This is the Losi 1/18 Mini Rock Crawler Pro Race Roller. Designed as a competition ready 1.9 class rock crawler, the Mini Rock Crawler Pro Race Roller dominated the field as a prototype on its first trip to the rocks at the 2009 World Championships. The 1/18 Mini Rock Crawler Pro dominated the inaugural 1.9 Class and earned the World Champion title, driven by Losi Crawling team driver Jay Robinette. Being only a prototype at the time of the competition, some designed changes have been made since then making it even more of a true competitor.
Key Features:
- Carbon Fiber Twin Vertical Plate Chassis: Lightweight, Carbon Fiber TVP Chassis for reduced center of gravity with suspension mounting locations to help tune the chassis for the desired performance
- 4-Link Crawler Designed Suspension: New design, 4-Link Suspension provides precise/constant tire placement on the rocks throughout the entire range of suspension articulation.
- Carbon Fiber, Adjustable Shock Arms: These arms provide for multiple mounting locations allowing for fine suspension tuning while being lightweight yet durable for the demands or rock crawling.
- Near Zero Ackerman Steering Geometry: This steering geometry design features new spindles and steering drag link that provide a 1 foot tighter steering radius.
- Front CV Driveshafts: The front constant velocity drive shafts offer increased performance over the standard axle shaft/cup while maintaining superior durability.
- Threaded Aluminum Crawling Shocks: Threaded Hard Anodized aluminum Shock set with Titanium Nitride Shock shafts provide smooth and consistent shock dampening while the new shock cartridges feature a larger O-Ring to provide a better seal.
- One-Piece Rear Lock-out Hubs and Axel Shafts: 1-piece Rear Hub Lockouts reduce the number of parts on the rear axle to a single piece heavy duty rear axle for less maintenance and weight
- 1/101/18-scale Serve/Battery Mount: Front axle servo/battery mount allows for the flexibility to use either a 1/18 or a 1/10-scale servo for a lower center of gravity depending on application and preference or desired torque.
- True Beadlock Wheels: True 4-piece Beadlock Black Chrome wheels ensure a secure tire mounting to the rim for extreme tire stress and allows for simple tire swaps without glue.
- Blue Compound Mini Rock Claws: World Champion 1.9 blue compound Mini Rock Claws are included for the ultimate in traction with blue inserts.
- Mini Grappler Pro Body: The body has been "pinched and dove tailed" to proved clearance for the tires under articulation and optimized to roll back over onto it's wheels.
- Vertical Body Mounts: Vertical Body mounts minimize the crawler getting hung up on the rocks from the appending side body mounts.
