To top it all of I’ve gotta admit this thing looks good for a motor.Like i said It’s black, it’s got fins , it says TURBO on the side,It sounds like a squirrel mincer. What more could you want?

But hold on a second here,i didn’t say it was perfect didn’t i? Well if it was perfect then none of us would learn anything would we. The ESC does and i mean it really needs a decent amount of tweaking for you to really get a feel that suits your type of driving.

Drivers using this motor also need to get the concept of power delivery in drifting whereby a heavy finger will usually result in a bad crash.This is what it says…..Professional Motor.

All in all i think if you were to compare this to a real car you get a million horsepower but thats just me.It’s a hurricane in 30grams.Digest that.

Looks:8.5/10
Performance:7.5/10
Price:8.5/10
User Friendliness:7.5/10
Manual:7/10

Verdict:If you’re looking for power, it’s here.

Imagine putting a big 5 litre V8 in a small saloon car.Then imagine blending up squirels alive while adding in a little metal.Well the first sentence describes the power and the second well thats exactly how it screams.read on to find out what it’s all about.

In the beginning i had some uncertainties about sensorless brushless technology.A lot have complains about cogging (trembling) problems and most of them were not smooth.But after some tech discussions with Haidi, Chee Yong and Azhar of Tamiya I was told that the sensorless technology these days have improved a lot with plenty of custom settings allowed by the user.Plus the Drift Master Speed Passion Set comes with an ESC program card.After much consideration i got a set.

My first impression of it was it’s black it’s got fins on it, It’s 9.5turns and it’s going for RM499 retail, and it scares you just listening to it.These are the basic features and specs before i go on.

Motor type:Brushless Sensorless
Turns : 9.5t brushless – equivalent to 19turns brush
Features:Water resistant,Updatable by USB,and has a variable racing profile
Items included:Motor,ESC,Program Card.

Ok, after installation i thought I’d try it out.Installation was easy as plug and play although the ESC does need to be set in order for it work properly.It took a minute and it was easy.To the tracks for the first time saw some lag and a weird feel to how the power came.Things wasn’t going so well at first.

Then i was told that a few adjustments could be made via the Program Card.So i whipped out the manual and started going through the features.
