LOS05002C Losi 1/5 scale petrol 5ive RTR with AVC


53HRA

Recommended Posts

That would be great. But idk i think this has lost the tough look the black/white shell had.

I just want a 5ive in my life. :(

Then it'd probably bore me to tears by being too good/easy to drive! :)

Never had 5th scale, have fancied one for a good few years now and thought id convinced myself that the hpi Baja 5b would be the one if funds allow, but now I do like like the look of this new colour scheme, and still think the losi would be a tougher better package if you want to do a bit of jumping aswell as just running it round a flat field,

I prefer the black and white colour scheme. I don't know why they fitted it with AVC though as Losi set them up to be a bit too safe and understeery.

Thought the same, why does the most stable large scale platform on the market need AVC?

Then I realised gimmicks sell units! Kudos, Mr Losi

With AVC active can you still use a kill switch? After reading this I'm not sure you can.

 

Aux channels

The Aux channels can operate as additional servo channels, or as a power supply for a personal transponder. If AVC is active, only two channels, Steering and Throttle, are operational. The Aux channels can be used to power a personal transponder or lights. If AVC is disabled (see Disabling the Stability Assist Function to disable AVC), the Aux channels will operate as servo channels.

Minor updates rather than a different model. Old model is just fine so no more than a facelift needed....

 

Don't like the colours at all... wonder if they'll offer a choice similar to 'black on white' or white on black' and whether this will be offered alongside the old colours or replacing it.....?

 

:confused:

Looked at the modelsport website it does say 29cc on there and you can see it on the engine in the pics, olny question for me is where have they made savings on the truck, and is the 29 cc engine good quality etc, um tempted but would need to see it running to get an idea of power and speed, also is it as durable as original, just get the feeling they have scrimped in other areas here to be able to fit in a radio and bigger engine etc in price
