I Bought a $14 "Broken" RC Drift Car... Was It Worth It? #RCaDayChallengeJuly2026 Day 10

HSP Flying Fish 1/10 RC Drift Car Auction Rescue! I bought this broken RC drift car for just $14 at auction to see if it was really broken or an unbelievable deal. Join me as I unbox it, inspect the chassis, test the electronics, and find out if this classic drift car is worth restoring. Day 10 of the #RCaDayChallengeJuly2026! This HSP Flying Fish was listed as "not working" and looked completely torn apart in the auction photos. I hadn't even opened the box before filming, so everything you see is my genuine first impression. During the inspection we discover that the motor, ESC, and steering servo all work, making this auction find much better than expected. It isn't perfect though—we're missing a rear dogbone, the rear wing is broken, and there's still plenty to figure out before this drift car is ready to hit the pavement again. What We Found ✅ Working ESC ✅ Working Motor ✅ Working Steering Servo ❌ Missing Rear Dogbone ❌ Broken Rear Wing 🔧 Excellent Restoration Potential Would you restore it to stock, build it into a custom drift car, upgrade it to brushless, or install a completely different body? Let me know what you'd do in the comments! If you enjoy RC cars, auction finds, RC repairs, restorations, upgrades, speed runs, and honest real-world testing, you're in the right place.
