Hello!
After a 33 year break between playing with RC cars i decided to get a new car. Looking at all the different models/platforms that the average Joe can get hold of today i settled on a Team Losi Racing 5 Buggy race kit. There were a few reasons for getting the 5B. If you build it your self its easier to fix, you know that all the nuts bolts ect are tight (very important for high speed machines). Losi genrally has a good reputation for quality RC cars, and finally being able to build a race spec car at a VERY VERY! good price how could i not get the obvious choice the 5B. I know its not the perfect car.. like every rc car out there it has a few issues, but with the collective knowledge of the WWW all the issues that we face in the rc hobby can be looked at and overcome.
Because i have not got every part for the build as yet ie radio/electronics ill star my build thread with the front axle diff and suspension bag B
at the end of bag B this is the diagram that you would find in the manual
if any body has any comments, tips or tricks as i get on please don't hesitate.
