Chris' Boost Creeps hoodie got my UA-cam channels colliding lol
Lol 😂
I love my donut media hoodies
Gotta say, as a trail truck and crawler kinda person, this series has been an awesome intro into the drift side of the hobby for me. Thanks for the amazing work you people do.
Dude is helping me through my whole build 😂
Nice to see A-Main not just shilling product, but helping us after the sale!
Super fun drift night and I was glad to be a part of it!
Great Episode Brett! Looking forward to what else you’re looking to change in the future!
I watched the videos from scale science, and those guys seem very knowledgeable. However, I appreciate the amount of detail you guys spend during the build, and less attention to just the driving
I actually bought the Yokomo YD-2 AC RTR version from your website and I seriously love it when I got it in my hands. Best RTR 2WD out of the box and I didn’t have to mess with it adjusting camber, toe, electronics, etc. Thank you AmainHobbies 💕
Congrats Wolfen! The Yokomo YD-2 is an excellent drifter.

I bought the MST FXX chassis kit about a year ago and it’s still sitting unbuilt in the box. But after watching your videos you have made me have the drift bug again. Been waiting for my ABC hobby S15 body with Addiction RC Rocket Bunny kit to go with it and guess what got delivered today 😜😜.
I’ve really enjoyed the drift series you have done and cant wait for the next video.
Want to say a massive thank you for how quickly you ship things out to me here in the UK 👍🏻, you guys are awesome. 🤙🏻🤙🏻
Me in isolation watching amain hobbies the only thing that keeps me going
So much fun! Hopefully there will be more drift nights in the future!
Awesome video Brett. This series really makes me want and drift car!
Love how you guys are approaching the drift car series. Nothing but positivity.
Thank you Geoff!
-Brett
This is such a cool series you guys hace put together. I really appreciate the effort and all the filming and editing behind the drifter night footage! With all the lights and cars zooming by, it was a really amazing imagery!
That being said, not all benefits will come from constantly shifting the weight rearward. Also, a few competitive events will limit the amount of weight bias you can shift, making you work harder on your setup to work.
Maybe looking up some regs from a commonly followed RC drift competition, setting the car to fall under those regs and see where that takes you?
There's an opportunity for further episodes, which I'm sure I wouldn't be alone in being thrilled to see... 🙂🤟🏻
damn i wish i had a "drifter night" where i live. there was an rc drift place an hour or so away but they are marked as closed now. maybe i'll just start one somehow...
I love the boost creep hoodie you guys should should do a collab with donut!
Very informative, I found it very helpful, thank you for sharing 😎👌
Fantástic video, thanks for bring more drift videos, i like so much
Yep, great job brett, it does matter that you experiment and find what works best, long wheel base, and read-bias or 50/50 bias are both good options and depends on other conditions.
loved seeing under the bodies of the other cars, that was a nice treat.
Just bought rmx 2.0 kit, Cant wait till it gets here. Hoping for some more videos on drifting.
That was a great night. The next event expect us willows boys to be coming hard. We have some seriously nice builds and I've been pumping out custom prints for all of them.
That was a great video keep up the good work and keep on drifting too and I have the same chassis as you and it goes really great but I change my electronics in it that’s what I did upgrade and with the new electronics even goes more better I wish Anybody have a wonderful day and Brett you are getting good on drifting keep up the good work
That Hakosuka 😍
Cool video and information
What a dream to have a hobby shop like that near you
Can’t wait to join you guys for the next drift night. My RMX 2.0 is almost ready to go
Excellent! We'll see you out there.
-Brett
one thing i like with drift is the possibility to do the hobby in winter and it is clean compared to crawlers or bashers
very interesting tips
Love form New Mexico
Spec weight distribution for comps seems to be the optimal set up. If you have to limit rear weight, that tells you more rear weight is better. More rear weight give you the option of dialing in your grip elsewhere. Push everything to the back first and try to get to 35F/65R%.
50/50 works well for 1:1's only.
6:11 already hurting crowds in that mustang 😄
To get more tirelife i run near to 0 degrees rearcamber, combined with geometry that keeps tirecontactpatch flat to the ground even with bodyroll.
