Update: My local hobby store contacted their Horizon Hobby rep and got it squared away. We basically requested all necessary part numbers to build NEW rear shocks ground-up. Months after buying this buggy, my local hobby store had ~5 or so newly in stock. All of them have the same issue with +/- 4mm on rear shocks... We also got a pack of bearings to account for the one that was missing...

Seems a bit of poor qc on horizons part. Other have been complaining about the difs leaking out of the box as well. Im considering buying this kit but might have to give it some more thought now. Thanks for the info. I look forward to the update.

I would only recommend this RTR if building the kit is out of your price range. Too many issues out of the box, plus parts are hard to come by. A decent amount of parts are on backorder through horizon because this RTR is based on the old TLR kit...

I went with the Kyosho. For begginers the sensored motor won't make a difference

Seams like the Quality control on assembly is not up to the task yet. Did they accidently mount a rear shock on the front? Really sounds like the guys in the assembly line are not working like they should.

They did not. Both rear shocks are unique lengths (not similar to the front shaft size). Horizon sent me a new rear shock shaft. It was a completely different length than what is currently in BOTH rear shocks! But we will get this one squared away. Will update you guys.

Never take nothing for granted ,always check everything, even though it may you need to take the whole buggy apart and check everything, bolt by bolt screw by screw

100% agree! I think this will be my plan moving forward on anything RTR. I check my BNF planes in and out when new, no reason I shouldn't start doing the same on my RTR cars.

Our xe rtr was missing a rear outer bearing. Didn't expect it to be a common issue like this. Horizon made it right, though, like they always do. As for the shock, probably mixed up front and rear shafts during assembly. I'd hardly consider any of this catastrophic.

Interesting how you were also missing a bearing!

Sucks but I’d hardly call this catastrophic. About one in 3 RCs I buy I have to rebuild a shock or two. No big deal, usually the oil weight isn’t right for my driving style anyway. The XE should have 30wt rear and 35wt front IMHO anyway. The missing bearing is lame, but I’m sure they would make it right.

Catastrophic is a relative term, agreed. Definitely not the end of the world but I sure want to share my experience and visibility on the issue. Im messing around with weights. Taking a while to get my diff fluids dialed in for the high grip outdoor track.

I was contemplating buying this but i settled for the kyosho mp10e readyset
@smurfwithavette
@smurfwithavette Месяц назад
Ya know, the only thing I would be missing with that mp10e is the sensored motor. I think you have a good buy there 👍.

This isnt the real Losi 8ight anyways so it’s going to break
@smurfwithavette

Hmm. I think what your seeing here is stuff not assembled correctly from factory.

That is disappointing. My son contemplated about this losi rtr or Hobao vs2 rtr.

I would highly recommend the ARRMA 1/8 TLR Tuned TYPHON 6S. ARA8406

Not great experiences with Losi's RTR stuff. I haven't been impressed with the recent re-releases either.

Noob. You probably have a bad seal. Who ever build it you don’t assemble the bottom cartridge fully tight then insert the shock shaft. You leave it loose and add oil on the threads when passing it through the seals. Those are the cons of buying RTR.

Correct👍
