Thinking of buying a LOsi xxx4

[jonathanvillada]

Hello guys im thinking of buying the LOSI XXX4 as it seems to be a very good car and the quality looks very good. I dont know much about RC Cars so i was wondering if i could get some advice.

Whats It like to maintain?

Whats it like on grass dirt and sand?

whats it like for jumps?

Would really be appreciated.

i would try and get hold of a xx4we instead as thats the car the team drivers still use

The remains of the team do both cars have there advatages. More important questions are:

Do you want to race?

Where are you racing?

Whats the track?

What are other drivers using at your local track? Its always good to be able to borrow a part of someone if you break one and dont have one.

I'll second that. I got one a while ago, after doing a year or so in my xxx frankenstein buggy (part cr, part kinwald), handles well, fun to drive, but I tend to break the plastic diff outdrives frequently, so would recommend upgrading them to the heavier metal ones, or not crashing in the first place. Also corners better with one way front diff. Also the little plate that is attathed to the rear diff cover, and holds the hinge pins in breaks alot. Again most people seem to swap for an alloy one, or don't crash.
