    Losi Mini B 1/16th scale

    As my dad used to say when we were a little younger, "Fight that urge!"! 🤣🤣 Are you just looking at that, or also considering smaller scale buggies? (I just can't resist...one look at my PP might tell you where I'm going with this!) Cool, I'll give it watch later!

    Losi Mini B 1/16th scale

    INCOMING!! Watch out! *ducks* Phew, that nearly took me out @Hammer Down, the nerve! 🤣🤣 It appears it took off that makeshift jump, must've been moving though, I don't know how you caught that much air in your living room, or how you got this shot! I just hope there wasn't anyone sitting on the...

    Losi Mini B 1/16th scale

    Ok, cool! Be sure to also spend a little time tuning the rear too!

    Losi Mini B 1/16th scale

    Yes, but only use that a little bit AFTER you adjust the suspension, do NOT use it solely, as you'll end up with un-even steering (your car will turn more to one side than the other)! No problem! All cars have some slop, that's just how the world works! Some cars have more, some have less. You...

    Losi Mini B 1/16th scale

    Yay! First drives are always exciting! Yes, I strongly recommend to spend 20-30 min and tune your front and rear camber and toe (if your rear has adjustable toe), as well as centralize your steering, and adjust your servo horn, linkage, ect. to get even and central steering, you'll thank me...

    Losi Mini B 1/16th scale

    Ok, good! lol Zip ties are the best! Seriously, you wouldn't think much of these usually small plastic cable ties, but they are just so useful! We bought a whole like 600p pack bundle of them on Amazon, assorted sizes, for I think under $13, to replace our old, much smaller zip tie stash! Look...

    Losi Mini B 1/16th scale

    Cool man! Nice! All that lot couldn't have been too cheap, the buggy looks even better than I expected! Be sure to fully clean and degrease the body shell before painting next time, you may also want to slightly ruff/scratch up the inside of the shell so the paint can stick better. Good job...

    Losi Mini B 1/16th scale

    That was actually the exact motor I looked at on Google after searching a motor and ESC combo for the Mini-B! The motor itself can't be that big. given an entire ESC has to be shoved in there too, albeit without the ESC case. I wonder if heat buildup would be an issue, and the motor would...

    Losi Mini B 1/16th scale

    A double motor setup in a 1/18 scale race buggy? How'd he even fit two motors in there? I think that's an example of really pushing the platofrm to the limits, I'd say stick with one motor. Going for the roller straight on is smart, like you said, many upgrade parts and you save some money by...

    Losi Mini B 1/16th scale

    I've heard good things about those smaller Losi rigs, and they seem good. They're supposedly built like scaled down race buggies/truggies, also after you get it, you may find it slow like many people, but that's actually because there is a hidden speed dial thing. Check out this video from...
