Show Us Your Losi Mini 8ight

Ye pretty much all the lipo chargers work off 12v (they use a transformer for mains)

I did use turnigy 2200mah 2s batteries when I first got it and they lasted about 25 min. A full charge takes maybe 40 min charging at 1c. Less if you charge at higher amps.

A 3s battery will be mental, mines almost too fast for the track on a 2s

Danny, I thought you said you'd spent some money on this ?

Looks great !! So I guess the aluminium from Thailand turned up ok?

Can't wait to see the new shell.

Heres mine neil as promised. Shell will arrive this week I think, I post another pic then.

Spec is as follows;

> Novak mongoose 10.5t combo

> Savox sh-1250mg servo with kimsbrough saver

> CF Shock towers and chassis brace (with alloy rear section)

> Custom CF battery strap

> Alloy front hinge pin holders

> Alloy hubs, spindles carriers and wheel hexes

> White RPM ball cups

> stainless steel screw set

> HPI worx emotion wheel with schumacher white rally block tyres

> Green anodized lock nuts all round

> Phat bodies rear wing

> Soft anti roll bar front and rear

> Carisma GT14B shocks with soft progressive shock springs

Car handles like its on rails on slippy floor. For carpet, medium springs make it hook up nice, too much grip with soft springs. (maybe stiffer anti roll bar may also help.

Any questions, feel free to ask, Danny :)

Oh, one other thing, do you have any play in your front end now Danny ?

nah front end is tight m8, and I was being modest when I'd said I'd spent some money... It's cost an arm and leg but its sooo nice now. Just bought a b44.1 yesterday. Then bought tekin redline rs pro esc with redline 5.5T motor, savox servo and some orion carbon saddlepacks. I need to make some money now, I'm feeling a bit poor....

So im wanting 3S and as big in mah as i can get so when you run flat you just click in a fresh battety in and your ready to go so i will need a few batterys to for a good bash aslo can you get a charger that both works in home and also off car or van 12v cig lighter

I run mine on 3s non stop just down gear it (swap to biggest spur) no heat issuse's i use the nano techs for the merv 1400mah 40-80c so loads of punch and speed along with that change the ESC to a eZrun 35a and swap out the servo make up some shock top protectors or buy a new tower with them built in and swap the shock bottoms stick on a t bone bumper and rear skid then bash all day if you want i can link it all or post up some pics of mine
