That engine hauls ass in mine. yours look similar in weight. You should be happy with it but if you aren’t buy some traffic cones and do more turning.

yeah my obr34v2 in my 5ive is plenty to make it do?? an make me grin?

 

[John Parks]

I said fekkkkk it. Dawson ported 46, still brand new. Has a new v3 clutch, all brand new. Fairly rare engine as he didnt do many 46cc. From my understanding, the 46 engines he ported were the most aggressive compared to the 71 engines he has done and the others.

Knew that was coming?

 

[John Parks]

I couldn't resist, have always wanted to try a dawson 46. This one is the same basic engine setup in a losi 5ive-t and its nuts.

So losi is sold ?

Have another one on the way though, will update when arrival comes lol. Kept my BRP setup, dual servo setup, and the 5ive-b radio tray. Sold it with stock servo and tray setup.

Playing musical losi's over there? ?

Went back to light weight and semi built. This one is really sharp looking, more losi 5ive-t look. Dawson 46gt will go in it.

On another not, sold my olimat baja Pipe, my bartolone end bleed losi pipe, and the bartolone 32 reed engine with the bart baja pipe, and the whole losi 5ive-t in 2 days ???.

Changes are coming to most of my rigs

That's the plan.

Well got it today, did some work on it today. Shocks need some love, servos all need adjusted but mostly done.

I love when they go together so easy lol.

 

[John Parks]

Few more pics of this beast. As you can see it isnt fully built, as I want it as light as possible. Hoping this female dog will wheelie.

 

[crucialRC]

Loving it??

Question John, with the ADI bellcrank it says the stock tierods need to be shortened. You didnt have to shorten the aftermarket(looks like IRP) ones you are using?

 

[Gamefan]

So nice! Love the color scheme you have there!

Yes I did have to shorten them. Close to another 5mm more than what it said to. Probably around 8mm I took off it
