2002 Tii BMW's.
