Team Associated has once again taken the time to revise one of their off-road performers. The RC10B44.1 has been given an all new carbon-fiber chassis that has been designed with all the latest LiPo offerings in mind. The new chassis provides more ground clearance for the rough stuff. Also new is a revised front shock tower that’s now made with [...]
We showed you the early video of the XXX-SCT that Losi uploaded yesterday, and now today they have officially released the details. The XXX-SCT is going to be available as a RTR and Bind-n-Drive. It’s power will come from Losi’s LM32K 550 motor by way of the LiPo ready, water resistant ESC. The shocks are Losi’s old bottom loading style, [...]
So it looks like Losi has finally heard the calls for a high performance short course truck based on the XXX-T chassis. There’s no further info about the XXX-SCT available yet, just the video posted to Losi’s YouTube channel, but this is sure to turn some heads. When we get more info, we’ll pass it on to you, [...]
The fine folks at OFNA have another new vehicle for us to gawk at. The Ultra GTP 2e is a 1/8 scale, brushless, sedan. Like their previous release, this one is also an 80% complete roller, requiring all electronics and a paint job on the clear body to be complete. Some of the features of note include [...]
This one somehow slipped passed our radar last month. The team at OFNA has come up with an all new 1/10 scale, 4wd truggy for our truggy driving enjoyment. The Hyper 10TT is built for brushless and LiPo power. The drive train is all steel and has three oil filled differentials to get all that horsepower to the ground without [...]

Team Associated has a brand new ride. The RC10TC6 Factory Team edition is an all new design that has been prepared for brushless power and LiPo batteries right out of the box. The whole thing has been given a makeover but a few of the significant changes include moving the motor 13mm in toward the centerline of the chassis, lowering [...]
We showed you the video a couple days ago and now Losi has put up the official stats on their web site. I’m speaking, of course, about the new Mini SCT.

Well it appears our corporate policy of willful defiance of The Man has forced Losi to show their hand. Only a day after our posting of the ad revealing the Mini Rock Crawler Pro, Losi has gone and officially announced it. We’ve already outlined some of the new features yesterday, but now we know what some of the other [...]

The truck requires 4 AAA batteries and the small pistol [...]
Kyosho has had the micro on-road scene pretty well locked up since the very beginnings of the class. Losi, it seems, is keen to lock up the micro off-road scene. They’ve done a fairly good job of offering performance minded vehicles in tiny packages. Another job that Losi has been fairly good at is taking one platform [...]
So the Losi Strike is considered the Dodo bird of the short course class. We all know that they need to release a new chassis to be competitive in the class. A cottage industry has popped up around converting the XXX-T to short course trucks and we all thought that Losi would follow that lead and release a [...]
LRP had something for the nitro guys, now something for the electric runners. Two new competition grade ESCs are on the block.
