helll yeaaa that's a beast! it was just this winter a friend of mine showed up at our indoor flying event with a losi 8ight electric/truggy-converted buggy, AND IT WAS INSANE, i mean, holy shit! half throttle and it flew across the place, spinning around and acting all mentle! man, these little machine's are awesome
0:43 “Kv” refers to the constant velocity of a motor (not to be confused with “kV,” the abbreviation for kilovolt). It is measured by the number of revolutions per minute (rpm) that a motor turns when 1V (one volt) is applied with no load attached to that motor.
i love your videos, you have inspired me to do so much. since I found your channel I bought a 1:16 hsp troian and it is fast stock. then last week I bought a 7780kv motor and still waiting for it to come in, I cant wait. lol
@exoticg9 it uses electric current to slow the motor, its called a drag brake. You can still use a clutch system and a mechanical brake for less strain on the electronics (on the nitro cars, this is implemented via twin discs fore and aft of the center differential), but most people don't bother, the electric 'drag' brakes are good enough.
Nice video Medic! Just keep in mind that the KV rating refers to the rpm (revolutions per minute) the motor will turn on 1V (one Volt) with no load on the motor. KV or Kv is not to be confused with kV which means kilo-Volt (1000 Volt). Lower KV Rating = More Volts = More Torque but Lower top speed (Great for bigger vehicles). Higher KV Rating = More Amps = Less Torque but Higher top speed (Great for smaller vehicles).
hey @Djmedic and another thing. fyi Youre setup is amazing. all i run is tekin in my 1/8 and 1/10 scale. but what i did with my 1/8 kyosho is im running the lowest kv possible with the highest cell for the most efficenty which is the the 1350 T8 truggy motor (in my 1/8 buggy) with a 6s and the rx8 esc. Oh and sensored obviously. JUST PLEASE KEEP IN MIND WHAT I SAID. Love your work and vids. Keep it up!
I had one of those titanium servos in my losi mini t bruchless with 9400kv motor but it burnt up for some reason, that sucks but now i just have a stock one, btw 8-t is my fav rc truggy im hoping to get one next year!
By chance what rc car body is that you running on your Losi 8ight t xte ? Awesome truggy you got there mate!!! Finally got mine built and running it 46t spur 16t pinion
Nice Vid - makes me want truggy even more now. Really like the new variety of vids you been putting up - the crawler stuff is cool but I am more into speed and your Mad Bash vids and now Truggy stuff is great. Quality of ALL your videos top notch. What are you using to film & edit with? I saw a Mac in background of one of ur vids, curious what you using to shoot footage with.
Great stuff. I really like the Losi. One questIon, have you ever done a comparison between a Mamba Monster with Neu Motor and the Tekin? I am interested in your opinion.
Hey medic after watching this video i bought a team c T8te brushless truggy. Thanks to you medic. After building the kit. I took the truggy for the first time. There's one problem tho. The front right axle keeps popping out when going half throttle. Can u give me some suggustions to fix the problem.
Hows it going Medic. Awsome vids man keep it up! Well down to buisness, can you shed some light on the details of your 8T? i.e. diff fluids shock fluids whats been change to afgter market and if possible battery tray demensions? The reason im asking is I got a used 8T and Im getting everything i need to the same conversion, ive owned plenty of RCs in my past but this is my first truggy e-conversion so im doing all the research i can!
I remember watching a few year ago this video and thinking that someday i would like to own one of these. Just so happens i purchased a second hand nitro chassi.
@nath0987 having the battery where it is keeps the the truggie balanced for racing, you could bolt asome sort of wheelie bar on for bashing and high speed runs.
Hey man, I just picked up a Losi 8ight T 1.0 roller for $80 AUD which is roughly $55 USD. I’m hoping to put a MAX 8 combo with a 4274 2000 or 2200kv motor in it. Do you think this will go well on my 7500mah 100C 4S LiPo’s? Cheers from Australia!
hi medic! what do u mean in sensor less set up? i have a mbx6tr that i wanna run in electric but im new to this. iv never had an electric rc this will be my first and also i dont know if i should use mamba monster or tekin? please help mr medic!!!
hey medic when the last time u got losi 8ight out for a run ..I've been along time member of your channel ..thanks I'm a big fav. Medic look up Hank Perry Racesway its in spokane wa. valley I races there 6yr. losi Jr 2 truck mod need more losi
Hi RCMan! Hey thanks for the great comment! So glad to read that you enjoy the show.. and for so long, too! I actually gave this truck away to someone how needed a new rig.. I was happy to pass it on.. it makes me smile to think its out there now, getting used!
RCSparks Studio wow I didn't know you would reply to a 5 years ago video btw I wanna ask a is buying a wltoys truggy worth it? Or is there any other good truggys within a budget of sg currency 100 that is not so big? And also it's electric
Add some weight to the front to stop it from doing wheelies or loosen the slipper clutch if it has one. Or you could disconnect the shafts or dogbones going to the front wheels.
My Traxxas Brushless E-revo with 6s will give you a run for your money. I felt for you when it fliped. It's just a nasty feeling when that body scratches the asphalt. Traxxas makes a weelie bar for the E-revo since it's a basher, park runner. Unlike your truggy that is made for the rc track, like NorCal Hobbies where I drive my 1/8 scale buggy. Nice run.
I have a 45 spur on my losi eight t 1/8 scale what size pinion should I get I only want to run on 4s lipo not pushing the electrics to the max want a cool speedo and motor
A year after posting this, that truggy is still awesome. Next class I'm getting into is 1/8th electric truggy. Love your vids!
medic your videos are absolutely the best. I enjoy everyone of them.
helll yeaaa that's a beast! it was just this winter a friend of mine showed up at our indoor flying event with a losi 8ight electric/truggy-converted buggy, AND IT WAS INSANE, i mean, holy shit! half throttle and it flew across the place, spinning around and acting all mentle! man, these little machine's are awesome
Just insane man, not sure how i ever missed this video, love it
Losi + Tekin + MaxAmps + DJMedic = A match made in heaven. :D Super awesome truck medic, I'd like to get my hands on an E converted 8IGHT-T myself!

