Our description
The MST RMX 2.5 RTR is the reference among entry drift cars – a 1:10 rear-wheel-drive (RWD), the classic drift layout. It comes ready to run (RTR, painted body) with a brushless drive (XBL 2500 kV), a 2.4 GHz radio and – crucially – a gyro (MGX) that assists countersteer and lets you drift from the start. Hard „street" drift tyres and scale brake discs are included. Not included are the drive battery (2S LiPo) and charger – you buy those separately (~€60–110). Important context: drifting is its own discipline. You need a smooth, flat surface, and reviews/owners report that floor imperfections can cause steering jitter (gyro tuning needed). In return the running-cost side is cheap: the hard drift tyres barely wear and are inexpensive, and upgrades (better servo/gyro, ball bearings, aluminium parts) are optional. MST has a broad spare-parts and tuning scene. For getting into RC drifting it's the most sensible, well-available choice – just not a „full-throttle straight-line" car, but one you learn.
