To print those parts faster you can replace to 0.6 nozzle, it will decrease the time dramatically. Just checked in the slicer and each straight parts will take just 45 minutes

@RoadsideRC Год назад

Great point! That would make a HUGE difference.

@DriftRobotics Год назад

@@RoadsideRC Indeed. I also found out that when space is limited , adding a timing system can open a world of challenges and competitions even on a very small track (here is an example from my living room: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JVD5bsZgM2o.html )

@RoadsideRC Год назад

Thanks Mika!! Special member preview for you!

@kawaiikeyboards Год назад

thanks for providing the 3D print files! Might try and suggest some locals to use them for their tracks instead of using normal tapes. However the video seems more focused on track layout instead of surfaces though, would love to see you suggest what kind of surfaces (or p tiles) a beginner should learn to drift on to start practicing

@RoadsideRC Год назад

Thank you! Yes - not focused on the surface - I should have added that!! My suggestion is always to use the slickest surface and hardest tire possible. It is more difficult, but if you can drift on that - you can drift anywhere.

@igortodorovic6463 Год назад

I need to learn how to set up my nb4 radio and yokomo yd2 car for drift. I'm kind of new to it so it's all our of wack. Any videos on set ups when it comes to throttle steering and other things to help me get nice drifts ?

@Andy_Yates Год назад

I'm glad you made this because just a few months ago I spent a lot of time searching for basic track info. I did wind up finding the garden edging but this would have been very helpful. I'm sure this will help anyone looking to make a home track like I was. Love the idea of the 3D print tracksides and barriers. I wonder if it would be cost prohibitive to sell a set or sets on something like shapeways or similar service? I don't know if they require any upfront investment by the seller. Undoubtedly they take a commission on all sales

@RoadsideRC Год назад

Thanks Andy!! I bet you are right, someone could probably sell these and at least make a little $$. Like I mentioned in the video, the time for printing really was the big hassle here.

@roadstar499 Месяц назад

I like that landscape border you use...what brand is it...i actually want to be able to set up track for 1/16 scale...normal race car driving...thanks for sharing

@RoadsideRC Месяц назад

No specific brand. Just whatever the home improvement store carries. Like this one: amzn.to/3RaTKWx

@DipeshHinduja Год назад

Great stuff, I am thinking mini-z and other small scale racers could benefit as well.

@RoadsideRC Год назад

You are right! Thanks!

awesome work Troy, just resin printed 1 3 foot ripple strip, 1/2hr she took

@sur-ronrides Год назад

@@RoadsideRC the resin is breaking easy and the little lugs dont fit, i will use electrical tape to join them

@Tyler_French 11 месяцев назад

Also what do you use to keep them down on the floor and still lay flat ?

@RoadsideRC 11 месяцев назад

Everything for the track is just laying there. Has not been glued/taped down.

@alboneMS3 Год назад

where did you get the fake grass and what size did you get using those 3 ft sections ? im printing the track now have about 60 pieces done in 3 days with bamboo printer

@RoadsideRC 11 месяцев назад

Nice! The grass is from Home Depot. They sell it in rolls for pretty cheap.

@Lukas_64JDM 11 месяцев назад

hey there ! i have a question, how do you make the 3d printed things stay in place ? ive also seen some video of tracks with a realistic street barrier and i wonder how can it stay in place if you crash in it

@RoadsideRC 11 месяцев назад

I haven't done anything to these. I have left them free so I can move and change the layout. My plan is some simple double-sided tape to hold them in place when I want to. Movement hasn't been a problem.

@Lukas_64JDM 11 месяцев назад

@@RoadsideRCok ill rememder this for when i build my track ! :) thx once again

@fellers1983 Год назад

Boy I wish you would sell those! I could use some for my basement track I've been looking forever and the tetsugin kerbs are super expensive

@RoadsideRC Год назад

I may at some point - but taking enough time to print them is a hurdle. You have anyone in your area with a printer?

@fellers1983 Год назад

@RoadsideRC no unfortunately I don't know anybody that would do it.. bummer! But in your case ..I get it. That is a lot of time to print off these parts for sure!... Time for Troy to get an industrial printer! Lol

@Gangstatownz 10 месяцев назад

Hey, question. How do you get the PLA bits to stay down? wouldn't they move when the car hits them.

@RoadsideRC 10 месяцев назад

So far, they have not moved very much with the drift cars. My plan is just double-sided tape stick them down.

@willyjimmy8881 8 месяцев назад

It's a good thing that they move, prevents damqge to the car. I'd rather move track pieces back then replace parts or scuff up my bodies.but some 2 sided tape would probably do it.

@robinkesterlives Год назад

I don't own a 3d printer, is there a 3d print service online you recommend for printing these Troy? Or maybe someone in the community who wants to do it for me lol :D Great idea, I had a feeling when you first showed some of these on the desk. I could see the drift clips getting revisions to click to the track pieces as well. I have been makign my own clips using poly tubes, magnets and cute little bells lol :D

@RoadsideRC Год назад

Robin! Great idea on revising the drift clips to hook in there. I might just do that!!!! I think the best bet is getting someone local to print them for you. Not sure about online printing services - but maybe someone does it.

@robinkesterlives Год назад

@@RoadsideRC I was going to try a few online services to see who was the best option. Currently have a list of a few places. I figure if I can get them 3d printed affordably, it will help others too. :D

Hey man, is there anyway we could talk? Me and my buddy are wanting to get into RC drifting. We bought kyosho mini z’s but after one day of using them both cars won’t steer correctly getting stuck to one side. Thanks!

@chastinwickline2148 7 месяцев назад

We don’t mind spending the money on the nicer ones but the guy at the store told us the mini z’s would be a good starter but like I mentioned we are having issues with them

I'm sorry the hobby store directed you that way. It really is a hard place to start from.

@@RoadsideRC could you send me a link to a good car to buy? Not really looking for a 1/10 scale car yet but if you think that’s what’s best I can’t argue. Just would like something a little smaller for like my kitchen and baseman for now. But like I said I’m open to whatever your suggestions may be. Also if you have venmo or something I don’t mind sending a donation for your help. Thanks for your help!

@@chastinwickline2148 Honestly, I do not suggest any of the smaller scale vehicles. They just really are not good. The 1:10 RTRs are your best starting spot. Here is a guide: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yRmuX4-UNmE.html
