Starting Out with the Yokomo Rookie Drift RD2.0

The Yokomo Rookie Drift RD2.0 Assembly Chassis Kit is geared toward drivers who want a controllable drift platform that is also adaptable. Yokomo focused the RD2.0 on stability and accessible tuning so new drivers can build confidence while experienced hobbyists can refine setup.

Accessible Handling that Rewards Tuning

The chassis delivers steady rear traction and increased steering angle which helps keep slides predictable while you tweak throttle and steering inputs. The layout is forgiving for practice sessions yet offers clear upgrade points to improve steering precision and balance as your style evolves.

What Was Improved

This iteration includes a tuned gearbox for smoother power transitions and revised suspension mounts to boost lateral stability. Changes to the steering wiper and rack boost steering fidelity, aiding accurate line placement and faster recovery during linked drifts.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Chassis Type: Drift-spec with expandable options
  • Gearbox: 4-gear configuration
  • Suspension: Front and rear mounts with short arms
  • Steering: Optimized Ackermann for precision control
  • Battery Holder: Adjustable for short and long batteries

The Yokomo Rookie Drift RD2.0 gives a capable platform for both practice and upgrades, making it suitable for hobbyists who plan to grow their setup over time.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.
Yes, most 1/10 drift tyres fit the wheel hubs used on this kit; tyre compound and width will significantly affect slide behaviour.
Try increasing steering trim precision, softening rear springs slightly and reducing rear toe to stabilise low speed drift entries.
Basic hex drivers, a small philips screwdriver, and bearing oil are sufficient for routine service; a setup gauge helps with consistent suspension tuning.
Shifting the battery forward tightens steering and reduces rear slip, while moving it back increases rear rotation for easier initiation of longer drifts.
Yes, with the right tyres and tuning the RD2.0 can be competitive at club drift meets; most changes focus on steering response and tyre selection.
