RC Drift Car Builds - Redcat Racing's RDS Builder's Kit

In this episode, we build the Redcat Racing RDS Competition Drift RC kit car. So far, it looks to be an awesome chassis, and we cannot wait to install some electronics and slide this thing down the track! Stay tuned for part 2, which will encompass the install of the remaining electronics, some drift footage, our opinion on the chassis, and some fun footage!

Best video

[@justinmurphy2227]

Brother your videos are the best RC vids I've seen!
This up close visuals along with the 80's synth music is just perfect!
Most of the time I pass up "build" videos because they go to the fast forward speed technique and it simply doesn't work or sell the car to me.
You are hitting the highlights of the kits. Therefore it's now intriguing to me and I want the damn car! LOL!
I would love for you to more mini build.....1/24 or 1/28. Budget and or high-end. I'm disabled after back surgery and want to build a mini course inside! I think these pocket rocket would even more popular if TH-camr's starter building mini tracks inside.
Thanks again so much.
I did send you an email through websites contact us page.

Hey Justin! Thank you so much for the feedback! This is what motivates me to keep up the TH-cam channel. I haven't posted much lately, but hope to get started up again soon. I also have some 1/24 1/28, and 1/32 scale rigs that I can make videos on, too!! I didn't see an email come through. Shoot me another! [e-mail]

PT 2??

[@turtlelaboratories]

I hope to release a part 2 soon! Thank you for watching!!

[@sammygonzalez7627]

Fantastic build, the dimensions on the camber, was it from redcat instructions, or by previous cars ?

[@turtlelaboratories]

I built it, initially, according to the manual, and then adjusted it to Shane Mikula's recommendation after that. Shane's specs made it perform much better!

[@Im_Bloody_Close_to_Being_a_God]

Something that knowone talks about, in terms of maximizing performance, is build quality. It seems you've got that in the bag though!

[@turtlelaboratories]

Thank you!
