Losi 5T And 32cc DBXL At The Dirt Oval Was It Worth All The Work? You Decided?

[@jeremystewart1785]

Loud big and fun ! Nice to have a place like that to run just a great hobby. Love how it attracts peoples attention never know who your gonna get interested in it.

What I have learned about the Leaking Fuel Cap is that it doesn’t have a “Rubber O Ring!” I have an old Sears Leaf Blower that is junk. I removed the Rubber O Ring from the gas cap and used a screwdriver to gently remove it and place it in the fuel cap for my LOSI DBXL 2.0. It worked perfectly, and I no longer have the same issue! The only other issue I will take care of is venting the gas cap so the fuel stays in regardless of the vehicle’s axis in flight! I am so in love with my own that I literally forgot to charge my battery after the 3rd run. That’s when I learned that a RUNAWAY IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO CATCH😳😱🤯🥵I never want that experience again🧐👍🏿

Well good to see you’re warming up the engine.Most itjuts just start revving from the get go!

Both soo so cool rc’s. I love Losi 💪♥️

[@rcOhio]

both are running good Earl! I tend to run my mixture a little fat on the 1/5s.. actually a lot fat 28:1. Prefer to see a little smoke. your performance won't be sacrificed contrary to popular KZbinrs!😂 The DBXL is doing great, totally worth the swap! Of course it will behave differently as it is much smaller and lighter than the T. 1/5 scales will always be more work but well worth it on my opinion! Take care and thanks for sharing!

[@HJESR]

That was awesome Earl

[@earlmoorhead5555]

I run one, you can’t truly tell if you don’t open it all the way for 4-20 seconds. You will definitely hear / feel the power loss on a straight with it wide open. Personally looking at a Bartolone motor for a bit more pop. 800+is hard to justify though 😅. Always run a bit rich , only helps the motor

Sounded nice! When I had my nitro rcs, the neighbors use to run me off or call the police! At that time there were no ordenets against gas or nitro rcs.

They both run real nice with the 32cc and new pipes. At least 3 teeth bigger on the 5t.

@@earlmoorhead5555 you could probably gear up dbxl too. Drifting a 1/5 more fun than jumping, for me that is.

I came back to this old video since i want to buy a 5T 2.0 again and hope to make one happen next year. I know you sold yours long ago but i still love your old truck and want to have one for myself. BTW do you still have the 32cc converted DBXL 1.0? Just wondering.

[@Rc_cars]

Losi 5t wonderful model. my dream, but so far there is only baja

[@RFHX2_6.0]

Hi Earl, great video as always. Just one thing I noticed I think you may have mistyped when you said 4oz for 40:1 ratio. 40:1 is actually 3.2oz to 1 gallon. An easy way to find out is to divide the ratio you want into 128 and tells you exactly how many oz you need. If you indeed did use 4oz per gallon that’s actually 32:1 ratio.

[@earlmoorhead5555]

I use the chart on the back of the bottle 😳

[@RFHX2_6.0]

@@earlmoorhead5555 That’s odd, maybe it was misprint? Or maybe you may have inadvertently jumped to a different number when looking it up? Or it’s possible it’s using something other than 1gallon for the ratio.

Yes idk why it say this I double checked as well 😳

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Nice 👍

[@RyanMcIntyre]

You won’t be smelling any nitro unless you mix the wrong fuel. These are standard two strokes, but you’ll still get the thrill of an amazing scent. My favorite fuels: VP C12, VP MS100, 100LL, methanol Favorite oils to mix: Castor 927, Benol, Formula K2, or Redline syn

[@SmithRCStudios]

Dude very nice run! Sounds nice to me as well. Wish that oval had a few jumps though lol. Great vid. Cheers

Right it used to have one jump but somehow it’s gone now guess I need to start digging it out 👍💨💨💨

[@doncaignou5706]

I have a 30.5 full mod in my five t... 22 pinion it has good speed and gives more traction on the bottom end

[@ReadySetRC]

Great bash! I started out liking the 5T more now I think I like the DBXL run more. I got to agree sounds like it is running a little more lean than the 5T.

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Definitely lighter so it’s faster for sure

[@24Kevint]

Seeing you in the 2 stroke arena makes me more compelled to get into this category. I'm looking at the new dbxl 2.0

Try the 8,000 clutch spring, it’ll make a big difference on your takeoff 👍

[@brotherskrillrc6042]

Those beasts will clean out those weeds in know time

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Yes 🤪

[@wallacengineering8096]

I'm pretty sure the sound difference is just from being in a different truck despite the same engine and pipe. Its a different chassis with different weight so the vibration against the chassis is different and therefore produces a different sound. Also the larger 5ive-T body probably dampens the pipe sound just a tiny bit.

[@earlmoorhead5555]

Pipe is different 😳

[@paulclancy2404]

Earl 4 oz to gallon is 32: 1 its what I've used for 30 years with dirtbikes and than most 2strokes its the safe middle ground and racing oils 25: 1 seemed too much oil and pain to mix 1oz oil per quart i just bought one those premix 40:1 cans i use in lawn equipment but really same engines 25:1 too much
