    People might find drag boring, but back at the end of Feb or begining of March someone walked away from a no prep race in Las Vegas with $20,000 for toy car drag racing. I think they are a vehicle that would be more fun if your friends had a couple.

    At first I was sceptical about how much "fun" you would get. Now, with the SkyRc I can see quite a bit of fun trying to get your speeds/records, tinkering etc. If you don't have any tracking, just going in straight lines ain't my thing 🤣. Still, overall I'd certainly give it a thumbs up

Then ordered the recommended REEDY POWER 2S and 3S batteries and CHARGER for it and as for the 3900kv motor that can be used on 2S is no longer being made or in stock. I had just got my SKYRC GNSS SPEED METER GSM-015 and tried them out with it and got 40kmh on 2S then 60kmh on 3S. The WLTOYS A969B and the A979B are just 1kmh faster at 61kmh. I do not race and just have fun with it and as for what class it would be in it is OUTLAW ALL THE WAY. I put my GOPRO HERO 7 BLACK on the inside looking through the windscreen and it looks great but have to block out the steering next time with something like a dash board to hide it. The steering adjustments are so touchy and extremely fine to get right.

    The stickers are probably not cut because they are double filmed. Paper on the back and removable clear film on top. If you do apply them they should look good

    I know in real drag racing you can tweak your wheelie bar to help compensate for torque steer on launch as well. After all it is what steers the car when the front wheels aren't

    Trying to decide which drag car to get. Last summer it was a real big thing around here and Associated has a special for $170 for a RTR kit, which is a great deal. They have a kit for $100 and I have electronics already, but an extra set of electrics for $70 is not a bad deal.

      That's the challenge, probably lairy handling on 1S! I like scale and it would probably be a longer 132foot run and more involved drive, could start from a stock (over weight underpowered) 16seconds run and modify to try for sub10. Hard bodies, true 1:10, line lock etc. It's why the crawlers appealed and I'm back in the hobby.

    • @mikeupton5406
      @mikeupton5406 3 роки тому

      @@simontromans2748 The challenge of a scale suspension geometry and making it work is something crawlers have achieved. And I understand leafsprung truck chassis are not very popular. But its awesome these componets were created in 1/10th scale. If you look at 50s and 60s drag cars you will see alot of 6 lug rearends out of pickup trucks. And Gassers used beam front axels out of 2wd trucks and vans. All this stuff is available. Can you imagine 1960s stock cars road racing cars running leafsprung or three link coil sprung rear suspension and IFS? I have really wondered where the manufacterers have been on this. The consumer drives what products are going to be available. And its a mix of R/Cer's who know very little about the nuts and bolts of how real cars work and people who aren't into the scale aspect of the hobby as much so it doesn't bother them that the model isn't that scale. Nothing wrong with that it should be fun first. I fall somewhere in the middle of that. But I do like a challenge, and hearing that scale geometry suspension cars could never be competitive in no prep, oval or road course. Let's find out! I enjoy trying. So yeah I have a flat frame crawler chassis slowly becoming a drag car. I know other people are developing these cars but they are elusive to my internet searches
