RC Drift - Hobbywing XR10 Stock Spec & 10.5T Bandit motor, Setup | Install | Testing

We have really been enjoying RC drifting.
When comparing our car vs others we were drifting with, we noticed a lack of power.

For a ESC & motor swap, there are many brushless sensored choices out there - from drift-specific setups that cost approx $350, all the way down to cheaper stuff like what I was already running. We decided to hit that sweet spot in the middle and go with a Hobbywing XR10 Stock Spec, and the Bandito 10.5T motor.

Honestly, this ESC is smarter than I am! It has a very wide range of tuning features on it. In this video, I just start to touch on what some of them do.

If you are looking at this Hobbywing setup, or looking for more info on RC drifting, I hope this video was helpful for you. if not - I hope it was entertaining!

I've been looking to get an RMX 2.0 S, and was thinking of this very motor/esc combo! So glad I came across your video, very informative. Subscribed! Also, what pinion and spur are you using?

"Now with absolutely now real idea of what I'm doing..." 🤣🤣🤣

So modest... you make us look like club footed baboons drifting an RC car. 🤣🤣🤣

Then again, your statement is the key to all of our videos. Lol

Nice set up and car!

Hi Troy
I have xerun xr10 pro with xerun d10 motor 10.5 . Motor directions reverse/clockwise. I tried to use Bluetooth ap, and LED Program card. But some how I can’t find options to switch motor directions on both devices. Last I tried to change through my transmitter on channel 2 normal to reverse. I was able to change the motor directions but I have no power. When I full throttle seems like i was reverse. And when I press full reverse has so much power as my throttle. .
I tried to Switch 1 of 2 wire, instead AA, BB, CC I do AC, BB, CA . It’s run counter clockwise like I want but I loose all the boosts and turbo.
Could you please help me.? What I did wrong. Thank you 🙏

Would this be a good recommendation for someone with an mst rmx 2.5

[Eurospeedautomotiveofficial]

Hey brotha, I do plan on buying this set up. Please tell me I am able to have reverse and if so how do I activate reverse. Lol thanks

[basherz_den]

Can you give me a link to the wheels youre running on that and tires as well.. thank you.. love all your vids by the way.. very educational.. and have been my go to for anything drift since ive gotten into it.

[ddavidson]

Do you have a video on how to set up a futaba 4pm? Thx

[mikeinvegas]

Hi. Had a question. Im starting my mst rmx 2.0 buold today. I seen a video where a guy mounted the motor on top. Instead of low . Do you know if others are doing that? If its recommended?

[Driftboi]

If I just bought an rc and wanted only the motor. Will it be compatible with just the motor or are the connections all different

[Sonicrules]

For this ESC, do you have to have a programmer or will it run straight out of the box?

[demonslayer]

Is there a way to change "option" without a programming card? I just want to change from default to like option 3 that will allow me to go reverse. Thanks.

[ReadySetRC]

Sweet setup. Got that it dialed in right👍👍

[BV-SOL]

I ordered just about the same except I got the modified rocket 8.5T motor with a gyro would it be too much for "drifting" it or Hooning it. I am building my TT02D with a carbon chassis and still AWD to drift around like Ken block.

[PAPA-zifz]

Just a question if that’s cool I’m kind of new to the drift scene…So I have the Xerun XR10 Pro G2 with the V10 10.5T combo. So you just basically use the drift car preset and adjusted the boost and turbo timing to your liking is the correct?

[ozboy]

Thanks for sharing it doze look like a pretty fun drift car not a bad price for a rtr🙂👍👍

[jeffreyjames]

hi i am building a yokomo yd2 and am looking at the hobbywing xr10pro with the v10 g3 combo, would you recommend this set up or would you advise going for the yokomo brand i will mainly be driving asphalt.

[KurtsRCs]
