"I hope you like this hobby grade conversion" - yes, I do! I think you did it very well, responding effortlessly to this unfamiliar and slightly quirky design - and the finished result drifts like a seasoned champ! I´m surprised that the LEDs use so much juice, but a second power source should be straightforward to arrange.
Grayson is looking forward to warmer better weather so he can drift this thing. Thanks again for giving it to him, he is pretty proud of it. Every one of his friends that come over, he shows them his “10 second car” 😁
Do you need a speed controller in the car? I thought it had one already built in. I did have a friend tell me I didn’t need one but I wanted to ask around before I did anything.
is there any battery i can install to this to make it last longer and go faster? im kinda new I don't know which ones are compatible and which ones are not
With all the things you did to this and added how did it add up to I want to start getting into rc drift cars and want something cheap to start out with
How i can send you a massage? I have radio,esc20A,battery 1000mAh,380 motor 3-6v,servo everything is combined but my esc is heat and fire burns😰 how i can fit it?🙏🏼
you have inspired me to make a bad rc car good so I got a cool cheap rc car and a traxxas slash moter and a radio and controller and some addons like underglow and a dope small winch off amazon
Awesome job!!! I just bought a Supra and looking to see where I can improve. So this vid was a great eye opener for someone wanting to start a drift hobby. Later down the road what chassis and setup would you put under the Supra body for a decent not pocket gouging expense? Lol again great vid
I been in the hobby since 1988 when I bought my clod buster I have spektrum DX6R and two 3d printer but I thought is was the 1/16 model that Jada sell I think if you had a 3d printer you could design the front steering better So design the Middle Chassis with a 3d printer but myself I buy it for the body and put it on my hpi sprint
Thank you very much this was just a fun goof around project when I drive on road cars the are normally Tamiya or arrma but was fun for cheap I do have a printer but do not know cad need to learn some day
Cool brent i like i wanna try get fast furious decals for skyline and supra in 124 um goin to do fand f car meet diarama in future when i get few more the cars i wanna do eather that orange black veilside fd or the red one in first movie with the orange supra yellow skyline or decal set for the blue silver r34 skyline too
have you seen how to transfer something printed on a color printer? there's videos how to, the ink transfers like a decal, then clear coat it. if you got handy with it the sky's the limit.
@@modelnutty6503 no ill look into in iv a inkjet pinter but if that works ill be laughing i could create my owm decals all time then but first i need to get ink cartridges for the printer coloured ink anyway cause ive black takes 2 color and black ink
cool Brent, I did mine with WLtoys A979 receiver+ESC+servo, and 380mah 3S. knew the WLtoys electrics can do 3S, cut a hole (rectangle sideways) next to the front joint for the steering servo to pin itself inside and upside down (no screws!). it runs great! edit: was it your servo beyond limit (physical end point)? seemed lights dimmed with wheels at full lock, try dialing R+L end points down some. mine was "dumb luck" that it throws to about 90% of its full mechanical lock, and the 3S spins them really nice.
@@AdventureTimeRC true, each LED pulls 15-20 ma so 20 of them will drain 400mah away in an hour or less. if they're on a JST into the receiver, pretty sure the BEC can only push about 3/4 to 1 amp.. is why I was wondering if the servo is trying to push too far, dimming at full throw. I'm thinking about throwing in 4 colored LED for under lights.. masking off the headlights and tail lights in case I want to make use of them later.. then paint the inside black to stop light bleeding.. then paint it chrome silver or white to bounce the light around more inside, center chassis too. only thinking it so far, because the body is slammed so low how much light is going to show up anyway? WLtoys receiver+ESC+servo was about 14 bucks isn't bad considering it'll do 3S, might go about 7-800mah so it runs longer.
DANG man! Nice job, looks great! Did you wire up the leds to the receiver or direct to the lipo? BTW always impressed with the amount of R/C's in your kitchen lol.
@@AdventureTimeRC I was just wondering if you wired the led's in line with the battery, it would be a little over the voltage rating of 6 volts but could still work. I have ran leds off of receivers before and it seems like its too much for the receiver to handle lights and a steering servo at the same time. Just a thought.
Lol Thad it's pretty fun send me a message on Facebook or email me brentcover7762@gmail.com I'll give you this one you and Grayson can have fun with it I need to make some room anyway and haven't used it in a while will just need a reciver
@@AdventureTimeRC absolutely anyone can buy a RTR and put money into it . But not everyone will actually see a cheap RC as a good project and enjoy doing it . That's the difference 🙂
Me to lol i grew up in the garage with my dad he had 18 Camaro s from the time i was born till the time i graduated 73 years old and he is driving a Mazda miata thats been dropped with a body kit lol my last fast car was a 88 porch 944 loved that car
It was terrible i really enjoyed his acting and the ff series was his best work i can watch the ines he is in but the newest ones after his accident i just can't get into i tryed without Brian its just not right

