I have always thought the cost of entry to rwd drifting was way too high, and the only cheap options were an LDRC or my D12 drift conversion (I'll make a thread if y'all wanna learn about that). But nothing was in 1/24 scale for a way to test the waters without going all in on a $300+ build so I made a way! Start with a K989/K969 and the gyro in the links below. watch this video to wire the gyro properly:
. After setting up the gyro, remove the driveshaft and use my conversion kit to achieve a high steering angle with minimal hassle. Next print a set of drift tires and let it slide!
