- Join us as we take the plunge into the old days for us and show newcomers the easiest way to take their ready to run cars and get into doors at their local track!
We spent a total of $30 of our $40 weekly budget acquiring stealth body mounts to keep this S15 looking picture perfect! That will help us start week two with $50 to spend. Drop us a comment below if you have any helpful tips you'd suggest to a newcomer!
Stay tuned for more to come from Project Get DOORS. - Розваги
Would be sick to do a super stock class with the rtr rmx.
o yeah!
Dudes glad to see this. Honestly entering the drift world was intimidating 3veryones leet and there no comprehensive guild to tuning. Tuning suspension, toe, caster and camber plus tire compound and weight distribution all have alot of little nuances that if a general starting point is established the point of entry is so much more accessible. I look forward 5o see how this progresses. Could become the one stop resource I refer everyone to
Oh man why didn’t i see this video. I never would have thought how good the car was straight out of the box. I just ordered 86 rmx 2.0 rtr from asbo rc with a couple of upgrades.
Thanks again for this series Jordan and Co.
track is looking fire!
Thanks KPoP! Hope you’re coming for slides this year
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Very good information for someone who is interested in getting involved with drifting. Will watch the series on this build. Thanks again ✌
Cheers and thanks for watching Brent!
Nice cool material🔥💯
Thats cool ,bought me the Kit a Week a go ,hope i can learn from you,changed the hole on rear Schocks!
Gonna have erryone on that MST sauce. Nice vid guys.
I bought MST RMX 2.0 kit to see how it will drift next to my Yokomo YD-2RX. I’m really liking MST but time will tell. I will be tuned in to see how your build evolves👍✌️
My first would def be turnbuckles, then servo/gyro combo. And tx/rx later on. Ive noticed the responce time was so slow i had to turn in,advance lol to get around the corner😁😉
You earned a new sub.
For some reason, my comment didn't post... Gonna be really awesome to see what you guys do with the car... I've been told that even though it's kinda pricey, this is a good car for a beginner... If I manage to get one it will be a while... But this will give me allot of info on the car and what can be done and how things can be tweaked ...
Keep’um coming im gobbling these up like Homer Simpson does too donuts 🍩 nom nom nom 😋
Cool stuff thanks yall just saved me 500 plus dollars out of pocket lol.
Don’t worry, you’ll still spend it 😂😎
cool vid
Thanks Josh!
I should have waited until the end of the video.... I'll have to come stop by
We are open tuesday(tomorrow) from 7-10pm and again Friday Saturday and Sunday
thing ripssss out of the box!
Guy's thanks for starting this build,. I own the FXX 2.0s, RMX 2.0s and RTR 2.0 my first of many questions to come during your series: Should the diff be locked or not....the RTR came locked but the FXX & RMX came with bearings, so Locked or Not Locked?
Either is acceptable and both have their reasonings. I find I prefer unlocked for slippery surfaces like we have at our track location and locked for high traction surfaces like carpet. If you’re struggling with exit speed on low grip (polished concrete) opening the dif and installing a lighter fluid will help the car stay in traction more. We will address more settings as the weeks unfold.
@@ScaleScience Thanks, that is good to know. During this work-at home past year I got into this Drift thing because of how nice the cars can look, as mentioned I have completed the FXX & RMX 2.0s but never ran them other than on the kitchen floor (polished granite floor ) and not sure has to what should be happening. I purchased the MST RTR because they said its tested at shop and should work like your showing here so I would have a reference to how they should run. But I have no track near me (Super G is 3 1/2 to 4 hrs away) and I'm definitely not putting them on the sidewalk to figure out if they drift right. ( not messin up my cars) lol.
So I'll be rebuilding mine with you folks. Should get a Great working car out of this even if I don't run them anytime soon.
Cost Saving Tip: Fly Sky FS-GT3C channel 3 works great with MST gyro. Ch 3 D/R & Trim control sensitivity. D/R sets how high you want it and trim lets you adjust setting on the fly. And yes to activate gyro is a L/R or R/L turn of the wheel but there are 3 settings on the gyro that you might want to address.
Just discovered this on the hunt for an unboxing video. Picked up my RTR last night and took it to the track straight away last night and my word I was useless 😂.
