What's Under the Hood?!?! | What's in My RC No Prep Drag Car Build

The RC No Prep Drag Racing community has really grown over the past year and it's something I'm really excited and passionate about. Although I haven't been able to actually have any events or races yet, I'm really enjoying getting my car to be as fast as possible and helping out everyone else along the way. All of these cars are different, but I'm learning some tricks on what kind of stuff works along the way so that I can share it with you in the hopes that I can help someone get their car as fast as they'd like. I know I'm not the most knowledgeable, but I'm hoping my learning experience is helping other people to learn as well to understand why some things work and why others don't.
I get many, many questions about what I have in my car. From motor and ESC, to shocks, to diff fluid, tires, wheels, wheelie bar, you name it. So in this video, I decided to cover all of that. This is a complete video on my current RC No Prep Car setup. As always, if you have any questions or want to know more about something I didn't cover, leave a comment down below!
Hope You enjoy the Video!!

Great video. I'm just getting into no prep rc ( it hasn't really taken off here in Australia yet) so this is great info. I'm looking at either the losi 22s roller or the dr10 kit, haven't decided yet

@@FullThrottleRC I went 2k diff fluid in rear 5lb spring and 40wt in the front with 7lb spring and started using beetle juice and cleaning the tires with simple green between passes and it has made a huge difference. Good luck thanks for the videos!

Good information. Diff and slipper setup and gearing is a hard thing to figure out on where to start.

@FullThrottleRC 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Yep, they are all pretty "trial and error" till you get it right. It can be frustrating sometimes cause they are all so important in making the car work too.

Thank you for the update! Nice to see you are making progress! I noticed that you have the side air wings mounted on the top side of the side mounting lugs. Can you mount them on the bottom side of the mounting lugs? I did that with my DR10 project and I was able to get them 8-10mm lower on the chassis, hopefully picking up more/cleaner air. Thanks again for the great vids! I've put my SC5M/B5M project on the back burner while I finish my DR10 pieced together build. Keep up the great work!

@FullThrottleRC 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! I'd assume I could mount them on the bottom side, never tried it. I'll have to try that out to see if I can get them lower without them rubbing the ground.

Wht is the best gearing for drag racing??

@FullThrottleRC 2 жыл бұрын

There really isn't an answer I can give you to that question. It all depends on your setup and electronics and road conditions, so many things. Get a set of different pinion gears and some spurs as well. Start off with a larger spur and experiment with the pinions. Unfortunately, that's about the best advise I could give you.

My dr10 is kicking to the left....do you have any suggestions or things I can try?

@FullThrottleRC 3 жыл бұрын

It could be a bunch of different things depending on where in the run its going left, check preload on the shocks or binding in the suspension for starters. If the suspension isn't reacting the same on both sides, that could drive the car one way or another. You can also play around with diff fluid thicknesses. If the fluid is too light, it can let one wheel spin faster than the other driving the car to the left.

Do you share any of your 3d printed designs on any of the stl sites? Thingverse or cults3d?

Sure do! I have files on both sites. You can search "FTRC" to see what I have posted so far.

Where to buy

@FullThrottleRC 2 жыл бұрын

There's really no place to buy an upgraded car like this complete. Some good starting points are the Associated DR10 and the Losi 22s drag car though. You can find them all over online, I use amainhobbies a lot.
