Losi 8ight Buggy or truggt which one is better ?
The price is way too much for this. I don’t see with all these plastic parts and single gear transmission where exactly the 620$ tag fits in. I’m driving a HSP Backwash Nitro buggy which costs me about 160$ and even my car can square up to this.
Used to dick around with my trusty Carson specter 1. Went to the track once, for fun, saw what they drove there. Returned with a used MBX6. Best descision. The Specter was a reliable, unbreakable car but, lets face it, it never was a good handling car. Max steering angle, packaging, weight, Geometry, Shocks, and not to mention that elephant of a 4.1 cc Force engine. Sucking fuel like no tomorrow.
Got a pretty good deal on a mbx6 with an os v-spec on it. Oh boy, it is a different world.
I like to drink beer and RC too.
Does the receiver charger in the description work on this car?
with the stock tune how much speed that you can get our of this buggy?
Would this thing be durable for bashing? I really want to find a name brand nitro car durable for bashing. I’d prefer an 1/8 buggy but really anything besides a short course truck. Anyone have any recommendations for me?
How fast does this thing go out the box?
does it have a fail safe feature?
Trashhhh
I admit the following is what i observed at the local track and not first hand. A fella i race with has raced his losi8 original fully optioned out for years, great buggy. Well he has two twin boys about 12 i think. He bought them the rtr and they were unable to break it for many weekends. They bent the front upper solid turnbuckles but their dad just switched em out from his spares box right at the track. I would recommend this buggy, also about 75% of the guys i race with race this platform in some form or other.
Is this good as a first rc. Or should i get the traxxas rustler nitro
The Thunder Tiger EB4 S2.5 is much cheaper. A race chassis and a non race engine (.28) for €200 on sale from germany.
What percentage fuel would you use on this
Can u give me a name of a good charger to use for that battery pack, or a tamiya adapter because I already have a smart charger. Considering buying
This or a new old stock 2.0 rtr roller for 200? The blue chassis 2.0.
best bang for your buck? caster racing. they have reasonable price.
Can you use a tlr 8ight 4.0 body on that??
What glow plugs do you use with 30% nitro in the buggy
Can u use 20% traxxas top fuel and traxxas glow plugs in this car
would any glow plug igniter work?
do u recommend using a kill switch on nitro rc car
I’m getting a brand new losi 8ight rtr buggy got her on layaway right now can’t wait too put my first payment on her.
My first nitro buggy ever 1/8 scale I’m soooooooooooo excited for it can’t wait too fill the tank up. Brap brap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
can you review the Tekno nb 48.4
What glow plug
What if they made a car that was nitro/electric
is there best nitro rc car more than losi
reply asap
The first issue I see is no bumper system up front. Call me stupid but face it, you WILL hit something by accident sooner or later. I know a guy that just bought one and already destryed the front gearbox by hitting it by accident. How hard is it to even offer a bumper system. I hear him saying things about optional parts to make things better,really? I dont know about you but when I buy something, the last thing I want to do is run back out and have to buy additional parts. Listen carefully to whst he says, I suspect you will agree with me, this car wouldnt be my first choice in Nitro RC cars.
I much prefer kits. That way youre getting hand on experience on its tolerances. Although i always appreciate pre cut lexan bodies
It’s nice and all but my exceed Madfire has more aluminum on it then this
What do you think about Team Energy 1/8 G8X nitro…
Can the kyosho pureten alpha gx12 be run on 20% nitro fuel?
Where i can find the turn buckless for the truggy?
Knowone cared about the box,can’t you be different then every single unboxing vid,why do u spend so much time on thebox when who buys it will read it
What is the connection on the battery ?
is it like any other brand and featured rc nitro car
OK so almost a year later, what’s the new best rtr nitro buggy or truggy with a price point close to this? Im solely electric but id like to further my knowledge.
