This drift car is discontinued. We recommend this one instead: bit.ly/2WgHN4y This is the best and cheapest RC drift car we have ever seen, and it is AWESOME! It is definitely lacking a few features, but for under $50, who can complain? It actually drifts and it does a really good job! Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

I don’t think you should be showing yourself with a knife. I know, your harmless but here in Uk we have a very Serious problem with youths carrying knives , personally for a Uk audience I don’t think it’s a cool look 😐
Yeah no that will definitely screw you over the handling gets very awkward and weird not only that but since it’s awd it will act more like a fwd car that losses grip way to easily
Abby gets 10 points for doing 360 spins and 15 points for a fantastic J-turn. Nate gets 15 points for a nice drift around the spot on the floor and another 8 points for the mostly complete drift around the garbage bin. I'll give Nate an extra 2 points for jumping it.. Pretty Even ;) .. Nice vid as always :)
I've got an HPI E-10 Drift. Fun for sure! Lots of room to grow to go from power sliding [4 wheel drive] to drifting [RDW] with a locked up rear differential. But its fun to learn the techniques. I plan to change and upgrade it as I use it more.
Dang those architects, placing walls on the drift course. They knew tile floors are made for rc car drifting. I can see it now... welcome to Nate and Abby's winter driving simulator. Snow balls and hot chocolate are optional.
It's a good toy for a kid, but it's pretty useless for drift, you really do need proportional steering and throttle to control the car other wise like in your video, you'll just be spinning all the time. People have different ideas about getting started, but if you're not up for building a kit which takes a fair bit of knowledge to set it up correctly, something I'm still learning, then you could grab something like the Kyosho Mini-Z AWD. Runs on AAA batteries, has proportional steering and throttle, it run straight out of the box so you don't have to worry about figuring out the settings. A bit expensive, but they look amazing and run really well. As for the tyres, from what I read, the common practise is to heat the tyres either through hair dryer/heat gun or in a hot water to allow the plastic to expand (drift tyres are all plastic of some kind or other).
I'm already subbed to him. For drift I have the atomic DRZ, semi drift with Mini-Z RWD and I've got wltoys k989 on the way. Also if I feel like switching wheels out, I can put the Kyosho AWD rims on the Carisma GT24B I have and drift that too. Love the micros.
Im a New Rc Drifter and i will start with Amewi 1/16 pick-up Pro (45kmh) for begining, and slowly Up Grad. Im waiting like never 😱😂😂 Thx for your Chanel and salutations From 🇨🇭
Steering and throttle input are key in drifting. Proportional is key. RWD only, all wheel is power sliding. I slide irl, drive a BRZ coming from a 240 w/skyline motor. Great Video!
@@chillpokebro ha, crash a drift car and then tell me how hard it is lol. Pic I get but there's a lot more going on irl than 2 sticks. Not to take anything away from rc. All ❣️🤙
Sgt. Kong im not saying its easy to drift a car im just saying because of the smaller wheel base and scale so awd slides are still considered drifts. No one rlly calls it a powerslide in rc.
hi, I purchased this car to modify it, I should change the receiver, servo, radio, battery and perhaps engine to make it become almost professional. do you think you can succeed? Thank you! 
@@TheRcSaylors I know you guys are in KY. I am outside of Nashville. If you want, there is a drift track North of Nashville (Vivid Aerial RC). Videos on my channel. I'm happy to meet you there someday!
Doesn't matter if it's 42 bucks, with or without proportional steering you should be able to drive it like a $420 drift car, just need practice and timing. I also started with toy grade cars. What I did is convert it to a rear wheel drive. Drift tyres on the back, and rubber on front, you will be able to control the drift.
I'm really liking the chassis coloring and the tire leds, but I wish it was made a little better! Looks fun though! I'm also surprised you weren't overrun by Mallwalkers!!! LOL
did you ever get this running with two batteries? i got one today but only turns on with the bottom battery plugged in so cant tell if the second battery is even connected.
