Model-Matt Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 Hi All, I’m getting back into RC Cars and recently bought the car I wanted as a kid, a Tamiya Grasshopper. The build didn’t even take a day, so I’m already thinking of the next kit. I quite fancy a drift RC so if you have any recommendations or dos and donts, they’ll be gratefully received. My Current line up is: Tamiya Grasshopper (current model) Tamiya Firedragon (original) Tamiya Monster Beetle (original) Traxxas Jato 3.3 Kyosho Pureten Spider GP mk4 Thunder Tiger (something or other, looks like the pureten) FTX Vantage Brushless If anyone is on insta I’ve just started a new account and wouldn’t mind a follow or two - @model_matt_ers Cheers, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitroholic Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Welcome aboard 🙂 The Grasshopper is a fairly simple build, and a pretty old design, but I totally get the nostalgia. I keep getting the urge to build a Lunchbox, which is similarly dated, only I would have to try and rectify it's worst design flaws. can't help with a drift car, as the only Rc I have done any 'drifting' with was a Baja 5B, which on loose dirt was quite capable going sideways!
