Feedtheinferno Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Not worrying about the money its more the experience, take money out of the picture as I will be paying for losi upgrades when it comes regardless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersavage35 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 (edited) It will be very hard to destroy the losi I barrel rolled mine full speed into a wooden fence at a track the other week it took it like nothing had happend. It is the toughest RC I own and I have owned a few. Save the money for upgrades or spares just incase.

Feedtheinferno Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Well its more that my jobs pays well enough for me to have a few luxury's. Right so even as a practice platform the KM is no good at all? I'm not saying all 1/5ths are the same as I have a XRC at the moment and im gentle with it so I dont break it constantly. I just wanted the KM to get used to the bashing side of things as I have never bashed any of my RC's yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feedtheinferno Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Again, spares and upgrades will be covered so we need not worry about saving money for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersavage35 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Here is a video of a losi getting a beating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feedtheinferno Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Wow I'm looking forward to getting it even more now! However I do fancy getting another buggy too and back to the original post, are the KM's any good? Thanks for the video Savage, losi's are amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersavage35 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 (edited) I can't tell you if KMs are any good but if you wanted a buggy and money wont be an issue get a HPI baja or you could get one of these for your losi http://www.davesmoto...it.A/id.9721/.f Edited August 7, 2012 by supersavage35 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin3171 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 the KM bajas get great reviews from all the poeple that own them. They are the better of the clones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feedtheinferno Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 I was only jokeing about the motor but if you do end up getting one let us know. I have seen the odd vid on you tube of that motor its a monster. Oh right, well I wasn't. The price seems fine for what it is and if I'm getting a serious RC I may as well spend some serious money upgrading it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayce Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Owning both,they are very different bits of kit,and to be honest i dont think the baja will teach you anything for use with the losi,except starting the engine They are soooo different to drive,there is very little comparison tbh.

Thanks Jayce I appreciate it, although I just cant help myself and will have to get one now as so many people say they are different I would like a go and who can say no for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tectic Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 For a novice to 1/5th scale I would say the Losi is the perfect platform It is probably the strongest 1/5th and easy to work on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
