Talking DRIFTING XMOD OR Micro rs4

Im Plannig On Buying A Xmod This Upcoming Week Or A Micro Rs4. Im Only Buy One To Messing Around With Them In House Nothing Serious. I Was Wondering Which Rc Car Can Drift Better Or If They Can Drift At All? And If They Can Drift Is There Anything I Might Have To To Do Make Them Drift.

get the micro rs4, you should be ashamed to even put those cars on the same level, the xmods are horrible.

Re: DRIFTING XMOD OR Micro rs4

To make it simple, I will say this. Xmods are crap. They can spin out of control if you call that drifting.

Get the RS4 they are so much better...search the word Xmods and see how many hate posts you get.

Re: DRIFTING XMOD OR Micro rs4

ok, your question's answer is, the rs4 is great, you'll be able to rap electrikal tape around the tires and drift right away, or you can put pvc or abs pipe on the rims, you will be able to drift stock, just not as well, i tihnk you may wanna stiffen the chassis, and get a high torque motor, after that get stiffer springs, and you should be just about set

Re: DRIFTING XMOD OR Micro rs4

I have an XMOD and it may not be the best out there but it certainly is fun to mess around with in the house. To answer your question, yes you can drift the XMOD. You just need the AWD upgrade and tape up the wheels and it's very easy.

Re: DRIFTING XMOD OR Micro rs4

you can drift it, but it looks like shit, plus the micro rs4 is just a better choice, more expensive, but will last a lot longer than the shithole xmods

rs4 is $150 as kit, RTR i tihnk is 200$

Re: DRIFTING XMOD OR Micro rs4

Xmods Are Good for kids on a low Budget. If i was 3 years younger, i would probally purchase a xmod because, Too young, Not able to get a job.

Now if your a Teen, Then its good to get a REAL RC.Good experiance at a young age. Some kids just dont have the money to spend on these high dollar toys.

1. You can drift the XMOD perfectly
2. XMODS are not "shitholes" they are decent for their price

Re: DRIFTING XMOD OR Micro rs4

all i've seen xmods do is break, a friend of mine got his, and it never ran straight out of the box, so he took it back and got another, and it still didn't work, finally the third did, but it broke later on, yes i think they're shitholes