That is one awesome car. Love the body style. Reminds me of The Fast & The Furious. I'll have to pick one up when I get paid this weekend. Excellent video Nate, Abby, & Amelia!! 😊
Hi guys yea your right about the price it's perfect cause i got a fast n furious skyline n it was under 50 dollars too. I love the cheap drift cars. Now where do get parts if they break or need replaced
Noice! For me it's a "kids toy" whenever the they have trim like that on the underside. Butt! for being able to try a different r/c vehicle for cheap like this, i'd say it's good enough to try out. then if you're not into it. I'm sure you can always find a good home for it to pass along.
PARK PILOT Winter 2019 Edition and guess who has a two page expose' ? That's Right!!! Popeye does!... Naw, just kidding. It's the entire Saylor clan. Greatly enlightening Q&A article. As you'll soon see, Abby has her very own "Mini Me" in Amelia. Buy the issue everyone. Turn to page 50. Wait til you see Amelia's copilot! 🤗... Proud subscriber here!
I was going to comment that the body by itself would cost nearly as much as the price of this car, then you said it. --- That's cool that you are able to drive an R/C in a mall. I imagine if I tried that here, even when there were no people there, I would be threatened with arrest. --- One of our local malls had problems with barn swallow building nests over the entrance, and making a mess. So they put up some plastic owls to ward the little birds away. --- If I had a place like that were I could do some drifting I would tape the tires of one of my desert buggies, like the WLToys 10248, then maybe buy some drift tires & wheels to put on it.
I was drifting my first 4wd rc buggy in the early 1990's...before it was popular in Europe or America. Great winter fun indoor's with bald off road tyre's.
Oh, just too cool! I would try soaking in warm soapy H2O to exchange the tires on those wheels. Were you at the mall before the stores opened? I didn't see anyone there & the parking lot was pretty empty. Surprised you didn't get BUSTED by the MALL COPS!🤣😂 I agree that you need a large open space to run a drift car like a basketball court or smooth cement area. Very fun & different review, again. Love the way you are mixing things up - keep up the awesomeness!😀⚓💯Take care! JP❤
The alternative is brushless. Don't really know the difference between the two but usually brushless is faster and more reliable but brushed is better for crawlers or torque (I think, I am not entirely sure so don't quote me on that)
brushed is old tech and generaly slower and wastes electricity cuz of the friction of the brushes pressing on armature transfering the electricity and the brushes wear out over time because of this
some good advice already, nothing to contradict, there's no perfect answer to your question. if your style is taking a rock crawler on a hike ignore the snobs re brushless. if you are confident your are going to take the plunge into the hobby after hanging out w your Buddies . . . brushless might be the way to go. if you are just dipping your toe and aren't sure you may or may not take to like a duck in water a good brushed that offers a path to upgrading might be the most cost effective in the long run . . . and buying a $75 brushed setup that you end up replacing nearly every damn part and ends up 2x+ might not be the way to go. Or you simply don't want Jr crashing into Grandma at 30 MPH w a 1/10 brushless, or brushed. or eye have to run this by the Mrs before getting permission. For most of us budget would some part of our goal? to that eye would say take what you think it is and divide by 150% because you will underestimate all the not so extraneous stuff = spare parts for the weak points likely to break, tools to fix, upgrading batteries, etc. The Etc, etc adds up. Know yourself, is it your style to pay the local Hobby shop to fix it or eye am going to low ball via the slow boat from China? has its own hidden costs = stockpiling parts / anticipating weak points before it happens. And there's folks who just like tinkering, build a shelf Queen if that is what you enjoy, Bling out a WLToys < that replacing nearly every part applies to if you run it. if You aren't part of the 1%, take your budget and multiply by 67% and reserve 33% for parts that are going to break, And upgrades you will likely wish upon since there are few perfect RCs, most have some weak point. weak Servos, sloppy steering, better tires incl they wear out, oil filled shocks. Etc, etc is the point we don't devote enough attention to in deciding what the best path is.
@@onyjdm ordered some taimya paint but hasn't come in yet. Got light buckets as well just have to wait for them to come in. When I'm done I can keep you updated
So you want your cake and would like to eat it too? We can't control customs for wherever you live.. just sharing our experience, which was free shipping.
Do you have an update of some good drift cars unter 100€ ? wanna get the unterbody with the electroniks and 3d print a chasis myself since i suck in electrical work so i wanna skip the part of building one myself. =) i know the video is 3 years old but maybe you could help me out
