Losi Night Crawler SE 4WD RTR rock crawler

Coming soon from Losi is the Night Crawler SE 4WD ready-to-run rock crawler. It is built on the proven Losi Night Crawler heritage, but offers more lights and a new Exoskeleton cage. The cage and body provide impressive scale details without compromising performance or durability. Additional front and rear rock lights will make it easier to see obstacles in the path and brighter LED light strips will further light the way. Other features include front and rear solid axles with HD 21T worm drives, all-metal CV front axle and centre driveshafts as well as an ultra-low gear ratio direct drive transmission. The suspension compartment features 4” adjustable aluminium shock absorbers, 4-link suspension and the power is put to the ground using 3-piece 1.9” beadlock chrome wheels and Interco TSL SX Swamper tyres. The package is rounded out by a Dynamite 60A speed controller and a 35T 540-class brushed motor, Spektrum 9kg-cm waterproof metal gear servo as well as a Spektrum STX2 transmitter. The truck is available with a green or blue pre-decorated body shell and it will become available in March.

Exotek Rock Rey HD gearbox set & servo arm

Exotek have introduced a heavy duty front aluminium gearbox set and a heavy duty clamping servo arm for the Losi Baja and Rock Rey trucks. Starting with the gearbox set, the all-machined alloy gearbox delivers extra durability and precision gear mesh and alignment – the alloy construction insures the drive shaft gear maintains 100 percent teeth engagement against the diff gear to eliminate the problem of worn gear teeth and poor gear mesh.
