  1. I'm running Skyrc Toro 120a Esc with Skyrc ares 10.5t motor. For gyro I'd recommend dlike, onisinki or the new boom racing. Servo go omg all the way. Think I'll be getting the mt4 tx/rx next Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  2. Yes mate lol just uses friends as drivatars. Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  3. Lower arm mounts, spur and hex's are still standard for now lol Yep, broke one of them myself then went overboard and bought loads of spare ones. Take the little grub screws out of all 4 front arms BTW, they don't do anything apart from weaken the plastic. I'm running mst frf silver dot tyres and just messed about with my setup tbh.
  4. Erm, about that lol went down yesterday, hated my chassis. Got offered a go on a overdose wrap up next frd and it was beautiful. So Yeh, if I'm using my own chassis don't learn from me ;-)
  5. Just try silver dots for a couple of minutes and keep an eye on how hot they get. I've never managed to successfully drift on anything other than carpet with the D4 lol
  6. Hi and welcome to the drift section. It's a good starting point, with them being relatively cheap. I would advise not spending too much money on it as they are a basic starter chassis. If you've bought it for car park bashing it will serve you well but if you are wanting to get into drifting properly I would expect you to upgrade in the near future. Any other questions fire away Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  7. Bloody hell dude lol that's taken too long haha I've had mine a year now. you need to get down to nrd now, come for a good old slide with me. Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk
  8. Cheers dude. Its almost there Thats not even got the geometry setup. It will have more lock on the trailing wheel once setup. and yep, free as a bird, dont even need to set end points it even drifts on that lock too, struggles to sometimes but other times will sit on that lock all day long. Ill put some better lock pictures up once ive got it setup properly.
  9. So here is that chassis update as promised. Current spec is as follows Standard front bumper with 3d printed weight tray. 3racing wheels with mst heavy wheel weights. 3racing alloy front lower arms. Usukani front hubs. 3racing front shocks with standard rear springs fitted on front. Usukani shock tower. Usukani front bulkhead. Usukani upper front arms. Mst adjuster ends. 3racing alloy steering rack. Skyrc gyro (to be replaced.) Savox 1252mg servo (to be replaced) with solid servo arm. 3racing alloy servo mounts. Usukani upper and lower chassis decks. Toro 120a Esc in champagne gold with pink usukani fan cover. 3racing alloy battery tray. Skyrc ares 10.5t motor with 3racing intercooler (fan) mount. Usukani rear shaft drive. Standard driveshafts. Usukani rear turnbuckles. 3racing alloy lower arms. 3racing alloy rear hubs. Usukani rear shock tower. 3racing rear shocks with usukani super super soft springs. Few pictures So yeh, from a plastic fantastic to this. Damn this hobby is too addictive lol That's all folks
  10. Will update on the chassis some point soon That's all folks
  11. Wow. So ive not updated since April. How things have changed. Will have to get some pictures of how the chassis is now, very near to being a full usukani build. Here's my current bodyshell. Just got the high res shots through tonight. Its a kazama S15 widebody rocking a 326 power wing, custom one off P1pes Rc exhaust and some 3d printed stuff from steve on here.
