Losi Drake & Phend Edition Mini 8ight

Losi Drake Edition Mini 8ight

Losi’s nifty little Mini 8ight brushless buggy is now available as an Adam Drake or Dakotah Phend Edition kit. The 1/14th scale vehicle makes use of many design cues also found on the ‘full scale’ 8ight buggy and features 4WD, long A-arms, high-volume shock absorbers and adjustable turnbuckles. The buggy is powered by a Dynamite 4500kv brushless motor and comes with a waterproof speedo and SR200WP receiver as well as a Spektrum DX2L transmitter. The package is rounded out by the pre-decorated body shell and rear wing sporting Adam Drake’s or alternatively Dakotah Phend’s signature designs.

Team Losi Racing 22-series aluminium rear hubs

Designed for all 22-series vehicles such as the 22 buggy, 22T stadium and the 22SCT short course truck are these rear aluminium hub carriers from Team Losi Racing. They sport an updated design over the previous version and now feature four mounting positions for the outer camber rod ball stud instead of five.

Avid TLR 22 slotted battery bulkhead

Avid TLR 22 slotted battery bulkhead

The TLR 22 slotted battery bulkhead from Avid allows to run never before available battery locations on the 22 platform buggies and trucks. For racers running the shorty pack, the battery can be moved forward an additional +15mm versus a fixed position of +10mm with the TLR brand aluminium tray. This super-forward position makes the rear end more predictable as grip increases. The part comes CNC-machined from aluminium, sports laser etched markings, weights 7g and it fits any TLR 22, 22T, or 22 SCT.

MIP SCTE 2.0 Bypass1 team tuned pistons

MIP SCTE 2.0 Bypass team tuned pistons

MIP introduce their Bypass1 team tuned shock pistons set for the TLR SCTE 2.0 4WD short course truck. The kit includes pistons whose design is based on full-scale valve technology to allow for nearly infinite setup possibilities of shock compression and rebound thanks to special valves that control how the pistons moves through the shock fluid. The octagon shape of the piston reduces drag while keeping it guided in the shock housing. Included in the set are four #7 shock pistons, ‘fast’, ‘medium’, ‘slow’ and ‘gap’ valves as well as shims and locknuts. Additional pistons and a wider range of valves are available separately. The set fits all TLR SCTE 2.0, Losi SCTE 1.0 and MIP Pro4mance converted trucks.
