I prefer heat cycling without any low temp idling tanks.

It's one thing to ensure lubrication it's another to "mold" a decent fit between piston+sleeve.

I only run for 2-3 mins then cool @BDC

But whatever u do, cool at BDC

I'll be breakin in a rebuild early next week too :thumbsup:

Hi all!

Hoping you can help me, I have the motor and esc combo from a trophy flux but I cant see how to set the low voltage cut off for 4cell Lipos.

Ive skimmed the manual but nothing popped out at me, could be being a bit thick though :yawn:

Anyone know how I can set it up?

Thanks!

this is my break.

1 tank sitting

2 tanks on 1/4 throttle for little blips (2 seconds)

3 tanks going round a figure of 8 with small blips on half throttle

2-3 tanks going full throttle for over a 5-6 second period at a time

thats what I did with my first engine which lasted for 2 years without problems. obviously i had to change the clutch but that was about it engine wise.

RE: Diff oils.

I've been advised to use the following, by an RC mechanic. Found it to be spot on for pushing equal power to all wheels. Brand is "Core RC".

Front: 10,000 cps

Center: 30,000 cps

Rear: 10,000 cps

Hope this helps!

@ShadowDemon88 - Enjoy! Losi's are a great bit of kit. However, I've had nothing but trouble trying to tune my one. The engine needle settings are SERIOUSLY out for a RTR model. Make sure you triple check EVERYTHING as Losi seem to be crap at ensuring quality control on their factory lines!!

That is very similar to what I was told, except for 20k up front.

That Losi looks awseome, defo a lean mean racing maching.

Enough already with the diff oils its driving me mad every day someone has to bring it up.. Think I'll give this thread a break for a while it's becoming very tiresome banging on about the same old thing

Nice buggy shadow
