Hi dougie. I wouldn't recommend a losi personally, not the best car tbh. Most tracks now are classed as high grip so a forward motor car is the car of choice atm. Either a team c tm2, xray xb4 2 or a Schumacher cougar kf. The mid motor cars are still capable of being quick it's just preference. As for the electrics there's not a lot of options for a good stick set. Budget is a core/etroniks set for around £80 ish. Mid range is a sanwa Gemini X for around £200 or top of the range is either the sanwa exzes z or a ko esprit 4 both around £450 mark. As for electrics it's whatever your budget can stretch too.
Everything you need you'll find from either mb models, je models or Insideline racing. All provide a very good service.
Good luck
Ps Yokomo do a good mid motor 2wd, Bmax. I know you liked your dog fighters.
