FPS RC Drift shoots 1/10 cars with a full-frame Sony and a gimbal

FPS RC DRIFT is a UK YouTube channel covering RC drift from the UK, Ireland and beyond: event and track films, live streams, a members' tier and the FPS RC Drift Podcast, which has run episodes with Scaledrift and Bullhead. The channel does not name a filmer in the material here, so this is the work rather than the person behind it.

The interesting part is the kit list, which the channel publishes itself. Its 6 June 2026 upload, "The Biggest Slide House Upgrade Ever!", lists a Sony A7 IV, a Sony 24-70 mm, a Sony 70-200 mm G Master and a DJI Ronin. That is a full-frame stills body, a long zoom and a gimbal pointed at 1/10 cars — a scale where the whole subject is about 190 mm of polycarbonate shell over a roughly 257 mm wheelbase, and where a long lens flattens a layout into something that reads like a circuit.

The shorts push it further. "Door Hunting From The Chase Car!" (3 June) and "The Most Cinematic RC Drift Footage Ever?" (9 June, tagged #chase cam) are built around a camera car running with the drift cars for door-to-door proximity shots; the material does not say what that chase car is. A 7 June short is titled "RC Drift Through A £12,000 Lens", though which lens is not stated. Another June short carries the channel's own claim of a first fully functional 1:10 wind tunnel, which nothing here verifies.