I’m used to “normal” cars that go at speed straight forwards. I felt this was really slow but I guess that’s the drift and sliding effect. Will be watching all these and following to get some improvement to my rtr.
That „really slow“ is why rc drifting is the only rc hobby that interests me.
It looks and feels soo much more scale speed and realistic than regular rc racing, simply wonderful to hit those long, slow and smooth drifts! 👍
These cars have camber pills in the front shock tower. 10 stages of camber tuning. The shims and what not are not needed. Leave the arms alone and just change the pill orientation.
I'm about to buy the 2MST 2.5 RTR and I want to know what size, brand battery you use? Great series, I'm watching them all, up to week 4 now... I can't wait to get back into drifting. I used to run old 4wd Sprint to Drift, now I want a modern 2wd, thanks for all the work!
Gens Ace 4000 mAh LCG shorty
Do you guys usually leave the gyros on or do people take them off I didn't like mine on my mst so I took it off lines are decent but not perfect should I have a gyro on it?
99.9% of rc drifting rwd will take place with a gyro. There’s a MICRO group of people sliding with no gyro, however I would say confidently you should leave it on.
Any suggestions on pinion/spur gear combos for polished concrete? I’m confused on gearing. Thanks in advance 👍🏼. Always a banger vid.
What surface are you driving on? What’s your current pinion and spur size? What motor? What batterybrand and C rating? Do you have access to an infrared thermometer?
@@ScaleScience polished concrete and also P tile. 19pinion/84 spur,HW xd10pro 10.5T,gens ace 60-100c. And no just a regular laser thermometer. Sakura d5 chassis v2.
@@swissmiss5792 I’ll try to remember to look at my d5 when I get to the track Friday to confirm but I believe I’m running the stock gearing on my d5. I’m planning an update video on my d5 soon!
@@ScaleScience sounds amazing!!! I look forward to it.!!! 👊🏼
Hey Guys, Awesome video! What battery did you put into the RMX 2.0 RTR? and what battery would you recommend for drifting the stock tires, on asphalt to start? I'm realizing that the weight of the battery may create to much oversteer as I am a beginner.
We used a 4000 mah LCG shorty pack for gens Ace!
@@ScaleScience thank you!
I actually ran a Common Sense Lectron 5200mAh “stick” style LiPo on an RTR at my local track and it worked great. No real “oversteer” from the weight of the longer battery. Interestingly, that’s the same battery said local track uses on their rental RTR. Maybe that’s experience talking. Maybe it’s that the extra weight added traction to the rear wheels. Who knows? But in truth, I doubt using a larger stick LiPo will matter much versus a “shorty” LiPo. I will say that because this chassis accepts all kinds of packs, if you run a NiMH pack, you may notice oversteer more than using “long” LiPo so keep that in mind.
Currently have one on order to build up. Really keen to get stuck into it and see how much more different it is to my TT-02 convert.
Mine came with the ugly matte black direction 5 spokes. I ended up getting the gold BBS LM wheels for it.
Which tires do you guys recommend for garage concrete? I got the Yokomo DRA tires, and feel that they grip better than the included MST tires.
We like DRC, reve D as014’s, DS LF-5T, speedline, mst even has different compounds. We prefer setups with tires having less grip, suspension with more grip. Cars handle more uniformly with that approach rather then just sticking more grippy tires on and masking poor tuning or setup.
@@ScaleScience Interesting. I went with the DRA since I read it was good for concrete as well. Originally I was looking at the DRC, but read to not use those on concrete.
I will try moving the lower rear shock point to where you guys did and see how I like it. I relocated the motor to the top mount, and found that I liked the way that handled. I may move the ESC to the rear diffuser/weight tray. Right now I'm having a harder time maintaining a longer/faster drift.
@@lazandrosapinoso3947 yes we struggled with the same but you can trust that week 3 edit is going to cover some major bases!
@@ScaleScience I look forward to watching it!
So I'm having an issue with the car plowing into the turn meaning I turn the wheels bur the car doesn't react it just continues on a straight line. I'm wondering if you have any insight as to why this is? It does this on carpet but if I take it into the street I don't have the issue.i live just up Wadsworth from you guys,maybe I should just come in there and see what it does on polished concrete and see if it's the same as carpet, and if it is at least I'll be with people who know this hobby really well and will be able to help me out
Keep watching sir we address more setup configurations to aid you in getting this setup dialed in. And yes, especially if you’re that close you should be a regular by now!
