No, locktite is to help screws from not backing out of metal. You would need like some type of epoxy. Warning though. You will strip the diff easier. Use a small motor.

i tried masking tape on my m18 pro, works very fine. i think it has less grip than with electric tape...

Did you also tried locking the rear diff?

no, i just taped the tires yet and tried drifting in the living room...

Front-Diff was almost locked, rear diff was very loose. I will try it on sunday, when I am back...

You have to lock ur rear over the front. Since you need the rear spin out more. Depending on ur weight front one way diff will help, but not needed.
that way ur breaks/slow down wont distrubt the slide too much

I am setting my M18 for drift with Electrical tape also. Waiting for a new chasis this week =)

Yes sounds like ur Diffs are working.

Lock the rear Diffs, don't need to be completely locked just firmer.

Also try reving the trigger while you in a slide. Don't go into the turn full speed, this way you have more headroom for throttle to keep the tires spinning.

Stock set up didn't work for me to do pretty drifts, my new parts come in tomorrow or friday ^^

Maybe i can help more then.
