Losi 5T Buggy conversion.

Recommended Posts

As FG haven't released the new buggy yet, I decided to have a look at something new. Not wanting to splash out too much, I decided to take a look at the various buggy conversions available and decided to go with the Freeprawn racing set up.

 

So whats been done so far I hear you ask.......

 

Rolling chassis and bits bought from Nige - Check

 

Call in at Triple A racing on the way home from Freeprawn to have the chassis modded - Check

 

Play about with various servo layouts and decide on what I think will work best - Check

 

Look at body mounts for the Grafil shell - Check

 

Fit engine bit of the DBXL cage - Check

 

Engine will be from Oddified

 

Pipe will be a Samba from Freeprawn

 

Clutch is undecided but will probably be Tourex or Oddified

The air filter is a mod I did to the Leopard so I could fit an airbox to fit in with the efra rules - as you can see I use a plumbing fitting along with a bit of pond pump hose and a couple of oddified flanges either end onto an FG air fiter.

 

Yes you do need to get on with it.
