RC Drifting 101 - Part 1

Posted Thu, 12/31/2009 - 1:28am by Peter

Welcome to the first part of my RC Drifting Tutorials where I talk about technical aspects of RC drifting. These tutorials are designed for everyone to get a better understanding on how RC Drifting works. In the first part I will talk about chassis selection.

2WD vs AWD

When it comes to RC drifting AWD is the way to go, due to the weight transfer and setup, 2WD RC’s are too difficult to drift.  2WD has a tail whip effect and will not give you that smooth sliding action that you see real drift cars doing. So if you plan on purchasing a chassis to drift make sure you choose an AWD car.
