Default Wickedgmc's Losi Comp Crawler

I like this truck alot, looks like someone took some time and thought about it alot. Mounting plates for all the electronics, wire holders to keep everything neat.

It seems to crawl pretty well, I did add some weight to the front wheels but other than that it is pretty much like I opened it 3 hours ago. I did irder some vanquish wheels so I will see how much better those are next week. I also am pretty happy with the wheels speed on a 2c lipo and the 18.5 Novak brushless motor. Was not missing any screws, everything had thread lock and both axels were greased well. I got number 000031. Thanks Losi

Will get a new lid painted sometime this week, I have an old lid that will work but a new trruck needs a new lid.

it will but the manual says to do it at lower speeds to reduce stress on all the parts involved, So yea it can be done but I would try not too. The dig it works like fricken butter! very little movement needed to engage or disengage. Very happy with it so far

To be honest, I haven't driven it enough to tell. It doesnt seem like theres a whole lot of tq though. I have to mess with the profile settings a bit more.

So far so good, finally got a chance to get a new lid on it. Nothing special but it works.

Still have had good luck with this truck, I have ran more battery packs threw it than I can remember and no temp issue, no cvd issue, no slipper issue and no drive line pin issues on my truck. My daughter has broken 2 axles, but she is only 6 and just keeps trucking. I set her radio so she cannot extend the endpoints anymore and she has not had an issue since. Rich got me some replacements last week for her truck and than today I had another newer pair here.

I have decided to go with the Pro-line Titus wheels for this truck and they should be here Monday/Tuesday.

Losi is ace's in my book
