Just did my first run! She runs great! Thanks for the help. I cant wait to open her up. The manual says 1/4 throttle the first 25 minutes but nothing after that. So after the first take should I just take it to the field at WOT?! or take it easy the first couple tanks? Cant wait to slap an aftermarket exhaust on this bad boy!


And it took 3 pages to figure it out lol ? thanks again!

That break in is too short imo. I'd go with this one
I trust them because they know their stuff and build and port these Engines!n

So.. it's been about 8 years since I touched a 1/5 scale and my last one was a Baja knock off from roven. Received my losi 5ive today in the mail unboxed it swapped out the spektrum with my futaba RX, and installed a kill switch, mixed up the fuel filled her up, pulled the starter several times with the choke down..... like more than 5 times maybe.. placed the choke up pulled and now I cant even pull the starter anymore. So I removed the spark plug and absolutely no fuel came out and I was still unable to pull the starter.. what did I do wrong? And how do I fix this issue? Did I break it already?! Thanks.

It sounds like when you installed the kill switch, you may have lost the gap between the coil and fly wheel. The coil is a magnet and may be touching the fly wheel locking up everything. That happen to meet once upon a time and is a simple fix.
Good Luck.