This is the best rc channel i've seen on youtube
oh yeah I love your truck, I am glad to see a 8ight T out there still. mostly just 2.0 now. I wish to make mine as reliable as yours. I hope.
im making a 1/5 scale project. on this truggy.. tons of money going on this .. but that's the life of a rc hobby. great,vids
i love your videos, you have inspired me to do so much. since I found your channel I bought a 1:16 hsp troian and it is fast stock. then last week I bought a 7780kv motor and still waiting for it to come in, I cant wait. lol
did the motor show up yet? lol
@@kaptkronik135 lmfaoo 9 years later it better have 😂😂😂
Getting mine today so excited!!
I just pick one losi 8ight and I love it man it was a nitro but it was covered to electric this is my first electric rc I am going crazy with it
Dude, the LOSI 8ight was a SICK SICK SICK TRUGGY!! It took a MASSIVE BEATING!
This makes me wanna finish my losi 8ight!
What the f$#k.....

dangggg you look like a TV host from discovery or something in the beginning. good job man! :)

Doing a Race Roller Buggy E conversion... Just waiting on the parts... I don't think I'll ever run it on 6s though, lol....... Sick Truggy!
Awesome Truggy! WOW!
Now that's I nice set up
i just converted a kyosho str to brushless and it's tons of fun on 4s........nervous about trying 6s, don't need to be shredding gears.
Great stuff. I really like the Losi. One questIon, have you ever done a comparison between a Mamba Monster with Neu Motor and the Tekin? I am interested in your opinion.

The front right axle keeps popping out when going half throttle. Can u give me some suggustions to fix the problem.
that would deffinetly walk on water, might need a wheelie bar tho! nice vid medic
very well built truck I run the same chassis but I used the castle running gear and it is nutty wish I could share a pic with you
I got an idea....... drift tires! that thing is a beast!, maybe a drag race with the madbash!
love your vids
Makes me want one then i remember it takes twice as much skill to run nitro if after that instant power!
Badass is the word I'd use!
thats awesome.Did it have disk brakes ? how is slows down ?
@Lipton756 You dont say! Hey Medic is that a 2.0 or 1.0? looks like a 1.0?
i wonder if the big wing at the rear might be increasing the power wheely problem, might be more useful at the front?
Nice work Medic now you just need take it somewhere and open it right up see what type of max speed it has :-)
Hows it going Medic. Awsome vids man keep it up!