It’s worth mentioning that i mainly run on concrete and asfalt
Asowme ✨🥰✨
Going thru Chico soon, be in the store soon. I'm the kid with the purple hair and amain shirt
Nice rc car
how does part 3 or any 3 part ceres come up in my feed every time?
niceee
Another option for weight shift is you could use something like the round hudy chassis weights you guys sell (10g) and put it on the outer hole of the rear shock tower.
You're right, those little sticky chassis weights are a great way to shift weight around. We should have mentioned that as an option. Good idea.
-Brett
Reminds me i need to get my yd2 s plus back out for a slide.
With Cabels do you use for the battery
Thanks Brett and Amain for doing this series, loads of information about this car. Where can I get an Amain sticker?
Shoot me an email and we'll send you some. brettb@amain.com
-Brett
The goal of a drift chassis is to transition most of the weight to thr back while on throttle. And to have near 5050 off throttle... more weight over the back tires while they spin tends to Net you more total control and traction. This is at least the concept with most real drift cars...
I run the front end of my actual drift car significantly stiffer than the rear of my car which helps move the weight by allowing the suspension to compress
Cool lil step by step series you all got going or the RMX 2.0. Would you guys ever consider doing an AWD drift RC series?
Sure, we're open to that.
-Brett
We need to do more drift vids
Might as well look into making it rear motor like an RC buggy. Motor all the way back, battery/ESC/Reciever all stacked right in front of the wheels, servo forward. But TBH I don't get the rear weight thing. Why not just use grippier tires and more weight in general?
I was looking to find the part number for the traxxas slash and I found it .i went to hobby town and got the part with your pare # and got the wrong part
Hey Brett. What system should you recommend to me to use on a mst fmx-d?
A popular choice around here is the XD10 Pro Drift ESC with one of the XD10 Drift motor options (our guys like the 10.5T).
ESC: www.amainhobbies.com/hobbywing-xerun-xd10-pro-drift-spec-brushless-speed-controller-red-hwa30112615/p1359515
Motor: www.amainhobbies.com/hobbywing-xerun-d10-drift-brushless-motor-10.5t-red-hwa30401135/p1359518
Our guys have also been going Futaba Tx to use the Futaba gyro and Futaba servo. The smoothness and ease of adjustment from the Tx is the main drive here. I still use the RTR transmitter and Gyro on our RMX 2.0 but after driving another car with all the Futaba, the difference was very noticeable in how much easier the car was to pilot. But, it's big bucks $$$ and might not be worth it if you are only a once-in-a-while, recreational driver. Let me know any other questions you have!
-Brett
if you eat 3 burritos 🌯🌯🌯 in a day will that shift your weight balance 🤔
Big time. But it balances out at the end of the day as it redistributes.
-Brett
where is this rc shop
I am on finished smooth concrete only will this help or make it slide out more ?
slide more for sure
I imagine it would help on that surface. Try moving the motor up and give it a shot. I'd like to hear how it goes.
-Brett
If you relocate your motor will all stock bodies still fit, even with gorilla?
Most bodies should fit. Try to avoid any bodies with low rear ends, like a flat bed truck. You'll need a rear window area on the body to have motor space.
-Brett
Work the front alignment and bump steer. And that thing will be fast
Hello can u help me please I recently bought a mst rmx I have no throttle just steer blinks green and can't go into modes I hear no beeps or anything
Can you try to re-calibrate the ESC? There should have been an ESC manual included with the car on how to perform calibration, it's pretty easy.
-Brett
@@AMain_Hobbies car was purchased used on offer up had a futaba transmitter
Is there going to be more to this series? Shocks? ESC/Motor?
Yeah we do, but it's more about the body and scale details. We won't be changing the electronics or any other components.
-Brett
Loving this series!! Will you guys be stocking the reve d rs-st servos ? I love ordering from y’all the shipping is always fast!
When will the stock chassis of the rmx come back In to stock
We should have more MST parts and kits in a few weeks, assuming there are no issues with the shipping.
-Brett
They have plenty of power. You could add tungsten puddy to add weight.
Good idea!
-Brett
Why didn't you take an all-wheel drive drift car?
Only because RWD is what's popular right now.
-Brett
lol i see kevin
and criss
Hi from V&b Speed a new rc community channel stop in say hi. I just got this kit working on it now plus the new Cr18...just dropped #2022Drags
Car

Dude STOP calling them drifters that phrase is so annoying it’s not “drifter night”
waist of time.
