allowing you to upgrade if you feel necessary

the losi rtr is a great package.



to the OP..
you will need a heat gun. i had to preheat the head on my 8ight to start for almost half a gallon. that losi 350 is super tight brand new.
after break in, you will probably need a new set of tires.
i am just into the 2nd gallon on mine and the tires are bald bald.
youll need 2 batteries for the starterbox. lipo preferred but im using nimh 4600's.. they work decent.
i ordered a 2nd starterbox belt.. i was afraid of possibly snapping mine and being stuck without a replacement for a week. but it hasnt broken. probably because my engine was 200 prior to starting
other than that, youll just need some tools which you probably have allrdy im guessing

i will be replacing my shock caps w/ alum but not untill the stock plastic ones go.
