Default Losi 6ix by "targetingxmod"

So, i am now the prowd owner of a Losi 6ix....

Such a beauty of RC and body!

Here are the first photos of it...









-Not going to do much to it...since already got a behemoth motor and esc... only needs 1/5 GRP tyres with 18mm square adpater and a lot of leds on the body.

This is such a marvel of RC, in my modest opinion! Glad i found one and got one!

I thought about getting one, but since they are discontinued I didn't.

Never ran minor on 4s. I’d suggest start looking for the 1/5 wheel adapters.

And i am hunting down some body pins like these...





-Cause i do like to have just 3 to 4 seconds to remove body...and i do have the Axial Exo Terra / Losi Rock Rey / Vaterra Twin Hammers that way!! So this will be no exception! Just like any 1/8 buggy body!

I’m actually interested to hear how long the tires last on 4s. 6s has killed sets in as little as single run.

Since it was released, I’ve been suprised by how many are looking for a easy way to remove the body. When Losi designed it so the body doesn’t need to be removed

RC people are all the time changing diff fluid's from shocks or diff's. or whatever reason to having acess to internals... RC Companys keep insisting in releasing things that need to be unscrewed more then 10 times or 20 screws... come on!!

1/8 racing is 2 clips in 2 seconds and all acess to internals...so why keep toys closed!!?

I HATE that...and will rant to that till i die! And make any RC accessible like this:
-The Losi Rock Rey...

-The Vaterra Twin Hammers....

-The Axial Exo Terra....

I’ve had mine since day one. Thing I’ve needed to take the body off 5-6 times. Twice repairs, once for maintenance and other cause people wanted to see.

Will use stocks till i see no rubber on them!! lol

Allright more things done to it...

I got now permanent 1/5 tires


-Removed the stock hex! 20mm hex?


-Like more the 18mm square!


-PMT tyres were the choice!



And for the body...i found the way with clips on/off in 2 seconds, just like any 1/8 buggy!




-Removed a little of the rear post... no bid deal! Much easy now!
