HorizonRC.com Preview- Team Losi Racing 8IGHT 2.0 (high res)

[cayuga82]

Is the Losi 8 2.0 roller w/ the Losi electric conversion kit the same as the Losi 8e 2.0 roller?

Thanks

[eazyone23]

What a Beast !!

[HAN2929]

is it available in ep ????

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@HAN2929 Yes, the LOSA0807 is the electric version of this chassis

[aussiebloke1914]

which one is better the losi 8ight 2.0 or ae rc8b ft for pure racing plz reply soon

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@aussiebloke1914 I haven't had a chance to drive the RC8B, sorry.

[papishow]

is there a plan for a kit version rather than a race roller?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@papishow There is not. They did a kit version of the original 8IGHT and honestly the Race Roller was far more popular.

[aussiebloke1914]

what is a very good race roller 1/8th scale buggy that is very fast on the track that compared to other cars it can obliterate them on the track plz reply

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@aussiebloke1914 If you want a Race Roller then the only option is the Losi 8IGHT. Pretty much everything else would either be a kit or an RTR.

I ment to say i am 12

[JPSlofts1]

Hey mate, can you do one on th losi 8ight 2.0 rtr version ?

I am 1 and I am saving up to get one, is the rtr version good for racing ?

And is it a fast car ?

Thanks

James

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@JPSlofts1 We already did one on the 2.0 RTR. Head on over to our channel or to the Horizon Hobby Website to check them out (YouTube won't allow me to post links, sorry.)

[papishow]

great video! - I am considering getting the RTR version. What hop ups would you recommend??

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@papishow Might want to get a set of springs, shock oil and sway bars to help get you dialed in.

[papishow]

@HorizonRCdotCom Thanks! What about the smart diff? Would you recommend? also, what engine would u recommend for the race roller?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@papishow I haven't used one personally so I can't recommend one way or another personally. For engines I've personally had a lot of success with the Dynamite Platinum Series engines. I actually have one in my L8IGHT Model right now and it sings. I know the Losi engines are really stout too, as is the Orion "Truhe" Edition.

[papishow]

@HorizonRCdotCom Great, thanks! What about the smart diff? Would you recommend? also, what engine would u recommend for the race roller?

[WarhawkLegend69]

hey does losi have the plan to make 8ight E 2.0 brushless R2R THANKS GUYS

[ilovetyping]

what is the differences between the race roller and the T 2.0?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

I don't understand your question. The 8IGHT is either a Race Roller or an RTR. The 8IGHT T is the truggy.

[ilovetyping]

ohh my bad,

sorry about that.

So the 8ight comes in RTR and a race roller?

So the race roller is the kit version?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

There is not "kit" per-se. The Race Roller comes fully assembled, you just need to put your running gear into it. Think of it as an ARR, or almost-ready-to-run.

[RCBuggy100]

You never see Traxxas making any good cars like this. LOSI RULES

[bbgunfun08]

its soo anoying i want a losi buggy but i dnt have the money :((((( im only 14

[traxxas441]

me 2. save ur money.... and guess what, ud have one :)

[ShalemH]

I wonder if you could make a buggy do wheelies?

[RCBuggy100]

you can with a brushless car. Just give it a more volt battery if you know what I mean

[PlayerH8terOfTheYear]

its fun until you snap a dogbone : )

[RCBuggy100]

yes, in 1 year i went threw 3 overheated motors and 6 pairs of dog bomes lol stuped car :(

[xGANGST3RxGAG3x]

i have one question on this buggy does the race roller and the 2.0 both have metal chassie braces

[HorizonRCdotCom]

They both have plastic braces. The aluminum braces are option parts.

[joshuadonofrio]

they look fabulous! lol

[HorizonRCdotCom]

Yeah, I've had my chops busted (legitimately) for that one since this was posted...

[Rcman425]

can you do one on the Hotbodies D8

[HorizonRCdotCom]

Don't have access to one, sorry.

[timbulb]

Horizon Hobby is the distributor for Team Losi products.

[WTF007GER]

i sooo want one

[crazeecritter]

Yes them changes are welcomed the 8 rtr that i have has blown 2 thr/brk serv,s and flogged out the top shock tower mounts front and rear also the carrier bearings for the diffs front and rear where trashed all this before the original tires (step pins) was worn out!!!WTF LOSI

[cookie1010112]

how much is it, cause i got an aftershock and a friend that is begging me constantly to drive the aftershock and its really annoying, and is it worth buying?

[PCXPBOY]

is the stuff compatable with the old losi 8ight?

[stevensons]

Theirs actually a lot different between the two. There area some things you are able to use. But most stuff you cant use.

[XPCompHelp]

when can i buy the race roller

[startazz]

Horizon i do like most of your videos but what really bugs me is when you keep repeating the same video like a few weeks down the road,so come on sort it out please as you have got loads of other r/c vechiles you could do videos about!so i'm sorry to say 1* lol.

[HorizonRCdotCom]

The reasons this particular video was redone were 2-fold. First there was an issue with the video itself. I am not going to go into details but the video, as it was, had to be re-uploaded. YouTube doesn't allow you to just replace a video file. Secondly, this video was a test to see if we could upload a larger file size, hence why there are 2 versions on the page now. Remember too this is a preview, with a review with running footage to come later when we get a production version of the car.

[startazz]

I was not talking about the two videos up now but more about this same video or one near enough the same as this was up a few weeks ago,plus this is not the first time i have watch a video of yours for it only to be changed very slightly and put up again,please don't take offence im only stating what i have seen.

[forrest225]

Well, I appreciate it because it insures every thing is accurate, also if there this nitpicky about there videos think about quality control!

[TechnexLOL]

Quality stuff from Horizon yet again!
