HPI has the "D-Box" thats a drift assist unit, same dam thing.
Club racing rules may or may not apply. You'll figure out real quick when someone see's it and starts bitchin'.
They are NOT ROAR approved LOL.
Put it in and have Fun !


I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.

One plug goes to the receiver and the other to your steering servo. The gyro's main job is to keep your car tracking straight and it works so good, it's banned from racing. I'm trying to find a way to completely hide a gyro from view and go to a race and beat the hell out of all the professionals .
Take an old Am receiver, the humoungous ones, rip the inernals out, then retrofit the circuit board from a spektrum micro receiver- and the internals from the gyro into the cas and you will be good to go:) remember to cover the "spektrum DSM" sticker on your radio. CA an old crystal to the outside of it so it looks official

I fiddled with gyros for a while, kinda fun. The thing I liked it for was a high speed run, when you're braking hard, you track straight (2wd Rustlers don't enjoy stopping from 80+mph), the thing I didn't like was loosing traction under hard acceleration over say 60mph and getting a little sideways, you could see the gyro (even with the gain turned way down) hunting and the car swerving side to side fighting itself...worse than being in 100% control IMO, I'll crash all by myself thanks very much!
