Anybody have or heard about the "d-box" in the real world??
The HPI video looks impressive!
Maybe once the price tag comes down a bit I would like to try it on an
off-road stadium truck....

:rolleyes:

In my opinion the D-Box or any gyro for that matter is just not as fun as actually counter steering and correcting the vehicle yourself. It might take a while to learn and perfect this but in the long run you will get more enjoyment out of it. And this goes for whether you are drifting or driving an off-road rc.

But if you want to give it a try Futaba makes a gyro that is basically the same as the D-Box but less expensive.

I believe this is it...