Thank you Del it came out so good really fun ro drive 💯

Always wanted to see inside one of these.! Very cool. Love the green LEDS.! Both cars are great, love the RX7.!!
Thank you very much my friend I appreciate it 💯
Great job.... Yeah the lights kills play time. But great job got the sky line going to upgrade that one and the mustang gt
Thank you very much
Very cool upgrades and I love the green lights!
Thank you Shawn it drives so good now lots of fun
Awesome conversion,great stuff brother
Thank you Duke appreciate it brother 👍
I see a drifting course coming in the near future! excellent video!
Thank you very much my friend 👍
@@AdventureTimeRC how do you connect servo?
Is therer othet shells that fit on this car. Like a van or reagal coop
Hey I’ve been looking for the upgrades video for the RX7. Have you not posted it yet?
I gave my rx7 to my dad but the supra is the same
Do you need a speed controller in the car? I thought it had one already built in. I did have a friend tell me I didn’t need one but I wanted to ask around before I did anything.
If you want to upgrade to better electronics yes you will need one
Good👍like👍Friend 🤗🤗
Nice upgrade, good job friend.
Awesome.
Thank you very much my friend I appreciate it hope you have a great day 👍
do you know the values used to send to the esc? Trying to do similar project but with arduinio.
would it ruin the car if i put a 1300 amh battery in there it can connect to the sm connector directly but is it too powerful
As long as it is a 2s you should be fine
is there any battery i can install to this to make it last longer and go faster? im kinda new I don't know which ones are compatible and which ones are not
Any 2s lipo battery will work you will have to change the connector to match and get a charger
@@AdventureTimeRC i have one of those traxxas chargers, can you send a link to a battery?
How would I connect the Led lights without making any upgrades?
Just add another battery to run the lights
Whats the best led strips for the rc cars for these?
I just go to Amazon and put in rc led so many to choose from
Would I be able to paint the shell or would it not work?
What did the front axle area look like before the mod
If I were to replace my current cars board with an ESC, would that mean that I have to get a new controller?
Yes you would have to but if you search Amazon you can find some affordable ones
That runs remarkably well for what was a toy grade car originally.
Thank you very much its allot of fun to drive now 💯
With all the things you did to this and added how did it add up to I want to start getting into rc drift cars and want something cheap to start out with
Did you use an ESC for a brushless motor or a brush motor?
That turned out really nice!!!! 👍👍👍
Thank you very much i really appreciate it 👍
Nice upgrades.. funny I can't believe it had a 4wd with drive shaft!
I thought it was a 2 motor design at first not bad fo 40$ now it runs like a champ👍
Amazing like 👍 excellent friend
Thank you very much my friend 👍
Will this work on the other various cars like jakobs mustang?
Can you please do a video on painting one of theses.Was looking on how to paint mine.
just spray paint the outside or get a different clear body and spray paint the inside
Is it possible to replace the engine in this model with a better one?
Yeah I don't see why you couldn't make sure rhe can size is the same
slightly unrelated but do you think the rxy rc drift car as stock is good and does it break fast?
Was wondering about being able to upgrade those 🏁🏁 Nicely Done
yes! gave a little rundown on what I did to same unit.
Thank you very much my friend 👍
Do you know the name of the stock battery connector?
No i do not i don't care for that style of connector and always replace it with one i use
@@AdventureTimeRC oh ok thanks
Excellent, very good upgrade for this rc, the drift test is really great, awesome job !!
Great update awesome job.runs great Thank you for sharing. Have a great one buddy
Thank you very much my friend have a great day 👍
“You still owe me a 10 second car” 😁
can you give me links for the lipo and servos?
Could you do a drag build with jada cars
Very cool done my friend i like it much 👊😉👏👏👍
Thank you very much my friend 💯
How i can send you a massage? I have radio,esc20A,battery 1000mAh,380 motor 3-6v,servo everything is combined but my esc is heat and fire burns😰 how i can fit it?🙏🏼
That was a cool build nice job
Thank you very much my 💯💯
So is Lipo the same as lithium ion?
Good👍Like👍Friend 🤗🤗
great video 🔥
Thank you very much my friend 👍
Does anyone know if the shell fits other hobby grade chassis’s?
Yes they fit most 1/10 scale cars
Awesome job looks cool great upgrades
Thank you very much my friend 💯
I been thinking about buying one but I would be Converting it as will to hobby grade because most of my rc are hobby grade
you have inspired me to make a bad rc car good so I got a cool cheap rc car and a traxxas slash moter and a radio and controller and some addons like underglow and a dope small winch off amazon
Thats awesome I love custom build s with cheap rc stuff
Those 12 turn brushed slash motors have quite a bit of torque. I bet your car will fly!
Great work brother 👍🏻
Thank you very much my friend 👍
About how much did this cost
Probably around a hundred more than it would cost to buy a better on but was a fun project
Cap it costs 39.99$ in Walmart online or in store :)
This is tutorial for me great video
Thank you very much
Awesome job!!! I just bought a Supra and looking to see where I can improve. So this vid was a great eye opener for someone wanting to start a drift hobby. Later down the road what chassis and setup would you put under the Supra body for a decent not pocket gouging expense? Lol again great vid
Thank you very much I really appreciate it my friend
I just bougth The supra, im so hyped
whats the max voltage for this?
7.4👍
@@AdventureTimeRC but the default battery is a 9.6v
And what kind of "smoke" was that ?
Lol itbwas my vapor great for smoke effects 💯
Can u tell me the link to the battery
Could u do a video on how to fix The turbo button?
I will try to get to that soon thank you for watching
What’s the scale of this car? 1/16?
It's 1/10 scale
Can you make a video of how to take off the top part of the car?
I gave this car to a friend so unfortunately I no longer have it
Learning something new everyday!
Thank you very much my friend 💯
for your next video you should make a cool rc truck and get a small winch
That's pretty cool video I have the blue supra.i had a question does this charge with car switch on or off?
I believe off but I have modified mine to remove the battery for charging
Well call me Impressed. lol Definitely a nice looking car. Seems to run great bud. Thanks for sharing
Thank you Nick its a blast to drive perfect for the kitchen lol👍

