MST RMX 2.5 Episode 2 Upgrading Gyro / Servo / Pinion / High Motor Mount  

Hey man thanks so much for stopping by and showing that support really appreciate it Derrick! It is absolute blast, so much reward for all the hard work you put into it 🤟

Thanks brother 🤟😎

Thanks! 🤘😎

Sorry to hear about the servo. Yeah definitely better to upgrade certain parts on the MST. 8 bodies wow! 😲

@@edriftin R J Speed has some pretty cool muscle car bodies. I have their 69 Camaro body. Also, Aplastics is another site to get some different bodies. 👍

@storyracing387 thanks for the information bro 🤘😎

Gain is a little different for everyone but I like to run the Gyro on red and my gain is around 85

Yes! Worked perfectly. I ended up flipping the Servo with the horn more towards the rear when I got my turn buckle kit it came with the longer steering linkage.

No. Kept the stock spur gear.

The high cg motor position seemed to allow the car to slide a bit longer to me and maintain that angle easier.

My Servo worked perfectly no issues so far. I have not programmed either.

@@edriftinthanks brother, I ended up purchasing it but haven’t run it yet. Can’t wait.

A very thin/low outdoor carpet.

Typically they will work with alot of different bodies but you may need to adjust height for different style bodies when changing from one body to the next.

ok cool thank you @@edriftin

Yokomo parts were plug and play.

@@edriftin Did you put a 26t pinion in? Link is for 24t and description says 25t but it looked like pinion itself said 26t

No. Is that something you do typically? I believe we set the endpoints in the radio.

@@edriftin not necessarily needed. Some people fine tune the speed/power etc. of that servo. it is a great servo btw.

The program card is worth every penny between $42-$48. It’s a game changer and can help you dial your turning /hunting and transition of the car on certain turns to where your car is adjusted to your drift style and track setup but if your accustomed or contented to your set up now then don’t invest in the program card. Many comp guys use the PC, just make sure if you do use it annotate your old setting if your not happy with the 😊new settings. Sky is the limit in steering adjustments with the PC. The Japanese made a video on RU-vid with English subtitles about the use of the item. My honest opinion it’s truly night and day if you make the changes.

@johnjohncrisostomo6152 thanks for your feedback on this! That does not seem like a bad price to unlock all those different options either 🤘

Rev D tires with MST adjustable offset wheels. Usually run 7 in the front and 6 in the rear.

Gives a litte more throttle resolution and helps with acceleration in the straights.

Does the 26 pinion make the motor over heat or does it handle it well after a few laps ?

@@andrews2444 no overheating on the ptile or carpet so far for me.

I upgraded my pinion from a 22 to a 24 because I needed more power at the track and got great results. Now I will consider upgrading it to a 26 tooth pinion when i need even more power, thanks for the feedback.

Not sure about any outside tracks around me but I think you would need to change the tires to something more firm and possibly change the suspension settings to run on blacktop.

@@edriftin Thanks for the answer! Could you link a couple of different drift tires? Or a place i can read about it? Sorry if i take your time:)

Is this the RC car world track in Cinnaminson?

Rc Car World yes! Cinnaminson NJ

Looking forward to seeing it. We are going there this coming Thursday afternoon.

Fun stuff Eric! I'd like to get an RC car setup for fpv . Or maybe a crawler. ( start slow lol). I can't fly LOS, I'd imagine I couldn't drive LOS either.

@DroneBum thanks Paul! Yeah the crawlers look really fun too 🤟

26th tooth pinion is what I have.

Sorry for the mixup.

I did this upgrade and went from a 22 to a 24 and I had great results 💯🤙🏼

Absolutely!

@@edriftin cool, I was just there the other day for the first time. My friends are trying to get me into the hobby. look to pick something up soon

@@drewnglenn awesome! Hope to see you there one day. I usually am there on Thursday nights till close.

Kind of! Just different axis 😉

Yeah it is! Thanks for sharing 🤘

You got a second day!? I got 4 hours in the stock 😂
