RE-DPi-R Typhoon Spec R


The Drift Package Imadoki is very nice conversion. The narrow chassis would actually work well as a touring car chassis.
 


I finally de-anodised the remaining components to complete the  Typhoon Spec.


Thus leaving the shine on the whole chassis. Matching a new Acuvance Tachyon Airia and 21.5T motor.

The newer Sanwa receiver I installed was not compatible with the gyro I recently installed... so that means more gyroless tuning until I swap some components around.


Today I found a pretty good balance. As long as I don't push too hard. gyroless lapping on a small track is no problem.




So... I've re-started the long process of rear wheel drive setup testing mm by mm and countless configurations for balance. Narrow, full width, soft, hard who knows what I will settle on.


But the chassis looks awesome and will make a great base as tuning completes. The previous owner of these chassis plates decorated them nicely so I'll keep it that way.

Chassis Work


Chassis Image is wasted once the body goes on, But I like the mechanical image.




It won't be long before the Drift Package Imadoki Rwd is in action.


Just waiting for electrics which gives me time to de-anodise the few coloured parts. And I need to source a small mono shock for the upper arms.


DRb 5.0 has also received some bling upgrades. 


The main one being the front bumper support weight. The 5.0 needs as much grip from the minimal front rotation as possible.


I also wrapped the servo for image. But I really need to remove the two red parts on the chassis.


A few adjustments still need to be made up front to correct the upper arm.

It's just a shame all the blue parts are just the shade off each other.

Drift "Imadoki" Package (DIP?)


 I think anyone with a drift package will go nuts over this. The visual impact is awesome!


You can still use a lot of your old components. however the front C carriers are different, so you may need to repurchase.


Overall a cool looking package.
