MST MGX Gyro Installed | Tested | Reviewed
Рет қаралды 10,530
Күн бұрынThe MST RTR rc drift cars used to come with their LSDx gyro installed. That gyro was abysmal....seriously. It basically forced you to upgrade the gyro (& servo shortly after) almost immediately.
After seeing more talk online (Hi Medic Billy!) about how much better this gyro is - I had to try it.
Is it better than the old LSDx?
Is it a worthy gyro to sit next to the likes of the ReveD Revox, Futaba GYD450, and Yokomo DP-302v4???? I put it to the test to find out!

I just picked up my mst 2.5s last friday and have already used your video as a suggestion for changing the settings on the stock gyro. I like that the steering doesnt slap back to center now after changing the setting. thanks!

Really - smart money starts with the MST RTR. It does well straight out of the box...and if you don't like it, they hold their value for resale very well.

That's exactly the same Gyro in my RTR MST RMX 2.0 GT-R r35 and I run it with out changing any settings for it, had some Gyro wobbles and really sensitive as it comes from the Box, I'm going to unplug the adjust wire and do the potentiometer manuel adjustments, use chan 3 for my light control...

Yes - this is the gyro that comes in the RTR. It is MUCH better than the LSDx that used to come in the RTR, however there are still some better ones on the market. Thanks for the shoutout!

Love the videos man, learning a lot. When you adjusted you the gyro to slow down the servo, the red light on the gyro keeps blinking but the servo is working slower now, is the blinking red led normal?
@RoadsideRC 2 ай бұрын
I apologize. It has been awhile since I did this, so don't fully remember. I believe blinking = gyro sees input. After a power off/on, I believe it is solid when sitting still. But - my memory is not great anymore.

Awesome review, what do recommend a better gyro? I am wondering the same thing if my gyro is good enough (cheap AFRC-gys-2 V3) or buy a specific expensive brand.
@RoadsideRC Жыл бұрын
The Futaba GYD450 and ReveD Revox are both my current favorite gyros, and make a big difference.

I run this gyro with reved rs-st servo, and its fine no gyro wobble in any speed, and its Very smooth it likes to keep big angles, seems too easy to control. I run it on normal mode, avcs is too slow for me.

Interesting, as that is the exact same servo I used in this test!

Yeah, my MST RMX 2.0 came with the LSDx and it was pretty bad. Upgraded to the Yokomo DP-302 V4 and it was a night and day difference. Even w/o any other upgrades the car felt so much better and stable in drift.

@barrykennedy9379 Жыл бұрын
You must have upgraded the stock servo aswell, because the mst stock servo is not able to keep ip with that gyro an will just burn out
@theAessaya Жыл бұрын
@@barrykennedy9379 yes, indeed I did, I opted for the ReveD RS-ST servo that I swapped out at the same time as I changed the gyro. At this point there are no more stock MST electronics in my RMX 2.0 left, and it drives like a dream.

It should have reversed the gyro operation. Did it not?
