So what is ideal weight distribution for drifting vehicle? Is it RWD with front-heavy car? -

What is locking mechanism you speak of?Fuel cell location is very ingenious. What is locking mechanism you speak of?Fuel cell location is very ingenious. What is locking mechanism you speak of?Fuel cell location is very ingenious. -

I see promise. You seem to have made an actual roll cage sort of design, if you can line up the supports with the actual racing roll cage it would be a very impressive feature! Battery box placement is very smart, you will have maximum drift this way because the weight is on the rear wheels. This will also increase acceleration since the car is RWD. I am very interested in learning more about the air suspension mechanism, I don't think I've seen such a compact solution before, and with small pneumatic cylinders, you could get even smaller (not that you need to at this scale). I am not very knowledgeable about steering, but if you can increase the steering lock, you can increase drifting ability. You may already know this as well, but make sure your gear ratios / motor selection allows you to make the rear wheels slip. In real life cars which have very high horsepower, sometimes torque is limited in the first few gears to prevent so-called "torque slip". For drifting, however, torque slip is useful, because it allows you to drift at lower speeds, which is paramount to winning a real-life drifting tournament. Also, get as much negative camber as you can (up to 5 degrees) in both front and rear, if you are intending this for short autocrossing-style races with friends, and if you are going for larger tracks, use a little bit less negative camber. -
Agreed, that was a little scary lol, it's his money but still, this would be like someone destroying a famous painting. Yes, taking the set into pieces is acceptable imo, but why would someone destroy the individual pieces

I am not an expert on motorcycles, and I usually do not even care about motorcycle builds, but this actually impressed me

It was a modern-style building, I believe, which was in ruins: it looked like there was an explosion right down the middle which destroyed the middle part of the floor.Each floor of the building had a different era of weapons: one floor had WW2 weapons, 1 floor had modern-style weapons, and I think the third floor had explosive weapons (RPGs, grenades, mortars, etc.).

Ah thanks, I have never seen an explanation of how to connect servo.
