RC Driving Lesson EP3 – Intense Driving Ideas
31
May
What lessons or tips would guys like to see in the future?
He needs to put more brake and tuck his car into the track and the corner he also needs to brake sooner
Awesome vid!!!! E TRUGGY!!!! The premier class!!! ๐๐ค
Thats what I'm focusing on consistently. I know hot laps will come in time.
How do you not let the nerves get to you. Minute the announcer or timing system mentions my name, especially in the top 3 I crash ๐คฃ
Awesome video, and information for the inspiring racers!! Keep up the great work my friend!! ๐๐ผ
Iโd like to see a post/pre race โset upโ step by step…like first I check ride height, then camber, etc. basically after a race, before the next race
That truggy has soo much steering, wow.
This! Right here! This exact video is the reason everyone should get their start on a track by putting in at least one season in a 2wd anything. Every single point that was made is a technique that is forced upon a 2wd racer if they want a chance to get on the podium.
Had my first rc race this weekend and I TQ'd sportsman nitro buggy and got a pretty big lead after the first couple laps but then I wrecked three times on the same lap because I got all nervous. I fell all the back to tenth and gathered myself together, put down consistent, fast laps and got all the way back up to second. I can vouch, consistency is key!
See now this is help. Great job Ryan! We need more coach/drivers to help the newbies otherwise they are climbing a hill that seems impossible with some slight coaching you can get the most out of the talent at hand. I spent the last 13 months learning to drive so I could run with Ryan Harris and others but have yet to recieve any proper feedback that would improve my driving and if you want to keep people in the sport like me this will go a long way in doing so. To be fair I think me being in my 40s might have something to do with it plus my personality so I will take some responsability.. Anyway love this all we have is knowledge to pass on when it comes down to it..
Hey Ryan! If youre gonna make more like these have you considered getting a tripod setup like RedRC? that would make youre recording bits easier to focus on what the car is doing different. I know you like buying equipment haha!
What tires are you using?
You run smoothly and most of the others look like they push it all the time. Kind looks like they are just all over the place. Like you run like you are comfortable and others look really uncomfortable
Everyone is so worried these days about turning the wheels in the air. Thatโs just 1 more thing to mess you up. I understand it helps set up for corners but I seen so many people focus on whipping the car instead of just driving.
thank you for doing these videos Ryan it really helps us stay motivated and see even pro drivers are still learning every day and that keeps us less skilled know learning to be faster isn't everything
I really enjoyed seeing Carlos improve almost immediately with some basic instruction on running smooth and maintaining consistency. Nice job, Ryan ๐ I had someone tell me once that they couldn't understand why I was faster than them because I looked SO slow, lol. I told them smooth consistent laps are key, the speed will come with time!
way too many ads..I understand the revenue part..but could cut it down to like 60%..as it can get a bit annoying
Excellent! Ryan and Carlos, thankyou for the lesson. Great vid, great track, and I got a lot out of it, cheers.
Wow a 1000 laps he's just walking threw it then
The reason why he's gunning it before the 180 is because she's going to lose so much time when he finally gets to that 180 to make that turn and when he comes to a stop to make that turn he's losing seconds don't forget that
I would turn down the epa a bit on that truggy. Itโs turning a full 180 on the spot and itโs catching him out. If he had a bit less steering he would have to actually have to drive lines instead of stopping and flipping 180 on every corner. Your advice was sound though. He drives like itโs the last lap of the world championships and heโs trying to catch first . Turn it down to 90% full
Throttle .
carlos less whips more downsides
So first off – Carlos – solid rips man, fun to watch you progress! Ryan -I love the format of these โimprovementโ videos, primarily because you arenโt dictating to Carlos the things he should do or not do. Driver style is as unique as our haircuts, so itโs refreshing to see you ask questions of Carlos and almost watch him figure it out through that process with some light and reaffirming positive commentary from you. I wish South FLA wasnโt a 16 hour drive from Toronto – Iโd be there in a heartbeat! Lol. Keep up the good work lads!
I personally just try out different lines and speeds while practicing. Reason being the track may be blown out, Traction could be low, etc. So I think it's good to try out different Speeds and lines. This is dope though. I would love to have some help from a seasoned rc buddy. Great Series!
this track looks awesome!
