Losi Updates RTR 1/8 8IGHT Nitro Buggy & Truggy With Spektrum Electronics

From Losi:

Losi RTR 1/8 8IGHT-T 4WD Nitro Truggy

If you are serious about becoming a competitive nitro truggy racer, this is the place to start. The Losi® 8IGHT-T Nitro Truggy RTR comes completely assembled and equipped with the brute power of a Dynamite® .28 nitro engine and the precise response that only a Spektrum™ SLT radio system can provide. You also get the benefit of a pre-set suspension that has the same geometry team drivers use on their 8IGHT-T truggies. As your skills progress and you gain more racing experience, you can gradually upgrade the vehicle’s performance with many of the 8IGHT-T option parts currently available.

Heavy-Duty Steering and Gen III Radio Tray

The vehicle comes equipped with a Spektrum™ ultra-torque metal-gear steering servo that maintains superb holding power and precise control on the roughest tracks. A Gen III radio tray prolongs steering and throttle servo life with features like ball-bearing linkages and more accurate linkage alignment. It resists wear and tear from chassis flex, too.

Brute Power Brute Power

A powerful Dynamite .28 nitro engine gives you all the grunt you need to be a front runner, right out of the box. It is equipped with a convenient pull-start so you don’t have to buy a starter box to get racing right away.

Metal-Gear Drivetrain and Sealed Differentials

A metal-gear drivetrain and sealed differentials give the truggy the durability it needs for long heats and rough conditions.

Center and Rear Dogbones

These eliminate the friction of a CV coupler and improve bump handling in the rear of the car.

Pre-Set Suspension Geometry

The suspension geometry is pre-set from the factory to match that used by professional team drivers so you can hit the track with confidence. And because it uses fixed-length turnbuckles and steering arms, you know it will remain consistent race to race.

Features:

• Your fast track to nitro truggy racing
• Spektrum SLT 3-Channel SLT Radio System
• Spektrum SLR300 Surface Receiver
• Spektrum™ S614 Waterproof Metal Gear Surface Servo, 23T
• 4mm 6061-T6 Aluminum Chassis Plate
