I love the turbo racing controllers like the P52 you mentioned in this video and I was thinking of getting one for my C75 but the reason I’m not getting it is because it doesn’t have the type c charger built into the controller which is something I love on the original controller because it makes it easier to take with you

Imo the “drift” versions are actually best for racing, because of the lower grip tires making it more realistic. It’s not good for real drifting of course, but perfect for simulated high powered rwd racing with street tires (slight oversteering).

Just commenting on your newest video in hopes itll reach you the best. I seen one of your videos regarding the wltoys 1/24 scale compared to the 1/28. You mentioned where the 1/24 lacks is the huge lack of upgradable parts. Now my question is regarding one that ive not seen you mention, the a949. Its the 1/18 scale rally, similar to the k989. Does the a949 suffer the same downside at its scale as the 1/24 scale, or is it more like the k989 and have lots of parts to experiment with. I want something that i can try alot of what your doing with the k989 but at a bit larger scale. 1/18 even up to 1/24 but you dont recommend the a242. Ill probably end up going with the k989 in the end though, just curious on your opinion of the 1/18 scale a949 as i knows its designed more like the k989, as opposed to the 959/979
