This is the Yokomo YD-2S 1/10 2WD RWD Drift Car Kit with an included
YG-302 Steering Gyro. Featuring a one-piece resin chassis, superior ease
of handling, high rear traction with a high mount motor, the YD-2S is
ideal for low grip road surfaces, such as P tile and concrete! The
high-mount motor pulls effective roll especially on low grip road
surfaces, and it is possible to run with a high sense of stability even
in a slippery situations.
This kit comes including a steering gyroscope, which is important for
RWD drift, and it is also a perfect fit for those who are trying RWD
drift for the first time. The attached gyroscope is a Yokomo YG-302,
which helps prevent hunting (malfunction) due to a hypersensitive
reaction while high response, realistic drift driving is enabled.
High Motor Mount Location The highlight of YD-2S is the high mount motor layout as a results
of new gear box development. Conventional high mount motor layout on
YD-2 has been driven by third party conversions, however those are too
much height since they just re-layout the motor position by adding high
priced carbon made parts with ridiculous appearance.
Too much higher role center delivered the disadvantages on
performance as well, such as slow acceleration at the corner exit, and
it is not easy to drive at the competition track. YD-2S enable to
select 3 kind of motor positions in order to suits for the best role
center to deliver the best rear traction in several kind of slippery
environments.
Transmission
Fully updated designed 4 transmission could squeeze into
the bottom of motor, and it is the type to increase the rear traction as
rotational torque goes up, supreme for low friction surfaces. Rear
differential has 4 pinion gears. Since the motor layout can be changed
by selecting from 3 rotate positions at the motor mount plate, the
weight balance of the car will be also adjustable to find out the best
setting for keeping the supreme steering angle and speed in any kind of
slippery surface condition.
Battery
The battery is limited to Shorty LiPo battery, but the
mounting layout will have 4 different positions by selecting battery
stopper location on the chassis. The layout will be Vertical, Horizontal
Front/Mid/Rear in order to complete the fine tuning on weight balance
and forward/backward traction.
