Another One For The Team Losi Vintage Collection. Unboxing And Repair. 

Keep going with the team losi racing collection, I am a fan of this Cars,

Really digging those Losi's! I had a xxt, xxx kinwald and an xxxs back in the day. I still think the xxx was one of the best looking buggies made.

Kit build race cars are my favorite. I built a Team Losi JRX PRO SE when I was 14 and still stands as one of my greatest childhood memories, I’m really looking forward to this series. 👍🏼

It came with a spectrum servo. I have a couple of the stadium trucks kits I built.

Looks so sweet wish I could find one with the same radio.

Have a good New Years too.

The most important Team Losi car they made was the XX4. That's one you should really be looking for. I still race my TLR22 in rear motor configuration, I've got the esc tucked under the mount you've got yours on, it still leaves room to run a shorty battery, I run the Nosram super shorty batteries in mine.

Did Everyone Have A Good Christmas?.

dats a rare losi nice losi, hermano drink a "oregano" tea every now and then and u will keep all defenses up!

Thanks Gav for another great year of RC movies, so happy to find your channel ( actually not too long after you started up). Keep it up, cannot wait to see what's coming in the new year.

That transmitter has a deadman's trigger

ive still got 2 original 22s. the rear motor gearcases are impossible to find. stormer hobbies still has a good stock of parts and they might be one of the last to have them

happy new year

I just found my old Team Losi RC at my Mom's house. I found several motors and gears too. I had an entire toolbox of parts I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️ I think I'm going to get a new battery and get it going again but since it's vintage I don't know if I should

Losi power! Every time I pick up a classic Losi...I want to kick myself for not doing it sooner. Happy New Year!

Nice find there Gav, this could be a slippery slope of hunting vintage losi’s now to match the rc10 collection 😁

Have a happy and prosperous new year

the bluebell servo is a budget aftermarket servo, I would expect them to have used a spectrum servo.

Very nice buy and repair.

That’s a great looking little buggy

Nice 22! that'd be a very fun driver.

Great Christmas i have a b6.1 it will be vintage by the time i build it lol so busy at woek this past year will build it in 23

Happy New Year Gavin! Nice buggy, it cleaned up well.

Happy new year

Great job looks nice..hope you all have a great new year 👍👍🤩🏅

Lol I have a few new losi but if want to talk vintage I have a jrx pro roller in a glass box unbroken. Won a lot of races back in day with that

Nice find even if it’s a RTR. Odds are someone probably got frustrated with it I’d say they probably broke a front arm and probably a shock tower or something related to it because no way were those included in the original kit and typical I wanna go faster so let’s buy way to much motor I think we’ve all been there on that one 😂😂😂😂 Happy New Year’s 🎉

Love the content, it’s good to see different makers, and love the older style bodies, I’m sure the new front cabs will grow on me though. I am partial to a KYOSHO electric inferno neo.

Wow, what a great looking buggy! And £50-60 for a 13.5t brushless motor isn't that bad, the Hobbywing motors are really good. Excellent video as always!!

Tho rear motor the xxx is a liitle newer than the era i mostly raced, still good content tho. sent you a pm on some tyres i have nip.

An interesting choice!.. Its got to be said that TLR's 22 buggy was not particularly popular amongst racers (in the UK at least) when it first came out - but it still is a cool buggy & represents Team Losi's move into the new era (& possibly their first ground-up new design for a 1/10th 2wd buggy under Horizon Hobbies ownership?) The fact that the comp-spec kit could be built up as rear or mid motored was a cool feature. Durango's DEX210 of the same era could also be built up either way - & also did an RTR version..... we had a pair as hire cars at my local buggy club. Strange to think that these cars are now starting to be considered 'collectable' (in my mind these are still new models!) There seems to be a bit of an increased shift towards competition models in your collection - not sure if this is deliberate? But wondered what is it about them that appeals to you?

I've got a couple older looking Losi chassis, if your interested. The one with the weird rear suspension and another generic chassis.

Thats a fine example to have in your collection, as it was new generation car for losi. The sliding steering rack was Garbage. keep it clean , bellcrank style was much better. Pretty sure that esc had a timing advance feature, but you had to install a smaller pinion.

It is great to see some more Losi love! But stop beating around the bush and get a proper OG 5 link JRX2 next!

Loved my old team losi xxx , had the kinwald edition, annoying as hell putting it together as the graphite chassis meant you kept rounding the heads off the tiny hex bolts (I'm sure I wasn't the only one that happened to) but that with a 6.5 brushless was just awesome , best 2wd buggy ever made.

Original servo would of been a spectrum one

Nice buggy, I think the 22 had a sliding steering rack arrangement up front, not sure. That servo was actually one of the better servos of its time (early 00's I think). I've only ever managed to get one Bluebird servo, it's quite good. Can never find them.

Glad To $ee you joined the team now it's time to get a team Losi jacket good quality materials huh not a Traxxas but a good pedigree I see you from the horizon in conclusion my comment is discontinued

Wish I could find a xx for my collection

I have one of these cars. It is my only Team Losi buggy. It drives really good. Much like an old school RC10 but faster. I have not driven it in years. I did remove the Specktrum radio gear. I gave the transmitter and receiver to a friend and it failed. I put in a Futaba radio system. I did leave the original servo and also the original motor. The steering servo is a Specktrum servo. I do not not know which servo it is but it seems to work well. You now have your answer if that servo is the right servo. I also bought many Losi metal hop-up parts for my car. Mine is the black one, but I also bought a blue body because I thought it looked better. I never mounted the blue body. Thoughts?

Hey, I'm stumped after building a schumi top cat classic. Once buzzing from adding all the gear and finally getting to the point of running it for the first time all I found was a slipping belt with about 5% drive. Clearly belt isnt tight enough. I've tried to tighten the belt by adjusting the adjustable round shims on the side of the gear box but that doesnt seem to do anything at all and not one bit remotely tighter than previously. Nothing at all happens. I took it to my local rc / hobby shop who still seemed stumped but did say they were really only into petrol cars so not so much into elec stuff. Any advise would be very much appreciated if at all possible as I'm dying to get it up and running and start reliving my youth 😁

Another awesome looking buggy. Where do you find these nuggets?! I keep looking on eBay and the other selling sites, but have no luck!! 🤷🏻‍♂️ Happy New Year, to you and yours, Gavin.👍🏻

That particular Losi motor had a tendancy to overheat even if slightly over-geared.

i had one of these but l always stayed away from the rtr versions of rc cars

Gav are you going to get some losi vintage shortcourse and stadium trucks

Hey are you just doing Losi race cars or are you doing crawlers too? If you are doing crawlers, I’ve got an MRC Pro and Losi Comp Crawler you might be interested in adding to the collection.

Gavin. You sound like a cold. Rest dude!

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks the cab-forward buggies are ugly as hell.

Are you interested in a losi xxxscb and a xxxsct with the same livery, Bully dog. Both are in good shape, only raced a couple of times mostly on carpet.email me if you are interested.both are stock. STEVE PATE
