Roadside RC heads to Cookville Hobbies for a test drive of the Kyosho Phaser D2, a stock RC car with minor gyro adjustments. The team faces a challenging drive on factory tires and polished concrete, struggling with over-rotation and direction changes. Upgrading to RevD AS01 tires improves control but reveals issues with the gyro and throttle response, hindering smooth transitions. Despite maintaining drifts well, the car's difficulty in changing directions points to electronic limitations.
The team plans to swap out the controller and gyro to enhance throttle modulation and improve connectivity with the car. Stay tuned for updates on the Kyosho Phaser D2 playlist as they work to address these issues. Viewers are invited to share their thoughts and questions in the comments section for further discussion. Roadside RC at Cookville Hobbies showcases the challenges and potential of the Kyosho Phaser D2, highlighting the importance of fine-tuning electronics for optimal performance on the track.
