Dave's RWD VDF Ver1

This is my first successful attempt at a RWD rc-drift chassis. Was insprired by the Japanese vids I've seen. Have been a long time 50/50 and CS rc drifter and always wanted to drift in RWD. Once I find a setup that works on asphalt/concrete, I'm never going back to 4WD rc drift! :P

Nice man, Havent seen you in ages but its looking good, I must admit I tried a TA02 with some slightly softer tires and in RWD on wood it drifted but this looks way better!

@Swiftsuper1600 Thanks man, actually I'm using a Ofna/Hong Nor "JL10e" now, sounds wierd but it's actually an OK mid engine chassis. I increased the steering lock, and it's a RWD champ, much easier to drive than the VDF :)

@ps13boy gyro is something like this steering assist like if u are sliding towards the left,ur wheels in front will counter steer it.it actually happens in the real life drifting cars

[ps13boy]

@Theboysays Yeah thanks, I did a bit of research, have a heli gyro now, and yes it does help a lot. But...I feel like it is still kind of cheating...

I am tuning another mid ship chassis now which seems much better, can drift it with no gyro as good as the VDF with gyro, so I'm pretty happy :) ...will do another vid soon...

@ps13boy err it's a type of tire which is made of plastic material.can almost last u forever.it's actually a very hard material(of course) and it is actually kinda so called drifty LOL

hey, ps if u make a exhaust pipe like the other one you made ill buy it from you for $20. so how bout it:????????????

[ps13boy]

@Sabreon91 Yup, never had any problems except one time courier post lost a parcel at the depot for a day. The only thing with those yeah racing dots is that they have a little knob thing around where the hole is that my chassis used to get stuck on a lot, so I grinded those off with a dremel.

@ps13boy Thanks Dave, Might get a few packs in.

What is RC Mart like for shipping to NZ, hassle free easy to deal with.

@Sabreon91 Sorry, late reply! I got those on rcmart.com They come with those peg things which I changed to look like road work markers.
