rcmonkey.jp, the Japanese RC news feed carrying HPI's Shanghai D10 video
A short look at ラジコンもんちぃ (rcmonkey.jp), the Japanese site posting maker news day by day, starting with its write-up of HPI Racing's Stage-D10 session at JSM Drift Club in Shanghai.
New on the scene
What the site is
ラジコンもんchi — written for the web as rcmonkey.jp — is a Japanese RC news site that posts maker announcements, new product releases and video round-ups as they appear. The material doesn't say who runs it or when it started, so take it as it reads: a steady feed of what RC makers and channels have just published, credited and linked.
Its October 3 post covers HPI Racing's video "Stage-D10 - JSM Drift Club", filmed at JSM Drift Club in Shanghai, China. HPI brought the Stage-D10 to the club and asked local competition drivers and experienced drivers for their impressions of a first run. Team AD factory driver Xie R.D., known as TKS BRO, takes part, as does drift car designer Kira Miao. The post does not give the track surface, the tyre used or any setup detail from the session.
If you want the chassis's own paperwork rather than the video, HPI's startup guide, user guide, parts list and setup sheets for the car are collected on the Stage-D10 manuals page.
What else it has run in the past two weeks
The drift-relevant posts from the same fortnight give the clearest picture of the site's range:
- MST's introduction video for the Stealth Anti-Detachment Magnetic Body Mount, a magnetic body mount with an anti-detachment structure.
- G-FORCE's BLC160 PRO Brushless ESC, announced with reverse-polarity protection and listed for release in late October.
- Part one of G-FORCE's drift lecture series on ESCs with 広坂正美.
- MRC's weight and ESC mount for TT-01, TT-02, BT-01 and MB-01.
- RLAARLO's walkthrough of the LSD for its RWD drift car, the XDX.
- かずもんちゃんねる's look at a Mini-Z MRD drift course installed at ラジコン天国名古屋店 — small scale, not 1/10.
- 麻婆亀仙流's tour of RC makers at the 全日本模型ホビーショー, covering new products and display items.
The posts are in Japanese and short, each one pointing back at the maker's or channel's own video or release page.
