The Biggest RC Drift Truck in the World! 1/5 Scale 8s Brushless Conversion. Part 1
Рет қаралды 87,252
Күн бұрынThe Biggest Brushless 8s RC Truck you'll see today! (Probably!)
This FG Modellsport 'Sportsline' Street Truck is a 1/5 Scale Chassis. However, being that this is a Lorry, I'd guess it's more like a 1/7 or even 1/8 Scale. It comes with a 26cc 2 Stroke Petrol (Gas) engine. I'm not into Petrol, so I've got a Brushless conversion kit, a 900kv Rocket motor, paired up to a Hobbywing Max5 ESC. (Links Below). 6s Test in this Video, 8s Run coming soon!
**If you enjoy my content, feel free to show your support by buying me a Coffee (I drink a lot while making these videos!): www.buymeacoffee.com/TomleyRC
The Conversion Kit I used:

This may have been better for my truck as it has slightly different brackets:

I like how we have brushless motors now. They go as fast as some the petroleum. But its alot safer having it brushless motor. Specially like I used to live at low income apartments in winterport Maine and I couldn't have anything with gas inside the apartments.. . Like your truck...

@@TomleyRC On my FG I had a killerbee killswitch on, put it on the third channel which got engaged when the battery gets low, I pushed the button or when the signal got low so I could kill the engine from a distance. It was needed since I alloyed the car out and it weighed over 15kilograms and hit speeds over 70km/h, it could break legs with ease.

@@TomleyRC Truck looks great btw, always wanted a FG truck or a FG E30 M3, only had FG Monster Trucks and Marders. When I had them the brushless conversions prices were crazy, so I never even thought about it. Back then the owner of FG was in a divorce so it was unkown if the business was getting a new start, so parts supply was unkown.

maybe some more steering angle and/or toe out to help it not spin out so easy. RWD drift setup is kinda finicky, one tooth smaller pinion for sure and 4S might be enough power + wheel speed for good drifting, its geared kinda tall.

Hi, I think some of the grip problem is down to a lack of weight? Along with the cold and wet tarmac, I think the best tyre would be "wets" I.E. treaded you'd get more control and when it's warmer they'd overheat and then you could slide them easier. Also have thought about asking Claire's RC'S if Ian would be interested in the engine?. Love this project!! I did think it was a "banggood" special until I spotted the FG logo. Steve. UK.
