KKPIT PD-K PDK 1/10 Rear-Drive RC Drift Frame (Chassis Kit)

The PDK frame is the barebone 1/10 rear-drive drift chassis kit, with no servo, motor, ESC, electronics or body shell.

This is a chassis kit for a builder: you supply the electronics, and the listing states exactly what is and is not included.

The PDK Drift suits drifters who want a rear-drive chassis they can set up and tune themselves. KKPIT lists the battery as 2S short-body ultra-thin.

140 KKPIT spare parts in our range are listed against this car, so you can order the wear items with it.

Here’s how you might tailor your build based on your experience level or goals:

Build Tips & Best Practices

1. Part Sourcing: Plan and list required components—steering gear, motor, ESC (gyro if preferred), servo, battery, wheels/tires, body shell, and any extra tuning parts like adjustable arms.

2. Layout Planning: Refer to the images to see common component placement. Consider battery and motor positioning to balance weight and center of gravity.

3. Flexible Setup: The adjustable wheelbase and track width let you experiment—for example, a shorter wheelbase for tighter drifts or wider track for stability.

4. Material Handling: Use proper tools when tightening carbon fiber or aluminum parts. Avoid overtightening to prevent strip issues or warping.

5. Fine Tuning: Once built, invest time dialing suspension (springs, oils, shocks) and setup angles to suit your drift style—inside track, wide turns, or freestyle.

6. Future Expandability: You can add gyro steering systems, differential upgrades, or even swap in electronics later—this kit supports long-term evolution.
