wanted to go into that hobby but quite expensive to do and I don't really get the kick the kits would cost you about 300+ min for a decent set. Used to play with my friends' from RC Drifting cca in campus. Set them up with LED at night

[jeremy_kokwk]

wow where to get the R/C motogp bikes from??? must be damn hard to master the control skills.

hi guys...im really into this for the past few years..but now take a short break hehe..

[Jie Liang]

any particular model to intro ? im quite keen to buy one play play

[vincekam]

Hi Jie Liang,

 

I used to visit the mention forum as well.

Bought a use ready kit for about SGD$800.00 and then played for 3 weeks and sold away.

 

It's a nice hobby but really need more people to play in order to have more fun.

Met up with fella forumer on that drifr forum and played at multi storey car park. They were friendly and awesome with the drifting skill.

 

Only thing I hate is the battery.. Need to charge it every 10 to 15mins drift and you need to have lots of them and the quick charge as well.

 

After the session, could not drive straight home.. Heh heh.

Have fun!

 

Cheers!

[MC28]

Just got into R/C Drifting mid last year...Kinda stopping it for now cos of other commitments.Can give u a break down of what i purchase and spend on..

 

Tamiya TA-05 IFS EBBRO 350R Kit = $224

Tamiya TZ Motor(Higher torque cos going into drifting) = $42

Sanwa MX-3 FHSS = $260(Orchard)

Futaba S3050 Digital Servo = $80(Orchard)

Futaba MC330CR ESC= $90(Orchard)

Maxamps 5000Mah Lipo(Lithium Polymer) Packs = $170

Hyperion 0606i Charger = $100(Spilt 1/2 with bro)

 

 

Abit here and there on rims,t-drift tyres,decals,spray,covers etc etc which adds up to around $150

 

Got T-Drift tires from HPI & also a 350Z cover + decals from HPI..But currently running on PVC tires + Speedmind rims..

 

IF you are ok to spend, get a lipo battery pack..My 5000Mah pack can last me around 2hrs of constant drifting(Very tiring for the hands)..

 

If you need advise and dunno how to start on, approach Winnie @ Orchard Plaza Level 2..She can tell u what you need for a basic startup kit..

 

Here's a picture of the 350z(When the cover was just done up, now whack here and there)Chrome rims is fitted with HPI T-Drift tires while Black is Speedmind with PVC..

i answer my own question - 4500mah batt from Stargek can only last less than 40mins .....

[nash823]

no bro...HPI is a brand it self like tamiya and there alot of other brands for this rc stuff hehe..and batts right..lipo n mah is very different..if u compare a 5000mah n 5000mah lipo the lipo would last much longer and got other advantages haha..my fren is the offical distributer got maxamps lipo in sg..haha if u need just pm me ill ask him..dis is a really fun hobby but not really cheap bro hehe..

[MC28]

Ya, like what nash bro mention..That's pretty much it..HPI/Hotbodies stuff are brought in by Taising while Stargek is the official Tamiya distributor..

 

Lithium Poly is the chemical in the battery pack itself..You need to take care of it...

 

Nash: Is your Maxamp friend hardrider aka Alan from r/c tech??

[jeremy_kokwk]

okie guys, i just wanna play long time with a good batt, so how do i go abt doing that? but the motor can tahan play one shot 2 hrs bo? anyway i go down Orchard Plaza now, check out anything to buy.

depends what motor bro..better dun whack until like dat ltr esc burn ..

[MC28]

Various MSCP with my colleagues...

 

But quite awhile nv play already...Occupied by work and studies..

 

jeremy_kokwk: Better do the sums before u anyhow whack..Need to check turns of motor, ur pinion gear etc etc..

 

Dont bloat the lipo..

[nash823]

oicc..same here shells all collecting dust haha..yea its good to invest on a get item rather den get a cheap one and changing it always too:D..& nice bike mc28

[jeremy_kokwk]

MC28 : dun worry pal i went down, ask ask the auntie abt the lipo batt, she say easily catch fire if banged or drop or simply dun koe how to take care hahaha i guess i just get the 4500Mah one soon. anyway i think one hr of fun is more than enuff.

 

turns of motor, ur pinion gear etc etc.. how to check la teach me leh hehehehe! eh you recommend tamiya TZ for drifting rite, i saw a few motors at Stargek, got one what gt tuned and some other fanciful names one, what are the differences?

 

nash823 : dun worry , i very careful one , anyway not enuff batt to really whack the esc till it overheats. but my stuffs 10 yrs old liaoz , like an old bike i think anytime will break down, need a overhaul.

 

Anyway both of you riding what bikes? i riding a honda wave and kawa zx12r..... one day come out la kopi la !

I'm riding a K7 750...

 

Your AMG kit should be the discountinued TB-01 Chassis..

 

TZ is a 23T motor and has high rpm output which is technically more suitable for drifting..

 

eg:

 

108 (spur gear) 32 (teeth on diff pulley)

-------------------- x --------------------------------

34 (pinion) 15 (layshaft pulley)

 

= 6.78 :1

 

Final drive for lipos should be under 7 if i nv remember wrongly..Not sure if it's applicable for NiMH packs..

wow k7 750, i love it..... but gf too short in height, k7 750 she cannot even tip toe but k7 1000 she can , can only get k7 1000 in aug then i can ride hahahhaha .

 

i think mine is TA03R chassis also discontinued of coz.

anyway the 3300mAh batt i bought from Sim Lim tower can only last me ard 25mins. i ask ard over there and they say the highest they have is 3300mAh. u think i shld go Winnie there and buy?

 

actually what is the diff betweens all the chassis?

[MC28]

Some claim certain chassis better for certain things etc etc..Nearly wanted to sell off my TA-05 and get a HPI chassis...Their's seems good also..

 

What kind of packs u enquire with Winnie??

 

btw, k7 750 nt that high mahx..Both seat height same if adjust to lowest level..

[jeremy_kokwk]

anyway i saw a Tamiya carbon fibre chassis online, wow ke chio with, with full alumimium blue parts. i guess that one must be damn ex lor.

 

750 and 1000 exactly same design meh? i tot it is like R6(super high) and R1 lower coz seat not so wide.
