About the 8IGHT-XE


Sensored Brushless Power

The 8IGHT-XE Buggy boasts several standout features one of which is the smooth and precise sensored brushless power system. This system delivers impressive performance, allowing the buggy to rocket out of turns and achieve impressive speed on a variety of terrains. Whether you're navigating tight corners or powering through straightaways, the sensored brushless motor provides the responsiveness and power needed to stay competitive on the track.

Race Ready Electronics

Losi knows how important your electronics can be especially in a racing environment. That is why they have equipped the 8IGHT-XE Buggy with the components you'll need to challenge your competition. The inclusion of a Spektrum DX3 2.4GHz Smart DSMR transmitter ensures reliable control and connectivity, essential for precision driving during intense races. With a Spektrum S665 waterproof digital steering servo and Spektrum SR315 receiver onboard, the 8IGHT-XE delivers responsive steering and reliable signal reception, allowing drivers to maintain control even in challenging racing conditions.

Durable Drivetrain

The aluminum chassis and full-metal driveline of the 8IGHT-XE contribute to its durability and strength on the track. Designed to withstand the rigors of off-road racing, these components provide a solid foundation for optimal performance. The aluminum shock towers, front and rear swaybars enhance stability and handling, allowing drivers to tackle jumps and uneven terrain with confidence. This robust construction not only enhances the buggy's performance but also decreases maintenance, making the 8IGHT-XE a reliable choice for serious racers looking to push their limits!

Losi 8IGHT-XE 1/8 4WD Electric Brushless RTR Buggy
This buggy runs great! Recently got back into RC after a good 10yr+ hiatus. I've been running a Tekno SCT at my local dirt track and was a little skeptical about how this RTR would perform. It's exceeded expectations! Electronics are super smooth and don't even feel the need to swap out the servo as the S665 it comes with is pretty fast. Build looks good and only issue was the center diff was leaking right out of the box. Still works fine and i'll be taking it apart to see what the issue is. Even the stock tires hooked up pretty well at my local track which is hard packed dirt/sand and don't plan on replacing them. Took a few bad tumbles with no issues and no broken parts. Would highly recommend this buggy for people of all skill levels.

Losi 8IGHT-XE 1/8 4WD Electric Brushless RTR Buggy
This car has been fantastic and an easy way to get into or back into club racing as was the case for me. I love the fact that the X/E 2.0 kit parts are completely compatible with this car. This is a great way to start off easy and upgrade parts over time. As with all rtr cars, make certain to check all fluids, check all screws and loctite all necessary setscrews. All in all this is a fantastic way to introduce people to 1/8 scale ebuggy racing without breaking the bank.

Losi 8IGHT-XE 1/8 4WD Electric Brushless RTR Buggy
Everything was shipped as described, I’m super happy that Losi has this RTR option for beginners like myself that are new to the 8th scale scene.

Unfortunately while trying to set my shocks at a different position, I noticed that there were a silver screw and black screw, one on each side, I removed the black one counter clockwise to remove it, but while trying to remove the silver one, it was really tough to remove and it stripped on me, which seem weird to me.

So being the case, I noticed a silver screw in the front as well, just out of curiosity I turned it clockwise and it started to unscrew.

The only question is, what is rhe reason for two different types of screws and thread patterns??

Thank you. ??
