Tough task - especially as we were packaging the Castle Mamba Max Pro ESC which is not known for its small footprint - but we managed it :)
Any pics of your machine ;)

i think im going to be pre-ordering 1 , wish it was already avialable could do with treating myself for xmass

Seriously tempted to sell my SV now and take the XXCR Kinwald to Petit, just a question of whether it'll be strong enough!

Failing that the SV will go after Petit I think...

From Todd Hodge
This car will not have a servo saver included. It is a pure bred race vehicle and with today's high end servos we are confident that this is fine. During all of our testing with many drivers we never failed a servo or broke a steering arm or rack. Many racers lock their servo savers down anyways.

Darren Boyle 04-12-2010 08:37 PM
Unless the description is wrong, there is one in the parts list...

Holeshot 04-12-2010 09:29 PM
Hope alot of testing has been done with the servo's. Servo's & Losi haven't gone to well to together. How many servo's did the Losi 8IGHT chew through? (although that wasn't a servo saver problem)

Not bad specs on that servo that the team is using.

My Question to the team is when is Horizon and spektrum going to make a stick transmitter for cars?
Still can't figure out how guys use stick radios. It's a car, turn a wheel. :p I know, to each their own.

I'm not crazy about the no servo saver thing either. There are a variety of on-servo savers, I just hope they'll fit. The car is looking really good at the Spektrum race in Wisconsin, US.

Maybe with this, we Yanks will figure out how to get a mid-motor car to work for us. It's a superior format and for some reason we're stuck on the VW bug format.

Steel turnbuckles, or am I seeing things? I'd kill those just doing my Uri Geller impression let alone in race situation.

But for me - Im a Losi guy, My lucky number is 22 (no joke) and if the release date is to be believed at this point 22/2/11....that would be my birthday......SOLD.

Yes she does :)

It's not out until Feb, so we'll see. Always loved Losi though, but that is down to have a XX years ago with hydra drive etc.

Cant wait to see what they come up with for a 4WD.

"GAY"

Gnarly Old Dog 05-12-2010 06:59 PM
I have it on good authority (and not Welsh Authority I may add) that yellow wheels are race wheels and white wheels are practice ones.

This newfound revelation may explain why I'm so slow these days:cry:
