Garage RC presents ....HPI .MICRO RS4 DRIFT SPEC Fail Crew Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R UNBOXING REVIEW 

Got my first one in 2005 I think bmw m3

@@GarageMiniRCUK We had a group of buddies that got them when they first came out. Don't recall the year. Just dug it out to revive it. I'm on channel 73 lol.

U can convert It to rwd u just need to remove the front drive shafts I did it to mine when I first got into the hobby they rip pretty good

Thanks I will check it out

I've just done this. Doing a video soon. Need metal pinion that won't fly off.

I’ll have to watch the video again 😂 I’ve a few cars .

It was one off bangood . It’s in the next video with the Ken block fiesta

This car doesn’t have the steering angle to make it Rwd drift . The front end would need to be resigned I think

@@GarageMiniRCUK yah that’s what I figured I’m trying to find other parts I can mod the steering with.

@@GarageMiniRCUK I’ve watched your videos mine just spins out how do you keep control of yours maybe I need to balance the weight better. I most the electronics mounted to the rear

Gyro ?

@@GarageMiniRCUK I actually do not have the gyro on mine I’m trying to find one I can buy

I've got an update soon of brushless conversion. 😉

@@GarageMiniRCUK my exact same thought lol cnt wait to see it

Should be clips to take battery off , you might need an additional part as the mount glues to the battery . Unless you move position and use Velcro .

Is there a demonstration video ?

I’ll do one soon

I agree they should change design

Hi there looking to find out if this battery will fit fine? Gecoty Ni-MH Battery Pack, Upgrade 6V 2400mAh Rechargeable AA Battery Pack with SM 2P Plug and Charge Cable for RC Truck Cars

Yeah very poor design obviously I’m going to try a smaller servo with a 3D printed mount or something.

@@nikdeo6410 did you try that battery out?

Check out the brushless version of of I used a lipo with that

I got them from my usual hobby shop. Hpi still stock parts. And they do soft and hard drift tyres. The hard ones last ages. I've got another video coming on this ken block brushless conversion

Yes you can get a one way diff off ebay. Not easy to find

I'll put it on the next hpi video. I know there are upgrades available on ebay. I haven't given it enough runtime between the other 2 I have but will mention it.

You have to slide off outer rim to show inner hub. Then that has a screw

Depends on tyres . You make it faster with rubbers . The brushless version I made is insane

I'll pick one up to test. I have nostalgic attachment to this particular car. Its not value for money although compared to a miniz its cheap 😂

Which WL toys 1/24 is it?

Thanks mate. 😁The pack I used in the video is included in the kit with charger.

@@GarageMiniRCUK is the pack of batteries that are included with the skyline rechargeable ones mate and come with a charger?

Servo needs glueing down. Other wise good ready to run. You can get better parts if you want.

Thanks

Depends on some of the wheels are tight. I've done the Ken block brushless conversion for next video...

@@GarageMiniRCUK thanks do I need a special tool to get the wheels off the skyline mate

Just be gentle they slide off

More hop ups and tunable parts for wl toys k989 /69(some options to make into Rwd drifter but not easy.) . It's easy to tune and make into a very good drifter. Some nice 98mm mini z bodies you can use too. This hpi has limited choices but is good fun as a rtr drifter. Easy to drive. some hop ups on ebay. Dpends on space and where you running.

@@GarageMiniRCUK thank you for the swift and comprehensive reply. . My wl toys 284131 truck came today having a nightmare getting it to run smooth haha

It's not as good as some newer stuff. It's better than toy grade. I love it as I have one that's 17 years old.

Depends on the surface. There are cheaper and better drift cars out there.

These cars are meant for carpet or mats I had rubber tires on mine for sliding around on hardwood and cement and it worked amazing

Hip racing have dealer lists for each country

About 30mins depends on style of driving and surface

No idea yet

i think the only car that has a chance is the hbx 2188

About 1-2hours with standard charger. With my adjustable charger I can do it in 20 mins.

@@GarageMiniRCUK thanks for your reply. I think I have an adjustable charger somewhere. What should I set it to to charge in 20 mins?

I'll do it tomorrow and post on here.

@@GarageMiniRCUK amazing 👍🏻

Got distracted yesterday ill try and do this week

Probably mini z. Depends on space you have to race and how good you are at tuning rc cars.

@@GarageMiniRCUK new to rc cars but I've been building electric airsoft guns for 10+ years so pretty sure I'll pick it up quick

The hpi is gonna need more space to run. Mini z you can run in smaller space and has more options. Check out my latest video on gla rally spec. Best of both. Also mini z lots more body options literally 1000s
