The MST RTR rc drift cars used to come with their LSDx gyro installed. That gyro was abysmal....seriously. It basically forced you to upgrade the gyro (& servo shortly after) almost immediately.

After seeing more talk online (Hi Medic Billy!) about how much better this gyro is - I had to try it.

Is it better than the old LSDx?
Is it a worthy gyro to sit next to the likes of the ReveD Revox, Futaba GYD450, and Yokomo DP-302v4???? I put it to the test to find out!

    Thank you so much for this! I was going nuts thinking I was missing something. But your video was straight forward and gave me a ton of information.
  • @ryguyfergie
    I just picked up my mst 2.5s last friday and have already used your video as a suggestion for changing the settings on the stock gyro. I like that the steering doesnt slap back to center now after changing the setting. thanks!
  • I'm really glad you're doing these tests because I want to get into drifting but don't want to spend big incase I don't like it
  • @billyb5057
    interesting gyro upgrade mate A big like👍Au👀full view every time
  • @LRCR
    That's exactly the same Gyro in my RTR MST RMX 2.0 GT-R r35 and I run it with out changing any settings for it, had some Gyro wobbles and really sensitive as it comes from the Box, I'm going to unplug the adjust wire and do the potentiometer manuel adjustments, use chan 3 for my light control... Gave you and my localish Drift community a Shout in the last Video Thank's for the help ✌🤠👍 HFLPRCing =Having Fun Laughing Playing and RCing 👍😎👍 AOAH =Association of Addicted Hobbiest 🙏 SSPH =Stay Safe and Play Healthy My Friend 💯🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁

    Amazing! Keep it up. Do you know what battery is best to use in drift rc's?
  • @edwinparani
    Love the videos man, learning a lot. When you adjusted you the gyro to slow down the servo, the red light on the gyro keeps blinking but the servo is working slower now, is the blinking red led normal?
  • Awesome review, what do recommend a better gyro? I am wondering the same thing if my gyro is good enough (cheap AFRC-gys-2 V3) or buy a specific expensive brand.
  • I run this gyro with reved rs-st servo, and its fine no gyro wobble in any speed, and its Very smooth it likes to keep big angles, seems too easy to control. I run it on normal mode, avcs is too slow for me.
  • Can you help me? I held down the MOD button for 4 seconds to flip the gyro. But what causes gyro and non-inverting?
  • @theAessaya
    Yeah, my MST RMX 2.0 came with the LSDx and it was pretty bad. Upgraded to the Yokomo DP-302 V4 and it was a night and day difference. Even w/o any other upgrades the car felt so much better and stable in drift.
