In this video I convert my losi 8ight to high voltage! I install a new high voltage throttle servo, sky rc switch, and a lipo battery. Enjoy the video!
Good stuff bro! I recommend just unplugging the lipo when your finished for the day, those switches still pull a little current from the battery even when off. Keep up the awesome work🏎💨💯👊👊💪💪👍👍
id put one more screw in the switch i ran same one and the tab with only one screw always broke from vibration or big jumps and hard landings put a new one on with 2 screws fixed the issue
I don’t run a voltage regulator since my servos are high voltage compatible. If you were running a high voltage battery on 6v servos than yes you’d need a voltage regular so you don’t burn out your servos.
So I just described because I'm looking at buying this car as my first Nitro return to the Hobby I do have a question a local trash not said this would be a horrible car for me to return to the Hobby and have to race I know it needs upgrade but is it really that bad of a car to start off with?
Hey at hobby king you can literally spend $30 get an awesome crimper, gold plated pins and plugs to repin, shorten servo wires, make extensions parts for a life time....crimper works for many styles JR, jst, balance plug hardware available too at hobby king. So much better than electrical tape or even heat shrink
Great video. That servo speed is fantastic. Nice job 👍🏻
Thanks 👍

Landon Blanchard my track hasn’t re opened yet but I would really like to get some track time in.
Hi there
Do you need voltage regulator for the savox high voltage servos while running 2s battery?
Thanks for your time

505 PRODUCTIONS this is a great vehicle to start off with. She handles great, part support is great and I have yet to brake this thing she’s a tank!
