use the stock tires on linoleum. putting tape on your wheels will further reduce traction. hard tires will have less traction as well.

they are all related right? more volts means greater current. besides, test your Nimhs, even if they're labeled 1.2 volts they put out 1.5 - same as alkalines.

drifting in a real car is entirely different from drifting a tiny rc car. at that small size the turns happen a lot faster than in a real car. if you're using 2wd in a 1/28 scale car you don't really...

awd actually makes it more fun to drift, it's a lot easier to do consistent and controlled slides - like wrc cars - especially with "drift tape" on your wheels.

you can sort of feel the stepping of the wheel and trigger on the xmod controller as you manipulate them. like when you pull the trigger on a slot car controller.
