    How much 2 stroke oil in ml do I put in straight into a 5 litre petrol can on a 25:1 mix ratio? Thanks In Advance.

      Of course, you want to run the car in gently for the first tank and once that's done. Let rip, you don't need to worry about heat, it should only be a concern with damaged gaskets so on a new engine just run it in for a full tank at no more than half throttle and you will be golden.

      Thanks for that. I'm still thinking like a nitro-head. Heat cycles etc.

      The 32cc has had some issues with cooling... may want to read up on that. Not sure how bad it is though.

  7. nitromaddm

    I'm going to treat myself to a 32cc soon but.... I'm the meantime will I be ok with 26cc CY with race pipe? Thanks In Advance.

      What do you mean when you say 'will I be okay'?

    2. nitromaddm

      In the sense of how good are the CY engines in general. Thanks In Advance.

    4 bolt crankcase beyond repair on my 30.5cc engine. Do I repair or look for a new engine?

    1. Oh How Original

      Oh How Original

      Depends what's beyond repair about it... You can always buy a new long block and put all the bits from the broken engine on, provided everything else is in working order.

    2. nitromaddm

      nitromaddm

      Crankcase, clutch mount shot/seen better days.

    3. Oh How Original

      Oh How Original

      Clutch mounts aren't expensive, I'd still go down the route of a long block if you're wanting a different engine anyway... Most sites let you mix and match parts, like Innovative-RC, so you could include a clutch if you wanted to.

  9. nitromaddm

    Which is better to start off with... Losi 5ive with 26cc with race pipe or 30.5cc with race pipe?

      Can I use a stock clutch with a 30.5cc engine or would you reccomend something with a little more bite?

    3. Feedtheinferno

      Feedtheinferno

      The stock clutch is fine it will just ware a little faster due to the higher torque. You will however want to upgrade to a red spring for it though.

    4. nitromaddm

      nitromaddm

      Cool. For clutch removal will I need a piston stopper or something different? I'm new to this 1/5 scale business so please any help will be invaluable. Thanks In Advance.

  10. nitromaddm

    Can anyone recommend a decent 2 stroke oils for a 30.5cc engine for a Losi 5ive? Thanks In Advance

      I tried writing on boards with my Mini8 and it was awful. Ate a mini revo and didn't feel well for days. Burger is king

    SC or another Truggy? #pros/cons

    1. Didski

      Didski

      SC - I think they are more durable! I've only had one truggy which was great, but it wasn't as much fun as SC!

    2. Oh How Original

      Oh How Original

      You can't just say a SCT is more durable lol, it depends on the model... Turnigy SCT vs Losi 8ight T for example, Losi would win hands down... I've found a certain love for SCT's lately, so I'm going to say SCT :) just got myself an AE SC10RS after putting quite a few packs through my mates, it's a whole heap of fun, handles superb and looks the part.
