TLR 8ight-T E 3.0 electric truggy kit
Horizon Hobby have introduced the Team Losi Racing 8ight-T E 3.0 1/8th scale electric truggy kit. The latest incarnation of TLR’s popular 8ight-T platform features an all-new chassis that has been widened and balanced specifically for electric power. It is milled from lightweight, 4mm 7075-T6 aluminium and has been hard anodised for maximum durability. The chassis gives racers multiple ESC and battery mounting locations which makes it possible to easily relocate components when tuning the vehicle’s balance for varying track conditions. Specific suspension components such as springs, shock pistons and sway bars have also been updated to better complement electric power systems. Included in the 3.0 kit are also new CNC-machined aluminium shock towers, tapered shock springs for improved clearance and less chances of spring cup ejection during extreme impacts. The kit is rounded out by a special electric version bodyshell which shares many of the same lines with the nitro version body but extends the rear stabilisation fin so that it meets the rear of the cab. The adjustable rear wing includes a .250 and .500 inch spacer that let the wing move back for extra stability on high-speed tracks.
