coolas4k Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Hi, I'm considering getting a losi 8ight but just want a bit of advice first please? Is there much difference between the 8ight 2.0 and 8ight 2.0e? And if I bought the 8ight 2.0e, can it be easily converted to electric? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolas4k Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 I meant 8ight 2.0 eu not 8ight 2.0 e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC4ever Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Do you mean the EU ? The "e" on it's own normally stands for electric the EU however is the same as the 2.0 just has all the hop ups, all you need to convert it would be a conversion kit like this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Losi-8IGHT-Electronic-Conversion-Kit-8B-8T-/140710702108?pt=UK_ToysGames_RadioControlled_JN&hash=item20c302ec1c#ht_2138wt_962 Hope this helps buddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Autodromobuggy Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Hi to all in the owners club.... Found mine on Ebay a couple of weeks ago just in time for a birthday present to self. Gen 1 but unmarked save a few scratches to lower rear arms and stoneguards. Think it must've been a spare but they may have given up as came with shed loads of spares, starterbox, DX3 times 2, temp gauge and all chargers...... V chuffed.....The Rossi had not been run. Have only had time to do a couple of idle tanks on the box and looking forward to running in. Anyone with experience of this engine? Advice appreciated. It's a 21B special dated 2008. Be great to meet more of you. Great pics of the cars from all. P.S. Bridgestone/Castrol stickers are mine as are my unused EB4 wheels. Just like the black.. Andy.

Sebcoe Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 (edited) Is there a special diff oil? what are you guys using? Edited March 18, 2012 by Sebcoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazmania Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 In my set up I have 15K or 30K in the front, 50K in the centre and 5K in the rear The main reason for this was to reduce ballooning of the front tyres and the nose on the ground more. It's certainly better than the buggy set up I was using when I first got it. (5,7,3) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