Cool conversion. Been kinda tied up lately. You always give me stuff to watch. =)
Thank you very much Gary glad i can keep you amused its my pleasure 💯
Wish it was more detailed on how to do all this. I have zero knowledge on how it all works lol
Lol sorry it wasn't more detailed I have since given this car to a friend

this is so cool
Thank you very much bro I appreciate it 👍
Darn cool!
Thank you very much brother I appreciate it 👍
But the engine Power and torque looks as stock to me, the only improvement I've noticed is in the proportional steering and speed
Maybe a glitch buster would fox that low voltage warning
Cool project bro great job kinda similar to what I did with my £5 RC car .
Can't beat a cheap project 👊
The cheep projects are the most fun custom work is challenging and rewarding
@@AdventureTimeRC absolutely anyone can buy a RTR and put money into it .
But not everyone will actually see a cheap RC as a good project and enjoy doing it .

Can you make a video of cambering the supra
I need to do this to the Skyline
Boaah, geil, sabber. No I don't translate this. Take it as a mighty compliment
Thank you very much my friend I really appreciate it 👍💯
First Finally
Haha yes sir
Tire mod please
very cool brother im FF fan ive had some real fast cars till i had a family 😂😊🤟🇬🇧👍👊

Is that a Supra?
Yes sir 💯
Shame its got no suspension.
I agree
Really cool tribute to Paul walker.
I’m still messed up over him leaving us so soon and I can’t watch any of the fast n furious movies.

My rx7 isn’t a rx7 anymore it’s a dodge charger now lol (I have a video of it now)
Completely fri the motor
Nope all good still driving it added a motor sounds to been pretty fun
I’d fucking 3S battery in it
