The Ryft is a bit overpowered on 4S. I much prefer the experience on a 3S pack. Ultimately, I found the kit to be a much better deal, as it gives you a bit more freedom for setup, especially in your diffs. Great video!

My mate told me the same! So only ran on 3s, I will try it on 4s for some fun in a future video 😅🍻

Neighbour runs his on 4s, and feeds it regularly with diffs, drive shafts, and trailing arms. He's tried every brand of drive shaft too.

I'm leaning towards the kit myself I think, a nice sensored setup as well to smooth out the low end.
@Art-zs6sl2 жыл бұрын
I bought the RTR for 70$ over the kit. Not a bad price for an esc/motor servo trans/rec.

IMO, this video is a great example of how not to drive a Ryft. There is a sweet spot on the throttle just above where it cogs that would have made a large percentage of those lines trivial with the right inputs.
@MauGino2 жыл бұрын
I love the look of the Ryft. I admit I was cringing when I was watching the video. Going full throttle at much larger rocks didn’t do the Ryft any justice. The Ryft is based on actual rock racer designs from the NRRA, National Rock Racing Association. If the rocks were “scale” to the Ryft it will do better, those rocks you were going head on into I think was a bit too much for it. Also in rock racing choosing lines like crawling makes a difference. Going full throttle straight into a much larger rock and the angle of the face of the rock will determine success scaling it. It seemed a bit overpowered but it might be my perception. Love the Ryft and I love the video content you both put out consistently.

I love the idea of just sending RCs at rocks. Leaving the link ends as the weak point seems like a good move since you can probably get them by the bag :)

Looks epic, but it should feature a Sensored Brushless System for great/ real rock bouncing- with this setup it has too much cogging 3:21

Nice review! The Ryft is definitely a different animal….I bought the kit and glad I did vs buying a rtr.. I installed a brushless sensored system and it’s much more manageable to drive! Fast enough to bash or bounce but able to crawl if need be…..it’s a pretty tough rig but really doesn’t have a purpose other than bashing. I’m working at making mine more of a crawler with maybe rear steer.
@jjshobbypower90912 жыл бұрын
Nice video buddy! Good testing on the robustness of the RYFT. Next thing is to get a sway bar to stop it from torque twisting, and you are right about a stronger servo. Keep bashing!! 😊👍🏼
@V8chump2 жыл бұрын
I’m not usually one to complain about electronics. If it gets the job done I’ll use it until it burns out… but my god the amount of cogging and the speed seem all off. You need at least SOME low end control 🤣

The ryft is in a space by itself......to a point.... Its a menace to itself as others have said on 4s.. that the terrain its meant for is not the big rocks you went on more one of the last sections you showed in the videos sequence... A steep hill , rough ground. Chucking dirt everywhere.. an axial bomber is more the big rocks vs the ryft which is more a basher..

The Axial Ryft is the most money you'll ever spend on a RTR RC truck after its principal cost. The UNsensored brushless system sucks, and you need to spend $300+ on upgraded alloy axle housings unless you like replacing the composite housings almost every battery pack. Then you need your obligatory 400+oz servo to swing those big tires and a 25tooth servo savor to protect your $75+ servo., Now find a tire/suspension set up where you needn't be 'righting' your Ryft every five seconds. Viola; You now got a $1500 Ryft that can do what it was originally 'supposed to do.
