[Review] DumboRC G01 Gyro - Cheapest Gyro with EPA & Metal Case

[@ivanluhi]

Thank you very much for your gyro ranking chart! Really nice of you!

[@imy004]

I got the G03 it was a smooth drift indoor/outdoor on my Awd 284010 i just convert its connector to Jst connector since my reciever has newer version, the stock wire connector can only fit on older version reciever of k989/k969*

[@BeaversHobby]

When it works with RWD this well I'm sure it works great for AWD.

[@darkNiGHTS0]

Makes me feel reassured by my GT55 in the mail currently!

[@TheBarreraLifeStyle]

I just got mine and put it on my Kodama! Works great

[@JohnStenborg]

…i got the three DumboRC G03…the version with damping…need the damping for the bumpy concrete floor in my studio…tested different gyros in the same class and price range…but these performe the best on my bumpy floors…

[@hwelp]

Hey, what other gyros have you tested, I'm wondering if I should get the G03 or gt55 V4 or the afrc v4

[@rayikaikin]

hello i dug my old k989 out of my "to do" projects bin and have been working on it quit a bit. im curious if its worth changing the stock pinions out with the included ones to slow it down for more low end power? im not trying to race it i just want to learn to drift well. so far ive added metal diffs metal rear cups and metal body mounts. i finally have it sliding around decent! i would say the most notable improvement came from just increasing steering range by moving the link to the top hole! thanks for all the great tutorials btw

[@BeaversHobby]

If you feel like the top end is too much speed then using a smaller pinion will give you more control.

Hi i am Vince , I have the FlySky Noble NB4 but I don’t have in Setting the option “ USB function ” like you in de video t! How is it possible? I would like play some car racing game, but I can’t! 😨you do you think why ?

[@BeaversHobby]

Maybe the new firmware has the menu in another setup. Generally when you connect to a computer it will show up as a game controller as default though. I'm on firmware 2.0.99 (not the newest one, I don't want to register just to update) so I'll check again if the menu has changed.

[@vincebrizio953]

@@BeaversHobby thanks a lot for your answer! If you know more about please let me know ! 🙏

[@BeaversHobby]

@@vincebrizio953 Just checked it with my 2.0.99, there's no USB adjustment on the menu. Only a menu to activate firmware update mode. Just plug it in and it will show up in the PC as a game controller (direct input, not the Xbox mode). You'll have to do button mapping in the game yourself. On Windows you can check the "Set up USB game controllers" to see if the connection is OK. If it doesn't show up you might need to change the USB cable.

[@vincebrizio953]

@@BeaversHobby thank you very much !

[@andrecampos1790]

Do you know the HotRC F11 Gyro?? With AGS and PCA. I have one, but i dont know how to setup this features correctly. Can tell me about or maybe do a video about it?!

[@BeaversHobby]

Thanks for the suggestion. What I can gather from the manual is that the AGS is the filter for the wheel shake. So if you slide and the wheels are oscillating then you need to increase the AGS. The PCS is the ratio that the gyro taken into account when you add the steering while the gyro is doing the counter steer. So basically how much you can add to the correction that the gyro makes. Anyway, it looks really good for under 20 Euros so I'll get one and see how it actually works.

[@KuhlsResearch]

You think the direct steering from the MA could be too much feedback for the gyro?

[@BeaversHobby]

Yes, definitely. That's why some gyros with particular steering curve response work well and the others don't. I guess the direct steering produces different angle of the car than the usual servo throw.

[@Davidkoppom]

What is the plug for connecting the servo called? The white 3pin :).

[@BeaversHobby]

JST-ZH 1.5mm 3 pin

[@Isabellayout-er1wt]

Hi there, do you wanna review or test batteries?

[@BeaversHobby]

I mostly use batteries in pretty non power-demanding scenarios so I don't know how well I can do it.

[@french__239]

nice vid bro! do you have tried the G03 version?

[@BeaversHobby]

Unfortunately, no. However based on the design and spec it should react the same with better filter so the wheel will shake even less than this.

[@french__239]

@@BeaversHobby thx so much bro, I got one on the way, hopefully it will work

[@ElPunto620]

Great review. What is your personal favourite? 🤙🏻

[@BeaversHobby]

GT55 V4 feels the best and is my favourite right now. At least until I can find something better.

[@ElPunto620]

@@BeaversHobby Ok, thanks for the response 🤙🏻

[@smallmodelcollector]

Thanks for the info. You saved me money.

[@NorgeSquad]

Would you say this is good for a Traxxas slash? :)

[@wraithmedaberry5795]

I am also looking for drift gyros for my 2wd slash lol, I have mine setup pretty decent that I can slide it around without a gyro no problem but I’m very curious how it would drive with a gyro

[@BeaversHobby]

It should work. It can take up to 10V. Only one thing I'm not sure about is how it would react on a bumpy surface or when going offroad. It might shake like crazy when there's vibration.

[@NorgeSquad]

@@BeaversHobby I just ordered one and it came in yesterday :) Gonna set it up now

[@snakes301271]

wow, what makes the wee drift car your testing it on?

[@BeaversHobby]

The one with gray wheels is MA Racing 1.5. Here's the review kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWmpkpKfltaCr80 The one with green wheels is from GL Racing. The model is GLD. I also have a review for this but the info is dated because they updated the package.

[@neverdisarmed5929]

Spray your track with silicone oil. It will give your cars ability to drift slower and with a brilliant grace. It was the best thing I did with my track. :D

[@GF-mf7ml]

Or just clean the rear wheels it works for me.

[@KuhlsResearch]

Have you tried the V5 tower yet?

[@BeaversHobby]

Haven't got the V5 yet. The stand alone is still V4 on GT55. I've seen Dasmikro standalone gyro with V5 so I'll look into that. Seem a better value than this if the steering curve is based on V4.
