Carbon losi 5ive-t

[John Parks]

I figured since I did a carbon baja, I'd add a carbon 5ive-t. Going all carbon and titanium where possible. So far have a small start with parts, will be a slower build as I want My mega done first. Will likely be going bigbore, 55 supreme but not 100% sure yet.

Man your carbon 1/5 line is coming out amazing. Think you can pull off a carbon setup on your raminator would be sick

Parts are slowly rolling in, need hingepins and some other small bits and it will be a roller here soon. Have some custom carbon fiber turnbuckles coming which im most excited about.

This build is my favorite out of all your builds perfect wheel and tire selection. Got to put a nasty motor in this a torque monster

That’s the strongest the losi driveline can take right? Should be good Alx 63 would be nice to seen a lot of good vids on that motor plus I love the shape of the engine head

No they can go a bit bigger, they just get more and more unreliable. Thought about the 63 but I hate she shape of the head lol

Charcoal gray would be sick also, who makes those rims and tires?

I actually did think about gun metal, but nothing else is that color and probably look out of place

I was searching for some deep dish wheels for my beetle build in plastic but looks like brp is the only thing out there so I plan on going with those.

These are beast rc wheels. He also has them in baja 5b size. So wide rears, skinny fronts
