Losi 5ive-T Fifth-Scale Racing Truck

The 1:5 scale Losi 5ive-T off-road racing truck features a 4WD drivetrain based on the racing-winning 1:8 8ight platform. Equipped with a Spektrum telemetry receiver with installed sensors and quarter-scale servos. Large-bore threaded, aluminum shocks feature over-sized 7mm shock shafts designed to stand up to the punishment of 1:5 scale action. The threaded adjusters allow for fine-tuning of the ride you are looking to achieve. The chassis follows the design of the award winning 8ight that aims produce the best performance possible. The chassis plate is constructed of 5mm aircraft-grade aluminium and has been machined to save weight and add strength to provide extreme durability. The 5ive-T uses heat treated steel gears throughout the drivetrain that are the strongest and most durable type of gears available.

To ensure a long engine life and proper care, the air and fuel systems are served by a two-stage filtering systems. The air must pass through two different foam filters designed to block as much dust and debris as possible while still maintaining proper flow. The engine comes pre-installed with a high-volume muffler and features an electronic ignition, easy adjust carburettor with a built-in choke and fuel primmer.

A heavy-duty large-scale servo has the power to bring the 5ive-T to a stop thanks to the functionality of the bias adjustable dual-disc brakes.

 The electronics system uses a SR3300T receiver that is powered by Spektrum 2.4GHz DSM technology and has telemetry built in. The 5ive-T comes pre-wired with sensors for engine temperature, speed and receiver battery voltage. The 5ive-T is a Bind-N-Drive model so owners will need to purchase a suitable transmitter like a model from the Spektrum DX3 range.

A realistic cage provides added durability to the assembly absorbing impacts as well as being a solid base for the modular body. The unique design allows the body and cage to be removed with only four screws and four body clips in seconds. 

The four-piece body individual panels can be replaced should they get damaged, eliminating the need for purchasing an entire body.
