Yokomo YD-2 1/10th RWD drift chassis

Coming soon from Yokomo is the YD-2 rear wheel drive drift car chassis kit. Specially designed for RWD drifting the car features a specially designed chassis with an unique transmission and motor layout that reminds of 2WD mid motor dirt buggies with its high layshaft position. The somewhat higher centre of gravity makes for improved chassis roll during cornering while the front suspension parts allow for the high steering angles needed for drifting. Available as composite or carbon fibre chassis variant the car allows to use standard or shorty LiPo battery packs, it utilises new rear YD-2 hub carriers, YD-4 parts fit as a setup option, and the kit comes with a large rear diffusor. The YD-2 is set for a release this Spring.

After 18 months of development Yokomo have finally released a totally new designed RWD Drift car. Here is the new drift chassis specially designed for RWD (rear wheel drive) drifting. With 2WD drift cars you can obtain unbelievable steering lock angle coupled with the unique A Arm. The back end of the chassis incorporates a new layout for the motor and spur gear. With this been placed a little higher than normal it allows for roll when drifting. The YD-2 also features a newly designed gearbox to which Yokomo feel this will be the RWD chassis to beat.

The standard YD-2 comes with a composite tub chassis and you can choose to fit standard LiPo’s or shorties. Many of the YD-4 chassis parts that will fit the YD-2 so have a look at the optional upgrades available.
