Losi Mini 8ight 90+

[@TheRCMaster]

This has to be one of the best built rc cars of all time! 😳👍🙌 90 mph on a 1/14 scale after a quick bash! Brilliant work mate

[@mikeday62]

My mini-8 has aluminum shock bodies with titanium nitride shafts. I don't know if they make it faster, but it looks cool.

[@talltiger2790]

lol i wish the roads where i liver were that smooth!!!

[@Bash4Life]

Great job with the cute 8ight Mini Buggy!!!!

[@DustinLeopard1984]

Hey buddy I’m looking to building one of these and I’m interested in the combo

[@cernst29]

You did an amazing job

[@MrKingNica]

I need to know the set up please? I’m really considering buying that car but only if I can make it fly like yours.

[@ayougo]

King Nica E Revo spur gear mod (smallest one in the bag), Mamba max pro esc (default settings that came with it), Leopard 4700kv boat motor (Ill get the exact width and size and put it in description), 48 pitch 1/8 pinion (had to grind the motor shaft down from 4mm to 1/8 to fit pinion), a 4s 1800mah drone battery 75c to 95c and Zach racing foams (pretty much any foam tire will work but the Zachs are a tad taller and wider which makes the car very reactive and controllable. Ill provide more specifics un the description. The diff cases are aluminum to add weight (weight helps keep this car down) and shimmed the steering for precise control. I still drive this car and it has not had a break. I run it on 3s to bash.

@@ayougo Damn that is impressive !!!!!. The most I got my Traxxas E Revo 1/16 th scale mini e Revo up to on two 3S Traxxas 25C lipos 1400 mAh each with a parallel connector added on top of them running 2800 mAh total on 3S with stock talon wheels and without the body lid shell on top I did 59.1 mph. But once again that was on a really good day. It normally won't do 58-59 mph and usually it's been sitting at 53-55 mph. I may be losing motor performance due to wear and tear but just months to a year ago I was averaging 56-57 mph. Once again only able to put up early to mid 50's or alittle more on 3S due to the parallel connector adding extra mph on top of what it originally supposed to do lol. It's a small 8 turn vxl velinion 380 sized can that's 4000 KV. I have 2 of these vxl velininion mini e Revo truggies and they are a blast !!!!!!. Stock talon wheels hold up and work great on these little truggies man !!!!. These speeds are only achievable with 48 pitch 31 pinion and a 45 spur gear setup once again with the vxl 1/16 scale motor and vxl-3m mini esc setup. Originally out the box on a single 3S and stock 28/50 gears I was averaging 46-47 mph but then got lucky using an additional 3S in parallel and shot up to 49.7 mph and 50-51 moh after. Now I bought a steel 48 pitch mini 39 tooth spur off Amazon and i am thinking of doing either 31/39 or 32/39 possibly even 33/39 if a 32-33 pinion would fit. That's an easy 63-68 mph on 3S using two 3S lipos in parallel lol. Let me know what you think and if I may need foam wheels or a better rubber compound then the stock talon e revo wheels.

[@MrNiteriders1]

Nice run man. She is def fast👍👍

[@MrKingNica]

That’s so impressive

[@MrSprintcat]

[@ayougo]

[@dirtroadwendigo]

[@cristianmarcomonton797]

[@timp7007]

I know this is old but if you’re out there you have to tell me how your diffs are so smooth. Mine are so noisy.

[@ayougo]

I use black grease in them and change the fluid every 20 or so packs. I also shim them so they dont bind.

[@richardsydnor6844]

What motor an esc and what battery

[@damiansamuell5907]

Richard sydnor it castle system

[@TargetingXmod_RC]

What kv is that motor? And what gearing are you using...pinion & spur. I see a 4s lipos :) Nice video!

[@ayougo]

The motor is 4700Kv. Spur is a 45 tooth and the pinion is a 30 tooth.

[@TargetingXmod_RC]

I use the same gearing & 45T spur from Traxxas merv? How is the heat on that 4700kv motor on 4s? Can empty the pack or just for a few runs...? Great, thanks!

[@ayougo]

You can drain the pack. You need good batteries though.

[@treypannell4470]

[@maxxpatrolrc2901]

Nice bro, what brand motor?

[@rc-fd5bf]

how did you manage to put a 30t pinion in ?.the biggest I could fit is a 25.

[@ayougo]

I'm using the smallest revo spur I could find and modified a big block motor mount I purchased online.

[@MrKingNica]

Inigo can you provide a link to the big block for this car?

[@diegohiroshi6764]

My friend, you have problems in diff? I'm with this problem, did you modify anything?

[@litohenry9839]

What gearing are you running?

[@MrKingNica]

So the AVC holds up even with all that power?

[@ayougo]

King Nica No AVC. I use futaba gear.

[@cffps7198]

How many spur gears have you went through

[@ayougo]

Ninja player gaming Just one over the course of a year. I changed pinions to reduce the speed and that actually was harder on the spur.

[@hellebust]

what tires do you use?

[@ayougo]

Robin Hellebust Zach racing foams from edam hobby usa

[@hellebust]
