i cant see how a bit can drift since it doesnt have proportional steering. put the vid up lets see this.

I'm not much of a stickler over definitions of things like "drifting". I'd say it's drifting, but I think true drifting is keeping on the accelerator through the whole track while going sideways.

I managed to make a drift setup on one of my ZZs. It has a 3.4, 7:9:... gearing,Bit wheels (front +and back witht the respective wheels). It drifts moderatley well. Not as good as that thar drifting u got yourself.

I agree with hog, but i think its a good drift for a bit. And i did keep on the accelerator, but a bit does not have 1.enough weight or 2.enough torque to maintain a drift on all surfaces like a 1:10 RC.

Can anyone else post a vid of a bit drift so there can be a comparison.

Post drift vids here :grin:
