Default Worlds Lightest Losi DBXL

This Summer I will be building a Losi that weighs well under 20 pounds and is Brushless powered. It will have over 800 inch pounds to turn the ultra lite bead lock wheels. And have a custom paint job to boot. Transmission will be a 2 speed. Yes that's right a Transmission and it will be well under 20 pound with lipos on board. It will have Losi Big Bore shocks and more power and speed than is needed. It will have a super low center of gravity and use a Carbon Chassis the Diffs will be aluminum housings and the carriers that house the 4 spider gears will also be CNC aluminum so it will be one of the strongest 1/5 anything ever made!!!
So track use on or off road will be possible. With added sway bar.
I will be building kits to sell on ebay when it is done being built.

This is a good tell as to what your going to see. Some of the things that will be different is the twin lipo mounts and the bottom carbon plate that is a brace and lipo mounts. It will be using 6s motor and ESC. The wheels will be 1/5 scale beadlocks and the hex will be from HPI 24mm.
Custom bumpers and a Led lighting system. It will use Hitec 7954 twin servo's for the steering.
