hpi and the clones have a pretty good foot hold on the 1/5th market, for someone to come in 600 bucks higher than the hpi truck, as a new entry. i wish them luck, as i like losi. they need to rethink their pricing approach to this market.

+ 1 The price is wayyyyy to high

 

[baja82]

the price should go down by next year right

 

[CSR260]

no need to wait till next year the price in the uk is only £994.99! its
only £6 more than the new 5sc...

1600 isnt a bad price but for 1600 you could buy a brand new buit 5b. 4 bolt motor, rpm arms,dogbones and cups,etc.

 

[mooman007uk]

and then you'd have an expensive 2wd 5b

 

[jamesfouquet]

1600 ist expensive for a upgraded 5b plus there is not as much change driving wise with a 4wd, not to mention all the parasitic drag on a 4wd. thre is somthing to be said for both and they cant really be compared to each other

 

[Mike1970]

They're going to be popular thats for sure. Horizon hobbies in the UK brought one to the last round of the National and it went very well. It would go in the 'outlaw' class due to the size with things like MT's and anything with an engine over 26cc.

something tells me this 5th scale will hold its value big time i want one so bad but 1600usd

 

[jamesfouquet]

yes the look nice and I would like to have one too. finally a 4wd that look like its worth buying...I know there are some out there but they are alot more $$$

yeah i don't see the prices dropping anytime soon, plus ive checked the net for any used but nothings come u yet.

 

[jamesfouquet]

What I like the most is the rotation of the motor to put the drivetrain straitline I think this will greatly in crease the power to wheels.

its a very nice buggy, is there many spare parts available and are they as cheap as hpi spares this could be a deciding factor for people looking at the hpi shortcourse truck as another option.

i doubt any independent retailers are stocking up with losi 5ive spares just yet.
i read somewhere losi are many hop ups for it and spares can be brought from losi direct.
