Few things to note form the LIVE Q&A currently on Facebook - Buggy runs a stock 20t pinion over the 5ive's 19t and has a completely different FDR - Buggy spur gear has holes drilled for reduced weight, whole drive train is lighter to help reduce rotational mass - Exhausts are still being produced by venders - Suspensions arms are not the same as the 5ive and they're not the same as the 5ive Mini either - Doesn't come with an exhaust

They're LIVE on Facebook and I asked them about the chassis, confirmed that it's 2.5" shorter then the 5ive T chassis, that will rule out certain exhausts from fitting.

I wonder how much shorter it is.... If it's a decent amount that'll kill off exhaust support...

Jet washed it with snow foam!!!

Based on seeing one being thrashed around for 9 months in a genuine Losi 5ive and never missing a beat while constantly hitting over 19,000rpm.... It's a seriously impressive engine for it's price and capacity.... And there's really no need for the rolling eyes.....

For how light it looks like it's going to be the best engine for it would the 29cc SCZ engine....

Bye bye X2!!!

Is it a tweaked Genesis?

Weight will be interesting!! My X2 is just over 19kg now....

No take it out and crash it

I've yet to break mine and it's had some very bad landings from 8-10 feet in the air....... And out of the 5 that's in my group I've only seen one bent suspension arm pin from a very harsh landing.

Now I have the 30 Degree's North panels and if you run the panels with 190mm tires ( Instead of the stock 180mm ) it makes all the difference as the tires fill the rear arch up better. Not to mention that due to how the panels are designed the tires will never rub on them, the front section also wraps around the cage so it's stops a lot more rubbish getting in to the chassis then the stock panels do to.

ALX78.....

I'm been close to getting another Blackout but just a little apprehensive as to how the diff cups will hold up to my style of driving and how it'll cope with my ESP G320.

that quick release gas tank kit looks interesting... might have to get that!