What gyro mode did you have it in if you don’t mind me asking? And gain percentage?
Mostly in red mode now and around 70% gain depending on driver
Would you get the MST RMX 2.0 for a beginner car? looking to get into drifting and don't know if this is a good choice or not
Looks like you may need to keep watching the series! But yes absolutely would recommend!
@@ScaleScience .... I've just saved the playlist so I can binge watch it here in a few minutes... Lol.
What size and brand of battery was that? I'd like to try a smaller one like that in mine.
We are using. Either a reve-d 3700mah shorty LCG or Gens Ace redline shorty LCG battery. Getting some new LCG protek batteries this weekend to test as well.
@Retard 0112 any lipo charger. Personal chargers I have a gens Ace single and a toro dual charger. Both great, gens Ace is cheaper
Yall got anymore of them magnet mounts?
I dun wan put no holes in me mustang...
We absolutely do! 29.99 plus shipping. You can send us a message on FB to lock some up!
@@ScaleScience good, goooood. I think whoever I talk to on FB is annoyed of me by now but I will see ifn I remember to do so when i get home.
Will everything y’all do to this will it work for a yokamo?
In theory yes, but not all of these upgrades would be required on all yokomos
Can you link or time stamp be with what battery you went with? I sware I seen it but I’ve re skimmed through 5 times can’t find it
You May have seen it in in the Usukani build. Either a Gens Ace redline shorty slim or reve-d shortly slim pack. 3700-4000 mah, 100-130c 2s battery. We prefer these two for size and weight.
@@ScaleScience awesome thanks ! Can’t wait for the next video
@@ajustice2010 just dropped 40 minutes ago!
@@ScaleScience hey I’m struggling to find the cable to charge the battery (4mm bullets) to a 2s charger
And what do I need to plug it into the car? Thanks in advance !!
@@ajustice2010 just look for lipo charge lead on amazon. The car comes stock with deans connection so you will need a female deans to 4mm male bullet adapter. On your charger, if your leads are already deans, you can use the same adapter to charge, otherwise you’ll need whatever plug your charger is to either deans or bullets.
I would love to have a track close to home but the closest one is like 30 mins away
Man wouldn’t that be nice. I drive 45 minutes one way when there’s no traffic and over an hour when there is 2-3 times a week. Make the trip, it’s worth it for you and for the track owners.
Hey. Is there a way to get some more setup specks from you? Please
Can you be more specific?
@@ScaleScience you did Actually very well on all your videos. It’s me that was to fast to act on video 1 🤪. My car is pretty awesome to compare before I watched your videos. However I would like to have a word for you if it’s possible 🤓.
@@integrityrc7356 .... That's awesome to have recognized where you were being hasty and not taking the time to follow along and see what was being done.... I honestly kinda felt like that a week ago when I found out more about RC Drifting... I was basically asking people what RTR I could buy to be able to be competitive.... Instead of doing some research and finding out that drifters are not really RTR at all... Because you really need to learn about your car and tune it to suit your style...
what does moving the shock to the inner hole do?
Go back to physics class and you’ll remember that by doing so, we are making the handle of the lever bigger (easier to move) which will make the suspension feel softer. That should help it grip up and transfer weight front and rear
@@ScaleScience got it, i just got an rtr, have a battery that weighs 200g and it makes the car very slightly squat when sitting still... you think i should leave rear suspension alone?
@@Crohniac I would practice more then make changes at this point! Get wheel time
@@ScaleScience yeah thank you, first drift car so it's hard to know what needs adjustment, feels good to me tho and after a day im feeling confident
Could u give ma a link on where i can buy it i cant find it online for some reason

Where can we buy these 🤔😉
These are now going to slowly be phased out. The new version 2.5 RTR is coming!
anyone here have their steering go off to the left?
You can straighten it on the radio!
I don't know how to buy on that mst website 🤧🥺
Buy what, a car? Where are you located?
@@ScaleScience im in Malaysia
