Dazmania Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Looking sweet there buddy , Took mine out today for the first time since getting it yesterday and threw it 20-30ft distances. I am seriously impressed how light they are in the air compared to my Hyper and the amount of control I have over its flight. No breakages either today which means I can do it all again tomorrow (hopefully with vids) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyronn Posted December 26, 2011 Author Share Posted December 26, 2011 (edited) thanks mate, i am impressed to by the 8ight as to the lightness of it and how easy it is to clean if you remove the front and rear end. i am having a slight issue witht he steering though but i think that is up to the stock servo cant handle the torque. if you get some footage post some links be good to see yours mate xD.

Dazmania Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Ok, here is my attempt at putting a little video together of our 2 Losi's in action yesterday. Only breakage was a front hinge pin on the White Losi after an attempt at a secound back flip. Hope you enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyronn Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 nice footage mate, what spring rate's front/rear are you guys using in the 2 8ightsT's. What are the difference between the white and the orange truggies if there are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazmania Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 The white one has the losi conversion kit and a Tekin set up and my one has the Tekno conversion kit, castle esc and trackstar motor. Not sure about the springs yet, but I have Grey on the front and purple on the back. I can tell you, it can take a beating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really sure to be honest, I bought it as a roller. I don't even know what the colour springs represent yet haha but I do know my shock towers are thicker than the white truggy. His also has stabilisers/anti roll front and back and mine doesn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyronn Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 haha ok mate, guess we both something the same to learn about xD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazmania Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 I'll be picking it down this week to redo the shock oils and front and rear diffs. So far I have only changed the center oil to 30K I'm running on a 50t spur so now looking to get a 48 but not in a hurry as it performs ok as it is.

cyronn Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 this how mine is setup atmo from stock if you want a reference mate . I will start to play around with the diff oil's and springs soon. i would also like a little more rear ground clearance or probably stiffen the rear stocks is probably a better idea?

Dazmania Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Just spent the evening on my first shell. I wanted to keep it simple with clean lines and a mean ish look to it. Its a Proline Bulldog shell, love the sleekness of it and poise it gives off. Took a few work in progress shots to show what went into it. I am very pleased with it and cannot wait to show it off to the guys, but interested to hear views Shell cut out Masks added Black paint put on first and then peeled off masks Side view Next up was a few coats of yellow with some white paint backing Final coat of black and window masks removed Finished product with just the headlight decals added so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