I remember watching a few year ago this video and thinking that someday i would like to own one of these. Just so happens i purchased a second hand nitro chassi.
i have a team losi mini-t. it is set up for high speed dirt track racing and extreme stunts. if you owned it what would you do with it?
@nath0987 having the battery where it is keeps the the truggie balanced for racing, you could bolt asome sort of wheelie bar on for bashing and high speed runs.
hey mdic couldnt you put the batteries on the front that way its weighed down at the front therefore it wont wheelie as much?
a medic i was thinking of getting a Circuit 1/10 2WD RTR Stadium Truck: by ECX and i was wondering if you knew if they were good cars or not.
Hey man, I just picked up a Losi 8ight T 1.0 roller for $80 AUD which is roughly $55 USD. I’m hoping to put a MAX 8 combo with a 4274 2000 or 2200kv motor in it. Do you think this will go well on my 7500mah 100C 4S LiPo’s? Cheers from Australia!
legen- wait for it -dary
No, he says the esc can handle up to a 6s setup but he is running two 3s lipos to equal 6s.
If you want better control put heavier diff fluid in center and tape your tires did it with mine and it helps alot
That thing is amazzzing :O
Nice wheelies. What oil are you running in your center diff?
Any reason why you ran a buggy motor in a truggy? Also why did you mount the fan on top
of the esc
sick radio
hi medic! what do u mean in sensor less set up? i have a mbx6tr that i wanna run in electric but im new to this. iv never had an electric rc this will be my first and also i dont know if i should use mamba monster or tekin? please help mr medic!!!
One mad ass machine
is the same combo( motor and esc ) the yours mad basch exeed 1:8 ?
hey medic

hello medic!How much time did you play wth 6s lipo on it?
Add some weight to the front to stop it from doing wheelies or loosen the slipper clutch if it has one. Or you could disconnect the shafts or dogbones going to the front wheels.
great one.
@WSRebel2 A 2WD truggy's called a Stadium truck i believe
that thing is awsome
I like the video do u recon there can be more rc nitro buggy reviews
Plç
thats the speed im lookin for in an electric setup
is it yours or your buddy's i got the team associated rc8t factory team converted to electric
Wheely bars!!!!!!!!!!! Hahahaha
yes, he does
Hey mister we're did you get your john deer
is that what u would get out the box besides the battery packs?
TEKIN POWER!!!!!!!
im guessing you have upgraded the driveshafts
My Traxxas Brushless E-revo with 6s will give you a run for your money. I felt for you when it fliped. It's just a nasty feeling when that body scratches the asphalt.

one question bro??? Can you like put a weight in the front of it to make it not flip up like that so you can get more speed
What size of wheels. Are they 3.8 or 4.0?
dope truggy. any idea where i can find a body for a 1.0?
Ricardo 510rc ebay bro
Is that a buggy or truggy motor because it looks a little short
Whellie Bar should help, Also maybe weights in the front. that thing is FAST!
taht is one sweet truggy. how much for the conversion ?
Any weak spots? When hooning this car.
Holy moly guacamole!
a truggy from hell for sure...lol...wicked...
?the electronics are waterproof
@imserious2187 the electric system is like $380 + the truck it self would be around 600-800 bucks
I have a 45 spur on my losi eight t 1/8 scale what size pinion should I get I only want to run on 4s lipo not pushing the electrics to the max want a cool speedo and motor
Jon McDougal 16 for 4s and 14 for 6s cool all day
thanks
you can buy a nitro roller and some companies make e conversions, check amainhobbies for the conversions. just have to add your own electronics
what size pinion did you use in the video?
Hey medic why sensorless? just asking
very nice video , but haw many max speed ?
that has some massive tires haha
get the mad warrior nitro super fast and looks awesome
Whats the difference between sensored and sensorless motors
what size pinion were you running
....and that truck is about four years old, they came out with a new version in 2009.
