Does anyone know how a 4WD RC Driveshaft works in an RC drift car? Cause I'm designing an RC drift car for Jada Toys(They're first ever RC drift car).So if anyone knows how an RC Driveshaft works, I'll be glad to know.

3 things would really be helpful in the situation.
#1. exploded parts views,and renderings,from manufactures such as tamiya,losi,yokomo,etc.
#2. jada toys REALLY needs a new designer
#3. i'm thinkin somebody is off their meds.............................

LMAO... Nice one Chebbie... but it is true... if you work for Jada toys... you really need to get away from that Nikko rc crap and come into the real world of rc... because us normal ppl spend atleast 250 or more for a good rc car... not 50 dollors from our piggy banks

well its true... if you don't have any knolage about a 4WD friggin SHAFT.... then you don't work for jada toys... all they are, are just cheaply made motors and suspentions... with to much work put into the bodies.... like you have a bad ass 69 charger r/t with the clear hood and the engine showin... and it also lights up... whats up with that... put some work into the car... not the bodys...

Do you mean Drive Shaft or Prop Shaft??
rcfreak, can I honestly ask, how can you be an rcfreak when your experimenting with Toys?
I know your only young, But a Little bit of home Based Reasearch will give you all the "How does that Work " answers you need.
Rip the Shell off any RC you have , then look at how they work,