Ryan! Thanks for all the videos and the advice. I have a 22t 4.0 stadium truck. Iโm having trouble setting up my hobby wing xt10 pro g2 elite. I have a 6.5t motor. I want to make the truck fast. What setting on the esc do you recommend? Thanks man.
Everything that was said here was golden Ryanโs always coming at us with that good info and if youโre just a beginner youโll soon realize itโs all about the throttle control and making the right decision
Love your content… anything from driving videos, to tuning and setup advice, etc…
Great vid mate…paerfect track.๐
What the oil dif in the first truggy. Front rear and center… Thanks
how about a video of the "boring" stuff
what equipment, tools, how many batter backs, how many sets of tires/wheels, how much grease/oil/fuel
There's some great points in this video, go out and be consistent, but also go out and hot lap it a bit too so that you know where on the track you're good and your car is good at being aggressive and where the points are where it's not good to do so.
I will say that in practice I notice I get more aggressive when the track gets more crowded because I want to get around traffic as quickly as possible. I don't know if that's a good stratagy or not, it's how I used to drive oval practices. In my ten years of sponsored oval racing, the more quickly I got around slow traffic in practice made it easier to pass slower cars for me in an actual race. Towards the end of that ten year career I can't really recall a time of not being one of the top three drivers in a race and I had lots of experience driving as the lead car. My driving style was definitely more conservative when I was in the lead, keeping it clean and consistent and then changing to being aggressive getting around slow traffic.
The times I changed my style were when the lead car was holding a better line and I couldn't get a pass. I usually reverted to two options at that point.
1. Stay within a length or two and keep the pressure on and wait for us to come up on back markers and see if an opportunity presented itself. I hated this option, but I would rather finish second than make a bad pass.
2. Back off a few lengths if the third place car was a ways behind us and then start building up speed through the corners so that i could perform a quick pass when I caught up to the leader. This option didn't always work, but it would mess with people when all of a sudden you see the second place car gaining speed and distance on you all of a sudden.
3. I used this one a lot, let third place pass me and then pressure that car into making the pass that I didn't want to take. There were a number of times when I would pass along with that driver and then pass them shortly afterwards and take the lead.
Oval racing was about getting the most out of yourself and the car while also trying to keep the car under control, there was fine line between pushing through the turns and spinning out and I would rather drive a car that pushed and then work towards it almost spinning out and that's where I drove it.
The main point from all this is learning what setup you like and how that setup compliments your driving style. Then also knowing when and where to add more aggressiveness to your driving while always keeping in mind that the aggressive driving could have great payoffs, but it can also be detrimental if used at the wrong time or all the time.
Great video Ryan! My teammates and I always critiqued our driving to make sure we were getting the most out ourselves in each race. I was critiqued by my team for driving a wide line. I was told that I was driving more distance, but I usually had the faster lap times and I also would come off the track with a little extra battery time (in the80's and 90's battery packs usually last four minutes with a little extra if you were lucky). I figured that meant the longer track line through the turns was allowing me to maintain my speed and therefore I was using a little less
battery power. This use to really confuse a few of my teammates and sometimes I was handed the second best motor and second best battery and I would still win the race and have a few seconds of battery to spare.

Much quicker, and smooth
can we get a video on reading tracks for tires and how to judge speed on jumps.
I think something that is immensely beneficial to driving but not really talked about is how we physically interact with our radios. I noticed in myself that if I focused on keeping the muscles in my upper body, arms, hands, and fingers as relaxed as possible I could control my car on the track much more precisely and consistently. I'd be interested in seeing a video on something like that as well as maybe the mental aspects of driving and maintaining focus.
He was definitely a lot more consistent than the previous run! Slower is faster because of the fact is that your concerving energy and power and not forcing the vehicle to push in and out of the corners!
I'm at work watching this and its getting me fired up to do some virtual rc driving on vrc pro lol
Nice person, nice track Bartow FL ๐ช๐
excellent stuff really love this series, thanks for sharing Ryan. Subbed and Liked in support
Really enjoyed your video, however I feel the title is more the opposite in that it's how to be smooth. I clicked hoping to find a video about how to find that second gear. My problem is I drive to conservative
What is Carlos running ?
It all works I just canโt to seem to drive constantly lap in 1/10 carpet off-road an did notice while driving slower is better but when in doubt I pull trigger ty
Carlosโ problem is a problem we all have ๐
Thatโs some good stuff thank you
What track is this?
On a track like this what diff fluid is running that truggy?
Great content guys
